Also, in regards to long beach as much as I hate street circuits it does suit the cars quite well so might be worth including some where or even an extra round. You could swap spa and Bathurst for long beach and just do spa as a finale to the championship. Worked well in the past for ph championships.

As there's no Kia in BTCC, is any Kia racing or rally car paint ok?
It doesn't have to be an actual btcc replica just something that looks like it belongs on a btcc car, any race style livery will do I should imagine.
Yep, any BTCC or race style paint will be great smile

Sorry dude but people aren't so keen on racing at weekends and I have to arrange it when most people are available.

I'd love you to be able to take part as you're one of the originals from when I first got involved in PH racing.

There's one space left, can you seriously not make it home for 9.15pm??

To record race results, lap times etc tomorrow night I'll be using my camera on my mobile and as back up I'll also use the game DVR feature but it'd be useful to have one or two others take pics too as we will need to work out who needs to be where on the grid for the first race.


For the qualifying session I'll set the race for 4 laps instead of 3. After you finish your 3rd lap please pull to a stop at the end of start/finish and wait. This will allow me time to take a picture of the lap times. Once I've done this I'll let you know and I'll then need you to quit back to the lobby. Please do not finish the 4th lap!!!! This will leave the lobby points at zero for everyone which means that when I change the lobby settings for the reverse grid race it will position you on the grid in the correct position based on where you finished in the race. I hope this makes sense even though what I've just written probably looks like inane ramblings! Lol

OK...issues. You cannot set grid by lobby points. Yes I know...its stupid...but that is what T10 have given us.

If you want to do qually then the best way is to do it as you suggest but when it comes to the race you call out the positions and everyone leaves in that order and drives to their grid slot on a form up lap. Once formed up you make a note of the time and say "We are going at XX:XX". That way everyone knows when to go.

Clutch users will need to note you need to keep clutch in and handbrake on or you will roll.

BALLS!!

Cheers for that Dan smile

Formation laps it is then, leaving the grid when your position is called out will definitely be the best way forward. Thanks turn10 hehe

Any volunteers for taking pics of the laptimes etc with camera phones please??

Thanks on both counts!

Hopefully this update will mean an end to my controller having a fit when I use my headset.
