Title: UKGPL Season 34 (2019) 1967 F1 - Rouen - Jan 27
Post by: Billy Nobrakes on January 23, 2019, 10:21:41 PM +0000
Season 34 Graduates Cup – Round 2 –  Rouen

Round 2 of the Graduates Cup will take place at Rouen. A classic 60’s racing circuit, it did host the French Grand Prix but not in the 1967 season. It is, however, a Papyrus original. From its opening in 1950, Rouen-Les-Essarts was recognized as one of Europe's finest circuits, with modern pits, a wide track, and spectator grandstands. The circuit (which ran on public roads) had a few medium straights, a cobbled hairpin turn (Nouveau Monde) at the southernmost tip, and a few blind corners through a wooded hillside. The appeal was greatly enhanced by the climb from Nouveau Monde at 56 metres to Gresil at 149 metres.

Both Works & Privateers drivers will participate on the same grid. All drivers have the same tokens allocations. We will, however, run two championships, & separate points will be scored for each. The race will be moderated as a combined grid. Privateers are asked not to hold up a Works driver whilst being lapped, but you may race fairly for track position.

The important difference is that Privateers are permitted one reset with a compulsory Stop & Go (taken within two laps). Although the race setting is “Intermediate” Works drivers are not allowed to take a reset.

There are currently 18 full time & 7 reserve drivers registered. Reserve drivers should therefore wait until 21.05 UK time before joining the qualifying session. A grid slot will therefore be available for all full time drivers, provided they join before 21.05.

Server = UKGPL8
IP = see iGOR
Race date = Sunday 27-01-2019
Time = 21:00 UK time (21:00 GMT)
Track = Papyrus
Race length = 25 Laps (50 minutes)
Variant = 1967
60fps patch used   = 60fpsV2newmod
Damage Model = Intermediate
Qualifying time = 30-45 minutes

Driver lists and divisional rules can be found on the Championship Standings page  (https://www.simracing.org.uk/smf/index.php?action=LM2R&group=665&theme=6)

There is no Red Zone. Moderating will be on reported incidents only. Remember that lap 1 incidents carry an additional penalty place.

The chassis token system is explained on the Works  / Privateers standings page. Please ensure you choose a chassis that is within your budget, which can be seen by hovering the mouse over your points total in the standings.

Privateer Drivers are permitted 1 Shift R followed by a Stop & Go in the stalls in pit lane within 2 laps (its does not have to be your stall). Failure to make a stop will result in a 30 second time penalty. If you require a stop & go on the final lap & are unable to complete a time penalty of 15 secs is added.

Privateer class drivers are;
Billy Nobrakes
Dave Curtis
Francesco
Pepe Higdon
Phil Thornton
Ricardo Valim da Silva
Everybody else are Works.

Please restrict chat to pit messages including at the end of the race until ALL drivers still racing have crossed the line.

  I can make a server available in case of passing the number.
could leave the privaters in separate server when there is an excess of drivers?

Jonny, thanks for the offer. It is definitely something we will consider. What we don't want is for someone to miss out. At the moment there are 25 entries for this series but more Works than Privateers. Out of 25 drivers it would be normal to expect about 20 to participate. Because it is now Friday night we will have to run the Rouen race with one grid. We might change for Round 3 but we need to sort out the administration first.

FWIW, I'll not be attending this race either, so one less entry to worry about. I'm still trying to get my race rig together, just had too many other things happen recently. Hope to be back on track soon.

Again the problem of only 4 gears plus other problem on the gas at the start.If i don't solve this problem i think to retire the car from the 67.

Rear ended by Dave Curtis on lap 1 just before Nouveau Monde hairpin.

Everybody knows this hairpin very often causes accident but nothing changes...

After Kyalami accident with mod66 on begin of race, I feel very disgusted !

Well, Terrible from me, All seemed good then a crazy 2 minutes.

Was following Dulima and Fulvio with Clive behind and clipped the grass at T1 spinning me off. Tried to find a spot to rejoin safely but unfortunately I was still in 3rd gear and all I did was slowly creep onto the track in front of Andreas (I think) sending us both spinning into the weeds. (Sorry, completely my fault). :( Then less than half a lap later I rear ended Billy when I was caught out by his braking point. At that point I decided I was more of a hinderence then a help to anyone so retired.

A bit of a shame as this might be my last race for a while other than fitting a few in as and when I can due to a family illness

TTFN
John.

Lucky surviving Pelle Buchners attack at R1, which took me the oportunity to work on Gregory, but I knew I couldn´t catch the 2 guys in front with my Honda. So I had a more or less relaxed race for P3 and decided early to just bring home the points.  So, all went well, very awaiting Tripoli!

Thanks to all involved for running this championship, great the full grid!

 I wanted to make a suggestion for you to analyze.
 I can bring more pilots, but some change is needed ,  can give server for privaters.
  we met before the chat race and had more than 20 pilots
separate runs works and privaters
if you have a maximum of 20, run all together.

Big Grats Magic, GT & Tim  :thumbup2:

Can't get hole for server replay, because would like to compare my replay with server replay, here happened a little too strange.
Regardless of replay, a huge SRY to Pedro in a total misunderstanding. Thought you were GT & couldn't understand you slowed down so early. After the race I said Sry to GT, but said we were not in contact & on my own replay I now understand much better.

Continues when I have server replay...
