Please use discord with push to talk before and during this event, to ensure smooth running of the sessions and good communication between drivers on track.



See you on track!

A message to all Drivers

If you run off track, you have to check to see that its clear before you re enter the track. Do not just keep the gas pinned and pull back on track.

When entering the track from the pits, stay off the racing line until you are up to speed. Do not race on your out lap, let other drivers by. On re-entering the track stay off the racing line until you are up to race speed and do not block any fast approaching car.

Golden Rule

1. If you hit somebody off the track and carry on like nothing happened, you take the risk of being banned for 30 days.
2. Instead, you should always wait for the affected drivers, and that way you can be 100% sure you will not get a ban.

Track limits

1. No more than 2 wheels over the white/yellow line without a lift of the gas please.
   You will be penalized if you break our rules

Note: Please use your full real name in Discord. Not doing so may result in you being kicked from the server if an admin cannot identify you as a premium member.

INFORMATION & BASIC RULES

• It is the responsibility of faster cars to safely overtake slower cars. When a faster car is overtaking a slower car (in a different class), whether a blue flag is being shown to the slower car or not, the slower car should be predictable and remain on the racing line. The faster car should execute the overtake only when it is safe to do so. If a faster car is lapping another car in the same class then the same rule applies; some cooperation may be required to facilitate the overtake. Please be sensible.
• Seperate qualification runs will happen for Prototype and GT classes. See timetable details in OP. Prototypes must not start a new lap after 12 minutes have elapsed. GT cars must not exit the pits before 12 minutes have elapsed. You may be kicked from the server by race control if you ignore this rule.
• All of the standard Racing Club Rules still apply to this event.

Hi Brian, i have to try it yet, but sign me up with the Cayman GT4 for now, thank you!

 

[Kek700]

Yipee, no battery-powered Sh*te, will go for the LMPC please brian.

 

[jimortality]

Will this be on the sgp platform?

You are both in!

Nope!

 

[Kek700]

Are the factory presets available, the LMPC should have TC.

I have become moany, wanting old git.

 

[Luca Badin]

Oh wow, thanks for organising Brian, this looks like a very fun event already. I'm 100% in, but of those nine cars I have only ever driven the 911 (and the Corvette, a bit), and I'm not even sure what class I want to drive in anyway. I'll do some testing and report back.

Hopefully I end up utterly hating every option but one, or I'll never manage to settle on a single car

 

[davlight]

Thanks for organizing, I’m in! Still don’t know what car tho

Good stuff lads. I'll put you both in the undecided group!

 

[random2k4]

Hmm no GT3s
Will be in for sure, have to see which car to use.
Also why not 80 min race 72 seems a little odd

 

[Taj Johal]

12 hours / 10 = 1.2 Hours

458 for me please, I'm gonna try and come in front of the GT4s

That's it Taj. The numbers sit better with me

Oh you are spoiling us Brian. Hard to decide which car but seeing you and @Kek700 in the LMPC class makes me want to join there as well I really hope I can make it this time, weekends are always a bit unpredictable

Nice one. I'll put you down for one LMPC.

Ye we're always going to loose a handfull. The last one was extra messy with swapping servers. We should know a few days in advance the numbers, more or less, for each class this time around.

I really like the LMPC, it has an interesting soundtrack, terrible tyres, a nice performance increase over GT3, is quite difficult to handle, a flow to it without that edgy stuck to the road LMP1 thing.
I am not particularly quick with it, there are some very quick aliens with this car if memory serves me, the better you can flow with the car the less tricky the handling becomes, beware it can bite.
It is going to be. for me, a difficult car over these 72 minutes.
Plus it is going to make traffic with the GT3 and GTE class very interesting, you won't be able to do the Audi/mx5 thing and certainly not the GT3 /LMP1 stunts.
In many ways you will have to part fight the GT3 cars unless you can drive it with alienability, even then it is not going to be easy.
I think the advice is, or should be, no slowing or putting yourselves out for LMPC drivers. let the buggers work for it, and no I don't mean block them, or swerve to defend.
