Sign me up please, I can just never resist Brands.
Incidents here. On the second lap. Not so fun, so i quit the race shortly after.Good fight, Pavel! No probs on the contact.
I did notice that half the field quit over the course of the race, reasons?
lag
stutter
low fps
incidents
tyres / fuel gone?
Not by choice - penalties were enabled on the server, however this track has no defined penalty zones (yet).Forgot to add, it was nice not having any of those 5 second penalties!!
I cant remember any backmarker causing a problem for me, the cars I come across were either crashed/crashing out, I only had battles with drivers for position.....I thinkNot by choice - penalties were enabled on the server, however this track has no defined penalty zones (yet).
Regarding the overtaking slower cars issue - I'm watching the replay right now and seeing it for myself.

Did you guys call out an overtake/ said "blue flags [driver name in front] on the backmarkers in ts? - and conversely, were the backmarkers themselves on ts and hearing these calls?
Yep, you're right. I don't want to sound angry or something, I understand that not everybody have the same experience, and that's why we are in the racing club. I just wanted to make a call to everybody till we have a flag systemI think a simple announcement on TeamSpeak should be enough to alert lapped cars. On a short track like this where you're always near another car, I guess it is more difficult to know who is behind you (especially if there has been a lot of carnage that has muddled the order up).
I think both parties have a responsibility to make it happen safely. The lapper should alert the lapped car in plenty of time, and the lapped car should allow a pass when the lapper chooses to make it.
Another issue is that some less experienced drivers may not know what to do, or how to safely let someone else through. Remember that these are club races and for learning and having fun. A simple bit of instruction would be more useful than getting angry at the slower car. Some guys might get nervous when they are being lapped and end up doing something weird, but with totally good intentions.
EDIT: In reply to your previous post Georg, I only did 1 lap when I was 5 laps down as my wheel was playing up, so I certainly didnt lap anyone
