If your PSN name is different than the one you use on here then yes. If you want to include your Nationality that' fine but not needed.

I will send everyone a friend invite before this event so it makes things easier.

 

[Conradob3]

Perfect.

I don't know how the new BOP adj effected everyone but if you do not see a car on the list then it's not taken at the moment and you are allowed to switch.

 

[Magrathea_42]

Since they did nerf the Aston (and rightfully so), I think I will give the Jaguar a try.

We will probably get a few more too. Still a week away from race day.

I'm changing to the Lexus RC F. Thanks.

Love the concept, US times won't work for me unfortunately. I am thinking about setting up something like this myself soon. One could set up a multiclass race this way.

 

[Venster]

Thinking about entering this but not sure with US times race would start at 1am for me but it sounds good.

Could I provisionally reserve the Mazda?

Race is this Saturday and we still have some spots open if anyone else wants to join in.
There are people with different levels of talent signed up (list is on the first post) so don't be intimidated. Just race clean and all will be good.

 

[Rinsky]

Before we race tomorrow I want to take this time to go over some more details.

Waring this post is very long.

Internet connection:

I'm going to do my best at keeping the lobby from having connection issues on my end. The lobby will be a public lobby so if something should happen to me then it will go to my good friend @Infineon who has an even faster connection. Not that I have any problems with mine but it's just a backup safety precaution because the servers are not always reliable.

Next up is the number of members in the lobby. Before the race gets started I will change the number of people allowed in the room to the exact amount of people in the race. This way because its a public lobby randoms will not be jumping in and out during the race and hopefully this creates a more stable room.

For those of you with excellent internet connections we will be running a chat room along with the race on the PS4. Up to 8 people can be in a chat room. If you wish to join we will get you setup before the race. Spoken language will be English.


Race Stewart:

Because I'm hosting the race I will not be qualifying. I want to be available for everyone until the race starts should any questions or issues arise before the race.
I also have no problem dropping out of the race should a problem come up that needs my immediate attention like kicking some out for intentional dirty driving.

Penalties:

The penalty settings for this race are on strong. If you get a non increasing penalty please keep racing as normal and lose it over time. If you get an increasing time penalty under no circumstance are you to stop or slow down with people behind you or in the racing line at all. There are several of spots on the track that you can safely stop to serve your penalty out of the others way.
At the very end of the front straight in the top right as far as you can go against with wall without being off the track is the best place. No one should ever be up there unless they are completely out of control.

Exiting the Pits:

You must keep to the left side of the track when exiting the pits until you are up to full speed. Under no circumstance are you to jump right into the racing line when exiting the pits. Wheel users please make sure you wheel is straight before you regain control.

Caution Flags:

With full damage on and ghosting off Caution Flags will actually mean something so do not ignore them. A wreak or car spinning on the track or someone serving a massive penalty could end your race quickly if you choose to ignore it.
If you are damaged or serving a penalty penalty going slow and off the race pace put your flashers on.

Lap traffic:

Try to study each racers livery before the race you can do this by clicking on their names as well. It is your job to know who the leaders are and if your about to get lapped by them. You are also responsible to move out of their way if you're not racing someone eles for a position. Excessive light flashing should only be used to warn a racer they are holding up the leaders.
Also the leaders must remain respectful and not get frustrated and try to barge their way through.

I will go over more stuff in the lobby before the race.

See everyone tomorrow about 26 hours from this post.

 

[Brzlav]

Will someone stream his race?

 

[Racer283]

Will someone stream his race?

Not sure if someone will or not but hopefully I'll try and save the replay and eventually make a video for it.

 

[Rinsky]

Will someone stream his race?

I won't be because I want to keep the lobby as stable and reliable as possible.

Someone else might be able to but I'm not sure.

 

[Venster]

Lobby opening soon?

 

[Rinsky]

10 minutes

 

[Rinsky]

Lobby is closed

 

[Infineon]

Great race! Thank you to everyone who participated. We will definitely try to do this again in the future

 

[Alpha Cipher]

Thank you all for the amazing race! Minor complications here and there, but it'll only get better as we do this more often

The start was carnage as well as spinning out quite often
Quite glad that I was able to snatch 2nd despite those setbacks

 

[Rinsky]

Next time we will do private lobby to avoid causing more complications. I really didn't think that many random people would jump in on a 1.5 hour race. I was wrong. On the plus side we meet some really fast and nice people too.

 

[Cooper2k]

Thanks for the race Rinsky
