I'm having trouble connecting... maybe because of Dean hosting the room?
 
We've got about 4 mins left of qualifying before we start race #1. So far Bart has the pole with me 2nd and Pekka 3rd, but still some laps left. I'm happy with my lap so parking. :sly:
 
Thanks for the racing. Good thing "sandbagging" doesn't work due to it being on combined lap time. Was not exaggerating when I said I was half asleep, I could barely keep my eyes open. Ate some chocolate between races and then ran a solid 9 laps, mostly 20s and 21s with a couple 22s. Sorry it kinda screwed up the system :scared:
 
were 2 good races shame my car wasn't broken in but had fun anyway looking forward to the next race
 
The Attack format races turned out much better than I expected. 👍

Here are the results.

The shuffleraces afterwards were quite fun as well. :)
 
Was good fun yesterday. Thank you all for coming out 👍
The shuffle races afterwards were hilarious, its always a pleasure to race with this great group of racers.

See you next week.
 
The Pozzi Combo could fit it very well. The only thing that's holding it off now is the oncoming Silverstone Enduro.
I think people will be practicing more in the coming weekend than to do the Pozzi in attack format.
 
Yah, we certainly can't do it this week with the special event. But we can certainly drum up one of these in one of the next few weeks. Personally, my weekend racing is now kaput during the day, so I'll leave it up to the other team members to organize.

I'm game for next weekend. I was really hoping to be able to drive that Camaro in a race. My Internet issues prevented me from competing in both EU and NA races yesterday and I would really love to race that thing. I think I have my Web access sorted out now.
 
I would be interested in this coming back I only did a saturday attack once since it was actually my first race. :P
But the saturday time slot fits me pretty well so count me in for whenever the next one will be.

Qualification Procedures
  • Type: Live Single Stint Pre-Race Qualifying
  • Setup: The lap times will be reset by changing tracks (and back) 5 minutes prior to the qualification session.
  • Length: 15 minutes. Run as many laps as you desire during the time, however tire changes are NOT allowed which should put a cap on the effective number of laps. The race countdown timer will start at exactly 15:00.000 minutes on the track clock by a steward. Drivers can attempt to finish hot laps until the timer expires. It is our understanding that any laps completed prior to 10 seconds on the timer will count, but those completed at the last seconds of the timer will be ignored by the system.
  • Pits: Closed for service. You should park in pits manually or via start/exit when you are finished running hot laps, but you cannot change tires and return to track. You can also park/ghost on track if you can get sufficiently away from the racing line.
  • Groups: Track is open to all drivers during the session. Drafting is not allowed so space out appropriately or dip out of draft if closing in on someone. When exiting pits be sure to wait for a sufficient gap and stop if necessary to allow drivers on track to pass without interference.
  • Notes: Drivers arriving late can join the quali session at any time during the session. Drivers that do not have time to run at least one hot lap will start in the back. If you exit to the lobby after running a hot lap your times will be reset so stay on the track or in the pits. If a driver DCs during the session they will lose their best lap, however they can rejoin and run another lap (time permitting) or rejoin and start in the back.
  • Corrections: None! Whatever grid order the system gives us will be official... no restarts or formation laps. The second race is reverse grid with gaps so there is some amount of correction built in if you start further back than you should. This is unofficial and just for fun so just go with it!

*If the size of the grid is large relative to the size of the track split qualifying (2 groups) will be utilized instead with 2 hot laps allowed per driver. Group 1 driver should remain on track to keep their times registered with the system, but must ghost off the racing line and wait for group 2 while they qualify.

A race steward will let each driver know their targets during the break between races.

I'm in nail-27
 
The reg images weren't showing all of the people signed up, but it should shortly. But note it will still look a little wonky. :boggled:
 
I've sent friend requests to nail-27, couttsy21, RowdLL, and EWeinbauer to allow us to potentially run today's event in a friends-only lounge to prevent the randoms. Accept them before you start the game, if possible.
 
Yes, and the lounge will be open about an hour before that. Which account will you be using? I only have GTP_Mika on my list, but that account hasn't logged in for 11 days.

Yup i'll be using that one haven't had much time lately.
 
Let us know if you're having problems connecting. Try clearing cache first and re-try. So far Rustic has been refused entry even though he's on my friend list.
 
Sure, but we are right now switching to a public room hosted by GTP_AspecBob
