Imagine the level of indignation that Directors, Organizers, and Stewards Deal with in Real Racing?
Guess we are getting to experience a Simulated indignation event as well.

Some people seem to underestimate the effort that some people tend to put in these events. This isn't some regular weekly league race, it's an annual event, and because of that some people do put in more time and effort than others.
Call it taking a game too seriously but it's also a competition. Some people want to do well. For some, it's actually quite disrespectful to the organizers and other racers to treat this as just any other race after all the time and effort from both sides.
Did some people overreact by missing the memo and failing to ask questions? Yes, but the way the rules were presented weren't exactly crystal clear either. Questions had to be asked but at the same time information needed to have been presented better.
Was too much done in an attempt to accommodate everyone? Yes, as a special event you want to do everything you can for all interested parties but I think it made things needlessly complicated this time around.

Yeah that's what we did for Nurb. Last year for Le Mans we ran with it on though.
I don't disagree, I'd just hate for someone else to get butthurt because it wasn't decided a month prior. Just want to make sure on one qualifying strategy gets screwed over.

Wait a minute. I know you @Neyrox and I know you're a good driver. I would race with you any time. However, if I were racing with someone and lost time battling with them or, heaven forbid, had contact and lost time when I know they are not even going to finish I would be a bit annoyed at that. Just saying.

To add onto this a bit, some drivers during the Nurb 2.4 event were concerned with enough people leaving making the rooms combine. I would hope the same doesn't happen here since 3 lobbies was already discussed. In the case that not enough to warrant 3 happen, that might cause problems.

I believe I already mentioned this somewhere on here, but should the need arise to combine into 2 lobbies, I see no reason why we wouldn't. I'd love to have 3 come race day, but it is what it is.

Qualifying is a bit more important here since I assume we’re using it to separate Pro & Am or whatever so it’ll decide what lobby you’re in.
When you say we’re allowed 2 attempts, does that mean we’re allowed two laps or two 30 minute sessions?

tire/ fuel wear off is my thinking puts everyone on the same playing field KINDA

With the fuel and tire wear off, we wouldn't have the sad culture of fuel burning during qualification.
Setted and myself would like a qualification before the official one. I'll pm you when I know we're able to.
Edit: I see #7 is free again. Pretty please

As per the OP.

To answer your question the OP states that "Primary Sponsors are exclusive to each team/driver", which means when signing up as a team you pick a primary sponsor for the team.I'm going with the BMW M6 and will team up with @Herimopp89 and @Neutty as SNAILRACING. I'm new to all of this - as a team do we have to all use the same 'Sponsors' or can we run with different sponsor decals but the same style liveries?
Thanks for putting this together Ace. You cant please everyone
