Practice: 20:00 (30 mins)
Qual: 20:30 (15 mins)
Race: 20:45 (40mins)


Cars allowed: GTR3

Time of Day Setting: 13:00
Weather: Dry

Start: Rolling start
Tyre wear: Normal
Fuel consumption: Normal
Pit-stops: Compulsory Pitstop for two Tyres (fuel is optional) See pitstop rules below

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 relevant Track Packs for this series
(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.
(6) Start procedure
*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

PITSTOP RULES

1. During timed races the mandatory pitstop window opens 3 minutes into the race and closes 3 minutes from then end. There will be a prompt at the top of the screen to remind you.

2. The pitlane speed limit is 60 KPH. The section of the pitlane which is covered by this limit is highlighted at the start and finish by a white line on the tarmac and a traffic cone at either side of the line.

3. If you drive in this section between 60 & 100 KPH you will get a drive through penalty. If you go over 100 KPH you will get DISQUALIFIED FROM THE RACE

4. You must change at least two tyres during the pitstop, Fuel is optional.

5. You can preset your pit strategy before the race or change it on the fly during the race

6. If you map the starter and ignition buttons you will have to stop and start the engine manually during the pitstop (my advice is to unmap the buttons so that the game starts and stops the engine for you during the stop)

7. Make sure you have the 'PIT SPEED LIMITER' AND 'PIT REQUEST' buttons mapped. Towards the end of your inlap press the 'Pit request' button (if you do not do this the pitcrew make you wait for an extra 5 seconds before they start the pitstop)

8. Make sure you have slowed down to 60KPH before the cones and engage the pitspeed limiter.

9. If you want to change your pitstop settings during the race you wil need to map the 'Pit stops' section buttons. when setting the fuel and tyre options (before or during the race) make sure the box is highlighted green or it wont carry out the command during the race!

10. The following link has some useful info on the subject:
https://www.racedepartment.com/threads/pit-stop-tutorial-june-2017.137144/

11. I would avise everyone to practice a few stops off line, but remember you must have the session set to 'GET REAL' otherwise it automates some of the pit functions.

as usual these days small grid, so I just ended up hotlapping till I smacked a barrier then just limped around for the last few laps. Next race is the final round of this series, 40 min mini enduro at Spa, awesome track especially in the GT3's, but not holding my breath that we will get many more people turn up  Sad

looking to 2020, is anyone interested in DTM 1992 for a series?

Yep, the same 3 of us as last week.. Good race until the pitstop, which I totally screwed up - I wasn't planning to stop that lap but saw Geoff head for the pitlane, so thought I may as well follow him in. That spontaneous change of plan messed me up however as I forgot that I hadn't pre-requested the stop, forgot to turn off the engine, and had the wrong strategy selected (added fuel unnecessarily). Apart from that it went quite well..  Roll Eyes Lost about half a minute, which was a shame. Couple of spins at the end too which was annoying. Ah well, first half was good fun. Congrats Geoff and Stephen.

DTM 92 always fun, but we've been running those a lot on Thursdays. There is a big GT3 update coming this month, plus some more new content so maybe wait and see what that brings? I'm generally up for anything in RRE however.

DTM 92 has run as one of the Thursday series for years, and will be in 2020 along with Group 5, and probably NSU

Indeed  Grin

Results done.  angel

It's been a challenge for a while now to get enough people to make the races fun for all skill levels using R3E
I've looked at AC, P Cars, Rfactor 1 and 2, and non except maybe AC offer the same good racing with
reasonably matched car groups. And R3E cars mostly drive well. I have tried advertising in forums etc
but we have never moved away from the same stalwarts who enjoy our series. In fact we have lost a few
along the way. Spanner hasn't come to a Thursday event for a while, Eck and Pete and Larry as well.
Pete is physically out of commision for a while though. What does the rest of the world do?
I will run whatever works, though I like R3E, it's easy to admin, most of the cars drive well. it suits
league racing well, what more can people want.....   Roll Eyes

Good race with Frex until the pitstop then as he said he lost a shed load of time, had a comfortable run to the finish after that.

I have tried advertising in forums etc

I have noticed a few people on the Sector3 forum recently asking where they can join races, maybe worth advertising there again for the new year series. If you want I can post on there & point people in this direction, even if we only get 2 or 3 it is progress.
