Defo in if it's a Sunday night, but won't be able to do Wednesdays.
What's the score if someone can't get into a room?
I tried several times to get into the rooms last night, and only got in for 2 races. One of which the screen went black for about 2 minutes, then I started 1m30s behind everyone else from the pit lane!

Ian, just save the replay of each race and if anyone raises an off the road moment / cutting corners then the replay will give you said evidence and penalise accordingly. La Sarthe is terrible for this.
Are there replays for online races? And can they be saved?Could possibly be up for this if after 8pm, I think I'll be great

ETA we may need 2 rooms for this, as there are a few regulars for the 400/1200 that havent put their name down yet! (Blade etc)

Other restrictions & aids
Sports soft tyres
no race cars, race car modification or aero modifications.
ABS only
Rules of conduct
i think we're all pretty respectful of what is acceptable and what is not in terms of contact, if you punt someone off the track and you know you are at fault then man up and let them rejoin in front of you, it's a good way of saying sorry we want to avoid people getting taken off and getting wound up as much as possible as it ruins the game, going at 8/10ths rather than 10/10th is a good idea, especialy at the first corner! it will happen of course but lets try
Corner cutting with 2 wheel still on track is allowed as is the occasional mistake but consistent corner cutting to gain a timing advantage will fall to the voting hammer of the other players and a review of replay (which will be saved after each race)
Disclaimer
being a complete novice at this, any additions or input from people on what's listed above would be gratefully received
ps - I think the unstable network is something we are just going to have to live with tbo, we are all in the same boat in terms of having trouble connecting, if someone is trying to get on we can always delay for 5mins to help, i will have my laptop to hand as many of you do, so posting on PH or IM? any suggestions?

You can have my spot as I can't commit to Sundays once I'm back at uni. I'll be a reserve if there's any spots going on a particular week. You're in number 6 now.PSN: TheStig44

I'm going to do my upmost to make sure the room is started on time each week, if not I will leave a post for someone else to set up.
One thought though, does anyone think that me being in france with a fairly poor BB speed will hinder progress? or are we better off with someone a little better endowed (BB wise)
Fartgalen said:
Why penalise 1st, 2nd and 3rd places with mods removal, if race 2 is reverse grid ?
And I thought aero was not allowed ?
it works well at = the field for the whole of the 2nd race, otherwise the faster guys get straight to the front pretty quick with same results as R1, gives slower drivers a fighting chance of a podium finish, weight penalties would be better but they're not possible unfortunately.And I thought aero was not allowed ?
Edited by Fartgalen on Wednesday 5th January 13:10
Didn't know that on the aero, I will remove if that was the case on original format, Y2? ...goes to remove wing
Edited by Pvapour on Wednesday 5th January 13:18
We’ll need to do some testing on the bhp impact of modification removal. It might well be that because of the specific car you race the loss of a sports exhaust (possibly going from a titanium one to standard) on a turbo’d car could have a much bigger impact than doing the same downgrade to a naturally aspirated car. This could influence your choice of car.
We don’t want the situation where drivers are deliberately not winning races or even coming 2nd / 3rd because the reward for a podium place is a big loss of power for the next high speed race. Also, what happens if the car you are running doesn’t have a race filter / exhaust / ecu? It looks like this is the ideal car to have for this championship.
As fartgalen says, can we not stick with the reverse grid set up? This is a lot easier to manage and not open to users cheating in that sense as I don’t know a way of verifying specific mods on other cars apart from my own.

If people decide to hold back in R1 and not win a race so they are quicker for R2 it makes no difference as someone else will come 1st and get those points, not sure I see the gain tbo.We don’t want the situation where drivers are deliberately not winning races or even coming 2nd / 3rd because the reward for a podium place is a big loss of power for the next high speed race.

not sure which cars 'dont' have those areas adjustable? I've not come across any std road cars that dont have this adjustable, race cars yes but not std cars.
see your point on the bigger losses for the turbo cars, again, if its something that needs to be considered when choosing your car then so be it, adds more pros and cons to each car.

All cars do, what I am trying to say is that if you have a car that is 400bhp and 1200kg without the specific mods named in this thread (exhaust, air filter and ecu) then you can finish on the podium and not be penalised for power.44quattro said:
