Seems I have the honour of choosing the next track, a bit like I-Spy

I've really whimped out here, I've just done a league race at the Glen so am zoned in on this track

I did a 1:05:32 in qualifying trim last night using the Eagle, and I have been quicker in the Lotus. I expect the fastest time to be a 1:04 (and not by me)

Good luck & get practicing

Nice choice of track Kernel.

If we are going to do a race at some point, I've just been introduced to a great bit of software by some of the guys in one of the leagues I run that allows voice conversations during the race.

It acts like a CB essentially, so you all "tune in" to a particular channel (passworded if necessary) and everyone who connects that channel can talk and listen. Check out the

I haven't tried either GameVoice or RogerWilco. I would expect it to interfere with slow links. However many people limit their modem to 28K improve GPL online. This implies a good conection and we could race and talk, the later in a very limited way.

Perhaps Christian, as you have the ADSL, you would consider hosting a race. We could try either voice package and if they don't work forget about them.

As to the task in hand, I have a 1:05.05 lap, again using the Lotus. Just need to find that 0.06 secs to get into the 4's

OK...

I personally dislike this track, but at least it's short! lol

Thought I better put this up before it's obliterated...

Spent VERY little time on this circuit and just did a 1:04.73 which is about a second quicker than my previous best.. so it'll all go to help the GPLRankings!

kernel

Simon, I knew you would be able to go quicker, Rouen has always been by best track relatively speaking.

I will have another go, I'm desperate to get into the 4's. Done 3 laps now quicker than 1.05.1 so it should be possible.

If anyone is around later, I'll fire up my GPL server, say about 8:45pm. I'll mention scoobynet in the server details so you can spot it. I can only support 5 or 6 peeps so if it gets busy and I need to keep riff-raff out I'll password protect it with kernel.

Hope some of you will be able to pop in for a race.

Cheers kernel

What's going on then chaps?

Any takers? I've had anothe quick go and can't beat that time so far. Will try again later though if I get time.

Christian_Driver

I'm sorry but I'm not going to get any chance to have a go this week (not that expected to get below 1.05 anyway) as I'm going for a blast down through Wales tomorrow and then on to Don Palmer's course at Milbrook on Saturday. Unfortunately I am not driving, but going along as an interested passenger in a Evo 6 RSX

I can probably host a race for up to about 8 of us at some point next week (possibly Wednesday), if there are any takers?

Cheers,

Christian

Well Simon, I'm not going to beat you this week I have at last beaten the 1:05 But my 1:04.74 can't beat you. So Close but so Far

I see no one turned up for a practice on Tuesday night Still I had fun thrashing all comers. Sadly I can't make wednesday nights, out and about.

As it's so close Simon I will have another go tomorrow, my lap was not clean but I know I will struggle to beat it.

Don't know why but I couldn't get the HREF to work on the previous post

Managed the first time but not now. Someone give me a pointer to what I need to do for this to work reliably, please.

Hi Chaps

Kernel!! How close!?!?!?! My god!

I will give it a proper go at some point over the weekend then just in-case.

Sorry about Tueday I ended up with a huge amount of work to do what with denial of service attacks, etc

Would definitely be up for a race though whenever anyone is going off to vroc.

You could ICQ me if like on 98132099 or email simon@scoobynet.co.uk

Hi...

OK... I've confused myself some how...

I think my best is ACTUALLY 1:04.74 no .73..

I'm not sure how I've done this, but my best lap does appear to be 1:04.74

sorry for the confusion.

This also means that we are neck and neck kernel.

SDB

In fact!!... kernel.. your time is a few thousandths quicker than mine!!! (DAMN! )

if you haven't already got it, get spygirl and overlay our two laps they are staggeringly close all the way through.

re href...
HTML is not allowed on ScoobyNet so I am sure it wouldn't have worked on the previous thread.. but...

if you simply type a url, it will convert it anyway.

alternatively, you can use UBB code

Cheers

Simon

kernel

LOL, but you really shouldn't make up times to get to the top of the tree

I will get a copy of Spygirl and watch the 2 together, sounds great fun.

Good luck trying to go quicker I will also have another go but don't feel I have much, if anything left.

Simon,

I've been trying to download your lap to view the side by side replay using SpyGirl but I just get an error, not found.

Please can you check it out.

Cheers Kernel

SDB

oops!

sorry.. as part of my making up times to try to win!! .. I cocked up the name of the file also...
try changing the last 3 to a 4 and it will work fine.. so the link should be..

SDB

PS.

I spent over an hour and a half trying to beet that bloody time!!

I got TWO laps at 104.75!!! but just couldn't beat it.

Gonna have to admit defeat again!! DAMN!

You better pick the next track..

but PLEASE not monza!

Cheers

Kinda busy last week, so I only managed one session at the Glen. Couldn't get under the 1:05 barrier, so my best was a 1:05.43, recorded as
