    Don't worry, my pace around there isn't great either. Stozza is in the 23's and I can't even crack the 24's.

    You'll get there mate. Hockenheim is a pretty tricky circuit, quite a few spots where you can lose/gain time. My average lap is a mid to high 25, so not overly quick, but I'd be happy to see if I can help you bring your time down in a practice session or something.

    So whenever I try to upload to YouTube it goes through the whole process then says that the upload has failed. I just have a basic google/you tube account, is there something I need to set up on the YouTube end? It uploads fine to Facebook but not you tube.

    You shouldn't need anything special set up from memory. Like someone else suggested though, it's probably worth signing out and back in again to see if it helps.

    Something clicked last night and was able to run consistent 25's in the last race of the night so it's looking a little more promising.
    Still can't match your consistency though lol

    I try to compromise a little bit of pace for consistency. I'm still driving pretty hard but I'm definitely not taking it to the limit.

    Ok Guys and gal......First off, well done to everyone for what was a largely incident free round 1 last week....There were a couple of incidents, but overall the racing and room left by everyone was great to see. Lets hope it continues ;)

    MAIN POINTS FROM R1
    - make sure you make a change to the car settings in the garage and SAVE TO ALL TRACKS ! This will give the 80L of fuel that is required.
    - If you decide to quit the race DONT QUIT THE ROOM !
    The thing we learnt from lap 1 incidents, was that the cars are fast enough to get back in the game. When drivers are fighting for position, those behind were closing at around 1-1.5 sec per lap.....10 laps and your back in the fight
    -
    LAG .... for some reason there is an issue ATM with lag in most rooms....Can i ask THAT ALL DRIVERS RESET THEIR ROUTERS before the race......Anything we do to try to make it better is a good thing.

    POINTS FROM PRACTICE :
    - Turn 1 exit curb is a killer !
    - Pit lane entry / exit (see below)
    - Cut penalties at turns 1,3, 7,10, 16, 17 (see below)


    PLEASE BE ON TIME.
    Race Rooms will opened by host at approx 7:30 Sydney time (tune room) for people to set up their pit strategy, with the room host to open the NON TUNE race room at about 8pm Sydney time. If you cant make it PLEASE let the host / captain know in the division thread or by sending a message on PSN.

    TRACK LIMITS : As per our rules and regs drivers must keep 2 wheels on the ripple strips or white lines at all times. Hockenheim is fairly straight forward, there are cut penalties at turns 1(outside), 3 (inside), 7 (inside), 10 (outside) and finally between 16 &17 (outside). BE WARNED....IF YOU CONTINUALLY EXCEED TRACK LIMITS EXPECT A PENALTY.

    CONTACT : IS TO BE AVOIDED AT ALL TIMES. If you make contact with the car in front, and gain an advantage you MUST REDRESS and give the place back. Failure to do so could result in a penalty from the stewards group. Obviously, this is a higher chance at the chicanes. We have seen a few examples last season of contact to the rear of another car, pushing them off track. This is the classic redress situation. PLEASE REDRESS IF YOU DO THIS TO AVOID A PENALTY.

    PASSING : Is tough to pass here......give room where required. Obviously the T6 hairpin is the premier spot to 'try' to make something stick, is potential though for it to go pear shaped if you get in there too hot

    TURN 1 LAP 1 : Don't need to be a rocket scientist to know that you can't win the race in the first corner, but you sure as hell can lose it for yourself and / or ruin another drivers races by either being too aggressive OR too defensive. The T1 kink will be tricky on lap 1....as always, give room and back half of the grid need to brake a little earlier.

    COMPULSORY PITSTOP : All drivers must make a compulsory pitstop. Pit lane is open from LAP 1. All drivers will have to make sure their pit strat is sorted for each round, and make the decision of wanting to take the soft / hard or a mix of the 2 at their pitstop. We have found in the past that having multiple strategies can cause issues, so i would recommend you delete all except for the FB one (even default).

    FUEL : Will not be an issue...

    PIT ENTRY / EXIT : Both entry and exit CAN BE TRICKY.....There is some sand on the left hand side of pit entry, go in too hot and YOU WILL SPIN ! Make sure you do a prac run before race day. The EXIT is slippery and its easy to spin from the control line in lower gears.....again, have a prac run...once out of the lane the run into T2 is quite simple....look for fast approaching cars though...

    BLUE FLAGS : Please observe blue flags, and move out of the way of faster cars if you are being lapped. With the 2 classes there is slightly more chance of blue flags coming into play, so you should be aware of the leaders coming up on you, and move out of the way as soon as possible. Best to get off the race line, and with a small lift let them go, so you can continue the fight with those in your class. Failure to observe blue flags WILL result in a penalty

    STEWARDS GROUP AND RACE PROTESTS : This season we will again be using the stewards group for racing infringements and protests. The specific Stewards group thread will have all the info in it, regarding rules and regs, and the protest procedure. Please read it and understand how it works...we are still to link in the collated rules and regs.........You have until 12PM monday night to submit a protest, and 12PM Tuesday night for your evidence to be submitted (ie video).
    http://www.raceonoz.com/forums/index.php?threads/stewards-group-official-thread.2593/

    NOTE : We will be tweaking the penalties / penalty table a little this season, to give a little more wriggle room with how the penalties are handed out, and for the severity of the 'infringement'.

    SAVE YOUR REPLAY ! : Please remember to save your replay after the race. If you want to protest anything, we can only act on the info we have in front of us, failure to do so will not enable us to view things from your game perspective, and with some of the issues we have seen, this could have a massive influence on how the stewards group will view and rule on any incident.

    This track will kill your LHF tyre guys. I agree with Dj, the trick is to not push too hard or you will get to a point where your tyres suddenly drop off & become very slippery losing nearly 2 seconds a lap.
