big al 515 Posted October 20, 2012 Report Share Posted October 20, 2012 It turned out a pretty good meeting for me, despite my pc doing its best to ruin it. In most of my races, I developed bad lag later on in the race. I don't get this often and it's one of the few meetings where it really affected my racing.In 2 of my heats it was virtually undriveable late on (especially heat 1, I managed to scrape home in heat 2). I am going to investigate again what might be running on my pc at the time, the graphics are already turned to minimum. I don't know if it was a server thing but didn't hear of any other complaints. So my best guess is it was my on board graphics having an off-night, although I don't remember Kings Lynn being a track I have had problems with before. Anyway, my last heat had no graphics problems and a good 5th meant I made the final. The Final went pear shaped like normal, but the Grand National was the highlight of the night when I led for about 14 and a half laps till DanSkin caught me up. By this time my graphics were teetering on the edge and were ok on the straights but threatening to go bad on the bends. Whether it affected Dan catching me I'll never know. I was hoping he might feel sorry for me and stick behind me, but there again, he is in the shootout at the moment so I guess I can't expect that (plus I want to win in my own right anyway). He tried to get under once, I closed the door but next bend he did it just right without sending me too wide, which meant I held onto 2nd despite an attempted last bender from Tom (amazed he still made 3rd after seeing him whistle past in my rearview mirror ). So I came about as close as I have to a win in rFactor - I don't think I have ever won a race on the rFactor platform (other than the famous Odsal non pointscoring B FINAL ) unless it's my bad memory from old age kicking in again. Thanks for running it so well FastTrack and Hooty . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corny 391 Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 Belatedly I must give a shout to the quality of the RM'ing and stewarding which is really top class at the moment - for example grids being pre-organised in the server for races where the grid is already known, really smooth. Thanks Fasttrack for RM'ing and Hooty for once again giving up your time to steward and all that goes with that, and Dan with the aforementioned grids Highly frustrating night for me racing-wise in the most part on what is probably my favourite track but, unbowed, I shall be back at a time of my choosing however soon that may be.

Corny 391 Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 Hehe - I knew even when writing it that I'd be racing Yarmouth, hence the 'however soon that may be' It was still at a time of my choosing eh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
