Season 36 Sport Cars Extra Fun Race – Daytona Road Circuit

Just in case anyone has GPL withdrawal symptoms over the holiday period, we will run a Sports Cars Extra fun race at the Daytona Continental 24 Hours circuit in Florida USA. The venue is famous for the oval used for the prestigious Daytona 500 NASCAR race and is one of the circuits to feature in the film "Le Mans 66" which is out on general release at the moment.

To add some interest and authenticity the race will include fuel stops. The refuelling patch is already built-in to the Sports Cars Extra mod so there is no need to download it; but the link does have some useful instructions on how to use the patch. The minimum number of refuelling stops a driver must take will depend on the chosen chassis. There is no maximum number of refuelling stops a driver needs to take. Drivers will need to devise their own refuelling strategy.

The minimum time a car is stationary in the pit stall is 5 seconds, so given that the refuelling rate is approximately 1.5 gallons per second, it isn't advisable to refuel with less than 8 gallons. Other than that, drivers are free to choose whatever refuelling strategy they like.

Intermediate damage rules will apply. Given that a reset will effectively refuel the car, it doesn't make sense to impose a S&G for each reset. Instead, for each Shift-R taken, a time penalty of 1 minute will be added to the finishing time.

I've set a practice server up on IGOR. For some reason the IGOR race list is not updating on my Windows 10 PC (my race PC) but it is OK on my server (currently running Windows 7). I suspect this is down to me so I need people to check their connections.

Please check IGOR and post here to let me know if you can connect.

If you can't connect via IGOR, try connecting via the GPL Multiplayer window using the IP in the race announcement. Post here to let me know if this works for you or not.

I've reinstalled SCx mod but it won't run with V2 rasterisers so I must have something wrong.  I'll have a look. Good job I tried to test the server!

My race list on iGOR still isn't working on my Windows 10 PC. If anyone else is having the same problems you should be able to connect via IP 77.102.28.179

Starting race server in 5mins

The gears problem again.Forced to use the Chap 2F because only 3 gears work but impossible to brake with the car at the end of the ring.
Any time i have lost the car. I don't know if was some setup on my wheel or other but during the braking a strong oscillation in the steering wheel.
last thing,since i have never used this car,i was without mirror(big handicup)

Interesting long race !
Should be nice to do the same kind of long race on Le Mans and Sebring tracks !

About my race, I choose Ferrari P4 quick and easy to drive. Unfortunately I had a very big accident with Francesco's Chap 2F out of control on first lap.
Curiously, I could continue without shift-R but it makes 20 laps before I understood I was running 1'53/1'54 per lap instead of 1'50/1'51... I should buy me a new brain !
So I did a shift-R and it was better.
Refuelling (3 times) were OK and finally I finished just 3/10 sec after Lance De Boyle ...a gap of 3/10 after 48 laps !
