rF2 *Special Event* V8 Supercars Season Opener - Sydney Motorsport Park Sun 06 Mar 2022

[Ole Marius Myrvold]

To mark the end of my time as furloughed, and the start of the 2022 Repco Supercars Championship - no connection between the two. The 2022 Repco Supercars Championship starts off with a double header the first weekend of March, with one 300km night race on Saturday and one 300km night race on Sunday. We will not emulate that. However, we will do a 150km night race on Sunday.
Header picture and race-idea is from @Yves Larose

I'm sure you will find a way to join us, you got to find a way its your mission

Yup. I am aware that you and some other people have a Sunday conflict. I am not giving up hope though

 

[Ole Marius Myrvold]

Ah. That reminded me of something on the entry list! I can make entries for custom liveries that races numbers not on the grid IRL.

You're obviously in, seeing how this is "your" race!

 

[Magnus Dahlgren]

The cars have no difference in performance ? (like 'league edition')

Anyways, sign me up with the #26 Penrite Mustang please!

Yup. As far as I understand (though, being a Norwegian... hah!), the only actual difference is that the League Edition have all tyre compounds and adjustable diff at all tracks. The Australian version is supposed to lock the car configurations to how it it was in 2021 on those tracks. At certain tracks the Supercars series only used the soft tyres, and maybe had a defined diff-setting, and that's it. No choice.

Sydney however had dual tyre compound and open diff, and it is forced per the upgrades screen in game. This way it should be the same for every driver, and we won't have someone doing a mistake and locking it to e.g only hard tyres (that will be bad for qualifying).

EDIT: Oh, and in of course!
