Ok fellas. The time has come, so take the wife out to dinner or buy her some flowers so you can get another weeknight to sit in front of a computer screen and play games!

I was thinking about the alternate Wednesday to AAL LFS or every Thursday evening.

Round 1 Hidden Vally 48 laps
Round 2 Pukekhoe 56 laps
Round 3 Barbagallo 56 laps
Round 4 Jiading laps TBA
Round 5 Symmons Plains 60 laps
Round 6 Bathurst 100 laps (driver change)

Qualifiying will be held in the last practice session instead of the qual session. This way we can have a top ten shootout.

So lets get an offical show of hands and what car you'll be driving.

I'll be driving Rick Kellys HSVDT car.

Gizmo · Post by **Gizmo** » Thu Sep 28, 2006 10:31 am

i have the albert park (v2 i think from rfactorcentral) and its a fairly good representation. good FPS throughout

edit: its Albert Park GP4 v1.1

Sterling · Post by **Sterling** » Thu Sep 28, 2006 11:16 am

Is that the GP4 version r8? I think it is...........if so yeah it is rather good...........pretty bumpy ......

r8response · Post by **r8response** » Thu Sep 28, 2006 11:18 am

i doubt the real thing is silky smooth!

Why bother with Albert Park?
Seven has closed the chapter of V8's racing there again.

Yep .....I like tracks with a bit of character and bumpiness to them

Are you running the league? NO!! So just deal with it!!!

Acerlyte · Post by **Acerlyte** » Thu Sep 28, 2006 12:50 pm

Unless there has been an update with Mallala overnight it was CTDing for me yesterday. Same place, each time so unfortunately I don't think we can use it just yet.

You can try little man, I'm betting you wont like rF anymore because all the REAL racers will come give you a whoopin!! SO what's next sterls? Netcar poo? Im betting you could find very little competition there

Sterling · Post by **Sterling** » Thu Sep 28, 2006 1:17 pm

So if all the 'REAL' racers are driving how did you manage to sneak in?

hmmmmm It would seem much more appropriate that I drive HRT #2 then our taunts would mirror those of the real series.

Well I downloaded it from the completed tracks section of rFactor Central just yesterday so I assume so. Can't say I know for sure because I can't even complete the out lap on it before it CTDs. I figure they are probably working on it now.

EDIT: A quick spy at the rFactor Central site and it would seem a fully fixed version will be released Friday. Well if the comments are anything to go by
