What Day and Time Would be Best for you to make the Xfinity Race?

Are we racing?????
I'm really mad because course creator came out and I can't use it because I don't have an iPad or android tablet. Spent 2 years making a course crator and you have to have a tablet for it to work.
 
Yeah no custom tracks until they fix the pit lag glitch. We were racing on a custom track tonight and all of the lag was happening mostly during pit stops.

We're aware and already have procedure for when it does happens, yes. It is a little inconvenient, but in my eyes, and others alike. It's best to be running at these created tracks, compared to Motegi West, or Matterhorn, it's refreshing the series we have run multiple times, and prolonging the game life. Might as well use it regardless of minor bugs.

I think he's saying stay with the same schedule till the next stability patch.
 
No I was just saying that since our next race is at custom track and this could lead to a problem but its seems like you guys got it figured out.
The biggest things we experienced when people pit was certain drivers phasing back through the field, losing positions. Now, if you're talking about massive lag, causing others to crash. We hadn't seen that, but as for the pit lag, it will simply be courtesy to let who ever got sent back, by you, and depending on the situation, a caution may be called. This is all hear say on my part. We don't have it down to an exact science, I'll assume we'll have a better Idea after New Orleans., but that is the gist of it.

Yea, New Orleans will be a test race of sorts, a points race albeit. I've noticed 2 things on the custom tracks though.

1. The lag seems a lot harsher on larger tracks with more object on the side such as grandstands, forests, etc.

2. During a Race, it almost never happens unless someone pits.

So for New Orleans this next Friday, I ask you all to take it easy, and be considerate of your fellow racer, as I won't require people to give the lagged car the position back, but I will expect it as it would be common courtesy.

Regarding the Restart with Dcrimnal
Looking over, neither car will get a penalty, because even though I was ahead of him before he started to go, I never hit the gas before. And in regards to Dcrimnal, watch your restarts from now on, as you were going 68mph on the outside, and hit the gas fully at least 3 times after the pace car pulled off before you actually went.

That was me trying to get even with you it just didn't work at all...
 
After doing testing, it seems there's minor lag that only occurs at the Start/Finish line and Sector markers on tracks in-race, whereas the lag happens randomly at any time during Practice. I will be hosting a Testing session after the Daytona 500 tonight, I'd like at least 5 people there, as we will be doing 10-20 Lap races at every track to see if the lag is bearable at most tracks or not.

From what I saw racing, and being under caution, everyone I believe lead a Lap. As stated, this is unofficial, most laps lead will be added later.

At this point no one is in danger of being cut from the Chase.

Was a pretty fun Race when we weren't crashing. We'll need to work on that, as rules will be implemented more harshly next race. At this point, there are no standing penalties, they will be announced on Monday. Everyone have a great weekend! See you through the week and Saturday for the Drive Sober 250 at New Orleans Motor Sport Park. Any penalties, and official results will be announced on Monday!

Edit 1: For those not on the PCS Thread, it is right here, the OP has been fully updated to reflect the new schedule as well as revised rules.

CHANGES FOR THE XFINITY SERIES
-The 3 Drop Races will be replaced will 3 provisionals instead, this means drivers will get last place points (of the number of drivers who raced) if they fail to show up. Provisionals cannot be used for Double Points Races.
-Watkins Glen and the Jack Links Speedbowl will be dropped from the schedule so there will be 13 Races instead of 15, this is so the Xfinity Series has less Races than the Cup Series.
-Double Points Races have been changed to Races #4, #9, and #13.

FUTURE THINGS
I've been thinking about doing a TUDOR Style Series with there being 3 Classes
P (Autobacs Garaiya GT300 Base Model)
PC (Zytek Z11SN)
GTD (Z4 GT3, GT-R NISMO GT3, R8 LMS ultra Audi Sport Team Phoenix, SLS AMG GT3)
If you'd be interested please comment saying so, as I'd like a large field for any Multiclass Series.
 
Track idea?? Turn 1 indy, turns 2 3 4 chicane, short straight, 5 6 chicane, slight bend, 7 long carrousel, 8 hairpin, 9 kink, 10 long left, 11 12 13 14 double chicane onto pit straight.

I don't think I'd be able to make it a reasonable size but I'll try.
 
How I'm feeling after I had a great car but my Internet/PSN said Nope View attachment 460129
Don't feel bad, we stopped the race on Lap 56/125 after a couple more lag incidents. @BRRT_Angel mentioned getting a headache over the lag and quit. Due to the lag issues and being down to 4 drivers, (@Cole Brown was called away from the PS3 and was on pit road) we backed out. @trobes29 says that if the lag issues persist the track editor course may be dropped.
