Yeah, if you guys can get me the replays (they *should* be small enough to attach on gate19) I can splice them together.

BTW, Dom if I was making the tie breaker rules you'd keep the pole because you did it first. :) 👍

I still advocate points.
2nd choice is first come first srve
Next fl is unfair in many ways imo.
 
If it is any consolation, I nabbed my current pb with the Celica on lap 2, with a 28.603. :scared:

curious if you can you get a 28 with my car? or do I just suck this week?
seen buckets of 29.0's and 29.1's but still no 28's.

I'm so desperate for extra performance I actually just tested the 1-stop :crazy:

may just be a bad track for us... my car was rubbish in the same frustrating way at GVS as well.
apparently the "handling tracks" are a struggle.

celica is definitely king of the desert though.
 
I can run 28's with any car in the field.

S2K's perform all but identically as far as I have been able to tell. :)
Corkscrew is the biggest loser of time.

≡Track Notes ≡

Track boundaries for all races in GATE 2 are universally defined as follows:
The white lines along the edge of the track are considered to be the track boundaries. These lines continue onto the rumble strips at each corner. At no point should there be no more than two wheels over those lines/rumble strips. two tires must remain in contact with the track at all times. The preceding defines the "track." hard surfaces beyond white lines and curbing/rumble strips such as concrete, "greencrete", or turf and other run off is not considered to be track. White lines, curbing/rumble strips are track and even if you only have two tires on their very edges (to be reviewed and confirmed by as steward) it will be considered clean.

This rule is, of course, also pertinent to both regular season qualifying and the group qualifying to be held especially for the pre-season event.

≡Track Specific ≡

Pit Entry: Only thing to keep in mind is to not enter too fast. The game will penalise you or even hold you in the pits with no release. DO NOT use any barriers or walls as guide or to gain time/speed.

Pit Exit: Make sure to respect the white pit exit lines. You can cross them, but only if you're 100% sure that the track is clear.
As always, if an incident occurs as a result from a driver crossing the line (Either the one on track, or the one exiting the pits), it is the driver that crossed the line who is at fault
​

≡Running Wide ≡

There's a few spots to be extra careful at.
  1. Turn 1, the run off area to the right on the approach to turn 1 is not track. Be sure to keep 2 wheels on the solid white line.
  2. distance markers, try not to hit them although everyone should get some practice without them because by the end of the race most of them will of been moved/missing.
≡Fuel ≡

The in-game fuel calculator doesn't function correctly. You must do a test run of approx half distance and calculate your own fuel usage. If you follow the guidelines set by the game, you will run out of fuel.

A guide to rolling starts by Dr_Watson
​
​

A staggered double-file line is used for our rolling start for the first lap after which the race will begin at the start/ finish line.
oQpyV.png
( First time pole sitters will be contacted for confirmation of the following regulations)
  • Pole sitter will begin on the left side of the track.
  • Even number position qualifiers will be on the right side lane of the formation. Odd number qualifiers will be in the pole sitters lane on the left side.
  • Once the GT5 race countdown has completed and the race event has begun all drivers must hold position and wait for confirmation from the host to proceed. Use your handbrakes, sit silently, report any suspicious latency between cars or lag jolting/skipping. After the host has given the go ahead all drivers will begin to slowly form up in qualifying order. The leader must act as gatherer, they must not pre-maturely advance from the group, it is their job to keep the pace slow enough until all cars are in position then proceed to formation speed.
  • Even pace at 100 kmh / 62 mph,
  • The pole leader must wait for the grid to line up behind them completely on the start straight before starting the race by applying full throttle at the start/finish line.
  • No weaving is allowed during formation lap.
  • You must not overlap the car ahead of you.
  • Do not pass any car until you're past the point the pole sitter started the race at.
  • Jump starters will be given warnings or penalties depending on severity.
  • If a driver is damaged on formation then the damaged driver must communicate this through text chat and continue at a reasonable speed to the pit area. The other cars will continue on as normal and the damaged car(s) can join the group as they come around for their first lap. At this point the formation lap will continue on for a second lap after which the race will begin. If it happens once more, the same contingency will be applied and a third formation lap will go on. After this, no more "formation restarts" will be acceptable and the affected drivers must either retire or start far behind the group. Drivers experiencing extreme lag will be asked to leave so the other drivers can race.
  • If, for any reason, a driver misses the formation start and stays behind still on the track the race will not go on, it must be restarted to eliminate the obstacle.

the only "low 28" will be tony... might see a couple 28.7-28.9 range to fill out the second row. But I expect most of D1 to Q @ 29.1-29.7
Click to expand...

Looking at the final Q sheet... this is probably the best oracle work I've ever done.

Now, if everyone starting 1-9 could be so kind as to give me a spin or two I'd appreciate it.

:D
 
A different car or lap from me would have ruined it. :P

I think lap 4 might be fastest....
 
Waiting for Joe
Cam and Kolden seem to be struggling to connect, reset your equipment and lead your cache if you can't get in.
 
I just got literally rammed out of the way through a long corner. As in rear ended 5 times while pushing me wide.
Enjoy your series.
 
Could've been lag?

Super sorry to hear that.

I took myself out underbraking into T1, then I just lost it all in Degner and got engine damage. I got the soul sucked out of me :(
So I just pulled over and parked.

Then, about 10 minutes later, I GET DC'ED!

I'm almost glad I stopped myself rather than staying out front and being dropped.
