It also worked with 6 and then 12 cars in 3D3. 👍It worked well for 5 cars. Let's hope we're as lucky with over twice that.

Just wanted to point out that I like being on the pole in your example. 👍5. Here the host can verify that everyone is off-track. Then send messages telling the order of the cars. "p1 outlaw"; "p2 turbo"; "p3 brosif" etc... (feel free to write down times and order if you're awesome)
Kick back drink a beer smoke a doobie, do what you need to do.Sorry Jason, I am going to pull out of tomorrow's race.
I am re-thinking the time I spend on GT5. I really enjoy the racing when everyone runs respectful races.. but I have just been on the bad end of some suspect driving lately. The GT500 race I had today was ugly. Getting punted, shortcutted, damaged, and even shortcutted to damage.
I am sure I will re-find my enthusiasm before the final, but I need to take this week off for my own sanity.
Sorry to back out on this week. I hope you understand.
It might just be my upload speed collapse, hopefully at the worst it's fixed on Monday with my speed upgrade.CSL's iffy connection today is getting me worried for tomorrow. It's a sign . Im gonna be racing and praying at the same time
Maybe it will have to wait until next season, but we should think about open divisions, were you can race as many times as you want and just take your best score. With this group we would probably always have a grid of 16, and probably not as many DNS. Anyway, looking forward to tomorrow, should be a challenging race.Just fyi, 99% chance I won't be able to make the Div1 Race tomorrow. I almost certainly won't be at home in time to make the start but we'll see. Better to give a heads up than not

I was going to PM everyone tomorrow night after all the races to ask them what times would suit them best for both the wildcard race and the championship race. The wildcard race will not require much time on the racers part.
So when is the wildcard race going to be?
I was thinking sometimes Saturday evening seems to suit a lot of people, just a thought.
If I can't race tomorrow Green only need take 5th or 6th I believe and I'm doing the wildcard thing.
Doc would only need 4th or 5th I believe.
I think we're just at the point where we have to roll with the punches when it comes to connectivity.Just a note. We had a few issues in Watson's room today. Specifically, the incident that I encountered at Nurburgring (entering bizarro world during the race) reared its ugly head to me and a few other drivers. I also had that happen yesterday. I'm not sure if it was just an isolated incident or something larger looming but I just wanted to throw that out there.
No, because you're dropped round will change or mine will... let me check.I would need 4th + a bouns point lol, 3rd just to make sure . I hope you can make it but I would rather fight you for it, but would still be hard to get that spot if your not there.
It could potentially be ran shortly before the Championship race on Sunday too...
Will it be live qualifying or in order of points?
Order of points.
I just updated the OP with the new qualifying procedure.
Was a tiebreaker ever decided that I missed? Chances aren't very slim to get a tie here for all things considered.
NP, I just don't want to see bickering if it's decided after it happens is all.Working on it....
Let me check who that is - I think it needs to be a one-man decision now tbh.Edit: Driver with highest finishing position?
There goes my chance of finishing on the podium^^^ You should be OK to race Alien.
A live Marshal in to call cautions, give on-the-spot penalties and drive the Saftey car? Sound awesome, I've been thinking along the lines of such a thingWould anyone here be interested in a racing series that is a 100% replica to real life racing? We're talking full damage, separate day qualifying, self griding, caution flags w/safety car, etc?
I really want to compete in such a series but there are none.
1. After warm-up reset the track
2. Run 15 min of quli
3. After the total time has hit min 15 the host sends out a message saying "Checkered flag is out, finish your lap and quit to the pits".
4. Host then backs out to the lobby and goes to 'watch race' and then the timing screen
5. Here the host can verify that everyone is off-track. Then send messages telling the order of the cars. "p1 outlaw"; "p2 turbo"; "p3 brosif" etc... (feel free to write down times and order if you're awesome)
6. Host then backs out of the 'watch race' and re-enters the track.
7. Hit start race.
If your order is wrong, SAY SOMETHING!
The host can then reset the track and we grid up in the established order for a restart.
This seems to me like only adding another 2-5min of work and delay to 100% ensure that the start of the race cannot be messed up by bugs, the internet, or d/c issues.
