Moderator's Report

This race sufered from a mass disco. Therefore the race is considered as a "no-race" .
The result is void and we will attempt a re-run at the end of this season.

I think that the reason for the disco is unlikely to be the circuit as it is an original Papyrus track and can be considered "safe".

Back to power - Spa - classic track and all about holding the speed through the corners but finishing and crashing out from first are easy to get mixed up!  Remember that this championship is all about TEAM points so your choice of chassis will be important.

Teams can choose to run any cars they like, but in any race each all team members must drive different cars, so only one driver can drive the car that does not need to stop.

Pit stop times are listed below with a choice of a single long stop or two shorter stops... the choice is yours.

THIS RACE WILL HAVE A ROLLING START AND CARS ARE EXPECTED TO MAINTAIN THEIR GRID POSITIONS FOR THE FIRST LAP. THE POLE CAR WILL LEAD THE PACK AROUND AT A STEADY SPEED AND RACING WILL START AS CARS EXIT THE FINAL CORNER ON LAP 1.


"Please ensure you are aware of the new in-series penalties for this season. Details are here. Drivers incurring a penalty will receive a PM informing them of this."

First Pit Window is:   3 to 8   (13 to go on your pit board until 8 to go on your pit board)  
Second Pit Window is:   5 to 12  (11 to go on your pit board until 4 to go on your pit board).


Some useful information about pitstops. If you unsure about anything please post  a question and we will give you the answers.

1) We recommend the use of the small programme   "GPL WAIT"   .....link here This will time your stop for you and is simple to set up and operate.

2) Pitstops must be taken by coming to a halt in YOUR pitbox. That means where there is a black board with your racing name on it in pit lane.

3) To be sure that you are correctly in your pitbox approach your name board carefully with your car close to the pit wall. Just when the board vanishes STOP and you are correctly positioned.

4) If your stop is LESS than 30 seconds you can be a little less precise with your position as GPL will not disco you automatically.
    However, if your stop is MORE than 30 secs you need to be correctly parked in your pitbox otherwise at 30 seconds GPL will retire your car. THIS IS WORTH PRACTISING OFFLINE.

5) Stop n Go after a Shift-R must be taken as a separate stop and cannot be combined with your mandatory pitstop.

6) Priority in pitlane is given to cars that are moving. If you are about to leave the pits after your stop you MUST wait if another car is about to pass you in the pits.

T7 server is set to 15 laps Long race and listening on Igor on Console session with OpenGL_V2.

@ Sergio, Sam and Sky usually drive Ford GT MkIV and MkI so you have a nice choice, not the 910 I hope  Grin

Where is the GPL Wait link?? It seems to have been nicked.
Anyone need a driver for this race? I'll be available....just PM me or something similar.

OK, I don't know who made that up, but stopping at your board in the pitlane still takes you off the track and only after 20 seconds. I stopped exactly at my board, I was full stop on the brakes, I hit my GPLWait button and it switched to F10 view for the count, I never got the "press F1 for help" message which means I was right in my pit stall, and 20 seconds later it retired me. What a load of crap!!!

Can we please get less insanely long pitstops from now on? Those 3-4 minutes 1-stops are just impossible, even if I kept moving each 15 or so seconds without relying on the "proven" method above, I would run out of pit road to make the full pitstop. Otherwise I feel like I'm wasting my time with these series.

Yep same here. After getting discoed in the pits at my last GT race pitstop I was very careful to stop right at my board & as Hristo says 20 secs later I get kicked off. No "press f1" warning either. Worked fine in online practice (& I tried it out dozens of times there as others on the server can testify) but on the race server I get kicked. Got to agree with Hristo - feels like a waste of time preparing for these races only to get discoed in the pits every time you try & do a stop.

I stopped perfectly on my pit box but still got discoed without the "Press F1 for Help" prompt.

I think this was down to the revised pit boxes in qually.  I assume the reason the pit boxes were moved was to negate the need to do a full lap before doing a timed lap.  OK in qually but in the race GPL still had the pit boxes on the back straight - no good for pit stops.

I expect almost everyone will get discoed during pit stops.  Make the race null and void IMO.  A rerun should be considered for this race.

OK, here is a wild guess - the moved pitlane for practice (which BTW had terrible pit stall positions right on the ideal line and I ruined Evil's lap when I was entering the track) must have nullified the condition which keeps you on track when you're at your board in the original pitlane. I can't see what else the cause would be if not this, if you're so sure that the method of stopping at your board normally works.
