I would imagine some people would have left by that time.
 
Moving to room 3. My buddy Mic's gonna take my spot in room 2. Not sure of his number though, I can't remember. Don't judge me, I'm sure he'll come in an correct it.

Looking forward to this. Just got to get through teenage daughters party tonight. Hope they don't trash the place
 
Plux is looking very fast, I saw an 8:21 as the best time(probably from Plux). My best time was an 8:26 I'm just losing out at the end of the long straights and struggling to get past 162mph at the end of the dottinger straight whereas Plux is doing 170mph, I'm losing about 0.6-1sec on the straights alone, I was going to take some wing off, but never got the chance to see how it handled because straight after memto changed the weather to wet I reverted back to high downforce.

The RX7 has always had good top speed. You may remember in one of the first races last night you were perfectly placed for a draft pass as we got into the Dottinger straight and you pulled alongside........but couldn't get the job done and had to tuck back in behind me as both cars reached their vmax.

I think the RX7 is just naturally more slippy than most, especially compared to your Lambo which looks 50% wider!!! :)
 
Yeah I remember that, I was thinking "Damn! I've been caught up in this for nearly a lap, I need to make the move now." Then you re-passed me again towards the end of the straight, I set myself up for a good exit onto the pit straight and finally got past.
 
Exciting times are coming our way and thanks to Adams brilliant work we have some big names following us on twitter, everything is starting fb to come together for the 2014 nurburgring n24
 
The Night Nurse has given me a thorough examination, twice, and cleared me to race. :)
Looking forward, still need some tracktime in the wet though. :odd:

When will the lounge open? Do anyone have a timer? :bowdown:

Glad to hear you are feeling better, see the Opening Post, about 10 hrs and 50 mins from now......

Great to hear you've been passed fit. You missed a great 'test' session last night. We had 14-16 cars present for about 5 'mini 2 lap races' which were great fun.

There is a timer in memto's OP on page 1. The timer is when spec check and qually will start. The Lounge will open 30 mins before that time

Last nights official test was a cracker. Can't wait for tonight's race :)

I believe this is now the complete list of drivers unless TG can find a late entrant for the spare spot in Room 1.

That being the case, I will be setting the my Room (Race Lounge #3) for a maximum of 9 drivers to ensure no unwanted visitors and the very annoying pop up text box message that result in a visitor entering or leaving the room are there to distract us while racing.

With that in mind, once racing is underway please DO NOT use the text box to say anything unless it is absolutely necessary as this can cause crashes. See you later!
 


Drivers Brief





Track: Nurburgring N24

Laps: 21 No pace Lap

Weather: Variable

Race time: 3 Hours

Lobbies: 3

Room 1 host: Jonnyb1990
Room 2 host: memto89
Room 3 host: Gadget334



Weather:

This is the first change weather race of the CSS, The settings will be.

Weather: 50%

Changeability: 10

Surface Water: 50%


Qualifying:

Qualifying will be the same as normal with only 20 mins to completed time. This means that you will only get 1 lap so make sure it is clean as there is only a 3 mins window between completing your out and flying lap and the session ending.


Formation Lap:

The formation lap will not be a full lap as per normal CSS races, it will be to the start of sector 3 on the GP circuit.





Race:

The race is a 3 hour race, one hour longer than normal. Races like these are not won on the first corner of the first lap, Please make you are clean and consistent as it is a long way round if you get damage.


Race End:

The race will end on Lap 20 for the leader not 21. When you have finished your lap please make your way round to the run off section at turn 11 of the GP track, Please remain behind the leader when you park and leave your car there until the last person has arrived at turn 11 and parked. At that point the race will end.


Once the screen message announces 'the Leader has crossed the line with one lap to go' the rest of the pack completes the lap they are on at racing speed and then fall in line with no overtaking once they cross the finishing line at the end of that lap.


nurburg-map-jpg_100205221_m.jpg


The reason for this is to ensure fair stewarding at the end as it is possible to be more than 3 mins behind the leader on such a big track.

The race time for any cars that are a lap or more behind the winner will be given a race time equal to their race time at the point they cross the line on their last racing lap + the time the winner took to complete the last lap or number of laps that driver was behind the winner.



Disconnections:

As this race is run in 3 lobbies and requires 3 drivers we understand that some teams may only be able to get 2 drivers in for the race. Instead of the regular 70% race distance completed rule we are moving it to 58% race distances, which allows for a disconnection in one lobby of 3 drivers and also allows a 2 driver team.


A team will have to log 33 laps (as a team) in order to be scored)


If a driver DC's on Lap 1 the race will be red flagged and restarted as an 19 (20) lap race in the order the cars are in at the time the red flag is called.


The driver that caused the DC will start from the back of the grid.


Any DC's after Lap 1 will be treated as a mechanical failure and that car will record a 'laps completed' time only to be added to his/her teammates lap scores.


Any teams that cannot provide a driver in each race room will also only score a result as 'laps completed' for the drivers that do show.



Any questions Please ask.

This is all shaping up nicely, now for a quick nap to make sure I don't nod off during the race, this is going to be a late night.

Will CCR make it a clean-sweep, find out in 4 hours.
