Same here. I'll run some laps when the server is up however.

[richo]

I'm out still pinging the server at 800-1300ms , no one on at home but myself .

I have to get on to Bigpond and get it sussed because it blows this combo is my fave so far in AC by miles but I would rather sit it out than fuck someone elses night.

It shows in the USA to me lol Will keep checking though

[avaran]

Sorry guys. I can't make it tonight.

[pixelboy]

It shows in the USA to me lol Will keep checking though

I think it shows USA due to Amazon using US IP address allocations.. Its deff in AUS looking at the average pings of 20-40

[ysu]

Yeah if its AWS its at Equinex Syd1 and 3 I think

it's ec2 but I've heard it's in the Equinix data center, too.

grrrrr so unhappy...... leading the race dicing with Righty and my router craps its pants!!!!!!!! Time for many more beers!!

[pixelboy]

Great race guys.. does anyone have the result screenie.. my F8 had no overlay

Well done Righty.. Nutty needs donations so he can afford enough fuel

[Righteous]

Yeah, that was as shame, it was good fun for the few laps that we were at it.

I thought we had all fallen over again, then I noticed Box in my mirrors so kept at it.

It was a pretty quiet race for me. Just keeping a gap to Box and trying to out do Nutty's laps when they popped up

Too bad you fell off Nutty, you seemed to have good pace.

Fun as usual, bring on the series

Thanks Pix.

[nutty]

haha great racing guys, I had someone punt me coming onto the backstrait lap two watching Righy fighting it out, would have been a good race without that..
Then the next lap I tried to get a good run and punted someone else off just a hard bit of track with the latency when your trying to get a good run.

Sorta just made my own fun from then on in, had a few wheel to wheel battles including a bit too much wheel to wheel one with pix

Super annoyed about low fuel, hit the join race and couldnt go back to change it was lifting on straits and short shifting when I can.. ran out abotu 300m from the line

[Davo]

Awesome stuff for my first proper AC MP race!

Sorry to Cursed for the tap on the second last corner, got a bit hot under brakes.

Was happy with my setup, but didn't try a 25 lapper so of course my soft slicks gave way and I was sliding all over the place Couldn't do a lap without sliding off somewhere.. had waay too much fuel.

Cheers!

[Cursed]

No big deal, Davo. My attention span is so short, I never remember who I crashed into (T-boned someone who was sideway at the entry to Hangar Straight early on), or who hit me. I know that I was slow in some corners where others were flying, so I'm never all that surprised to get a tap.

I had the most annoying problem with screen stutter. The frame rate was all over the place. I never had the problem in single-player hotlapping runs, it was only while I was in the server tonight. It's not like my system is short of horsepower either (i7-4770K, GTX780Ti).

It was nice to finish 4th in the end.

[dvestate]

100% bring on a series, looking forward to it. Got more into this one instead of just pumping out a decent lap and pretty much hoping for the best on race night

Cool, glad I didn't ruin anyones race

My frame rate was down asd well, apparently this is a bug if there's cars in the pits even if they're not driven they still use up resources, sucks big time. From watching a replay at 160fps my pc chugged at an avg of 60-70fps for the race. Thought it was maybe my gfx card overheating.

[dvestate]

So where are we throwing down next???

[Gizmo]

Any idea/news on what the series will be gents?
