Mehehehehehe....
 
By the looks of it, count me out for now. I have been up since 3:30 my time this morning. Even if I make it, I will probably be in no condition to compete. I will enter if I can make it.

So I hope my team mate can make it, getting a 1-2 for Audi will be great in a field of 8 GT cars :sly:

So here is my Microsoft Paint interpretation for Monza's corner cutting issue...
picture.php


Summarized: If you dont think a F1 driver would do it.... DON'T DO IT.

A lap of Monza in a F1 car so you can watch it at speed:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cg8w0J-heD0

And a onboard lap: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbpAAlMOEys

Notice how he has 2 tires on the blacktop at ALL times... That's the rule we will follow.

Today's race will be 30 laps +1 formation lap.
 
I'll be there if I'm allowed to be. I did a quick 3 lap blast on Daytona road to see what I can do in the Camaro and got a Pb of 1:45.8 but I don't know how fast that is..

Also fixed the table to how it should look.

Edit: Also on corner cutting OLR applys yes? I.e kerb is track and cutting is 4 wheels past the kerbs?
 
Mel-alcohol-y? No, I don't think that's appropriate. :lol:




Anyways, that's the rule I always follow, polarbear, thanks and +1!

I think you can take my teammates spot tonight:
 
I never use more than the curbing. Some people put their car on the green, which is out of bounds IMO. I can see jumping it by overshooting it, but not to gain any advantage.
 
Yes Polar, not sure if your rules are the same but these are the rules we use in PURE for Monza. Wardez did this himself by OLR rules.

These are the track limits for Monza:

-----TRACK BOUNDARY IMAGES-----
Green checkmark = clean. Red x = dirty.

TrReO.jpg
GgIBf.jpg

Turns 1 chicane. Stay on the red and white. Your angle of attack will be looked at closely.

Be very careful coming into T3 chicane Roggia. It's easy to get out of bounds in such a tight place. And yes we will utilize millimeter size tolerances when inspecting questionable lap replays, do not try to get fresh.

The black tar run off after turn 4 in the beginning of Lesmo is an easy place to have a sandwhich so staying clean is vital to keeping your lap going, not much science going on here and not much to gain from going off the red and white curbing - Cutting turn 5 will not be tolerated.

The run off in turn 5 can't be used for speed, as with T4's exit, so just stay on surface and you're fine - The more important part is your line back on track. You must get off the curbing before it ends and the green concrete keeps going. If you go back on track staying on the tar and crossing over the green concrete past the curbing your lap will be considered invalid. This goes for qualifying and during the race.

This is the proper line, though extremely close, in getting back on track after T5's exit.

This is Turn 7's first left kink curbing/green concrete pad and yes this is a bad lap. I was serious when I said millimeters - The partner image is a close shave, but definitely clean.

Now this is T7's right hand kink. Ascari is tough to get a good rhythm through, but if you're off like this, don't bother trying to save it. The second image is more tasteful and clean.

Ascari left kink exit.

Do not finish T7's exit by crossing the solid white line beyond the curbing - Join the track proper before the curb ends.


Turn 8/ Parabolica is impossible to cut to gain time so we won't worry about that, standard rules apply.


On to the pits:
lGzS2.jpg
8xKcy.jpg

Do not cut into the pits like this on entrance. You must take an intentional angle of attack when coming in out of the final turn. Stay inside the yellow line. We will hand out penalties for not doing so. If you're past the proper entrance and realize it when it's too late, it's better to just do another lap than receiving a penalty for pitting unappropriately.

8BxLi.jpg

On pit exit you must, again, stay within the yellow line. Then stay within the extended pit exit line (solid white) all the way until its completion at the 1st turn 100m marker. We will make sure you abide by this rule. It's to keep your acceleration zone away from those that may be coming in full speed into turn 1. Do this even if you're absolutely sure no one else is around on the straight.

Just stay to the right then after the pit line ends, and if the coast is clear, get on with the racing! You can almost feel that little pace car's happiness.


  • Make sure to stay on track at ALL times with at least 2 wheels touching white line / Red / White curb. Green concrete is not track. This is the way we are drawing out track boundaries for our race at Monza. We realize that there are alternate interpretations with respect to what is and what is not part of the curbing. But in our series the half of the curbing that is painted green in certain parts of Monza is treated the same as grass and NOT track area. The traditional two tire OLR rules apply and all questionable laps will be greatly scrutinized.

    You can not use run offs or tarmac of any kind to gain speed. You will be penalized heavily during the race and disqualified for having a dirty lap in qualifying.
    Just stay inside the rumble strips and course white lines.


  • Pit lane.
    Entry: Respect the white lines and yellow dotted lines that mark out pit entry. Do not dive into the pits from the straight. You must make a shallow approach to pit lane coming out of the last turn Parabolica.

    Exit: You MUST stay within the long pit white line until it ends around the 100M mark before turn 1. Just make sure to stay right when you enter the track until you are 100% sure that you will not cause an accident.
    General: When entering and exiting pits, the white lines are ment to be respected. Yes, you can cross the white line when entering and exiting the pits. But if an incident occur, the driver who crossed the white line (The one on track, or the one who comes out from the pits) will be held responsible, and a penalty will come as a result.
 
Pity I cant paint the Ferrari in Green & Gold ...:lol:

Or Gold body with chrome wheels that look out of place, ridiculous ride height and 10-10 camber. :sly: I'd call it, "12 year old drifting wannabe cool-guy" livery.

I was in a rally room, with a guy who did that to a Range Rover, yesterday. He definitely was trolling, because he was smashing into the host.


So, I trolled him back, and smashed him into a wall, where it jutted out. He left two seconds later, without a word. :lol:
