I swear I could not see it, helps if I open my eyes. Thanks mate.

[AstrO]

I see you're coming over to the dark side and racing the C9 this time KNAPPO.

[AstrO]

Quick question, shouldn't the classes be more like the following? (although I'm going back to the good old C9 this round)

Prototypes – Mercedes-Benz C9 LM, Mazda 787b
GT2 - Ferrari 458 GT2, BMW M3 GT2, Corvette C7R
GT3 – Mercedes-Benz SLS GT3, Nissan GTR GT3, BMW Z4 GT3 & McLaren MP4 12C GT3

[pixelboy]

Yes possibly but then it's a bit unwieldy.. Besides.. The Nissan will spank any of the gt2's

[AstrO]

So this is really a Mercedes-Benz C9 LM (I assume) vs Nissan GTR GT3 race

[KNAPPO]

Yes sir!

[pixelboy]

So this is really a Mercedes-Benz C9 LM (I assume) vs Nissan GTR GT3 race

Yes essentially.. but I kept all the other cars so people can drive what they like

[renesis37]

I have a pretty dialled GTR set with 1 rear DF I will share. Contrary to what ptracker says I haven't done 100+ laps in this combo..

I will work on a C9 set shortly and share it too. The thing is a beast so I will be making it easier to drive with low DF, not faster

Still not decided 100% which car to run.

[KNAPPO]

The sleeping policeman......

Noob question for a first time AACL'er - are we allowed custom skins for this series?

[pixelboy]

Yes... just upload it so we can all get it and specify the name in the entry.

[renesis37]

Qualy setup is there, it shouldn't take much to make it into a race set with some harder tyres and minor alignment changes to improve the balance.

[Enforcer-J]

Ill have give this round a miss

Bugger EJ.

Ill be going with the Nissan GTR after a few laps prac in it last night. Its the only way ill survive the race without wanting to jump out the car and grind down some of the sleeping policeman...

[Enforcer-J]

I pulled a pre-gizmo and thought the race was last night!!! hahaha!

So I should be able to make it... not driving a h-pattern old school lemans though... I struggle enough with this POS track as it is. (The layout and the AC conversion/build)

Is there a map for it floating about?

[KNAPPO]

Did a solid prac run last night. Feelin dialed in now.

Ill be running this skin, ill make sure I submit it to the AACL.skins gmail account this weekend

Multi class racing comes to AACL!

Pixelator, these two URL's are not working for me any more. Has something changed for accessing this via the web?

http://stats.aacl.net.au/
http://52.64.106.32:50041/mainpage

Also while im here. Have the admins decided what pit exit to use?
The shorter one is easier for the car exiting the pits but its smack on the racing line for the car on track at a pretty committed corner. The longer exit is VERY hard for the car re joining from the pits to see anyone on the apex of T2 to their left. Even with triples ive smashed into the car on the track whilst re joining.

Happy to go with what ever you blokes decide as there is no perfect exit here.

[AstrO]

I've yet to run a lap (or download the track), hopefully I'll get some time before race night.

The server is only up from 6PM to Midnight.

I think the first exit is really bad, it will cause a bad accident for sure. I haven't yet tried the 2nd exit.

[MADCAP]

Just ran 4:10 with the R35 GTR, added some top end to the gearing - felt good on 2nd lap

[KNAPPO]

Yeah man, 1st exit will ruin someones race.
2nd is much better, if I know a car is close I have to take a glance left just so I know where they are.

Renz, are you saying those AACL stats page url's are only active whilst the server is up, 6pm to Midnight?
I chucked in a 4:02,6 last night. I expect you to top that Renz!
