Excessive cutting of corners will seen as cheating and the results may be altered to reflect this.

*There should be no overtaking or hard accelerating/braking
*Drivers should avoid getting too far behind or too close to the driver in front
*Approximately 20 seconds before crossing the start line the pole sitter should slow down to a speed of no more than 50mph (80km/h)
*Each following driver shall close up directly behind the driver in front also maintaining a speed of no more than 50mph (80km/h)
*The pole sitter should maintain that speed until they cross the start line and then accelerate away to start the race (lap2)
*Each following driver should only accelerate when the driver directly ahead does (they do not have to wait until crossing the start line)
*No overtaking is allowed before crossing the start line at the completion of the formation lap

Practice server is up for tomorrow nights race

Good evening,

Question for the rolling start is it single or dual lane?

Hi,
Its single file

Sorry for the tap Bill. I couldn't work out which way you were going  :-[

pffff, totally no pace. Espacially after 15mins, long struggle for the next 25min.

Really sorry for the guys being hindered during lapping  :-[ :-[

Race to forget, don't know why?  ???

That’s OK. I screwed up the start forgot it was a rolling start apologise for giving the car in-front a nudge.  :oops:

Congrats on the win Geoff, great pace. I couldn't believe how quickly you closed back up to me, in the end I didn't fight too hard for too long as it was always my plan to drive to a lap time.

I think Mid Ohio is a bit of a strange track as being on it only seems to get me half a second a lap over driving to a lap time but because the car moves around more the tyres don't last anywhere near as long. Driving to 1:24.3-5ish meant my soft tyres lasted well.

Well done Martin as well on the podium, I couldn't touch your qualifying time and in the race you were never far behind in case I made a mistake.

 :) :) Thanks for  a great race nice and clean could not match the pace of top 4 drivers will have to get a wheel & Pedals auto gearbox a bit slow. Shout out to Dieter for not diving up my inside at he hairpin great race craft and patience.

After messing up the first braking zone (again ::)) it was then a case of drive it like you stole it & pray the tyres last. Used the soft tyres this time & it was only really the last 3-4 laps that the fronts started to lose grip which allowed Glenn to close the gap, another couple of laps & I think I would have been in trouble.

Grats to Glenn & Matt on the podium.  :clap: :clap:

No probs  ;D, had no damage. Thought already you forgot it was a rolling start  :P

Good pleased there was no damage. ;D

Enjoyed that, running with the fast trio at the front, but then somehow managed to kiss a barrier on corner entry and spun. Dropped me out of the battle which was a shame, but still had some fun through the field. Congrats to Geoff and podium.
