K what is the best xbox type game to practice on ?

I will be leaving on the Monday not the Tuesday if someone could update the original post for the sake of clarity for room booking - thanks!

Assetto Corsa, is by far the most accurate and a sim rather than a game/arcade game, you really should be using a wheel though rather than a controller.

Spoken by the guru games master...:ok:

+1 for this....Dave's setup is immense, and certainly gives a truly realistic simulation that gets you sweating :ok: :drive:

You can even drive around the car park on Assetto and it offers the proper 'bridge to gantry' lap start and finish points.

Project Cars is very good in a GT3/VLN spec car. Complete with SES logo at Adeneau.

Assetto ordered.

Is anyone getting the Liber-t tag ?



Hassle-free motorway payment

Dear Mr Mcardle,

Beat the French motorway toll lane queues with a Liber-t tag.

Our exclusive deal with the French motorway operator, Sanef, gives you the chance to buy a Liber-t tag at a special reduced price.

Make the tag part of your essential travel kit:
It's easy - no loose change or tickets
It's quick - no queues, just drive through
It's convenient - payment is taken automatically
You can even apply for free (saving a further €10), so don't miss out!

You don't go on any French toll roads so no need, the only bit of tarmac you have to pay to use is the ring itself.

I was just about to ask the exact same question

Your only in France for about 20 minutes.
The only thing you need to worry about is alot of 40 tonne trucks, speed cameras and on the way back asylum seekers.

On positive note in the last 8 trips I dont believe anyone has been done for speeding as I normally set the pace so all you have to do is keep up.. :lol:

On the way back we have barely seen any asylum seekers as its still daylight.

Strange but true I have only managed to get in trouble with the long arm of the law (twice) when not following you.
This I struggle to understand!!!!

Have Paid Jackie in full for both rooms BigEmp & Little emp if you can update list.

Thanks

Dave

Maybe its because they can't keep up Scott. Here in France they have a few Subaru's around Paris on the motorway,but for the most part the police use standard Peugeot 205's.

Oh dear you better give me a head start then:-D

Adrian and Crowman both got done in Germany

No need to get worried, I've said to the Old Man (Big E) to go mid pack this year as it gets boring at the front! We normally charge off and do not see anyone for miles!! So mid pack for us this year for some FUN!!

Not that he listens!!!!!

Is everybody ready?? (Simon not included :hbags:)!!

That wasnt to and from the ring though was it?

Crowman got done for not having his documents:fool::fool:

I remember that trip very well do you James?? :whistle:

Just like to make sure we get there in time for the evening session. :doubleup:

Wait,, where going to Germany? :D

Both got caught speeding, Martyn got a bigger fine as didn't have license on him

:ok:

Think Simons more ready than you'd think ;)

Yes, important thing to remember to be sure you have every single piece of documentation with you, the Germans especially like this: licence, green card insurance (signed), control certificate (MOT, if applicable), grey card (log book), road tax (like the UK, doesn't have to be displayed).

Over here these, except your licence, have to be with the vehicle at all times and copies don't count (as I friend of mine found out when he showed them copy of his old paper UK licence he kept in the car, before we had cards, and got a nice fine). Basically the vehicle has to be totally legal when driven by anyone which is why our insurance is based on the car not the person.

I rest my case me lord...:doubleup:

Voiture sage, je suis plus prêt que la plupart penseront que je suis ;-)
