After duscussion within the irecting team the decision has been made to to postpone Season 4 of the RaceDepartment rally Championship for the following reasons. The season has NOT been cancelled just postponed
1/ After the departure of Norman Buiscuits, a new session creation and results program has needed to be built from the ground up. This program is so far untested and still being developed.
2/ With still much confussion over the grading system from drivers we need to modify and clarify the system for easy of understanding. PLEAE NOTE: The planned changes should NOT affect the CAR sellection for most drivers.
3/ The A8W car classes and their distibution though the grades.
4/ Normal early issues with the RSRBR mod. A postpone will allow rallyesim to correct problems and maybe even release the long awaited Mini before the first round.
5/ Health Issues effecting some of the Directing team.
6/ Rally plates and other images have not been finished
7/ General "burn out" of the directing team.................................we need a break!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In an effort to correct these issues and make sure the RDRC runs smoothly and problem free for all drivers, we will postpone the start of the season to the 5th of March. The new rules will be posted on 5th Febuary. The grading events for new drivers can still be run whenever you request from either myself or Pete Mull.
Some of the issues will simply take time, however I would like to get feedback on the rules from all drivers (current, past and prospective). We normally end up with a small handful of drivers posting their thoughts but never hear from the majority of those that read the forum. I would really like to hear from everyone.
Below is a link to the previously posted rules for the season for your reference.
