All drivers: dont forget to auto-confirm for season 3 those who confirmed for season 2 will need to re-confirm for season 3. So far I have @WanganGhost and BoD on the list that can be found on the #3 post

Con 🤬 firming that I wont be here next season. That will free up a spot for the BMW M6.

Had a lot of fun in this league thanks for having me. Going to be scaling back the racing a bit for now but I hope to be back down the road. Cheers

Thanks for joining the ranks the past couple of seasons. Sad to see you go, but understandable. There will always be a place on the grid for you when you’d like to join up.
 
@Nick Cannella should me and my drivers be on the confirm list?
If you would like to be on the auto confirm list that certainly helps.
By joining auto confirm it saves you and the drivers the hassle of having to confirm week over week. The premise is that you will be in attendance all season.
Of course we all know things happen and that may impact your opportunity to race. If that is the case, you only need to respond that YOU WILL NOT BE RACING for any specific week.
It’s really an advantage to be on auto confirm in my opinion.
 
Also auto confirm is open and available to any driver that would like to be on it.
We do track driver participation as well, so if you can’t make a race that must be stated in the thread. As we would like all drivers to make all races, we are realistic, so your participation in the thread (by confirming to race or not) also goes toward your participation percentage.
 
To: ARL Drivers
FROM: ARL BOD
RE: Upcoming changes for season 3

After some intense negotiations and heavy beer drinking, the ARL BOD is happy to announce some changes for our upcoming 3rd season.

We gathered all the feedback the drivers provided during the survey period and discussed each suggestion. Some made the cut, some did not, some were tabled for further discussion. Make no mistake however, each idea that was submitted was not brushed aside easily.

While wanting to make some changes, we felt wholesale change was not necessarily needed. We’ve had a working formula for two seasons, and we think the suggestions below will only enhance what we have in place.

In no specific order, here are the changes you all can look forward to in season 3.

  • Car Rule: There will be no change at this time to the current structure of how many cars can be used during a season. Car selections will be limited to only 4 selections of the same car.
  • Implementation of Divisions: The ARL will split into two (2) divisions for season 3, with each division running its own point championship. We feel this will allow for even greater competition among drivers with similar skill levels, and we will crown two (2) champions at season end. Divisions will be established. Lobbies will still be mixed with all drivers competing against one another. There is more detail to come on this subject.
  • Qualifying: Qualifying will consist of one (1) out lap and two (2) hot laps, provided lap times are under two (2) minutes. If a lap time exceeds two (2) minutes, then we will default to one (1) out lap and one (1) hot lap.
  • Race length will remain at the current target range of 40-45 minutes.
  • WILDCARD RACES will be increased to one (1) hour in total length.
  • Tire and fuel wear will remain the same for season 3 (Tire X10, Fuel X6).
  • Teams shall consist of one (1) driver from each division (North/South) and will be limited to two (2) drivers per team.
  • Teams may use cars of DIFFERENT manufacturers but will be required to keep the same PRIMARY COLOR and PRIMARY SPONSOR.
  • The race schedule will continue to be randomized monthly. We have also decided that Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya will be the first track/race scheduled for every season moving forward. We really liked this suggestion, and chose this specific track, as it was the first ever ARL race/track we ran.
  • Revised IR reporting, penalties and Steward structure: A new form was introduced to help with reporting IR’s a little more user friendly. Look for additional information on this before the season kicks off. The BOD also ruled that any driver placed on any type of penalty probation, that penalty probation will follow the driver to the ARL’s other current series or future series. Finally, we have restricted our Stewards and their responsibility back to you, our driver base. Any IR that is filed within the timeframe required, will be reviewed, decided upon and communicated back to the drivers no later than 9:00pm (Eastern) following the race week.
Yall part of snail now with these divisons?
