harmoniumShould ALL cars or just pole car be on start-finish straight?
If there's 16 cars, all 1 second apart, it would be a big pit straight...

harmoniumDid NOT think of that aspect
Haha The only problem with this is the guys who are starting at the back of the grid (I'm 13th) will be miles behind the leader come the first split.
It was like this on GT5P online, where you had to hope you appeared near the start of the grid with the rolling starts, other wise you didn't stand a chance
Oh yeah I forgot, is the grid flipped for the next race etc?
That will also help, if some of us don't have the pace, at least we can comfort ourselves with the thought that we will at least spend some time near the front and if someone is really quick, it will keep their excitement levels up
I see yes. It would be great going down to the last race, if there's like 3 title condensers all at the back, and they have to pick their way through the field
New start procedure one row rolling start
1. Start button will be pushed when everybody has left the track and is in the pits (not in the lounge!)
2. When start button is pushed everybody waits until host takes place in corner 1.
3. From there, host calls participants 1 by 1 (start order will be posted on forum before the race).
4. Pole position driver waits at Intermediate 1. All other drivers line up on one row behind him.
5. The driver who has to take place behind the host leaves enough space for him.
6. When all others have taken place, host takes his place and gives signal for take off.
7. EDIT: Pole position leads in a regular pace and can accelerate once he is on start-finish straight.
8. Space to leave: (check at finish line) at least 1 second between cars. Will be checked on replay.
If you get too close, you get a 15 seconds time penalty after the race.
9. Overtaking allowed after the exit of turn 1.

I hope this is clear for everybody, since fuji has a very long strait nobody should overtake someone at the start
I have a replay of a race-sim I just completed. I exported it to the PS3, then copied it to my USB, does anybody know how to get it from an unreadable file to a replay I can watch?
EDIT: Never mind, just discovered its impossible I'm sure that less fuel means faster times, as at he end of the race I was lapping 1 second faster than the equivalent lap at the beginning If anyone is interested I will post up how my pace was etc.
harmoniumLess fuel can mean faster times, I discovered last time that less fuel also means less weight, and therefore less downforce and grip, which then equalled more spins. But then again, I'm not exactly the best driver around, as I just got my DFGT
MindlessRiffDid some practice earlier today, got down to 1:39.4xx laptimes but couldn't get an absolutely faultless one down lol, ran about 15 laps on one set of tyres and by the end they were shot, I'm talking straight-line swerve and all here lol. If anyone pulls a one stop for this race I will be impressed !
Sorry guys, I've been a little bogged down lately. I'm just farming some credits now then I'll post my number and colour. And man, 16th on the grid, get it..
EDIT:
Sublime/Sublime green

Oh and what tuning have you guys got? I found once I RM'ed, it went to like 670bhp and had to rape the power limiter and add ballast to get to it to the rules.
Joshua1994Just re-quoting as I notice it hasn't been added to the OP.
I think the rules allow you to put what ever you want on the car, so long as it meets the criteria.
