Does anyone have a good setup for this track? Just so I can compare. I'm pretty comfortable with my setup but then again I don't know that much about setting a car up :g:

I'm not convinced that ANY setup will keep you out of the barriers for 19 laps! I'm just using my Aviano one, :D

So no setups then? :) Oh well, then I'll just use the one I've got.

Another perfect race :)

 Didn't practice until 40 mins before the race (to busy with the Cricket :yahoo:)

 Had a quick fiddle with a setup and pulled out a PB in Qual.

 Got a good start and pulled away at nearly a second a lap.  Had a couple of scary moments when my computer decided to throw a wobbly and drop to 1 FPS.  Luckily it was on the straight so i just lifted off and waited for it to go back to normal, which it did in about 3 seconds both times.

 Wasn't sure about the fuel for this one, but crossed the finish line with 0.3 left.

 Thanks to the backmarkers for being very aware and letting me bye with no hassle.

 Congrats to Zoltan for his P2 and Oliver for his first podium.

Ok, its not a race2play report, but its a race report so ill post it here :sideways:

The Radiator Springs guys hosted an evening of four full mode races in the F2000. One on each of the Aviano layouts.  I was representing Finnglish Racing and was shocked (and rather scared :rolleyes:) to find it was a full server of Italians, bar one Frenchman. :D

 I took pole and won all four races, not without some incidents though.  I span early on in a couple of the races and ended up having some absolutely fantastic battles.  Really hard close racing, very intense. It gave me a feeling that easily matched anything i experienced in iRacing..just superb!:yahoo:

 Next time they hold an event i would recommend it to any of you that enjoy the winged single seaters.  Fantastic stuff.  Now i need to rest, over two hours of that cant be good for the heart:D   :byebye:

Just a reminder that signups for the upcoming race at Falkenberg next week are now open.

I'm getting back surgery on Tuesday and I'll be in the hospital for the rest of the week but I hope I'll be able to do this race. Of course, that depends on what the doc says. If he says I should avoid sitting up for longer periods of time then I'll have no choice but to resign :sad:

What back surgery? Whatever happens, you take it easy. You don't mess with backs. :sad:

Yeah good luck with that, obs. :)

R2P are still using 1.03, right? (No changes since last we talked about it I presume..?)

I've been suffering from tremendous back pains for nearly a year now, so last month I went to get a scan at the hospital and it turns out I've got a bad hernia. I went to a specialist and he said there's no other option than to surgically remove it so... tuesday I go in.

It'll be my first surgery so I'll probably get very nervous as Tuesday draws nearer :) I just hope that I'll be rid of the pain. And yeah, if the doc says to take it easy for 6 weeks then that's what I'll do, no doubt about it. I've heard of people not taking that advice and within a couple of months they screwed their backs up again. I don't want to experience that so I'll be taking care of my back from now on, yes sir :flirty:

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