Hi Guys,
As of now I have no response from Kevin. If I don't here from James and from his previous anouncement I will assume he is out, here is the deal.
PORRS A will be Rob, Dave and Bob. Please organize your stinits. I know Dave said he will be there for the last. So either Bob or Rob will start the gig.
I'm so fed up with work I put it off for later. I will be starting the B car, If Harrison is still in for it, we will work out our ride. I'll do a 2 hour stint since he has requested 1 hour rides. At the end of 2 hours if he is not there and the A team is out, please be ready with a name that matches what is in the B Team if you want to finish the race.
By then I'll need to head into work.
Any ?, fire away

Sounds good Ced.
We should all get online sometime this week and make sure that Teamspeak is working for all of us and the do some final pit swap testing. I'm available every night after 6:00 pm Pacific.

I'll be around tonight also. I will be there for the race. I don't know where the communication break is happening but you can e-mail or IM anytime and I will get right back to you. Ced I can run 1.5 if that helps. 2 is just too much for me. Pls let me know what time and server for tonight.

Guys,
To access the Teamspeak server now requires a username and password. The password is porrs (in lower case) and I've setup a username for each of you, all you need to do is type in your name - Ced, Rob, Bob, James, Kevin, Loren, Harrison, and Dave and then porrs in the password field in the Quick Connect option. Once in Teamspeak you should see three chat areas
PORRS_A Online Communications PORRS_B Online Communications Offline Chat Area
Single left click on the channel you want to go to and then single right click your mouse then select Change Channels to move to that channel.
Each team should use their appropriate channel when online and then we can just move to the Offline chat area if we want to talk to each other offline.
I've never used Teamspeak like this before so I"m hoping it will work, we should test it out over the next week to make sure though. ;D
Let me know if you have any problems getting in OK
DaveS

Hi Harrison,
I wasn't sure because I didn't see anything regarding showing up for the test race last Saturday. Have you been able to test your driver swaps? It's hard for me during the week unless you are a nite owl because I'm on the west coast and don't usually get home till after 7.
At this point it may just be you and me in the 2nd car. I haven't heard from Kevin and James is probably out of town already as I haven't seen anything from him and he wasn't at the TPTCC race on Friday. So the A team will be Rob, Bob and Dave.
I'll start the race (I worked it out with work not to come in until later, it'll just be a late night...lol)
I'm guessing 5.5 - 5.75 hours.
If practice is at 12:30, guessing 30 minutes and 10 minute Q and 5 minute warmup, race time should be 1:15
Ced 2.0 1:15 - 3:15 Harrison 1.5 3:15 - 4:45 Ced 1.0 4:45 - 5:45 Harrison 1.5 5:45 - 7:15
Let me know if that is ok with you

Harrison, I am going to check out the BR server now and as I've posted see if you can join me there on my free times, I can send you the setup in-game when we meet. I am going to be on Dave's Team Speak server as well. Hope to see you, and others, on the BR server and Team Speak sometime soon Bob

Once you have the latest patch you still won't find the server in the server list, you will need to do the following: - Go to the lobby in rFactor - On the top/left is a blue "+" icon to add a server, press it - type in "64.69.45.20:38297" and press ACCEPT - The server should now be the ONLY server displayed on the list.

Quick post... Was just on BR server and TS server (Nice setup Dave ) and was the only one there. Had 25.1 gallons on board, ran for 45 minutes (then the server went to Q), about 25 laps, still had enough fuel for maybe 15 more minutes/5 more laps, tires were getting ragged. Figure 45 minutes to 1 hour per stint (double stint 1.5-2 hours). Will be back on both servers after midnight Eastern but I am tired now so most likely not for a long time. Bob
