Surfers Paradise - 11/05/23 - Round 8
number of laps: 49
In racing week I'll be not at home.
Don't forget: In case you have a problem and leave the server...please go to track and drive minimal some metres after that.
I post the server ini here. You don't need install it, but in case you fell better than:

So good luck for all. See you at Silverstone...

Is the server not configured to record lap times? I've spent a few sessions online but the main page isn't showing any activity. (Of course my lap times could have been so pathetic they weren't considered worth showing).

Unfortunately I'm going to be a "no show" at this one.
My local bowls team have had to re arrange a cup match and the new date clashes with the HIES race.
Shame as I really like this track, I'm not quick but it has a great flow to it.

I did some laps this morning, but having a crappy week so far, and nor feeling fit enough to do the race...have a good one!

Robert I hope you are getting well soon!
After some time of absence I catched Surfers Paradise. And to be honest, I didn´t expect a win. I expected André and Rainer in front, but -yeah - I take it! I had not one problem during the entire session, did about 10 laps of adapting gears and calculating fuel from a Brabham-setup and went in absolutely relaxed. This track has to be driven as smooth as possible - I managed to let the car roll and didn´t break to hard. These conditions are my most preferred - maybe thats why..
Gratulations Rainer & Björn for podium!

Grats Tim and Rainer,
well done finishers, bad luck DNFs.
I hope you are getting well soon Robert!
The start worked well and the pace was good in the continuation after the first laps. After a few laps I was out on the terrain. Back on the track afterwards had a nice fight with Seb. Too bad you got a spin when braking in an overtaking attempt.
Furthermore, I did a real spin that I lost the most on. Later I drove over the tire borders when I discovered in Pribluda that I was suddenly in third position.
After pit stop had a nice fight with Tago. We had a different pit stop strategy. Not easy to overtake on the straight with Brabham but got an opportunity in the first tight corner.
Install: I did my first race at 2560x1440 pixels as an experiment. Have always preferred 1920x1080 for several reasons (Pribluda text size made it a little more difficult).
Nice rounds on this course. The car was mostly stable and balanced but had some tire overheating which is common in general as well. A bit of lugging also happened here, but not dramatically.
Thanks to everyone for the race, administration, and programming.
See you at Silverstone.
