Yes, it's round 12 of our monthly series... that means it's the 1 year anniversary of running this mod!!  TIME: 0830 Pacific, April 21. TRACK: Northamptonshire. TRACK NOTES: Silverstone. What is there to say about it. A classic. We're using the original ISI version because I love how efficiently they design tracks. Great visuals, high framerates. DOWNLOAD: Northamptonshire (track was included with full retail rFactor version) www.box.com/s/z27nf4yaltlpbrrv08peRACE LENGTH: 90 minutes 2 x 30 min timed event. QUALIFICATION: LR isn't working so we'll do a 10 minute private quali for enduro, practice times will be quali if we run a sprint race. Server's choice. RACE CONDITIONS: Day RUNOFFS: Not tested FUEL: 2x TIRES: 1x |

If you drop it to a sprint...I say do 2 sprints (or 3).  |

Yeah, I'll join in on this on if its some kinda sprint format (one 30min or multi races if shorter). I always skip the >60min races - bring on the sprints with the intense opening laps and not long drawn out ordeals
Cheers

This race falls on my B-day, so you guys should let me lead at least one lap. I pick the last one to save on confusion.
Good thing this is a morning race, as soon as we're done, the grill, steaks, cooler and myself take up residence on the back patio.

OK, sprint seems popular. 2 x 30 min sprints it is. Run one or run both if you have time. See you all there.
If everyone wants to treat this as a fun race then we won't even worry about quali and just go with what the server picks for a grid.

Sorry guys, my folks decided they are coming over in the morning for my Birthday. If it wasn't for the wife bitching about it being rude, I would have raced anyway  |

Hehe. So it took me 12 months...but I finally got a win in TCM! No longer the bridesmaid. The Sierra reigned supreme at Silverstone. It was a shame Dale discoed in Race 2, we had a hell of a battle going from Lap 2 all the way up until his disco 20 minutes in.  Then there was Sheldon...creaping up to the lead battle. Great fun guys. Thanks for coming out. |

Congrats to Chris on the double win. The wrong tire choice in Race 1 then PC problems in Race 2 meant bad news for me Race 2 was shaping up to be an epic battle too! |
