Note: Remainder of the series is cancelled.

We have three races left and hopefully that will generate more interest. I know we did a poll earlier asking for Saturday or Sunday, but this is just not working post F1.

So next Saturday at 12 PM Eastern time we will have racing from Brands Hatch.

Sunday will be the PCC Porsches as an F1 series "off-week"

Ooh, I might be interested in catching this..especially on Saturday. Especially over the next 2 weeks on the off-F1 weekends. Who's interested for this next weekend? It's always better with a full grid...

I wonder if 2 30-minute races would work better than a single one hour race?

I will do my best to be there so put me down.

SpyDoc, i am always with you.

Hm, i was under the impression that the mclaren serie did a fixed setup? If not, then i might try to join.

Only if you send me a copy (of your setup that is).

Thomas, it's the PCC series, run during the off-weeks of F1, that is a fixed setup series. For that car a fixed setup doesn't matter much anyway; it basically ensures everyone is running the same rear wing setting.

The McLaren F1 series is open setup.

looks like I'll be able to make this race tomorrow.

Hey guys does anyone have the 1.01 patch that they can upload to somewhere apart from rapidshare? Thanks in Advance

Edit: Thanks Ahmad
