how do u guys handle it?

I've got my cockpit sitting behind my desk and my monitor on a swivel monitor arm so I can have it facing me on the desk when using the PC normally, or just swing it around behind the desk and in front of the cockpit when driving.

They definitely increased the tyre smoke. In a test session earlierI did some circlework on the straight and then pit for new tyres, the smoke was still drifting across another part of the track 3 laps later

Optimus... have made you a session admin as well. 'cause I don't know what the hell I am doing

[marty_s13]

awesome. I'm in!

[Rainey]

At risk of sounding selfish, any chance of making it later? Like after 10pm? I gotta go out after work.

I have to say I have been very impressed by the professionalism this week 13. Both races I've had have been incident free and no one has done anything stupid. I've had worst races in official SM!

Maybe people are just more relaxed knowing there is nothing to lose?

A bit later would be better for me as well

[marty_s13]

im good any time.

on a side note. I just went to recalibrate my G27 wheel in game and when I was done it was reverse? I did this a few times and finally had to set invert axis in the logitech profiler like I did with my load cell brake mod. Anyone experience this before?

[Optimus.]

Oh man as if I know what I'm doing! Thanks for the vote of confidence though. Guess I'd better be there.

[Lincoln_blitz]

if most people are happy to move it a little later I am okay with that. Same format then with a 9.30 start? So race wont be underway till 10.20 or so.

I think you can set the maximum fuel in hosted races now to force pitstops without forcing people to use a fixed set. Wish they would bring in success ballast too.

I'm starting to warm to the Caddy, having it run at one of my favorite tracks helped. I still don't like the way the tyres give up completely mid corner and the nervousness under braking. I think being a relatively heavy car it brings out some of the flaws or the tyre model more than the others.

Will try to make it home in time for the race start at least!

Hmm we should have a compulsory pit stop!!! That would be awesome

[Lincoln_blitz]

Alright, I have set the start now for 9.30pm AEST.

I didnt see any fuel limitation options in the session setup. Will have another look tonight if I get home in time.

EDIT - okay just saw the screenshot for fuel limit. Will see if I can set it up. Any ideas on what percentage to force 1 stop at Wat Glen Cup over 10laps? How many litres does the CTS hold?

Does anyone else get a big FF jolt when they drop clutch from a standing start in the Caddy? It's very strange!
