Put this in tracks\nurburg\track.ini in place of [ pit_lane_0 ] [ pit_lane_0 ] lane_on_right = 1 ; 0 if lane on left, 1 if on right lane_has_wall = 0 ; 0 if no pit wall, 1 if pit wall exists lane_bounds_dlong = 22740.4 253.1 ; start/end dlong of the pit lane lane_bounds_dlat = -11.7 -2.8 ; start/end dlat of the pit lane pit_board = 11.0 1200.0 -100.0 100.0 ; dlat of board, dlong of board, dlong LOS start, dlong LOS end (last 2 not used) stall_0 = 18230.00 -4.30 stall_1 = 18219.47 -4.30 stall_2 = 18208.95 -4.30 stall_3 = 18198.42 -4.30 stall_4 = 18187.89 -4.30 stall_5 = 18177.37 -4.30 stall_6 = 18166.84 -4.30 stall_7 = 18156.32 -4.30 stall_8 = 18145.79 -4.30 stall_9 = 18135.26 -4.30 stall_10 = 18124.74 -4.30 stall_11 = 18114.21 -4.30 stall_12 = 18103.68 -4.30 stall_13 = 18093.16 -4.30 stall_14 = 18082.63 -4.30 stall_15 = 18072.11 -4.30 stall_16 = 18061.58 -4.30 stall_17 = 18051.05 -4.30 stall_18 = 18040.53 -4.30 stall_19 = 18030.00 -4.30 This will start you before the second Karussel and gives you time to warm your tyres a bit before starting a flying lap. Back up your original file of course. My apologies to the originator of this patch, I didn't record your name :-( -- Tony Whitley GPLRank -0.54 MonsterRank 460+ and falling...

Get the 'Ringtrainer' by Joachim Blum. Very useful tool, exactly what you need. No dealing with the track.ini, just choose your desired starting location from a dropdown menu and the program modifies the track.ini. You'll find it at http://www.joachimblum.de/ringtrainer.htm Have fun Werner Greg schrieb:

The BRM with GH setups at the Ring is not hard to drive ..unlike the Honda with GH setups !!!

Eldred! I just happened on to the BRM (F1) and have been enjoying every minute. I was just messing around at the Ring and Monza in it and I was able to do a 1:32.77 at Monza in the BRM after a few laps. I am really starting to like this car. Sure it is slow as Christmas in the starts, but it tends to hold speed well in the corners. I am not saying that I am going to run this 'pig' all the time, but I have a new respect for the noisy brit. Ran a few laps online at Milano last night at a BRM/Cooper only race and it was really fun, but then again I ran the Cooper right after and dropped 10 seconds :-O SLG [email hidden] (EldredP) wrote:

One of my leagues (IICC) is supposed to run a BRM only Milano race. I'll probably skip it - I can't keep the POS from spinning on the bankings... :( Eldred -- Dale Earnhardt, Sr. R.I.P. 1951-2001 Homepage - http://www.umich.edu/~epickett F1 hcp. +16.36...Monster +366.59...
