Few things

You guys dodged a bullet there, if it was me there'd probably be penalties

The pts are wrong joe. You gave skeng too few. I'll correct when I'm back from uni.

I've looked, I'll be at every round now.

Joe I'm sending you over a revised penalty system now

 

[SkengD]

I think the new guys need an explanation of the tire rules also . unless they watched the replay and understand it now .

 

[mustafur]

just a question, it says 1 slot open yet there is 6 slots open for the NSX?

I think it is because you're only allowed 16 people in a lounge and we are at 15, so the limiting factor is not car choice but lounge space.

Could be wrong though.

Yes you will be allowed to use that chassis

Fresh had the slowest lap, he said he just couldn't hang on with 1280kg. Also said he has some times for Trial Mountain Reverse, 1:23's so far.

Hey guys,

I just wanted to say thanks for letting me race in this series so late in the championship. My race at Fuji was a blast, the most fun I've had in a points scoring race in a long time. I like that guys are racing hard side by side with some contact, but continue to drive hard through it instead of flaming each other in the forums.

 

[kolden76]

Stupid me driving with R medium tier all the way to lap 49 on fuji f. And a last pitstopp in lap 49 ore 50 out of fuel. well well most learn from the misstake.
Like racing with you and realy looking forward to next race.
I am sorry for crash in the back of some of the cars, i will be more carefull next time.

I know i definitely do. I didnt understand the tire rule AT ALL. I was so confused throughout the whole race. Also i did not know there was a no swerving rule. My last league we didnt have that rule and ill be sure to obey if i can race again this weekend. Thanks for the warning.

 

[RodeRuner1967]

You're definitely able to race with us

 

[trustjab]

Fresh wants to know if anyone has any times for Trial Mountain so far? He said he's in the mid 1:23's so far.

My pb is a 1:21.664

 

[trustjab]

Thanks! Will let him know. I think he said he was on softs.

 

[SkengD]

Not a fan of reverse tracks but this is a short track so i should learn it quickly, at 1250 kg i think podium is impossible here .

Just looking fwd to the oval race , hope i can keep up with the lighter cars there .

 

[trustjab]

Ok, he said 1:23's on mediums 👍

 

[ZachAK47]

As far as I knew weaving was allowed. It doesn't say anywhere it is banned.
So long as you following driving standards, which say you must leave a gap if they alongside then it's fine.
I'm certain it was decided weaving actually slows you down so there's no point banning it.

 

[ZachAK47]

All tables are now updated with the correct information Note that max ballast added is +150.

 

[SkengD]

Weaving allowed ? No way

 

[Willfred_1]

isnt it the one move on a straight rule its been like that since i started

 

[phil bell]

Just don't do it in the bloody braking zones or I'll have whoever is doing it off the track.

 

[ZachAK47]

This is what we set out

When a driver has their front bumper, alongside the car aheads rear bumper, a cars width must be left by the car ahead.
The car ahead keeps right of way until the overtake is completed, when the overtaking car is completely ahead of the defending driver.
The car ahead may move across the track when defending even when the overtaking car is alongside, provided the overtaking car is not forced off track.
When alongside, a cars width must be left by the overtaking driver and the defending driver, neither driver cannot be forced off track.
Bump drafting is allowed, to indicate you do not wish to bump draft, move off the racing line on the straight.
The overtaking driver must be in full control of their vehicle and be prepared to abandon the overtake if contact is looking possible. Also known as avoidable contact!
Drivers can and will use their active flashers to insinuate that they plan on pitting after the next turn or two to reduce collisions upon pit entries while attempting to be overtaken.

If a car is alongside you have to leave a gap. There is nothing in there about number of moves. If a car is behind you can go wherever you like

 

[RodeRuner1967]

Ok, he said 1:23's on mediums 👍

I was on mediums to get the 1:21.6
I did a 1:21.9 before Joe left the room. Was getting consistent 1:22.2's before I made a couple of adjustments to my car.

 

[SkengD]

I think were too heavy now Seth .

If zach has two good results he can be in good shape for the last races.

I'm too slow to ever have a good result haha

 

[Slideways88]

Okay so theres no rule in weaving other than if a cars beside you which i would find obvious.

 

[trustjab]

Ok. Fresh told me hes into the 1:22's now. He just fooled with the gearing and its much better now. He also wants to know about the chicane curbing. He can get off the wall to the left by using the inside right curb, but is it two wheels inside the whole curbing, or is it the red and white part? Also wondering about the right turn concrete in the 2nd tunnel. Is that off limits?

 

[ZachAK47]

Okay so theres no rule in weaving other than if a cars beside you which i would find obvious.

Correct

Re Seth: I'll take a look at it and get back to you. As a rule curbing is red/white only. Tunnel I haven't seen yet but I'll post when I run the track later

 

[ZachAK47]

Trial mountain reverse track boundaries

Red and white only is classified as a curb. 2 wheels must remain on that.

The yellow chevroned areas will be within track limits.

The white lines on the straight may be treated as they are not there, use the walls for reference. (I'm open to discussion on this. But the racing line is as close as the wall you can get...)

The concrete in the tunnel is not permitted. So long as 2 wheels are on the red/white curbing that's fine

Pit exit: as there is no line, and no reference points, then use your common sense when exiting the pits. If there's a car approaching don't squeeze it, stay relatively right. If there's no car feel free to use as much track as possible

 

[joetruckv8]

No there wasn't a official rule at the moment since no one complained about it previously. We couldn't think of every single thing that could happen on a race track so as drivers push the limits then we add clauses to the main page to give you what we have now which I call a freakin bible at this point. It's almost as long as F1's sporting regs, j/k of course but you know what I mean.


Also drivers with the dangerous pit entrance just like SSR5 & Deep forest if your not trying to sell the guy behind you a dummy then hit your flashers to give warning you plan on pitting this lap. I know I will. After having to turn down in front of Seth @ Deep Forests pit entrance I've learned since then' 👍
