We gather at 18:00 GMT / 19:00 BST since the clocks went forward on Sunday

ok thanks

…and don’t forget we’ve decided to use the GT Revival cars again instead of the BT44s. Only one server is up now.

Dimitris - yes, we gather at 7PM for 30 minutes before the first race. We don’t do a separate Qualy session any more - so your time in that final practice session will determine your first-race grid. The races are 10 minutes long - so probably 6 or 7 laps depending on the speed and luck of the leader. We generally keep racing with the last race starting at about 8:30 PM - reverse grid each race.

and it is 7,00 pm GMT?

How long is todays race@Thruxton?

OK, Ed. I've just tried it again now the track is rubbered in and it feels much better. Let's race GTRs again then...
avatar
The sale price of the pack has ended, I hope everyone bought it while it was cheap.

I think the GTRs feel great at Thruxton. Here's a real E Type onboard - quite a bit slower than the GTRs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tyOpaNA2v9c

Thanks, Myles

Tuesday: Thruxton from the UK Trackpack. I’ve loaded two servers. My preference is for the Brabham BT44s as they have the speed to suit the circuit and see to handle ok (the bumps re a bit much for some other fast stuff). The backup is the GTRs on the other server - but I feel they aren’t quick enough for the circuit and will feel a bit flat…

I prefer this for meaningful discussions - Discord gets very fragmented and messy...
avatar
Replied to the thread. Do you prefer Discord? Here we are in control of the platform.

How’re we getting on with the GTEs at Portimao by the way? Temporary thread started in the LMU community section (by Stu) below - might move to SCB discord in future if there’s a suitable zone.

With the likely exception of John Laing, I think everyone has/will-have the pack. Jonathan was nudged into saying he’d probably buy it. Plan A right now is to run Croft this week. *Probably* still GTR but I’ve a feeling it might be just a tad too fast/open for them. In any case, we’ll probably BOP the fleet by excluding the Galaxy/Cobra (or maybe run only them!). It’ll be nice to be able to use these high-quality tracks in the future anyway!

Tell em it's on sale.
avatar
We’ll see - probably time to move on from the GTR pack but I just didn’t have time this week to check anything else out. We’ll take a roll call of UK Track Pack owners this evening.

I just bought the 2 British tracks I didn't have and yes it would be good to race them on Tuesdays. Maybe Thruxton next?
