Driver lists can be found on the championship standings page (https://www.simracing.org.uk/smf/index.php?action=LM2R;group=559)


Notes:
(1) It's best if all drivers can make sure they are connected before the Qualifying session as drivers on track during qualifying will not see
cars that join after they are on track until they go back to the garage.
(2) Please make sure you are fully aware of the SimRacing.org.uk Rules (https://www.simracing.org.uk/index.php?pid=7) especially the
rules about in-game chat messages.
(3) You will need to install Race Room Racing Experience from Steam, and have the Euro and American Track Packs for this series (And maybe another non pack track occasionally)
(4) Please exercise caution when pitting as some tracks have a speed limit.

(5) Please follow the SROUK guidelines for using kerbs etc. Please keep 2 wheels on the track surface (kerbs do not count as track surface)
Excessive cutting of corners will seen as cheating and the results may be altered to reflect this.

I don't think Spanner likes Monza and we have raced these there before  ;)

Salzburgring might be cool in the GTOs but I haven't tried them and we did race there Sunday  :-\ I dunno, maybe Mid Ohio or Sonoma Sprint?

We have done this combo before, and i personally hate monza, its too boring to drive on.


Bathurst has become my new favoriite track... though for these cars might be  abit too much!

Could go with sonoma sprint i supppose.

Bathurts with the GTOs would be a bit tricky, though it is also one of my fave tracks.
Sonoma with GTOs is doable, I did acouple of laps.
but I have gone for an easy life with the DTM92 instead.

Matt, you have called this event Sonoma Long but the track specified in the OP is Sonoma Sprint.

And the Calendar says it's Monza

EDIT: Pm me and I'll try to sort it  ;)

Yep, Because our system never seems to recognise the R3E variants, I am forever having to edit
Tudor's Sunday results and the Thursday ones as it refuses to accept the results file unless I set it as the full variant
even when the variant we have used in game is the same as in the list. I suppose we could ask Dave to
add all the R3E variants, but I have been hacking it since we started, and sort of got used to it.
Monza JUnior I think was one, where the list said Monza junior, but the results said wrong track.
Mid Ohio, Sonoma and Hockenheim are the same, in fact I think most of the non full track variant don't work.

Oh, and I've either never figured how to, or I am unable to edit the calender. Clive used to complain about that
in P&G, don't think I ever was able to sort that one, so if you can, please do, if it's just me being thick
educate me  :helpsmilie:

In the Calendar, click on the little red star before the event name. This lets you manually edit the event details (I've done it so you don't need to).

So this event is on the Sprint track?

Yes it's on the sprint track. Only we can see what's in LM2. the race announcement page has what we will be using.

The Opel is my fave most of the time, it has power and is more drivable

Had some fantastic racing with you all this year. Thanks for putting all this on for us Matt, even more appreciated as you struggle to make many of our races  8) Thanks also to those behind the scenes for keeping things ticking over so smoothly.

I look forward to racing with you all next year. Season's greetings  :rockon:

Yep, We have had some great fun races, particularly when lots of people turn up  :thumbup1:
4 Series next year, and unusually I have spent the last 2 days entering event details
the WTCC is done up to November, the others are at least 3 months worth, and I will
do more of those in Jan. We need to do some more advertising when I can get round to it
and see if we can attract a few more new faces with these different series.

Merry Christmas to all and yours

Qually looked really tight until GT spoiled the party going 9tenths quicker :( Had no idea what to do at the start and what i did wasnt very good! But managed to keep my nose ahead of Matt only letting Picnic through but then went in to the final corner quicker than him and we both spun, sorry Pete. We both managed to catch up to Matt but just couldnt seem to close up enough. GT you need ot learn to drive slower!

It is a shame more people dont join us, but it is hard to keep people when we can be of differing pace. Annoyingly RD seems to be sucking people up but isnt it a pay to drive service?

Your services are much appreciated, both GT and Matt.

Yep, RD seems to be doing very well with Raceroom even though the events appear to be very ad-hoc and unrelated to each other. It would be great to have a few more racing here but personally I'd rather have a small quality grid than a grid full of tossers!

RD is pay to play but I'm not sure what the quality is like or I might be tempted to try it myself. By doing so, maybe we could attract a few more racers here as long as our evenings don't clash.
