Ok folks, we ready to kick off the season. Apologies for a situation out of my control last week, but we are now ready to roll.
Mandatory driver's meeting at 7:30PM PST. Racing underway at 7:45PM PST
IF you have problems, and can't make the first race , you can get in on the second one.
This really is just a kick off test race, but it counts for the season. So please there EARLY if you can.
Thanks.

Well that was a shitty night. Way to much lag and problems with Discord. Maybe time to use TeamSpeak as it is rock solid. I will turn some settings back down as I have not had problems in rF2 until it turned things up. see you next week. nice to have Rich join us.

It was great to see Rich there. Last night was really designed as a load test and to get us all on track together to race. With the volume of cars on the track, if anyone has problems, as mentioned last night, start by turning all shadows off. I did have lag, but i did have odd shadow draw on mine that i noticed. I'll try, and if someone else has time, to go through settings to see what is most resource affected that can be dialed back, but won't impact the experience. Robb, you & Matt are both on older older systems. And you both experiencing the lag issue. So I'm wondering if it hardware related. I need to go look at your specs again. Now as for the racing aspect...I wasn't expecting as many cautions as there were. So...we all gotta put our thinking caps on and give space it seems. One thing i have noticed, 2 or 3 together smooth, can catch the pack, so unlike previous mods, we can stretch out the field during the early going. Just food for thought. I did have fun last night, it was great to race with you all again and get the series going. Gonna be growing pains with new sim so nobody get riled up, we'll get it worked out Sent from Galaxy Note 5

I have ran rF2 for a few years now with no issues. I did turn my setting way up and forgot to turn them back down. I do not anticipate any problems next week.

Robb, If you are still having problems loading your skin send Dan a PM and maybe he can get you going before next Tuesday. he was able to help me.

thanks Ed. I should have got on that earlier but have lost some interest in racing. Been playing on my PS4 much more lately as there are some great games out. Looking forward to this series though.

I really want to race next week, the closer we are to starting on time the better it is for me. Thank you Joe.

I second that Joe. too often we start very late. There is no need to wait for people as we all know when the race start time is. The only reason for starting late is a technical difficulty. I have just bailed out in the past as I do not want to be racing past 9pm west coast time. I trust Ian will get things going on time for this series. It may take a night or 2 for everyone to get familiar with rf2 and have the settings right. I think this will be our best season yet... All hail the chief....that is you Ian...lol

Oh..don't worry...start times are going to become strict, and no restarts if someone comes 10 min late. I want us to really run as many laps as possible each week.
