Qually:

Race:

 

[AndrexUK]

BRING ON THE RAIN!

(please stay wet!)

 

[Vanders]

BRING ON THE RAIN!

(please stay wet!)

Are you deciding the settings for these races!?

 

[JKay14]

a lot of poor weather we've been having these last few weeks! what are the odds lol

 

[AndrexUK]

WE (ACC cods, not just me ) had decided the weather, before I had even decided on the car.
And I hadn't even driven any cars in the wet at that point, so was unaware of how good the Lexus was in the rain...
I nearly switched out, because we cant get a custom livery for it.

And 2 of the 3 lobbies last night had dry race, so clearly praying works

 

[seppel165]

BRING ON THE RAIN!

(please stay wet!)

No RAIN. *praying even harder*

 

[Cleeuwn]

Sadly I'll be missing out on this race since I will be on holiday for a week.

 

[JKay14]

In

 

[Michael Loosen]

I'll be missing out this time unfortunately :'-( @AndrexUK @Def @Shooter80

 

[seppel165]

I might not make it as well. I got a new rig yesterday and wasn't able to finish the assembly. I will jump in with no practice if I am able to finish the rig onto a driveable point.

@AndrexUK @Def

 

[Shooter80]

That's ok @seppel165 we can just make do with pictures of your new rig

Sweet, not seen the Hama before...my Sim-Lab GT1 EVO is on its way

It is a regional german supplier. I bought it was cheaper then the Simlab one as it basically is the same.

 

[fläsk]

Can't make the race tonight

 

[A. Durrant]

Ahhh, good stuff, looks similar monies to SimLab tbh, and also not importable into UK so i was kinda stuck with only a few options.

Its terribly off topic, but I'm curious what you are gaining from the new rig compared to your old one?

TIP & TRICKS

the pitstop strategy is still glitched, so if you want to change tyres compound, the pressures you carefully prepared before the race will be completely gone.

In this example, I started the race in dry tyres and I prepared the pitstop strategy 5 as WET tyres with saved initial pressures around 26-27 PSI, but when it started raining and O selected the strategy in MFD, it had initial pressures around 22 PSI.

Instead of correcting the pressure (which would have required like 200 clicks on my wheel rim buttons) i switched to strategy 4, which had DRY tyres, and changed them to WET. The pressures resetted to 27.3/27.2 so i was only few clicks away from the pressures i really wanted.

 

[Jarmo]

When we talk about changing tyres.. I have problem to check the box in MFD to change tyres, anyone knows what button it should be? I have my stick binded (if I press) to "Enter" and works in other places. I guess it is the same button? Doesn't work. Thanks
