No, no change. :sideways: Still, we're only his customers!

I think it's only logical that R2P keeps using 1.03 to complete the running series :sideways: It wouldn't make sense to change to a different (beta) version in the middle of a series, IMO. I, for one, would be fairly annoyed that I had to download a new version with the risk of it not running as good as the current one - or even not at all due to some bug -, and then having to get familiar with the subtle changes in handling etc... to be able to finish a series that's past halfway :flirty:

..but the fact is it's far better than before. Runs like a dream, handles sublimely, strong netcode, collisions much better.

 I'm glad GPC have decided to run the new season with the beta.  Did some full grid testing tonight and the racing was fantastic! :yahoo:  I love 1.1 beta 2!

 I can see the reasons for not changing mid season mind you.

Voila, and that was my point You just don't change versions mid-season.

Also, I'm sure it runs beautifully for you but I've read plenty of posts from people who either can't get it to run at all, or report that it doesn't run as good as 1.03, or they've got some bug or other. That's normal, obviously, as it is a Beta, so that's to be expected. But if I were Tim McArthur that would be a reason for me to hold off on changing versions until most of the bugs are sorted out. With the turnout for NKP races on R2P being low as it is, you don't wanna risk turning people off because they're having problems with a newer version.

R2P will undoubtly adopt v1.1, I'm sure. Just be patient :flirty:

Still, I'd really love to do this race. Oh well, we'll see...

Good luck and just take it easy, we will ââ,¬Ëœhold the fortââ,¬â,,¢...

There were just as many people with just as many bugs in every version since day one!

That's normal, obviously, as it is a Beta

What's with this beta stuff? It's a development of nKP. Or did Stefano throw away everything he's done up to now and start again? This is like the mistake Scawen made by calling LFS Alpha.

I seem to recall 10 entries being the top and 8 an average. A few of those didn't bother to show. Now, with a much, much better version available with none of the phantom wreckers, how many do you suppose will turn up? Finnglish will take the top five places. I will be dead last as usual but fifth!

R2P will undoubtly adopt v1.1, I'm sure. Just be patient :flirty:

Don't you peer over your glasses at me!

Moose's Race2Play Year/season summary.


Well, glad that season is over Luckily the new season kicks straight off this weekend, so there's no time for me to mope over what has just passed.  

 Loosing two titles in two weeks was gutting to say the least despite the fact I'd only driven half the season in each class. Coupled with my worst moment in sim racing (stalling on the grid in the final race of the season) it hasn't been my favorite few weeks in racing, but it's onwards and upwards time.

Our first year at R2P has been pretty bloody good when you look at it.

We've competed in 6 series, winning the team title in 5 of them. Katsu and I have picked up a drivers title each.
If i hadn't had my time off sim racing I'm sure we'd have taken all 6 team titles and i could have had another drivers title.

Katsu's pace has got better and better as the season progressed, which is great for me as it gives me more motivation to try harder. Ron got to the point of enjoying winged single seaters and Jarkko finally didn't have a lonely race! :lol: . It's all looking good for the future.

Lets make 2010 even better. Hopefully we'll have Obsolum and Gnomie come back to some netKar racing this year as well.
It looks like netKar at R2P has really taken off now.  Bigger grids and generally much better driving standards are making it a lot better place to race, and a good stable version of netKar has helped  so it should be a great year to come for us netKar lovers.

The action kicks off with 3 days of racing in a row from Saturday. (which is a bit much imo) I'll be doing plenty of practice this week to make sure I'm up to speed in all three cars.
