time and cars?

I don't have the TVR, M3, Lambo etc as I found they started to stuff my install to much.

edit:: is Brands worth it?

that page said:
Alison (above) is completely right. Don't waste your time on downloading this track, unless you like getting your bottom scraped! There are a couple of invisible bumps on the insides of fast corners - you can't miss them, some of them are even on the racing line. Until this is fixed, this is a really excellent track gone to waste. I hope Graham can sort this out and give us an update soon. It'd be a brilliant track, but these car-grounding lumps just render it useless and unplayable. One wonders... did Graham actually TEST this, before he released it? Shame - 4/10

Never encountered that, plus the TVR and M3 aren't GT's so it doesn't matter and you do have the Lambo it's a standard GTR car.

Watkins it may be then, as for times whenever anyone is about hence the question

8 sound good?

It was the other Lambo I was referring to, was it a Countach? I'm sure I've seen a Porker about as well somewhere...

Oh the Diablo was a April Fools joke, not real. The other Porsche is an unrestricted 911 Bi-turbo so it's on pace with the GT2 Porsche.

8 sounds good. Will post later with IP details.

I was going to suggest a trial run - 45mins to 1 hour race this weekend so that maybe we can have a big long endurance race next weeked

I'm having an absolute nightmare trying to get this sodding thing to load into the servers anymore.

I tried to get an online file and it crashed, so I reset and it not won't connect to the simbin servers to verify my password.

Confirming my opinion of GTR online this is

AJ... go into one of your other track folders and copy "skies.gtr" from there into the watkins glen folder... it might work.

If you ahve le mans 24 hr installed then you need the "skies.gtr" in each track directory... give it a go (skies.gtr is also in gtrgamedatalocationsshared).

Stefan - if you are having trouble with the password...

start the game... click "simulation"... re-register by clicking the register button and typing your details/the number on that card into it... should work then....

I've just re-installed the game, but figured your race would have been ran so haven't bothered trying again.

Shame really, I was getting the hang of the track
