The upspead is only at a fraction of what it is usually, and the through put is very erratic. My Internet service providor is trying to sort it out. Going by past history, I'm not expecting it repaired before Saturday.
Heh I am in exactly the same position, and with exactly the same lack of confidence in it being sorted by Saturday, been able to do no online racing since last monday :(
Hi, early indications are that my broadband upspeed has returned. Ping times seem to be better then before, but early days yet. Looks like it maybe ok tomorrow.
Hello Whitewolf, the number #23 Kieth O'Dor and #24 Win Percy Nissan's are available.
We're just in the testing phase atm, to see if everyone likes the cars. So currently just using the tracks included in the BTCC Season 2 mod.

So... Do I just need the tracks from this mod to use with the other?
I can't download any of these, keep getting an error. So, i'm trying to sinc it to my drive and get it that way.
P.S. I'll run the #23 Kieth O'Dor NISSAN.
Yes, just the tracks only at the moment.
I dont remember google doing that before, but click on the mod. when you see the error screen, look in the bottom right corner for the downward pointing arrow. Click on the downward pointing arrow, and it should start downloading.
Just a reminder that I have a charity 2.4 to race tonight so won't make the test.
If one of you fine fellows could keep me updated on how it goes and possibly pass on some details of lap times I'd be ever so grateful lol.
Oh well, still trying to figure out the tuning aspect of the front wheel drives, and Donington is not one of my favorite tracks anyway. But I'm in for the season, once you guys figure it out.
Testing is done, the mod is okay not stellar but okay, so we will be starting the first Saturday of next month, Mango will be putting up a dedicated thread here and I will copy that across to GBR...Shame really as I aced it yesterday and the damned AI left me alone LOL Glad to have you aboard mate :)
I need Hannibal Smith from The A Team, as my plans arn't coming together.
I planned to create a new topic with al the BTCC Season 3 details Sunday, but then visitors said they were coming down for the day. Now I'm busy with other bits and pieces for the next few days. Doesn't look like i will get the enough time to look for or make pictures for headings until the end of the week.
I forgot Tarton asked for race results from the BTCC tests. We're using the BTCC Server from Season 2, so all the stats are still being recorded on the following links.
The mod was originally made for Race On by Andreas FSC. This was his first mod and has learnt everything to bring it up to standard. Evo Monkey has then converted the mod to rFactor (With permission). While the original V1.0 release was sketchy, it has now been improved by many helpful people around the community.
Please pick your ride and post in the thread. You will be required to drive the same car for the entire season so please choose wisely. A few cars only have 1 skin so doubles are premitted or custom skins.
Season 3 Race Calendar and Track Download Information

The AI will be eligible to score Championship Points.

Rear and Four Wheel drive cars are for AI Only (Open to review if a new driver is struggling).
Human drivers can only use 1 car all season ( no team/car swapping mid season).
Tyre useage is on NORMAL
Fuel useage is OFF (Due to AI pitting during the race)
AI Strength and Aggression is on 100%
Damage on 50%
No personal liveries (Youtube video's, easier to attract new drivers when they easily recognise the cars. Looks more authentic as a BTCC league).
No change to driver assist rules expected at this time.

Wow! I was almost certain you would of chosen one of the Ecurie Ecosse Vauxhall Cavalier's to match your skid lid.
I'm just checking who wants to drive which car for the next test on Saturday the 1st March.
Knight of Redemption = #3 John Cleland, Vauxhall Cavalier
Sherb = #88 Paul Radisich, Ford Mondeo
Jimmy Regan = #21 Julian Bailey, Toyota Carina ?
Mango Letsi = #34 Tiff Needell, Nissan Primera
Tartan Special = Peugeot or Renault ?
#46 Eugene O'Brien, Peugeot 405
I will be sticking with the #21 Julian Bailey, Toyota Carina.
Thanks
Neverender158 aka Jimmy
Sorry guys, I've got a fault with my broadband.
The upspead is only at a fraction of what it is usually, and the through put is very erratic. My Internet service providor is trying to sort it out. Going by past history, I'm not expecting it repaired before Saturday.
Mango
Heh I am in exactly the same position, and with exactly the same lack of confidence in it being sorted by Saturday, been able to do no online racing since last monday :(
Lame. Hopefully it gets sorted...because I "might" actually be around this Saturday.
Which of the Castrol Nissans can I use? And a link to the tracks would be apriciated, I have the mod.

If all goes well today in the second test, I will create a new topic for BTCC Season 3 with all the details sorted out properly on Sunday.
