G'day,
Having added a mobile chicane to Lime Rock this evening, I'm continuing my run of looking like a total noob by posting with what feels like a stupid problem that I ought to know my way around.
I've tried creating an account/profile on SLS and it started banging on about problems-this and problems-that. So I gave up and caused an incident at Lime Rock. I've gone back to it and I can't seem to either sign in to an account or create a new one.
Am I missing something ridiculous? As far as I'm aware, I've never used this system before. Is it possible there's another 'stargazer' out there somewhere blocking the username from being used? If so, will I need to re-register to the boards here in order to fine a more unique name?
Sorry,
Rob

Rob, no problem. In fact SLS should have emailed me that your account needed activating. It didn't, so I've now done that. So it should allow you log in now. N.B: Your login is case sensitive. If you have forgotten your password, then the password reset should work. If not then send me a PM on here and I'll have a look for you. Once in, there should be a guide on here somewhere about registering to a season. But it's "Edit Driver Data" then "Seasons" Make sure you enter your rFactor profile name as the "Nick in Sim", otherwise it will not register your results after we import them. I'm not sure if you have a preferred car, but the list of allocated cars is here for the current season: sig-racing.boards.net/thread/493/lmp-car-allocationsSome drivers have changed already (those in a C65) If you're struggling then don't pick a C65. Otherwise the Acura \ Porsche Spyder Evo \ Lola Coupe \ Zytek all seem to have the most BHP. But also, just ignore Wrightys times. He only eats, sleeps, plays golf and races online. The rest of us work for a living  |

I may be paraphrasing Si, but it really is good advice "just ignore Wrighty" |

Really sorry to be a nuiscance, but I tjust tried SLS and I think it's still saying I'm not yet activated.
There's no urgency to this. I've got camera-club tonight and there's a lot of week left. If you get 2mins, I'd appreciate if someone could take a quick peek and let me know if it's me being daft or if there's a technical gremlin somewhere.
Cheers,
Rob.

Si is our SLS guru so I'm sure he'll be able to have a look. Really is no rush as we can always reimport race data to pick up a registration after the race .

If you want me to reset the password then send me a PM and I'll do that for you. |

Hazzah! Sorted. Thank, Si.
Now... Hopefully the last thing before I'm up to speed and ready to roll...
Driver Number and car... I chose a Ginetta Zytek, #41 I think, in rF. I think someone is already running that livery/number so do I choose an alternative team for that vehicle or does it go based on the driver number. As for driver numbers, do you allocate those out or can we request a number? If it's a reuqest basis, I'd like 59 if it's available, otherwise I'll put up with whatever I get.
Cheers,

Yeah! You're in. We are importing data on driver name only. However, so we all know by sight it would be best if we all had a different car. I think Scoops is running the 11LMS #41 Greaves Motorsport Ginetta Zytek Nissan and I have the 10LMS #40 Quifel ASM Ginetta Zytek So I don't mind you duplicating numbers as the mod does duplicate a lot of numbers, just pick something with a different livery. There are plenty of #32 in there and down in the normal Zytek models, you have a #5 and some Gulf livery #32 models. So just pick one and post in the car request thread sig-racing.boards.net/thread/491/lmp-car-requests-threadand I'll update the table in sig-racing.boards.net/thread/493/lmp-car-allocations |
