That fireworks pic is something else entirely than what I see on my screen. It's still pretty, but nowhere near as vivid as that.

 

I've added a tone filter to these images; which changes the contrast.   Although it doesn't look too different with full graphics (not that I can run full options in VR, even with a 3080).

It does :D 

 

So it does! Weird, I've never noticed that option! :doh:

 

Can't use it anyway, the HDTV I use doesn't have HDR support. Have to swap it with the OLED in the living room for that. 😅

My monitor has HDR support, but only 400 nits and by all accounts its just not worth it.  So I never bothered; and I'm in VR now anyway. 

 

I'd love to see it running on a high framerate TV in 1000 nit HDR though; that would be something.

ah bugger, I just realised I can't make the Zaandvort race, I am up in Edinburgh for a few days work. My league place is gonna keep dropping like a stone 😭 and I was looking forward to a bit of tight 'n twisty GT4 mayhem.

Ah that's a shame :(

 

I'm gutted I missed the first two rounds as I've placed 3rd, 6th and 4th since then which I'm totally chuffed with.  Really happy with how last night's race turned out.  Aside from a couple of hairy moments when racing with folk, I didn't make any mistakes when lapping so it feels like I'm getting more consistent.

I can try and swap the TVs around when Mrs Meers isn't looking. My OLED has a brightness of 1000 cd/m². Hmmm, and supports 120Hz as well apparently.

 

I may have to have a word with the Mrs. Thing is, I (barely) use the OLED for the Xbox One X (anymore) for its HDR content, and Netflix (same reason). Hmmm...

:hmm:

 

And that's a shame, mate. How about a replacement driver?

Daniel got fastest lap last night.  Apologies, I added the extra points to Luis originally for this.

 I see it now too. I made the same error as you then. No biggie, already amended.

Something has messed up the sorting in my sheet, so I have a new challenge to find out what caused it. To the bug hunt mobile!

If you find the bug that results in me being 2nd, there's no rush to fix it ;)

Found it, but I'll wait until after the weekend to fix it as per your request, Gaz.

Still got 13 days and 98 free slots when I look? Maybe you're on the naughty list? 

 

Yeah, @mrben09 my post about hurrying to register was a joke.  105 car pit box at Suzuka! :D

 

EDIT: Unless you're also joking?!  :D  It's friday afternoon... please don't hurt my brain!

I didnt get to sleep more than 5 h, today 42 km of cycling and 4 hours of kayaking with our company and Im ready to sleep till Monday 😁

 

One final thing about tyres. If youve driven bit longer you may have noticed that tyres sometimes get grained, especially in low temperatures. Graining/tearing plays a significant part and is often more important than wear or even pressures. Its created by sliding and locking tyres. A tyre that has 1,5 mm left can still give one good laptimes if its not grained, but a heavily grained tyre will not. Some time ago we drove a Monza enduro with limited sets of tyres and we were forced to double stint tyres. Lot of effort was put to setup and driving to maintain tyre life, and well over 70 laps in for the set of tyres I had I still managed to clock some 1:48s and I was less than half a second slower than I was with fresh tyres.

 

Tyres we have in this sim for gt3 - especially 2020 tyres - and gt4 are very durable, but dont underestimate how important it is in long races to keep them good and in right temperature and pressure window.

As noob I though that the Aston Martin would suit me better but I got my best lap 1:53 😅 with the Porsche at the second or third try. Not sure whether to stick with the AM or going Porsche.

 

 

I'm not sure whst cars to try first. If any of you could describe the main cars with one liners that would be great.
