Onto our next event, a new one for UKGPL, with Hristo leading the Works by four points over Tom and Ronnie holding the lead in Privateers over Bernie.
Subject to a viable number of entrants we are running two separate grids for Works and Privateers drivers this season. The Works will run on PRO Damage and Privateers will run on Intermediate Damage with the allowance of ONE shift-R reset. No Shift-Rs are allowed in practice unless authorized by the moderator. A Shift-R (fault or not) MUST be followed by a Stop & Go. A Shift-R for tyres/fuel is not allowed. Any driver taking more then ONE Shift-R OR failing to take a Stop & Go will be disqualified from the race result.

Reserve drivers should not join the server(s) until there are only 30 minutes of qualifying left. Please restrict chat to pit messages. Moderating will be by reported incidents only, however the moderators reserve the right to review any incident with a particular emphasis on lap one. The aim is to review the race the following weekend so incident reports should be submitted within five days of the race (ie the following Friday). We're hopeful most incidents can be resolved amicably and recommend a days deep breath with a replay review before posting. A sorry in the forum won't be taken as an automatic admission of guilt by the moderators.

MUST be followed by a Stop & Go. A Shift-R for tyres/fuel is not allowed. Any driver taking more then ONE Shift-R OR failing to take a Stop & Go will be disqualified from the race result.
With the token system chassis strategy will be a factor. A driver must have sufficient tokens for the chassis he drives in the race. Any driver who does not have sufficient tokens will be disqualified from the result and his tokens will be set to zero.
Chassis costs;Lotus 20 / Eagle 17 / Ferrari 15 / Brabham 10 / Cooper 5 / Honda 3 / BRM 0

67 Patch: The 1.3 Release of the 67mod can be used.
NOTE: Please ensure you join the correct server, due to the way we import if you start the race on the wrong server your result will not count.
IMPORTANT NOTE (5/12/10)As you will be aware the IGOR racelist has been down for some time. This has caused subsequent problems with race hosting involving drivers having to join direct via IP. From the moderators point of view there are extra problems I won't bore you with suffice to say we cannot fire up the remote servers in the usual way.
Tonights event
WILL go ahead but launching the servers may take longer then usual so please bear with me if things don't kick off dead on 9pm. I have tested the servers and they are both fine but can take a while to fire up.
A note of the IP's to be used will follow and will also be provided in chat.
AddendumIP addresses;

To avoid a Bandwidth Mismatch it's best to set your core.ini to 3/84 - 3/384 which should get you onto anything.
Also they probably won't go into the 'newspaper' section at the end of the race until I go in and manually save the replays and shut them. They will just sit on 'complete' at the end.
The Virginia International Raceway (commonly known as just "VIR") is a road course located in the community of Alton, Virginia.The track originally opened in August 1957 and as one of the first permanent American road racing tracks, VIR soon became a fixture on the SCCA circuit and a favorite among racers due to its high-speed straights, challenging turns and dramatic elevation changes. The track fell on hard times in the early 1970s, and that, combined with the fuel crisis of 1973, spelled the end for VIR. The track was shut following an SCCA enduro on October 13, 1974. It reverted to farmland for 25 years until it was redevoloped and reopened in March 2000.
