I'm up for having a randomly generated track, and I also agree that we should keep dirt and snow tracks for rally cars. I'll update the post to reflect the correction for Toscana.

Cool. I'll get some track setup parameters posted by the end of the weekend.
 
Haha against ovals, against dirt. Lol I need to take you guys out for some lessons and you guys can give me your 2 cents for the road courses

I haven't seen anything against ovals. I think it would be fun. However, with what amounts to a touring car, dirt would be a struggle.
 
THRASH
When theres a high horsepower car in a season id love indy

I almost picked an oval, lol. I don't hate them, but the thought of turning left for an hour and a half led me to Toscana.

I need Bowler to get his oval event going 👍 Because I try to drive 'em like a road course :lol:

Next season I feel an oval coming on.
Now I wanna finish top 6 just to make sure we have indy lol

👍 goals are important!
 
Mine is to equal my best result ever (4th at Trial mountain, I don't know how many seasons ago) or get close to it, or simply don't mess it up
 
Just tested some Toscana Tarmac settings.

4 sections. I think leaving it here is fine. Maybe 3 if we want more laps.

Complexity 2 - very high speed, a couple of slower corners but I can see a real draft fest. Easy to get the hang of.
Complexity 5 - good compromise for high and low speed corners. A little harder to memorize.
Complexity 7 - quite a few slower corners, some higher speed sections but not as many high speed corners. A little harder to memorize yet.
Complexity 10 - barely got into 5th gear, lot's of low speed corners, barely any high speed. Seemed frustrating and probably hard to get the hang of in 15 minutes of qualifying. Really hard to memorize.

Had the most fun with complexity 5 or 7. Will play a bit more :)

Input welcome 👍

Sounds intense kcheeb!
 
I just practiced at spa
Hit a 2:23 so I imagine you guys will be getting 2:18-2:20 For qualifying

I hit 2:22 and I think I don't take fast enough the Eau Rouge, I brake a little until 210km/h, when I think I should pass it at 220

2:21.068! :D

Do we know how many laps are we racing tonight?

Okay. Here we go.

I averaged the lap time to 2:20. With 105 minutes of racing , not including pit stops , I calculated the laps for tonights race at Spa being 47 laps. If anyone thinks that my calculation is incorrect:dopey: , please don't hesitate to say something.:)

Remember , we are starting this season off with a couple of changes;

1-Soft/Hard tires will be used instead of Med/Hard. Same rules apply with a compound change once during the race.

2-There will be only 15 minutes of qualifing so we can have more actual race time / laps.

So everyone can have the full 15 minutes of qualifing , I would suggest that everyone racing be on time. (7pm et / 10pm pt).

See everyone tonight!

I like 4 sections with 5 complexity:tup: I'm going to check it out first.
This track idea is going to be awesome! Can't wait! If this works , which I see no reason it won't , it can open some doors for Aso and other Toscana Tarmac tracks.

Maybe for this one race we can have a 20-30 min qualifing. Thoughts?
 
I would like to participate tonight if possible and have already sent a FR to SNAIL_Division2

I was thinking the same tcrash! A little extra time to spend getting one with the fences :lol:

I'll also play with the time settings, for an hour and a half I'd like a full day/night cycle :) Time to look up those posts explaining it again!
 
Hope that custom track thing is on my off week. ;)

I refuse to race them with triples. The outside monitors don't work on them. :( sorry but maybe I'll get lucky. 1/12 - 1/26 - 2/9 - so on is when I will be in attendance.

I haven't done any endurance racing with my wheel yet. Not sure if I'll be able to commit to the entire month, but I'll be there for tonights race 👍

Oh that bites, hadn't thought about that. It'll be strange driving without them now :(

Sweet, weekly attendance is not mandatory by a long shot. Race when you can, I do 👍
