Starting this one early so we can get enough confirmations and decide when and how.
So the event is about unknown track. There is only one exception and lets get over with first cause it's a big deal..
I want to race too But since i've built the track, i know every inch of it. But fortunately, i'm not that fast anyway. From the past Cold Laps events, i've been in top three in free practice and by the end of event, i'm where i'm suppose to be. So if you can live with that (and that i won't be doing timed laps in free practice at all, just outlaps) everything is fine. If not, well, i'm prepared to drop out (i'm sure this is not an issue, it has never been. If i was 7 times champion, things would be different ))
The format is:
Classic F1 (or F3000, both are well suitable)
1h practice (or less)
2x30min Races
Changeable weather (i would like Daniel to make one extra weather file, prutty prrleeease with dry 30min in practice then everything goes, the track IS designed specially for damp to extreme wet conditions with extra weather features..)
The track is released inside password protected zip file. Password is released no more than 30 minutes before the event. As a gentleman rule, everyone is allowed to inspect, install and test the track offline as a safety measure but we trust no one actually uses it to learn anything.. I will be online during that time to answer any questions. This means one extra step for server owner: you need to use the same installed package everyone has on server and home machine, then login in to server and report back to me (just to make sure everything works little bit ahead of time, you'll get the password early). We'll use a backup track from Race07 with the same format (skip practice at 15 minutes to mimic Cold Laps) if ANYONE has troubles.
I try to get this as scheduled RD Club race event. That means regular 1xtire wear and possibly some other minor changes. I've done this before, the main element of surprise can be achieved.
From experience, i can tell that these are really special events. Nothing beats taking multiple drivers, putting them on a track that no one has driven before and really measuring the skill of track learning and solving problems on the fly.
About the track..
Well, i wont tell you a lot, that would defeat the idea.. Maybe some teasers. Maybe i'll drop more clues along the way.. maybe..
