I think it's been mentioned elsewhere but we've split the weeks the Masters and Academy Endurance race runs due the disappearing car problems caused when the server compresses the replay. So yes, Masters this w/e and Academy the next. Sprints remain as before due to the smaller size of the replay files.

Did we define now if Academy can join Masters and vice-versa? If so, in what cars? G3 ? Or any and do not score points?

Thanks Picnic and Dave. I missed the announcement as i was out of the country for a couple of weeks.
So was there a decision made on what people started talking about in the announcement? ie as TT says above.

I was hoping to get the first race of this year out of the way first to see if the full time reshuffle and a few new drivers would bolster grid numbers up a little first. We're not 100% keen on Academy drivers running in the Masters in G2 or G3 (or indeed scoring classes) in case they end up as mobile chicanes. If we end up with a fair number of spaces free in the Masters race then we will probably allow Masters into the Academy race in G2 or G3 cars and look again at what we do with the Masters race.

BeRacing have postponed their GT race, which was due to start a couple of hours ago. I'll try again in a few minutes but if it's still down we'll have to postpone I'm afraid.

Does make you wonder why they force even Direct IP connections to use the lobby. Oh well that's just the way the cookie crumbles.

I think it may be like Racemore.........If people slag them off then they can pull the plug whenever they want to and there'll be nothing we can do about it. Having the online side always going through the lobby will mean if Simbin can't take the stick for messing up, then they can get their own back by stopping us using their game.
