I was quite annoyed with not being able to do my gearing from 1 > N > R, but rahter having to go through a separate Neutral key... wel.. the solution was very simple, i found by the help of the forum at racesimcentral:

http://forum.racesim...&threadid=94007

:blush:

that solution was too obvious :o

Wonder if Greg is avoiding posting here, not revealing any times or tips, and suddenly on Sunday, he'll do a low 1:17, ;) but he said he's not good at Silverstone, so might avoid it, but still pick some points Sir Greg. :smoking: :smoking:

I'll be there Sean :). Don't worry I'm pretty sure I won't be doing low 1:17's ;)

Ok guys so are we in agreement that :

- We will all use the performance file included here in this thread
- We can use any car we want
- Silverstone will be a dry race
- 25% as normal
- 1 lap qualification
- 1 pit stop
- 2003 car pack
- Championship Race @ 20:30 GMT Sunday (I'm all for running practice until we are *all* on the server. So if you intend to fully be there, post here now, so we can write your name down and wait for you.. but we won't wait forever.. I really don't want anyone to miss out this time). Remember to look out for the "Atlas F1" race and the pass will be slowpoke. The sequence will be practice, then qualification, then race. No parade lap?

Excited? :-)

If two people use the same car and go into the pits at the same time = queue. Does anyone know of a setting I can change on the server that allows additional pitcrews?

I'm in for the race.

How about we change it from 2x to 1x fuel? 2x is useless as you can make it on a full tank anyways. Wouldn't it just be easier to work with 1x fuel so we don't have to go an change our setup et al.

just created one (with what I can gather is the race rules/aids thing we are going by) but I'm trying to make a setup so there'll be a bit of practice going on.

I just bought this game...
Considering that i thought F12002 kicked ass you can imagine that i am absolutely stunned by this game.
I am a bit lost with setup though :|

Are you kiding? It's a go-kart track, and it has the width of one too ! :D

I'll run it though...the 2003 drivers have to as well.

I'll run it as well, but it truly is a piss poor track. Too narrow and some really slow and uncomfortable corners.

Anyone running the game with an AMD XP and a Geforce 4 Ti card?

How is it performing?

Anyone started practicing the Hockenheim 2003 track?

I think its a ok track, tight corners, overtaking places. The race this year has competitive teams compared to last year, so better judgement for the track. :up:

Heh sounds like you guys had fun in your last race... I'm sorry I couldn't make it but I'll try to make the next one...

I race online as Black Jesus :up:

-Black Jesus always races as DC because honestly he needs the help!
-Black Jesus loves nothing more than to wind up Schumacher fans in the pre-race chat and then during the race put them at the receiving end of Schumi-style sportsmanship! * :p

Black Jesus, or BJ to his friends was pretty badass at the Ubisoft games (RS2, F1RC) but Iis a recent EA convert and I must say is pretty shocked at how weak he is. Nevertheless he was somewhat pleased to do a mid 1:18 at Hockenheim...


* Actually the opposite is true... Black Jesus is perfectly fair on track and more than willing/able to go wheel to wheel with anyonee.... But he has discovered that Juan Pablo Montoya was in fact correct when he asserted that European drivers were mentally weak. Whenever he races with "those dirty Euros", BJ finds them to be very, very fast but under pressure they fold like wet origami. Usually he only has to get within .5 gap and they just fall off the road in front of him.... worse still is their pattented matrix-style overtaking attempts, i.e. "there is no spoon/car". In other words it's on bitches!

I don't really like the new Hockenheim :|

Anyone know what kind of times are good on this track? I managed to do a 1:17.4

Yes Sean, yesterday we practised the Hock, online with Kanec. It's quite a difficult circuit, after a few laps I was able to do a 1:16:2. However, I won't be able to race because I'm at Hockenheim irl at that day :cool:

Is this the thread which can provide readers' feedback about F1 Challenge '99-'02 or is it in another one, please? I just didn't want to read it before I will be sure this is the thread I am looking for. Thank you a lot :wave:

And also some web pages about this game, please?

Not really feedback, but more of a encyclopedia on F1C's options and how to drive the car the best. If you got any spare time it's more than worth the read, the experienced drivers will already know most of what's being said here though.

Well, it's interesting for me anyway. I have installed F1 Challenge '99-'02 already so maybe this would help. So start reading now :) Thanks :up:
And also thanks for link! :eek: :) Already downloaded :)

btw: I tried this game only once so far (first I have a family, second I am on GP4 until now ;) ) and I didn't completed even one lap!! Spinning everywhere! :blush:
