This race will be a rolling start following a formation lap and the procedure is as follows:

*It will be the pole sitter's responsibility to complete the first lap at a pace that allows the rest of the grid to follow comfortably
*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: 20:00 BST (30 mins)
Qual 2: 20:30 (15 mins)

Password: see above
(2) Driver lists can be found on the championship standings page

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 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.

Well, new physics for the CDP and the GTR3 cars which should make it interesting. Might even be able to include some LMP2s if all goes well  Smiley

Those nice people at Raceroom have now given us some more cars to play with in the new P2 prototype class which I'll be including for the remaining races of this series Smiley

The Chevy Daytona is now joined by the Radical SR9 Judd, Radical SR9 AER and the fictional DMD P21 and Mistral M531.

I've done some testing and I'm happy that the group is well balanced, although this could vary slightly between tracks. Please note that the fuel usage and fuel tank capacity has changed for the Chevy Daytona so make sure you do some testing to decide your strategy  devil

The GTR3 class is unaffected by these changes. (Edit) Please note that because of the physics update your old setups won't work. You'll need to reset them to default in the garage and start again

Race announcements have been amended.

Gents

AWESOME..!!! This game has become extremely cool. What a pleasure. I test the P2 cars this morning and with my wheel it's really become something intense. The feedback and the sound is stunning. I got the car really setup nicely, but going around this high speed track without making a mistake is going to be tricky.

I hope this game gets loads more people to it. If only they knew.

I am going to take a P2 car swap. Is that cool GT?

Also there is no practice server. I was hoping they gave us the option to use different fuel and tyre aggression in off line mode, But I am sure it will come

Enjoy

Doh!, Always thought the Radical cars available were the their normal ones, not the old LMP2 car. Interesting how you have two different engine configs available in the RAdical and the the two made up cars.

Will probably switch to the LMP2s but not had chance to try them out.

Checked practice server and all appears well, thanks Matt  Smiley

Uber cool Ant   Cool There is no penalty for changing cars or classes in this series.

Yep, both versions of the Radical competed in LM series events....

http://www.supercars.net/cars/3844.html

The Radicals and the fictional cars are great drives but the Chevy Daytona has more grunt. I like what they've done to the Daytona, it's more difficult to drive than before and feels a lot more truck like.

Also don't forget the newly revamped GT3 cars which now drive and feel even better than they did before and have been joined by the P4/5 Competizione  wub

Now all we need is for us to start getting decent turnouts for these races.

Hmm.. alots changed in the patch. Not sure i'm confdent to take an LMP especially round Sonoma, FFb feels different. Been doing some races there in pCARS but not a big fan of the place, especially the first RHer.


Wheres this FFB monitor? cant see any reference in the FFB menu or key options.

You need to select the secondary controler and select a key to pop the window... I used the letter F... for ffb...

Yes Oscar, 60 minutes races for these events except for the Aquila series which is 40 minutes.

FFB has taken a big step forwards with this update imo but it does take some tweaking to get it right. Each wheel will be different so it's not much use posting settings but there are some good pointers on the Sector3 forums that can help. In the steering settings there is now a separate FFB multiplier which you can set to remember the strength for each car which is very useful.

Hmm, your right, the DP is alot nicer to drive compared to the first Spa race we used them. Now i'm not sure what to drive!

I have noticed you cant adjust the fuel of the other LMP2 cars though when practising.

I think the 2 classes adds an extra dimension to the racing even without big grids but we'll see how it goes. Maybe a P2 series could replace the Aquila for next season.
