Now that we are heading into the last few days of build up of the N24 I wills tart to go through all the details of the race event itself, Keep an eye on the OP as that will have all the details updated!!

Starting with the Schedule:

This is a rather tight schedule and we ask that every driver/team be on time!!!

2014 GTPlanet Nurburgring N24 By CORE


Schedule


11:00 Drivers in lobby.

11:25 Qulifying for race 1 10 mins

11:35 Megane Trophy Race 1 45 mins

12:20 5 mins to change room settings and make reverse grid

12:25 Megane Trophy Race 2 45 mins

13:35 10 mins break to clear out lobby and allow MDT to enter

13:45 Menace Drift Team show

14:05 10 Min advert run for GTP, GT6, CORE, N24 allowing teams to enter lobby

14:15 Teams will be in lobby and drivers brief will be given over headset

14:45 Cars set off on warm up lap. 65 mph safety car speed

15:00 Cars are released and ready to race.

15:03 Safety car will withdraw from track once all cars have left the GP track

15:00 End of race once leader crosses the line

15:00 Cool down lap once leader has crossed the line

15:18 All cars will make their way to the start line for photo finish

I'm not sure if having an additional 4 hours of events before the 24 hour race is a good idea. Why not host those events the following week?

Just to clarify, are these times GMT?
 
It shouldn't be a problem, not like we would wake up just ahead of the race anyway. And these two first races and the drift show isn't something the teams have to worry about very much since we don't participate in those.

A question though. That first "Drivers in lobby" is directed to the drivers who's participating in the support races right? Will the PRO-teams even have to be available at that point? or when do we have to be available on our skype account?
 
VLN Round 3 Results.

Note: Pace lap speed was a little on the high side, it is better to aim for a single speed that can be sustained throughout rather then accelerating and braking hard because of the bunching it causes.

*Notes
Romisagon I am aware that you are driving with a controller and we appreciate that it is more difficult to drive with one. But I had more than 6 reports of you getting in the way while being lapped, this is something that needs to be sorted for the N24 or it will have very serious consequences. When being lapped move over the the right of the track (like you were doing) but lift off and let the car through so you are not fighting cars who are laps ahead of you.

Great work by ABL to take their first win, looks like they will be a real threat in the N24 as they managed to finish the series 2nd despite missing the first round.

Happy to see GORE holding on to third and it will be exciting to start so far up in the 24 hour race. P24 was untouchable in the series but as we all know, anything can happen in a 24 hour race and we'll just have to see where everyone eventually ends up. :)

(I'm all giddy now, this is so exciting ^^ )

Sorry to say i made a mistake of carrying over the points from AM to PRO which means they are slightly higher than they should be

There are still 9 spots left open!!! These spots will go once it is advertised else where so if your interested in running put your name down now!!!
 
Lap 9 me and lavandel incident.
Coming back on to the track backwards at one of the fastest points of the track was never going to be a good idea, and it resulted in Lavandel spinning into the wall trying to get round your stationary car in the middle of the track.

Memto- I've checked replay and with all respect I haven't reversed there. I spinned on grass then bounced from band in to the track but for all that time I was on 4th gear and couldn't control car at that moment
My apologies to lavandel for losing time coz of me but he didn't hit a wall he spinned as well.
 
Great result for our team!!
I am very, very happy that with small problems with DC in the last round we do it!
Thank You for all Poland24 Racing drivers for great racing, dedication and engagement in the team!
So, It's the first championship for us, we are happy from Pole Position in N24hrs race!

Thank You CORE for great organisation, for all teams for good and clean racing!

See You on the practice sessions and 24 hours race!!!

Sebastian Plotnik - P24 Team Manager :)

memto, are you planning some official practice sessions to N24 with calendar?
 
yes there will be sessions in place, maybe not the conventional racing for some of them as we will need to go through all the rules and regulations for the N24 and how they will be applied and death with etc and going through scenarios to make sure everyone is on the same page about how this race will come together.

Yes, congrats to P24 on your Championship victory and the reward of starting on Pole on 22nd. After Round 1 I said privately to my team that you guys were strong and I think deserved winners.
 
Nice words! :) Thank You, but everybody knows that in the 24 hours race everything is possible, so who will be the strongest, we look at finish at sunday :)
 
Our team have some proposition about testing the connection.

We can try make a practice race in the N24 race host room and in the teams PSN accounts for N24.
Also lobby settings as writes oldboy and lucas. It will be good to start all N24 teams on their PSN accounts.
What Do You think about it? It can be 1-2hours race.
 
I am free for a practise most weeknights leading up to 22nd and this coming weekend. I cannot do anything on the weekend before the race (16th) as I have some RL commitments.

I'd like to use that test to get everyone connected with the new Skype accounts too
 
Really pleased to announce a partnership with Menace Drift Team who will be showing us their skills behind the wheel for the drift event as part of the build up, Big thanks to @MadFlavour and his team for participating and adding yet another element to this race!!!
 
A gentle reminder to @Glenalz81 and @LordZ1978


PSN ID Team Name
To all 'Pro' Teams that will be competing in the GTPN24 race in February, please remember to register your unique PSN ID for your Team Name when you have a chance. This will be the PSN ID that you will use to compete in February so that all is clear to the general public viewing the Livestream. Here is the list of registered Pro Teams, our suggested PSN ID for each (adhering to the PSN 16 a format) with those teams that have already registered clearly marked.

When you have registered your Team Name, please ensure you ONLY 'Friend' the other GTPN24 'Pro Teams' on this account as this will ensure that in February, the Lobby we set up will remain exclusive to only those teams entered/registered.

Please remember to ensure your 'Team Account' car has all the correct tyres and tunes on it for the Big Race on 22nd Feb.

Skype Team Name
For the GTPN24 the live stewarding will require an open dialogue with each Team Manager via Skype. For ease of identification, please can all Team Managers create a unique Skype Team Name and notify Gadget333 when completed.

Below is a summary of which teams have already created their unitque PSN and Skype team names. Please can those who have not completed both tasks yet do so ASAP as we will be planning a race rehearsal shortly and would like to test not only getting all team names into a lobby, but also the Skype comms too.
