Race OnePassword: see above(2) Driver lists can be found on the championship standings pagePractice: 19:30 ( 25 mins)Qual: 19:55 ( 25 mins)Race: 20:20 ( 24mins= ~29 mins race)Cars allowed: WTCR 2019 + TC Cup Track: Nurburgring (Nordschliefe) Time of Day Setting: 13:00 Weather: DryStart: Standing Tyre wear: NormalFuel consumption: Normal Pit-stops: None requiredServer: Simracing.org.uk E7 Password: see aboveChampionship StandingsExample Setups: 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.

The real WTCR use the 24h layout Matt. Just been testing on that layout & laps should take around 9 minutes.

The real race is only 3 laps so we might want to drop it down to 20-25 minutes.

Can you not set race distance at 3 laps?

Matt the server is still set for this week’s race, could you change it this track please? Found visibly to the left is poor on the Audi and most other cars. The Hyundai has much better vision with narrower bands in the safety lattice which start further away from the windscreen - I don’t notice it after short drive.

I am going off Geoff's 9 min laps, I will have a go myself round the Nords 24hrs to make sure minor gods can still do it The server only does race sessions in minutes, there is no laps option. I may extend the time it waits after the winner has finished. Is set for Reverse grid for the 1st 10 places.

I did a messy lap in 9:45, so to give everyone a chance to get an outlap and qual lap I have made prac and qual 25 mins each. Race time will be 24 mins to make sure it will go on to lap 3 and shouldn't go to lap 4. Should give a ~29/30 mins race. "I think" that will make lap 3 the "Final Lap" Need to test that...It might need 17 mins, but I think that would make lap 2 the final lap. Any testing would be much appreciated

Matt, when I did the RaceRoom Cupra Series races at Dubai last week, qualifying for race 2 was run like you were doing a leaderboard lap. Drivers were alone on the track & started just before the last corner, there was no outlap. I guess there is a setting for this. Could be an option here to save a 9 minute outlap, if you like & can set it up.

Completed one lap only, the changes of track from Nurburgring to Nordschleife I’m still learning. On the flowing sections the changes of direction provoked a car killing tank slapper on occasions! Found light to brakes before the change of direction steadied the car. Doubt I’ll be able to complete race one! What can I adjust to make my car more stable?

More rear wing, more rear toe-in, brake bias more to the front, more front fast compression damping (can't remember if this is adjustable on these), stiffer front springs, possibly stiffer rear rollbar.

You don't need to do a full outlap regardless on RaceRoom. You can just cut the track by turning right at the end of the GP circuit instead of going left to the Nordschleife, then drive around the barriers to arrive at the front straight and start a fresh lap. Also useful if you mess up your lap on the GP circuit and want to start over.

I did try that Toni when I got an invalid lap on the GP track section, but the timer did not restart when I crossed the S/F line.
