[K1LLD0z3R]

Where else would True hold a qualifier for Grand Valley?

 

[Ash9414]

Grand Valley haha.

Yeah, it's not a qualifier for GV lol. This one is an event to get what could essentially be the top 10 in the championship excempt from Q.

The GV Qualy will be in a week or 2 👍

I don't understand the TT coz I thought we were already put into Gold, Silver and Bronze leagues but I am within the 107% rule so it's all good!

Everyone still technically races together. Think of it like WEC with LMP1 LMP2 and GT

All the TT is, is to determine who gets to race in which lobby. You try and beat everyone but you focus on beating those in your class.

Am I explaining it badly or something to everyone?


Also, I forgot that only the top 10 get points so those in Lobby B are unable to score overall points. Therefore I'll alter the system later (may just double the points - similar to indycar )

Not at all mate, I'm glad someone asked as it's something that hasn't been mentioned. I had hoped to show everyone how it would work after a test race but that won't happen now.

There are 2 lobbies though. 3 divisions race in 2 lobbies. I will put up some pretend results later which will hopefully explain it better

 

[True-blue-8]

Okay, so first of, the provisional results have been updated in Post 2

Hopefully, here are examples below of how everything would work. Please not results have been randomly selected.

The following drivers in the top 10 would quailify. Usually the top 10 into lobby A would be the drivers in the championship. But for round 1 it will be the 10 fastest in the TT

Spoiler: 'Qualifying Stages'

Spoiler: 'Drivers Automatically through to LOBBY A'

1. IMMORTAL
2. SNOW
3. LIGHTNING
4. Fuvaros
5. xife
6. tiago
7. nik

Ran out of time to explain race results, will continue later. However that is how who races in what lobby will be decided. Very similar to F1. Does everyone understand that?

 

[True-blue-8]

So after those lobbies have been decided, that is who will race in what room. The final results will then be combined together. So drivers in lobby A will finish 1-15, and drivers in lobby B will be 16-31.

If you still don't get it then i'm not sure how much more I can explain. As already said, if it confuses you, then it shouldn't affect you. All you need to do is drive as fast as possible. Beat as many people as possible, but also try and learn who is in your class and beat them too. If you have to do a TT event, I will let people know, and on the night I will post you races in what lobby. All people need to do is follow instructions and understand that.


EDIT - Also, points system has been updated to involve all drivers

Apparently Lewis Hamilton was snapchatting throughout the drivers interview today. Here is his pic of your driver Carlos Sainz Jr.

Are you gonna actually make it to practice today, or are you gonna sit around sending pictures of F1 drivers disguised as bunny rabbits? Lmfao!!!

Apparently Saniz's mum said he was the most beautiful out of the two of them

Ah I thought they'd now be 3 lobbies, one for each Gold, Silver, Bronze... does this mean that Silver drivers who make it into Lobby A automatically get more points than Silver drivers that race in Lobby B?

No, I thought that too but we'd only have about 10 then at the max per lobby, best to maximise it.

Indeed it does, unless they DC. It should make an interesting battle during qualifying for silver guys. The class contenders would get through most likely, however there are plenty of people to spoil the party


Also, I have just updated the TT standings (you can find in post 2).

@TRL_Snow @xife10 @J_Starscream @Ph1sher @DeltaJuliet @Toshost @o0Maxx0o @pisquali @INFOWARRIOR @True-blue-8 @potvinsuks @Rvgracer @zed5274 @AJHG1000 @swiftsmith

Please note the TT closes in less than 24hours, and you guys are yet to record a time. Same principle to the AWOL rule and this counts. So if people are unable to do it they would have to let me know before hand, just as you need to before race day/starts. Anyone who doesn't will get penalty points. So try get a time in if you can

@DannyB013 @RacingLine i'm aware you guys are unable to set a time so don't worry 👍

No one has had 3 attempts yet, so there's still an opportunity for drivers to sneak into the top 10

 

[o0Maxx0o]

@True-blue-8 sry m8, i was busy with the TT on Laguna with the TS030 and tomorrow i have my endurance race on Bathurts, i'm really really sry

 

[Ph1sh]

Yeah I've been stuck at bathurst for this weekend so I won't be able to record any time as well but should be good to go after Bathurst.

no worries guys, what time is the Bathurst race?

It won't effect anything if you don't get it done, just means for round 1 you'll need to do the TT events to try get into LOBBY A, but thanks for letting me know and good luck

Wow, I'm embarrassed to say that I did not know exactly when the deadline for the Laguna TT was.

I'll make sure to post the laps in tonight and will remind the West End guys of it now!

Sorry mate!

Understood m8. That's easy enough to remember on a race to race basis 👍. Story of my life lol.... Always looking into things deeper then needed

Oh, and also, are we running GV Practice-Race sessions tomorrow?

I believe IP is holding the lobbies tomorrow as I can't guarantee i'll be there. (Unless i'm mistaken?), but it's next weekend i'll be hosting lobbies while the other guys do GTFusion.
