By the way looking at the leaderboard does this track even have track limits???? Seems wrong how far the lines go wide.
Sorry I missed the race. Cleared cache, updated software, checked hardware, checked internet connection.....anything to narrow the cause of the Error 503 issues. I won't be able to commit to any races until the cause of the Error 503 is found and/or fixed.
I was watching the 2015 F1 race at Spa.
Alot of them have
almost all 4 wheels over the track limit line (inside wheels just barely touching the white line with the outside of the tire) in....
turn 4 (Lewis Hamilton cut here), 7, 9, 14, 15, 17
With some drivers receiving track limit warnings exiting turn 15.
Other than that, it looks as if they use very little of the curbs. I need to try that.
Turns 9, 10, and 11. Looks like they try to avoid the curbs.
Being the offtrack excursion king
, from what I have found, here is where you can have all 4 wheels over the white track limit lines.
Turn 4 (Radillon), you can cut a chunk on the inside near the very top (completely off track)
Exit out of turn 7
Exit out of turn 13
Exit out of turn 14
Exit out of turn 15 you can run way wide
Entry to turn 17
Exit to turn 17.
Turn 9 isn't on the list because you can get a track limit warning there.
Overall, Raceroom seems to mirror the real track limits at Spa.
Yes, some turns you can have all 4 wheels over, but then you're in the gravel and that is a penalty in itself. Turn 13 is an example.
The only exception is the entry to turn 17.
You can drive all the way onto the grass before turning in - if you want.
Whereas in real life, drivers maybe touch the white line before turning in.
Exit to turn 4, I used to get Invalid lap warnings for barely touching the white line for pit exit. But I think that was fixed.
I like the hardcore RD's track limit rule (no more than 2 wheels over white line) though.
Leaves NO QUESTION and people aren't disadvantaged because they never find loopholes in the track limits. But that would mean someone specifically looking at the race video to identify and penalize people after the race - instead of during the race. So it's a tough issue to enforce, even though it's racing for fun and we shouldn't have this issue (of which I'm guilty).
Isn't that the rule in F1 anyway. I have heard track limit warnings AND PENALIZED on TV for having 4 wheels over the track limit lines. And even if you see them go way over, tv doesn't necessarily tell you, all the time, they received warnings. I guess you receive 2 warnings, then penalty?
