*** OcUK VR Sim Racing Thread [2024 Season] ***

To be fair @ShiWarrior there was a lot of slowing down for others to catch up which made the racing very close..

And some questionable tactics (like bumper cars at times!) which also made it fun given the slowing down when people went off..

Highly doubt that you will get people slowing down in the race.. and I hope none of the on purpose shenanigans..

hopefully will be really close fun racing, but probably not like it was last night

Especially when @glenimp617 will start on pole as always

 

[ShiWarrior]

Unless I come off then it's not close to me either lol

 

[danswan]

After last night, If we can get the numbers, imola is going to be one if our best fun races of the season

Yeah sorry I've not been participating. Abroad on hols right now but planning to try to get my setup working properly upon my return, with the goal of trying to finish a race before the season ends hah.

So, what's the difference? You'll start on pole anyway

I can't be that lucky

How's that going to work?

If it's 12 lap race, if you set it to 1 lap, you will be on poll for the 12 laps main race

Unless we do a 13 lap race, 1 lap formation lap, but you set it as a rolling start otherwise it will be no lights to watch for etc

No, we do 1 lap race and then on the next race the grid should be random......we hope.

Although we might change yet to a 13 lap and get in position based on our points.

Will have to test later in the week.

It's just to stop me being on pole all the time.

 

[ShiWarrior]

Ah yes. Now I see it, I assume it won't go back to lobby then ?

 

[ShiWarrior]

Well if your at the back on 1 lap race then that counts as the race

 

[glenimp617]

Ah yes. Now I see it, I assume it won't go back to lobby then ?

If we decide to do a 1 lap, hopefully I can do it on my own and then set things up as normal.

Well see what works best.

hopefully i will do better tonight than all the practice on this circuit over the past 4 weeks lol

 

[danswan]

Balls. Was planning to make this one, but likely won't be back from the pub. Maybe you'll see me careering around if I can get back for 8.
