Race start procedure
​

We'll start with a standard grid start. No false start check. Pole sitter will lead an outlap at a leisurely pace (approx 100kph/62mph) until Stavelot. From Stavelot, it's the leaders discretion as to when they go full throttle. During this first lap, there's no need to form into two rows. Just don't overtake anyone.

This is to minimise/eliminate rolling start glitches and spread the pack slightly for the bus stop.

Hmmm I wonder where you got the idea for this...

Originally, I was going to run a one make series. 8 races. 8 one make sprints from around the world. As it is, I can't guarantee when I'll be able to host consistently, until after Xmas. So, I'll host this in the meantime.

S'all good, I'm (hopefully) catering to a very different mindset than your series.

Stick me down for now mate, 5pm my time, I really hope I can make it.....Looks fun!

 

[DesertPenguin]

I'm interested anyway, it's just there are so many things that are exactly the same and forgive me, but I can't help but notice these things.

That's fair enough, mate I've just checked all your settings, and there is a lot in common. If it works, it works, I guess. I was contemplating higher tyre/fuel wear. But, given that the 90 mins at Spa actually happened, I figured x1 would work well.

More than happy to have you, if you're not running an event on the 23rd.

 

[NoStopN]

I'll bite. But, we might want to do some kind of practice beforehand. If the server won't let me participate like this past weekend, that will allow someone else to jump in. For now, I'll take #17.

We're gonna wrap up our series on the 16th so yea I'll be there. Same tires too. A little while ago I started using RM as my default tire for Gr.3 and faster race cars. Tires x1 will last roughly 60 minutes if you're nice to them, but Spa has a short pit lane so you might as well change tires when you pit for fuel. I start at 90L and it lasts 30 minutes, 35 or so with fuel saving so 75L might be too little to start. This car has a small tank and burns it fast. Let's have so fun

 

[Sven Jurgens]

Sure I'll join. I should be better at Spa by then
I'll check out the car!

I'll be making a livery, as it gives me an excuse to make one for this car. See you there! I'll take #23

For sure. I'll be running one or two practice sessions as I need to learn Spa/the car. I'll keep you updated.

Aye, I did think that 75 might be a bit short. But, from my VERY limited testing, it doesn't seem too bad. Mediums are swiftly becoming my favourite tyre, with reasonable wear multipliers.

Sure I'll join. I should be better at Spa by then

You and me both

Fingers crossed, buddy.

[Pigems]

I’m in, Thanks for the invite! I’ll go with #11 if available.

 

[Drex124]

I'm interested, put me down for #7

 

[GOTMAXPOWER]

The last one was good fun so I'll put my name down here, I need to learn how to properly use the livery editor but I'm sure I will show up in something tastefully decorated in lime green and fluorescent pink with a number 83 on the side.

 

[NoStopN]

I've got the car on my main account (thanks prize wheel). Now to learn a new car while learning a new track. What could go wrong?

Once you open Pandora's livery editor, you'll never get your time back.

 

[Granadier]

Damn, this sounds like so much fun. I’m gonna have family visiting that weekend so won’t be able to join in the fun though. Hopefully I can make the next one if you host another.

 

[Chevy Heavy]

Count me in tentatively. I'll have to confirm with work that I can get that day off, shouldn't be a problem I hope. I'll take #3 please. I have a livery in mind that I've been wanting to put on this car, but never did. This is a good excuse to finally do it.

 

[Invisigoth]

I'd love to give it a go, but I don't know how I will go with a 5am start .

If I can make it, I'll take 13 .

Nice one.

 

[MaxAttack]

Whack me on the list but bear in mind I might have to pull out depending what's happening with my studies closer to the date.

#83, cheers.

Done, and noted.

The other Max has dibs on #83, though.
