17 May 2012: Sepang - Yesterday at 6:49 pm

I did a lot of testing for this race, I'm happy my time were back to the top (ok, still 1 second from the top drivers!) not having anymore the gear change time deficit...
I did my PB in qualify, I was happy in 5th position...The start was good, but in T2 I went a bit off the track, I've to thanks the two drivers who avoid me...I was stable in 4th position trying not to overstress the tires, then at T1 I had an accident with Matt, I tough it was his fault, but it was finally a race accident, with maybe some lag there...Then esc to repair, and I tried to push as much as I could to gain some position...this made me do a couple of spin. I finish in 11th position, and I'm not happy for that...I hope to be more lucky the next race...

See you in track

Luca, can you please delete my best time 1.01.5xx? I did it in race simulation, not considering I was going out from the pit...sorry for that...My current PB is then 1.01.8xx

Thanks a lot

Marco, why do you have to use that so much high caster? It led just to the steering reaction, the car will not behave in different way by chancing that parameter...

Tour of Italy - Mon Apr 30, 2012 9:06 pm

Clive, I would miss also Bologna, which is not very nice to see (also Genova is not that special)...and instead of seeing Pisa (there's just the tower, nothing more!), why don't you go to Siena? It is much much better then Pisa, and there are a lot of lovely country and small town around there (Montalcino, Pienza, you can't miss that places!!!)...
10 days it is quite a short time to go all around there, but you can do that (without Bologna and Genova)...
I go almost all the week-end in Venice (my girlfriend is from there), so maybe we can meet over there!!! Keep in touch!

p.s. Do not rent a Fiat Bravo unless you want to spend half of the travel wainting for the mechanich!!! :-)

What do you think about joining the GVB server all together something around 20.45 to verify the FPS status, and then to decide the proper graphic resolution for the race? I guess most of the people will have problem here...I've switched to 1024x768 resolution (such a pity in a 16:9 screen), and my FPS were stable around 200 with some drop to 130-140, but I was alone in track....

Thanks, ciao!

It was a really nice race yesterday...

I have got the "A" group just one hour before the start of the race...with the 15° time in the rank...that means 14 people were faster then me. Then I qualify 15° 0.5s far away from my pb...

I had FPS issue, and very high ping, so I decide to start from the pit and to stay away from other car until the situation was better. After 8-9 laps my ping went back to normal, and everything was fine. My first pit stop was perfect, I managed to get to p10, but my pc froze for a while when doing my second pit stop...I lost 10 seconds, I got to the track still in P10 and I let Marteen to lap me...I was convinced the car following him had also to lap me, then I let it pass, when I just realize he was Ed Ward which was behind me...I tried to keep Clive behind me for a while, but after a nice and a very fair fighting he passed me...so finally I finishes in p12, but the race was good, all drivers were correct and fair, I didn't do a single mistake in all the race, I just was not fast enough...

Thanks to all for the nice race, special grats to Marteen, Mika and Luca

Andrea....a me non funziona il replay...cavoli...come faccio?

Mi sa che devo reinstallare tutto...mi si incasina qualcosa? Tipo perdite licenze e cosi o va via tutto liscio? Se ti fornissi un jpeg del log del ranking dove non si registrano cut potrebbe andare?

Cmq provero' prima a risolvere il problema dei replay e via...

Ciao Martin, if you use autoclutch and simple gear (or just autoclutch), the car take a while to change gear: when you press the gear-up button, the system release the accelerator, change gear, and put it again to the maximum...If you use manual clutch you can change gear without using the clutch pedal (if I'm not wrong), and the gear change doesn't take any time....this means the gear changing are quite faster...You can feel the difference if you are following a car with no autoclutch, you can see it moving far away from you everytime you change gear....

The KS2 car has not this problem, as the real car has no clutch pedal, so you can drive with autoclutch and simple gear off without problem even if you have just two pedals...

I guess the lap time loss for a 1800 on doninghton is around 1-1.5s, which is quite a lot...But I haven't done any test on it...If someone can do that for us :-) I would be very happy!!!

I've a question...I have no H gear, so no clutch pedal...that means I've to use autoclutch, and maybe simple gear (the difference between using or not simple gear is very little in terms of lap time)...This means to loose something around 1-1.5s per lap :-(

I've heard in the past there is some way to disingage the autoclutch also not having the cluthc pedal...Anyone knows somthing more about that? Can I use maybe a button as clucht pedal, or so?

Thanks for helping me!



By the way, I'm very happy we have started official events, I feel completly different emotion by doing it!!!

Thanks to rsr team to organize a such amazing championship, and to all the drivers involved in the races! :-)

Very Happy see you soon in track!!!

Guys...I've seen the race point system right now...and this is completely crazy!
Sorry for being so frank....but there is no championsip in the world having this system...why aren't we using the F1 points distribution system? It doesn't make sense that one people that is in p3 get 42 points, and one that is in p15 take 30...from p3 to p15 a difference of just one point seem to be too little. Moreover it is impossible that a people in B group goes in A because if it is in p1 he get the 30points (the same as the last one in group A)...

I would prefer a system which help people being costant in the results, but this is just my personal view...

Replay issue - Thu Apr 12, 2012 8:20 am

Good morning to all...
I cannot use anymore the replay in nkpro. If I press "R" nothing happen, if I try to save a replay, it is saved with the right name, but when I open it, it always show me the Ftaget Mugello replay saved some weeks ago...Does anyone got the same issue?
Any suggestion how to fix it?

Thanks a lot!

Same problem here Marco...yesterday I tried the Ftarget at Magny Course, and I was not able to drive it anymore, lapping 5s slower then Juan, when normally I can get quite close to his time!!! After one hour of driving I was a bit faster but still far away from doing decent laps!!!
