F$#@ ... couldn't get on server this week, thought temporarily issue ... but multiplayer still doesn't do a thing. Connecting....... an error occured... please try again.
Reinstalling ACC at the moment, to see if that solves the issue...and if so, hope to get all settings correct in time and get me some sort of setup. Or option 2, skip Kyalami, watch F1 and get drunk :dead:
WTF ... it was a firewall issue.... grrrrr. Got pop up after reinstall... damn...
Wife got ill ... so need to do grocery shopping and cook... meaning I will skip this race and go for f1 + beer tonight .... sad story

Sorry I disconnected but I forgot to put the index back in 90hz mode for the race. Stutterfest garnished with understeer of doom on the wet setup.

I'm happy about my performance tonight.
Did 70+ minutes on the same set of tires, and my pace wasn't dropping off at the end. :stig:
Also, with my early pit, I had to do the overtaking on the track, and it for just so much fun!

What a race!!!
I have never before saw this track, so i thought just to participate, and to try not to hit anyone. 3 days before race, i said to go and try track, to learn corners. But when I did couple of laps, I saw that this track is a great for me. With it's ups and downs, and sweeping corners just was a love at first sight. For my luck, preset setups was great for me, just with a click lowered antiroll bar and a bit higher tyre pressures. As public voting said that there will be dry race, I practiced mostly that scenario and I was abou 1:52 low per lap (racing conditions). I was totally OK with that time.
Yeatsreday I dropped in practice server and there was raining.... Hm... That was suspicious. So I loaded wet setup from menu, just get pressures up, and did 10 laps... I saw that grip was totally fine in driving line, so I thought that was it, if rain will be from start (in any case).

Qually was bad for me as always I was 10th.
Race... first lap got pushed in crowd a bit from behind and spin..... to a last position.
Then magic happened.... Racing was awesome, so much battles, with everyone that I crossed on my path to finish 4th at the end. Just awesome.


If anyone have replay file can you share it? Thanx.

Well I wasn't shocked when the rain arrived for the race. I have had plenty of time on wet tracks recently so I felt relatively well prepared. Increase the pressures all round and a bit of extra rear wing. Temps were good for the whole race, 30psi. I just didn't have much confidence in the BMW. Spent much of the first half of the race chasing @Josh and got by when he made a mistake. My tyres went off after the first half but that was okay for my strategy and pitted at around 40 minutes to go. Was being chased down fast by @Dama_The_Crow at that point. When I rejoined and they both pitted it didn't take long for them to catch me and pass. I didn't fight it as it would only slow us all up. Tried to keep it tidy (apart from really struggling at Mineshaft with understeer) and happy to finish in P6.

Dry race for the final round? Doubt it!
