Season 13 - General Discussion

[Nicolai Nicholson]

don't know why no times are shown on the website. Can it be that the prestogp website as the wrong version of this track for lap recording??

You were right, it was an error on the web-site that now is corrected. Now I am puzzled over my unusually strong time on the time table

 

[Steeve Fournier]

Now that the time table is working fine, i also remember that some 1:43 are "wrongly" recorded. They happen during the race, for those who had their pit stand beyond the start-finish line.

 

[Nelson Ullinskey]

And another vacation! This time May 14th. So sorry, but no Barcelona for me

I should be able to make the rest of the races though

Turns our I misunderstood when the vacation was... I won't be there for Silverstone, but I will be there for Barcelona.

Due to the "pit stop short cut issue" in the race, I wonder which lap time results from it and which one doesn't. I'm even wondering if my recorded 1:44:8xx is my "real" PB or results from that issue too.

So would it be a problem for anyone if we just erase any lap time for Silverstone 2011 and start from zero right now? Of course only if it's no biggy for Nico. What do you think?

 

[David Turnbull]

im pretty sure that the order was marko, helder, sean, reik, me then dino for the top 5, from sean back on the times list is genuine times so seans 44.7 from the other night is the target atm

You should be able to see when the time is set by hoovering over it (the table needs to be sorted after lap time). For me it looks like Sean's time is the best time that is not set in the race.

It is a bit of a hazzle to delete all the times, also it will soon be poluted again I suspect. Also, the qualify from season 10 should also give you an idea

 

[Kennett Ylitalo]

Isn't it great that conversion makers get the same amount of credit than track builders, especially when they do sooo good quality of work, having bugs that can be fixed in under a minute (well, maybe two in this case..)...

 

[Reik Major]

Nice tip Nico. All fine with it.

 

[Sean Greenlaw]

Ok by me lol seems like laptime wasn't as bad as originally thought even though it still felt like a poor lap, maybe just used to seeing and feeling rfactor 2's Silverstone which there is a massive difference has to be said, my advise though is not to drive it or even try the new demo with Honda Civic/Silverstone until this race is done lol.

Was there something wrong with track Kennet ?

 

[Kennett Ylitalo]

No, apart from that timing bug, everything is ok. Those timing gates are always something that one has to test, there's no real logic how they work in each case as tracks and pits are so different. But at least it's done so that 100% certainty your lap is counted when you visit pits. That's the main thing. And sometimes there is no way to stop those timing bugs happening, mind you, if we used pit limiter, it would not happen...

 

[Sean Greenlaw]

Is it possible when you get a chance Nico to make a 45 min q server .

 

[Steeve Fournier]

I'm happy to say that i will join silverstone race I am on vacation Even though i still really hate rain, its my only possibility to join a prestogp race this season. I really hoped for a dry race but mother nature decided something else .

Anyway, i'll try to keep it on track as much as possible, and mostly, not be a threat for anyone.

[Reik Major]

About weather NOTHING is for certain! The forecasts give a tendency but like in real life it could come different.

 

[Sean Greenlaw]

Nice 1 Steeve and agree Reik we all have seen before Daniel play with our heads race day .

 

[Kennett Ylitalo]

The forecast was light intensity, if it just drizzles every now and then, it's mostly dry conditions then.. Note, the wet driving line is much wider than dry line so we may even have to shuffle between the two, corner by corner as the conditions change.. It's gonna be an interesting one..

 

[Bob Miley]

Sorry guys looks like I'm out of Silverstone due to having to work late.

 

[Richard Hill]

I'm not going to be able to practice till the race now.
Would I still be able to race? Had an hour last week of practice and if I'm able to race will start from the back just incase. I feel confident that I won't be a hinderence and feel that I can finish the race all be it at the back possibly

It's the least prepared that I have ever been

 

[Alberto Casado]

I've been moving house this week and I did not put a single lap in silverstone, so I will not join tonight's event.

Have fun!

(those dislikes are meant to be like "sad you can not come" and not that I dont accept your reasons or anything )

what could be a simple way of finding the dry line?
