Yea, that was the problem I was having in the race, and couldn't understand why. In the practice sessions by myself, no issues. Last night in the pre-practice, and as you can see in qualifying, no issues. But for some reason when we opened the new room with no practice / qualifying, everything changed.

I checked the set up twice, made sure I loaded it twice in the ready up screen (as I always do), and not to mention my lap times all race were at least 1 second slower than what they were in practice for race pace. So the only thing I can think of, is something happens to the track when there is no practice / qualifying turned on. We saw this issue at Zolder in Round 1.

Yes so if we reset room looks. Like where gonna have to throw a 5 min practice or 5 min quali or both. I think we might have discoversd a live track glitch

I agree, I think this is what we might have to do to ensure that people don't have issues that impact their race due to glitches beyond their control. I will discuss with @Alex ONeill to make this part of our procedure if we have to reopen a new room. I will also test it to see if we only need one or the other or both practice / qualifying turned on.

From what I read it sounds as if you had to restart the lobby?

If so.....the track becomes completely green again. All rubber on track is lost. The only fix is to have cars on track again for a certain period of time. 5 minutes will help but 10 minutes (provided all cars are out running) will fix the issue.
 
I will be running the #22 Menards Chevy Indy Road Car for next season.
 
My apologies for my first ever RAGE-QUIT the other day, I got put into the wall not even halfway around the track and then @yogi bear lag wrecked me after turn 1 and it was undrivable, so rather then get in everyone's way I pulled a @Alex ONeill. :banghead: so if I'm allowed to still attend I'd like to be in the Honda. :bowdown:

What is the difference between the Honda and Chevy
Click to expand...

Well from a setup perspective they are identical, however, the Honda feels slightly more twitchy to me than the Chevy does.
 
Same here leaning towards Honda so my choice is #18 dale coyne racing Honda ,

, I agree we probably need to do 10 minute warm up is we have a restart , 5 minutes is not enough ,serval were struggling after restart which is a green track , so hence in a restart we do 10 minutes , ,

Only a suggestion guys , , so are we doing any kind of racing Thursday in anger because I have all week off work ,lucky me .

Forgot to say big time Dave ,I bet most of us have rage quit at least once over the years.
 
Have we tested these cars in long races .I did a 90 minute race last night and the results where very interesting. The car drives different from pitstop to pitstop and when the track rubbers in you can only drive on line . If. Anyone want to run some practice later I'll have a lobby open

Please invite me, no I have not actually run a long stint. Just did two little 30 minutes sessions with the Chevy and Honda, with default tune, to see what I wanted to drive for the new season.
 
I'm going with the #35 AJ Foyt Racing - Alex Tagliani Honda :gtpflag:.

There is an aero package difference, but really it boils down to... you'll never guess... The engine!

They simply make their power differently. Generally speaking the Chevy tends to be a little faster on track, but I can't tell you why.

As of this moment, there is no scheduled race this Thursday. Now if you guys still want to do something I am sure @Alex ONeill can come up with something for fun.

Sorry @Stanc03, appreciate the invites, but was distracted by another game. I will catch you on later this week.

I really don't know why I was having lag. Usually it's a pretty solid connection. I was side by side with about 2ft of room, then I heard mike say whoa! You just totaled Dave. I felt nothing. I looked in the mirror and all I saw was debri raining down. It looked like daves car blew up.
