RACE START: RED, Then go on GREEN

Practice: 19:20 (GMT) (60 mins)
Qual 2: 20:20 (20 mins)
Race: 20:40: 21 Laps (~ 40mins)
Cars allowed: GT40 MK1 (not Gulf), Cobra 427, Daytona Coupe, Ferrari 275 Speciale, Lotus Elan.

N.B Car list will reduce by one car choice each event, the most popular car will be dropped from the list, if a tie, then the one with the most points of the tied cars will be dropped

Championship Standings

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 especially the
rules about in-game chat messages.
(3) You will need to install Power and Glory v3.1 from:  http://www.gtlw.co.uk/
(4) Watch our for pit lane speeding, some tracks support this.
(5) Please follow the SROUK guidelines for using kerbs etc. Please keep 2 wheels on the track surface most of the time (kerbs do not count as track surface)
Excessive cutting of corners will seen as cheating and the results may be altered to reflect

There are:
4x Very fast tracks, 4x Medium , and 4x slower/tighter tracks
And pitstops are only at half the events

There are 12 Events, and 15 cars, so there will be a choice of 4 cars at the last event.
The Le Mans Finale is the "revived" version, and (force field on) it's the one with the chicanes
After the way the last one turned out I have no choice.

Rough guide to track Pace and which events have Pit Stops:

Faster: Barcelona (Stop); Paul Ricard;  Spa (Stop); Le Mans revived (Stop);

Medium: Melbourne (Albert Park);  Imola (Stop);  Interlagos;   Mexico 67;

Slower: Hungaroring (Stop);   Keimola;   Portimao (Stop);  Albi 2006;

This is one of those tracks where Note 5 comes into play methinks..........

yep, we have been here before, the greyish parts of the track outside the white lines are track surface to me
the grey green areas are also track surface. (SOme may argue that point, but experience says that there
is no point trying to police it as it just makes the race pointless and tedious.)
The really green stuff is grass, that is not track surface  Roll Eyes
The white concrete half tyres will kill you if you get too brave with cutting corners.
Keep two wheels on the "track surface" at all times.  angel

I do like this track, has a really nice flow to it, can tell it was an F1 track from the good old days  Cool
It's made for a 60's Porsche with these flowing curves, in fact I think I had a shock win here back in the popular old GTL days in a 911  Smiley
Only tried the Fezza 275 so far, feels good but bet a nicely driven Cobra will have the edge. Wish I had enough spare time to get the rhythm to do this place justice.

LOL, I put just two wheels on the green bit and ended up with the lap not counting.  This track takes care of itself!

Clive is right. Some corners the cut track detection is quite harsh, others it is very relaxed
Do a few laps and watch out for cut track warnings or you may be annoyed in the race
when you get a stop and go.

.......... or you may be annoyed in the race
when you get a stop and go.

Or you may get annoyed because you didn't notice the SnG and then get disqualified.   Roll Eyes

I also like this track.  It was the venue for my first ever on-line GPL race.  And I finished with all my wheels still on the car!

Cobra is fun!

And me please!!!!  Grin

I take it that everyone is steering clear of the GT40 & saving it for Le Mans.

Talking of Le Mans, there is a new version of the current track available at NoGrip:

http://www.nogripracing.com/details.php?filenr=40901

I haven't actually tried it yet, but it may be a bit more realistic than the old FrankF55 based revived one we normally use.

I'll probably be wheeling the Elan out of the garage again. And expecing a high attrition rate (again) with those concrete half tyres..

WARNING

I don't know if setting the server is different to setting up a race weekend on my pc but when I set the race duration to 21 laps, PnG gives me 22.  

See what it says before the start and put an extra spoonful in if required.  Grin

EDIT:  Practice server seems to be able to set 21 laps so perhaps it's just me.  Roll Eyes

I'll be there if at all possible, but for how long this time I wonder. I might break my current short-duration record of 1½ lap Grin

After a period of absence, I'm back in the wars today.  Smiley

Question: I've noted that cutting a corner in practice results in a lap being scrubbed.  In the race, would this result in a 'stop-n-go' penalty?
