Oni i spoke with cac few nights back he can't attend suzuka and spa mind if i take his spot? Best time in the 598 so far is 1.600 flat i needa do some more work on setup

 

[Oniichan]

I'll jump on that spot as a wildcard driver.

Not a problem. Just so you know there are 3 sprint races on monday night. You will be racing in the first 2. After that MrT will be on to do the final race so he may get points that he is in need of. Reminder that during sprint rounds you can only obtain points from 2 races and not 3. Therefore use those 2 races best you can to maximise your points.

If your not already familiar with the rules please read them again. If you have any questions, then ask away.

Done deal mate. If Cac is happy to with that then i have no problems. If something comes up and you can't make it let me know in advance mate.

ORS GT Championship Round 2 video

 

[wayne jacobs]

Hey u'll

Awesome video oni.

My best time is a 1:06.448

CHEERS redness-63(

 

[Rotamasta7]

Oni mate, those little additions to the video are awesome! Its funny how you at home can do a better job then the v8 supercars tv display and F1 hahaha, if only you had the ability to display sector times between each 3 drivers!

 

[Oniichan]

I can do that mate. It's just very time consuming. The next one will show what tyre each driver is on.

 

[Rotamasta7]

After not finishing last race, I headed to Rome to find a man with a sharp sword to help me get rid of that 35kgs of ballast.... Ran into this weirdo... He gave me a suggestion for which compound to open the race with... :S

 

[asuka611]

Oni, That is a fantastic race replay that you put together mate. Must of taken you ages to do it. I'd have to say its better than the real thing. Look forward to the next episode of ORS TV!

Ying Yang Racing BLACK will be qualifying on the HARDS in Rome.

Here are some snaps I took from Monday night's epic Monaco race.

 

[hatfield]

lol at the shot of me sideways like I have some skill or something. Actually it was because of damage sustained when the Aston hit me going into the braking for that corner

ORS GT | SEASON 1 | PRE RACE BRIEFING

For round 3 we head over to Rome /Reverse for a 3 x 20 lap sprint race.

The standard ORS white line rules apply. If you are found to be cutting corners consistently or frequently then you will be penalised by the stewards. Penalties can range from point deductions, 1 race bans and up to disqualifications from the entire ORS GT season 1. Ensure you have read all the rules in the opening post (page 1).

Regarding the pit entry you may enter at speed without penalty. When exiting the pits be mindful of cars approaching. The car behind has right of way so please use common sense to avoid any collisions.

If you find yourself with heavy damage please stay off the racing line to ensure you do not become an obstruction for those around you. Be aware of your position on the track relative to your fellow races at all times.

You must ensure your car is set to the ORS GT Specifications as shown on page 1 before scrutineering begins. Once scrutineering has started you are prohibited from entering the tuning screen. Failure to comply will result in an immediate -15 point penalty each time you enter the tuning screen. Failing after race scrutineering will incur a -25 point penalty.

The following drivers need to ensure they are carrying the below ballast for all 3 sprint races Monday night.

GTP_JTV - 70kgs (1350kg)
redness-63 - 25kgs (1405kg)

Failure to comply can results in 1 race bans to removal from the series.

Now finally all drivers must make sure they submit their tyre choice for qualifying/race start by 11:59pm tonight. Once your tyre choice has been submitted you cannot change it.

Regards,

Oni

[Rotamasta7]

Chan man, is it still parc ferme in between sprint races???

 

[Oniichan]

There is still the little 5 minute break if people want it and the reverse grid for the following races (2 & 3). However during all this time you cannot go into the tuning screen. If you need to change something like your top speed isn't correct you can make the change but will suffer a point penalty.

 

[hatfield]

hards for me.

 

[Mic_Col]

Just to quickly ask a question.

With the sprint round, specifically the tyres. I did a read through of the rules on pg1, it didn't really answer my question.

My current reading of it is that you've got to use both RH and RMs some time during the night. So does that mean you can use RM + RM in 2 of the races as long as you use a set of RH in the third.

Is that right??

 

[Oniichan]

That is right Mic.

 

[hatfield]

But post 1 says:

"During a sprint race the ‘use all tyre’ compound rule does not apply"

also:

"1x Racing Soft (entire season)
2x Racing Medium (per race)
3x Racing Hard (per race)"

So considering the above, we have 6 sets of mediums and 9 hards for this 'round' which has 3 'races'

 

[Oniichan]

Thats a negative hatfield. 1 race = 1 round. A sprint round has 3 races in it but its still classified as 1 race.

So you only have 2 mediums to use out of 3 races.

 

[hatfield]

ok well I have changed my starting tire a few posts above to hards

 

[Mic_Col]

But post 1 says:

"During a sprint race the ‘use all tyre’ compound rule does not apply"

Pretty sure that the text you've quoted is there due to a 'cut & paste' from previous season's rules text. There's a lot for Oni to do for each season so I can see how it can happen.

In previous seasons you were required to use all 3 tyre compounds in each race. This is the first season with the RS compound being a magic bullet, one off.

Okay just noticed that Oni got a reply in.

 

[Moon95g]

Hards 4 me

 

[Lost-on-drugz]

Wildcard drivers still start on hards oni? Or they have to submitt tyre choice?

 

[jtv90069]

Mediums thanks Oni

 

[waynz]

Lone wolf will start on Hards.

 

[Oniichan]

Wildcard drivers still start on hards oni? Or they have to submitt tyre choice?

Your free to choose your tyres mate.

 

[hatfield]

i can hit the 107's on mediums when pushing but for consistency I will probably be in the 108's so lagging around the back of the field again lol

 

[Mic_Col]

Hards for me thanks.

. . . so lagging around the back of the field again lol

Probably best to avoid the L word.

ORS GT | ROUND 2 | RACE INCIDENT​

Jol and Moon - Tunnel incident - Final Lap.

A final lap incident was logged for investigation where by an overtaking manoeuvre performed by Jol on Moon resulted in the gain of position while Moon had minor contact with the wall and loss of position.

Prior to the overtake in the tunnel. Moon runs a little wide at the right hander and gets a less than ideal exit. Jol, following closely behind has a good apex at the same corner, is earlier to 100% throttle, and with technically superior car speed by default over the GTR - gets a run on Moon in the short straight to the entry to the tunnel. Moon sensing a potential threat looming, moves to the middle of the road reducing the gap on the right hand side to the tunnel wall, however Moon doesnt close the gap completely...

As both drivers enter the right-handed-tightening-tunnel-radius corner they are, in affect, side-by-side. We observe Jol's speed is now too high to take the corner without using some of Moon's side of the road (despite a momentary lift of throttle), and Moon not expecting Jol to gain ground so quickly, hasn't reduced throttle to be able to negotiate the corner without using some of the inside of the track that Jol car now occupies...

Jol's greater momentum allows him to nose in front of Moon whilst simultaneously drifting to the outside of the track. Consequently, Moon has nowhere to go as Jol's car moves across and in front - ultimately reducing throttle and then applying brake to avoid serious collision with Jol and / or the outside wall.

In this instance, we rule this matter as racing incident given the side by side position of the cars on turn entry. We note that Moon did have opportunity to fully cover the inside line through the tunnel given the pressing threat to position. Further Jol's superior car speed, position and tire grip all lead us to conclude he has technically won the corner and the right choose his exit.

General observations not specifically related to the above.
While Jol and Moon's incident is adjudged a racing incident, drivers are reminded of their general obligations to ensure they are balancing competitive aspirations against giving fellow drivers enough racing room in the spirit of ORS fair racing regulations.

Any questions, don't hesitate.

Cheers,

Jas
