RKL - Racing Kart League - Season 4 Reveal Thread

[Lizard]

Yes same weight and bhp.
Both types is what tom hinted to me during our little practice session.

 

[bdubclub]

For the season 4, both of the 125 should be allowed

Have not driven the new one much, but its got the same weight & BHP as the other 125 right ?

I agree, but maybe if one is faster than the other, maybe we could assign karts (for certain people) . Not that it would matter much, but it may. Also, if we could add a few laps, seems to me, the races are a bit short. Or if we leave the laps/distance the same, maybe add a 3rd race.

Exactly the same, which is why I've decided that we're having both.

You'd be one I'd put in the slower Kart

I wouldn't mind adding a few more laps too. Nothing too crazy, but a little bit longer would be good. Would prefer that to adding a third race.

Il add another vote to the more laps option.

On which day are the Races??

 

[harrison1476]

I'll join, 125s, yes^^ what days and what țime, weekends should work well

 

[bdubclub]

I voted for the 1 sprint 1 medium option, although I think we should have 1 or 2 select rounds where we run just one enduro. Thoughts?

 

[John Wells]

I think on the long tracks a couple of enduro races might work, well if you want to race in wet. Sprint, medium, format should work better on smaller tracks. A couple of more laps would make it possible for people that have made mistakes a chance to catch up.

I have done a couple of enduro races recently, they were mostly 30 laps, 3/4 of them 100% water and full damage. Just depends on how much time people have to race. Another idea maybe have the final of the championship, enduro with maybe double points.

I hope that's an acceptable time for you. 👍

 

[harrison1476]

Yeah its fine

Hey, just found out something about the new SPL (?) Kart. You can buy any kind of rubber for them. You guys all new, right?

This could affect the championship, wrt allowing both Karts. Unless you limit to Sports Soft.

You should test them, I heard that the racing soft tires make the karts push very bad, just what I heard though.

 

[harrison1476]

Wait.. You can change tyres on new spl? Cool ill test too sounds really cool, also you should post schedule up asap i wanna know what tracks we'll be running

I am currently talking to a few people about tracks for Next Season, all I can confirm is that Monza will on the Calendar again, as well as Kart Space ensuring that everyone has the DLC.

I can now confirm that Tyres for Next Season will be limited to Sports Softs.

If your racing too how can you check peoples tyres?

[kcheeb]

Forgot about that

 

[John Wells]

Just antother point, if your considering racing in the rain that it does get very slippery when your on sports tyres. In the enduro races, we had the opition, to change to intimate or full wets when water got between 20/100%. Maybe people can tes and see what they think?

I would like to see Autumn Ring Mini again if possible. I also really enjoyed Laguna Seca much to my surprise. That corkscrew is quite a challenge.

 

[Tom]

I hope everyone had a good Christmas. 👍

News:

We will now run a single lap qualifying session, whereby there will be one kart on track at all times. This may take longer but it will increase the chances of different drivers getting Pole Position. You will get 3 laps in total, one outlap, one hot lap and one in-lap. You will need to make sure that you do not exit the track after your lap has been completed, as your lap will be deleted from the timing screens.

 

[Lizard]

So your introducing the quali format that made F1 boring. Sweet.

I think this format could be good, puts the pressure on in qualifying, only get one lap so don't screw it up. Also after driving both karts, I can't really tell that big of a difference between the two as long as the tyres are the same. Can't wait till the new season, any thoughts about running teams??

Teams are confirmed for Season 4, you will need to run the same Model and Colour Kart. There will be 2 Drivers Per Team.

@Haitch - I don't think it will make this league boring, it adds unpredictability to the series, which is what we want.

I will announce via the mic who will be allowed out of the pit lane. It will probably be based on Championship Positions, which means you'll get first dibs.

So if it can be based on the position in the Championship fine by me 👍
