ALL DRIVERS: PLEASE READ AND ENSURE THAT YOU ARE FULLY AWARE OF THE ADDITIONAL RULES THAT APPLY TO ALL MULTICLASS EVENTS

Multiclass
A minimum of six (6) drivers are required before the LMP class will become official. If we have less than six (6) drivers sign up for the LMP class, the class (LMP) will be removed from the event, a day prior to the event taking place. If there are any GTE slots still available, you will be placed in that class (GTE) Should you not want to drive GTE? then please make a post is this thread to that effect.

LMP drivers must ALWAYS drive with your lights on, you are allowed to also flash your lights, if you feel the situation ahead requires this. GTE drivers are not allowed to use your lights in anyway, this also includes "flashing" this rule, will help identify the class of car that may be behind you.

Please Note
The rule above will only be applicable if it does not become dark during the race. When it is dark ALL drivers must use their headlights, regardless of the class in which they are driving, but GTE drivers are still not permitted to flash their headlights.

Overtaking / Lapping
LMP drivers are predominantly responsible for ensuring that a pass is completed safely and successfully. The only requirement of GTE drivers is that they remain on the racing line when shown the blue flag and being overtaken; they should always behave predictably. Meanwhile, the LMP drivers are expected to safely find a way around GTE drivers without forcing them off their line. Headlights should only be flashed to indicate presence, and be used sparingly. And finally, LMP drivers should only initiate an overtake against a GTE car where appropriate and when it is safe to do so.

Drivers ..This is a personal recommendation and not a rule - LMP cars should only be driven by experienced drivers, due to the extra responsibilities involved.

Count me in with the 458 once again. Hopefully this time I won't destroy the suspension 20 minutes in.

haha it happens to all of us at some point welcome aboard and good luck

Callum Hornby · Apr 16, 2019

Sign me up as "probably" please, I'll be at Oulton Park watching the British GT & F3 that day but I should be home in time for this. I'll take the 919 please (I've fallen for the LMPs since the last race) and if we don't have enough for LMP I'll take the 458. Silverstone I think may be a little easier to overtake the GT2/E class with all the runoff hopefully.

flavio_joshua · Apr 16, 2019

458 please , what is it the restrictor 15 %????? where is this setup ??? i never look it

Miguel Batista · Apr 16, 2019

Sign me up please. Torn between vette and 919... will let you know after I think about it ^^

Spilskinanka · Apr 16, 2019

RSR again please, although I'm nowhere near as good at Silverstone compared to Watkins Glen.

Asterix · Apr 16, 2019

Same Again Please - BMW

The restrictor settings are put in place server side. We don't have to adjust anything for it in settings

marek2209 · Apr 16, 2019

Björn Johansson · Apr 16, 2019

Sorry mate´s can´t race with you here

gone for the entire weekend.

Work work work

This is a classic session mixed class at Silverstone
hope for a replay some day.

HF2000 · Apr 16, 2019

458 for now, please Craig, although those RSR were damn quick on the straight so maybe I'll switch if I can get a good setup for it. And to be sure: the race will really be 50 minutes?

I think you are confused my friend ..the restriction is there to make sure all the GTE cars have the same balance of performance. With regards to set up, you either make one yourself, or search for one. Or of course you can use the default setup, which is a very capable setup.
