[Stokemon]

What time on the 15th?

 

[Ben Watkinson]

Practice #3 / 3rd January 2020 @ 19:00 UTC
> Not much to say, continue working on the setups and get driving time.

Practice #4 / 5th January 2020 @ 19:00 UTC
> Maybe doing a little test race of 1 hour + introduction of the endurance stint planner

One more thing: We got invited from GermanSimRacing for a test race at Daytona. It will be on the 15th January (Wednesday) and will be around 2 hours (testing a double stint). There will be couple fast repairs and a special "no content" policy, means you are not allowed to stream and/or upload any content to YouTube. The focus should be 100% on the practice.

I need to know, as soon as possible, who is interested because I need to tell them with how many people we will show up. I wouldn't miss this chance guys

I'll make both and interested in the GSR test session

That's really simple an nothing to worry about. If you are in the car, just press the escape button (or map it on your wheel), to leave the car. If you are the one who wants to enter, then you need to wait until the other driver left it and then you can press the usual green button with "RACE" on it

@grobi0815 don't undersestimate how scary that feels when you are used to PCars where a single wrong button click (with no confirm SMS ) ruins your race. @Jonno It is worth doing to sastify yourself though. IRacing is much more robust to this sort of stuff. If you pit and press the remove driver session...the car just sits there waiting for the next driver. You can even leave the session when not racing and return (I used this last year to switch between VR and a 2D screen when not racing).

It's also worth understanding how to join the correct team session, or how to register for a team session correctly. There are some nasty pitfalls!

Well, we can make a "How to do it" video, to make it easier

 

[javoresku]

Can't make it for Friday the 3rd, should be OK for everything else.

 

[Rargon]

I'll join you for the 4th practice

I will be there for the test race.

 

[PiGuy]

I can be there for everything mentioned.

Jst did some laps on a hosted server. I have framedrops in VR by the end of i think sector 1 when you are almost at the stadium part. This is without any cars around. It was in the evening so i think the lightning maybe uses to much i dont know but i need to sort it out because i think with cars wth it on track will be problematic. Anyone has suggestions ?
