Moderator's Report

Drivers are reminded that if it's raining, you should be running with lights on.


I've talked in the past about the dangers of overdriving. In this particular race, I watched Maurice Claessen run wide about 20% of the time, and go off far too often. I don't expect anyone to never go off or make a mistake, but it's essential that you attempt to drive within your personal limits; paddling a car out of the gravel traps every five laps is frustrating for you and dangerous for other drivers.


Server replay time: 200s

Just when I was starting to think we'd got the hang of rolling starts, we have a big smash at the start line.

Maurice Claessen who is leading the pace lap starts to accelerate well before the line, but the real culprit is Tazman who comes out of the last corner and immediately passes a whole bunch of cars. There is then a chain reaction with a whole load of cars having to stand on the anchors, which causes Oilseal to ram into the back of aajay_uk, [Zip]Tyf joining the fun. Gerald nearly joins in too.

  • mclaessen (Maurice Claessen)warning — premature acceleration on the pace lap
  • Tazmanpenalty — going on the pace lap before the driver in front went — 0 places lost


Server replay time: 284s

Tazman spins off out of turn 12. He rejoins, drifting lazily across the track as most of the rest of the field come past - they do well to miss him, Gerald taking to the grass to avoid contact.

As this is the first racing lap, it would normally be an additional place lost over the normal three, but since nobody actually hits him, and since he does appear to be at least trying to get out of the way, I've reduced it to just two places.

In this situation, it's best to remain stationary and/or off track and use the look behind/left/right functions to see if it's safe to rejoin. This gives everyone else the greatest chance to avoid you. Once you do rejoin, in most circumstances you should not attempt to cross to the other side of the track, even to get off the racing line, because again it makes you very unpredictable and hard to avoid.

  • Tazmanpenalty — dangerous rejoin — 2 places lost


Server replay time: 325s

Jamera has a huge moment in turn 12 and Dave Gymer gets more than halfway alongside on the inside into New Holland. Jamera turns in on Dave and there's contact but they both continue without damage or spinning, so as a result the normal penalty (three places on the first racing lap) is reduced.

  • Jamerapenalty — contact with Dave Gymer — 1 place lost (plus 1 for penalty points)


Server replay time: 352s

Popabawa gets half a car length ahead of Jamera on the inside of Elf, but Jamera turns in on him and there is contact. Although neither car spun or was badly damaged, and despite Jamera not losing the place, the full penalty must apply because this is the second such incident in the space of less than 30 seconds.

  • Jamerapenalty — contact with Popabawa — 2 places lost (plus 1 for penalty points)


Server replay time: 400s

Jamera gets caught out under braking for Wurth and runs into the back of Popabawa, who brakes very early compared to his normal braking point, and is very slow mid-corner. Jamera comes off far worse, losing a place to Shark in the Z3M, so I'm only going to issue a caution.

  • Jameracaution — rear ending Popabawa


Server replay time: 1400s

Zacari has just left the pits on fresh but cold wet tyres; he applies to much power on the exit of Repsol and spins into the back of Michael Cooper, spinning both out.

  • Zacariadvice — be careful on cold tyres, especially when near other cars


Server replay time: 1403s

Maurice Claessen's Saleen has run wide at La Caixa, allowing Popabawa's GT3-RS to lap him. Pops runs wide in Turn 12 and Maurice sees it as an opportunity to unlap himself, but doesn't leave Popabawa enough room to recover without going off and makes contact.

Maurice only had himself to blame for going off at La Caixa and forcing another driver off the road after they had made a lesser mistake was needlessly agressive. However, because there was some ambiguity in the situation, I'm reducing the penalty to a single place.


Server replay time: 1475s

Tazman has gone off at Wurth, and rejoins up the hill only to spin again as he tries to apply some power. He rejoins again and drives very slowly across the track towards the apex of Campsa before retiring just as Dave Gymer arrives.

Dave starts going to the right to avoid him, but Tazman continues to move, and being hard on the brakes Dave can't jink to the left and would've made contact - it was pure luck that Tazman hit escape just as Dave was about to crash into him.

Much like Taz's earlier off at 284s, having decided to rejoin, the one thing you must not do is cross the track with cars approaching. They stand very little chance of avoiding you.

  • Tazmanwarning — bad (aborted) rejoin


Server replay time: 1510s

Maurice has run off in La Caixa; as Popabawa approaches Maurice applies too much throttle and spins right across Popa's path.

  • Racing incident


Server replay time: 3639s

aajay_uk has a slow, lazy spin in Banc Sabadell and Popabawa can't quite squeeze past on the inside, spinning out as he clip's aajay's nose.

  • Racing incident

The last of the series to get going - but at least that gives me plenty of time to get some proper practice in.

Really looking forward to it and meeting you all on track - and racing at last with my Team Shark buddies!!

Cheers

A silly question maybe. For Endurance Championship it says that each division will have a relatively even split of GT and N-GT cars. How will this be achieved if we don't know how many drivers will show up with GT car and how many with NGT. I know I'm driving NGT but I might be one of the few. Hope you understand my question.

A good point matjaz. For the record I will be driving lister which might make me a little lonely as most appear to be driving n-gt.
Anyways, looking forward to racing you all.

Answered in another thread (please don't post the same thing twice!):

We had a poll a couple of months ago to see what people wanted run and there looked to be a fairly even split.

I would ask that if you're undecided, you run in NGT because it is generally the less well subscribed class.

But at the end of the day we're supposed to be doing this for fun and I don't want to start dictating car classes unless I absolutely have to.

Dave,
       Is there any reserve system on the endurance races. When we were first asked what championships we'd like to be in I didn't feel that comfortable running a long race, but now having done a fair bit of online track time quite fancy it in the GT3RS  Grin

If it's too late no problem, but I'm home alone on the 24th so would love the chance to race.

Yes, there are reserves shown in the driver allocations thread (still a few full time spots available) and the joining procedure is the same as for Sprint Cup races.

If all the spots aren't taken come race time, is is ok for a div 1 competitor to take part in this race as a reserve?

I was thinking this, but if me, and you, and a few other of the D1 people come over and race as reserves in D2, well we'll probably easy take quite a few of the top places, if we often run as reserves in D2 then the D1 people would probably win D2.

I'm like you tho, I see a race and want to race... It's hardly very fair though, perhaps we'd be made to compete in an Elise or something might do the trick!
