*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

This is the combo that won the vote for this Sundays new year special race.

I have set the race duration to 60 mins. Could i please have a show of hands as to how many racers are planning on turning up, may reduce the length if there is only a few of us.

I have also provisionally set the start to standing as its a long lap, but if people want we could do a rolling start and start racing when we exit the Mulsanne straight

I hope to be there in the Audi

Toyota for me.

I seem to remember if set to automatic the energy gets used too quick... But you can use it manually? Its been a while since i used these..

I never raced these, so might give it a try

In the Toyota you can map a button to the kers and it will deploy while the button is being pressed

[SRW]

I have decided to reduce the race duration to 50 mins bearing in mind the size of the track and expected amount of racers

just tried to log onto the RDP and all i get is a flickering mess, this has happened to me before but it usually sorts itself out after about 10 seconds. Can any of you admins get on the rdp ok?

[SRW]

seems to be ok now so fingers crossed

Remember to run with the rev counter app as its the only thing that indicates the level of energy per lap thats usable. The cars can generate far more but you are limited quite heavily on the energy a lap you can use. The yellow bar on the side of the vev counter shos the available energy par lap.
