    Should be pretty good, great combo selection for tonight, particularly looking forward to GTR3/LMP2 @ Shanghai, sector 1 is one of the best combination of corners in racing for me, going to be awesome. :D

    @OverTheLine are you actually going to be racing tonight or has work got in the way again?

    Thanks for this weeks race. Fun to race on Shanghai, even though it's no favorite of mine. Would've changed to GT3 due to being alone in P2 but missed the time for it. You guys in the top seemed to have a good tight race.

    After around a decade of racing on my trusted G27 I made some changes in my setup. Found a Fanatec CSR FM wheel with CSR pedals in my local recycling central yesterday and took it home. All I needed to do was a firmware/driver update along with cleaning and tightening the optical encoder disc and PCB. Well, some serious cleaning and disinfecting of the wheel too. Like my brother said - "you might've saved a penny but you might also die of Ebola-HIV-Leprosy". :D

    I had only practiced with it for a good hour and wow, it's like walking in freaking high heals on an ice rink. Will take some time to get used to the feeling compared to the G27. Also it seems that it sticks to one direction sometimes which spoiled race 1 on Red Bull Ring tonight. Will try to glue the encoder disc since I believe it might be slipping.

    One week to go until Silverstone 90 min. Will need to take a decision whether to race with the old lady or my thrash-find.

    Was good fun tonight (at the back). Would like to see Shanghai feature again soon. Not really raced on there much but that track is a grower.
    Cannot belive i got pipped on the line in the last sprint ...ha oh well.

    Mwahahahaha. :p

    Great races last night. Most with squid due to spins, slow downs and punts.
    Shanghai was a great too and fro battle, we must have swapped places at least 10 times!!

    Then the last corner on the last lap on the last race.... it was all down to a remaining P2P, and a great exit thanks to Dan over shooting his braking!

    All in all, some good clean racing at the back.

    Seems you got used to it. Man, you were already more than fast enough with the G27 ;)
    Btw again very nice clean races last sunday. Shanghai qualifying time was a bit short to learn the track and find a setup. But it was a nice race and I would like to drive this track more often. My personal highlight was the finish straight on the Raceroom track - so close.

    Next sundays race see's CFEG go to Silverstone for our monthly 90m multiclass events - these events are subject to sign up, and will be hosted privately as opposed to our usual weekly public servers... for more information either visit out steam group or our adjacent R3E forum post (Link below)

    https://forum.sector3studios.com/in...nutes-of-silverstone-lmp2-gtr3-26-02-17.6759/

    With already 26 drivers signed up now is a great time to fill the remaining slots of the grid. Clean racing is expected, and those who fail to comply can be subject to being banned from future races if complaints are received, Remeber these events are 90m long, anything can happen in that time. Race smart, Race Fair, Race clean, and have fun :)

    Any questions then message me on steam or here on the forums.

    On a seperate note....we have made a minor change to our weekly schedule....week 3 (race 2) has been changed from LMP2 + GTR3 to simply just GTR3.....making it our very own mini Blancpain Sprint event. .. We found that without plenty of practice, many drivers did not drive the LMP2 vehicles, making it a fairly lonely 25m races for the few that did...that is an issue no more, as it has now been made a single class event.

    Polite request - Any plans to add Hungaroring, Sachsenring and Zolder to the track cycle? All great tracks, IMO Hung would be good for GT3, Sach great for classics, zolder - everything....

    we will be adding some more tracks , most likely hungaroring first in fairness, sachenring is fairly underrated, might be fun for lmp2 and gtr3 there but will see :) we have already decided on new tracks for the next month, but ill consider them

    Question for @OverTheLine.

    Would you guys consider racing the P1 and P2 as a multiclass, P1 and GTR3 as well as some of the open wheelers? I know many don't feel comfortable with single seaters but the FRR3 are good fun and easy to drive and race.

    Sadly we dont have any plans in the near future to change our schedule. We are aiming on simply getting a routine and growing our community until its possible to host a championship, The cars introduced recently where voted for by our members, and therefore we have tried to cram in as many of the top classes in. as a result there is no further room in a month to include more classes without spilling over into another day of the week itself.



    Races for this sunday

    Meet - 2000H GMT (8pm uk time)
    Race 1 - Portimao National - GTO Classics - 10m
    Race 2 - Suzuka Grand Prix - GTR3 + LMP2 - 25m
    Race 3 - Bathurst (new) - WTCC 2015 - 10Min
    Any questions let me know.

    So, how was it last night?

    I couldn't make it last night, hectic drinking weekend meaning I wouldn't have been in a fit state to race!

    Looking forward to this weekends racing though!
