Race Threads 2017

  1. I did the test race in DX11 in VR and had no issues.
    Go to where you installed rFactor2\UserData\Log and delete everything in the CBash and Shaders folder. It is recommended to do that every time you switch version. Hopefully that helps for you.

    When i look in the log you are still driving. Need to check why our tool ignores people with a finished status of none. We fix this later, but not today and maybe also not tomorrow. It will be fixed before the race.

    hello, yesterday afternoon when it was night, on the server it was day, and today at noon was running on the server and it was night
    I think the server is set up backwards

    It was very clear last night with about 32 cars on the server from both classes that not all drivers are aware of the rules regarding passing/lapping/blue flags between classes.
    One driver in particular hit a TRG car from behind and knocked him off the track then when questioned said "when a faster class car arrives you need to get out of the way."
    Within 5 minutes he did it again blaming the TRG car.

    Please know that the TRG cars are in a race and ARE NOT REQUIRED to react to blue flags triggered by GT3 cars.
    The GT3 cars must avoid contact and find a safe way past.

    If in doubt please see the thread on Stewards decisions from Spa. Several LMP cars were docked laps for contact with the slower GT3 cars. Now its our in the GT3s turn to be polite.

    Get your pass done b4 the turn-in point or wait till another spot.

    I will link a video I did for another multiclass event. For now I will save embarrassing one driver by making a video of his contacts last night.

  15. Thank you for organizing this event. Car #33 is out of the race. We decided to retire the car after loosing 11 laps (88 minutes) due to unbeliable problems: Steering Wheel disconnecting 1 straight before the race start, 2 random freezes that cost 6 laps, multiple crashes due to loading default setup when rejoining, etc... Its so sad for my team because we were 1 or 2 months preparing this day, but we couldn't even start the race normally and enjoy the first 3 or 4 laps fighting with the TOP. The most sad part is that we 100% know that we had the lap times to fight the victory of this race in spite of having a GP2 Engine in the straight with the BMW Z4 +60kg -10hp (The car was slower than others even having the slipstream of the faster engines).

    We hope to have time to participate in future events of P1 Gaming.

    Again, Thanks

    Hey, let us worry together :(!
    We didn´t decide to retire, we can´t rejoin after around 7 hours. Start for me was very pleasured, could win first corner and save way to Nords entry, after that i could lead the first stint until lap 7, before i must let pass Mike Horn in his McLaren, he was really fast, had spinaround in Galgenkopf and closed up again very fast, but before he hasn´t seen any option to pass me safe; really fair! Little later he pitted and i was very pleasured to gain one more lap per stint, even he has pitted as i see after crash in formation lap. But unfortunately this lap my wheel stepped out in Pflanzgarten and i have, after some reset tries, to disconnect. After rejoin i have had some cpu issues and have to give over the car in middle of second stint. After that, Chris Tuellner does some really good stints from P26 forward, following by stints of me, where i have had an crash with an breaking GT3 on Kesselchen and have to pitting.
    Later Robert Engel took over the car and have had an screen freeze on Döttinger, followed by rF2 crash. He rejoined, but we see on live timing, that his driving woudl not be recognized by server. He drove two further times over the line, but nothing happens. We tried an driver swap, but can´t find by following driver, so Robert has to dq another time. But that´s the final, because he became reply from server, that the try to join an opened session. That´s the end of our Camaro, started P1, lead first stints with an gap from 15 to 20 seconds as i remember right to P3 and following, -we dreamed of an good chance for podium, even it was very early to be honest, but we could play with the really good guys.
    But´s the same end of the race like Team Vortex, so it´s clearly no issue on our side, or individual our. We hope Studio397 reaches this issues and could search for an reason, and for best solve it.
    So i could not really say a lot to the BOP, i was really on the edge on my first stint, Mike seems really easy behind me, don´t know if the rest startet more conservative. Power is nothing..., no, power is not all in an endurance race ;).

    But as you say, we hope to see you all next year for multiple events. Thought P1 with Apex and Studio will do next step above and sort out some bugs, so we will enjoy more pleasure than here. But to be honest: real racing has to life with some bad issues, some really bad issues and sometimes unsubscribe before race starts. So we should take it sportsmanlike and see, that we had much less handicap as real racing, because mostly we had the option to rejoin with new car and mostly finish the race.

    Wish you all the best, merry christmas and an good 2018 and let us enjoy and bigger, better and amazing endurance season 2018...

    On that point I have to say sorry to Rene von Dobschuetz for the breaking incident. I could explain why I decided to break but I don't know if that's necessary. It's happened and I am sorry. It never was my intention to drive unfair or dangerous and endanger other.

    Yannick just talked to you after the incident but I did it and I have to apologize not Yannick

    Except for this incident and one incident caused by an slower BMW z4 a few laps before, I had really fun and enjoyed the Race. Thanks for that. Good work P1, especially race control and good work Apex.

    My English is not the best. Sorry for that

    Thank you all drivers, officials, broadcasters and Apex Modding for my 3rd and best Nords 24.
    We are obviously ecstatic at Hagemann Racing to win an event with so many great drivers and teams.

    After some sleep I will bore you with a "Full Report"

    No, i never would think that! Yannik visit us near after the incident and excused it very humble and friendly! There over i didn´t have seen any dump fouls in stream, -and i have had a lot of time to watch :(. I´ve supported our second car after our DNF from 17:00:00 to 00:00:00, but it was harder for me as the last years i could drive over the night.
    For us it was the fairest race we had seen until now, for the last years beginning in 2015 @ P1. Yes, some issues, but we hadn´t seen one idiot on the track. Every issue should been to excuse, the penalties were taken and no big discusses. That´s sportsmanlike driving as we all i think we want to see, and that over 24 hours and not easy weather conditions in the night. And i can´t remember one bad word over other drivers in our TS, like sometimes in races before ;).

    Big Grats to the deserved winners from Hagemann Racing and also the Podium, but also every arriving team! We think Hagemann´s has had a lot of bad luck over the season and we had won some races, now it was time for them, great performance, great tactic. Don´t know, if we had could play with, if we wasn´t DNF by unfortunately issues. I only could say we had all felt good, fine Setup in dry as well as in wet and the option for 8-lap stints. But it should not come so and we have to take it sportsmanlike. We attack next year as well as last years and hope, every team who has promised to come back next year, we also see...!!! P1-Series grown up very well in my opinion, Server runs without issue, BOP was good in our view and the grid was very respectful but also high rated! There is an big chance of more exciting races in 2018 if you all come again, and for the best bring up some other as well friendly and high rated drivers...

    PS: But as i seen now, we were not even in the race result as DNF :( :( :(
