Room for 1 more tonight? Just given my Ferrari a wash and she's ready to go!

As long as it is regulation worthy bud. Welcome doc. This poses a slight problem with our new members attending for registration process.

NEW MEMBERS: If 12 are racing there will be no room in lobby and you will need to attend our open lobby after the race.

Nice one itz you're such a hero you should totally have your own theme tune. Maybe the superman theme. I can picture you breaking all them cars in with that music playing... ...

Great racing again tonight, still some lag issues etc but it was better than last weeks round.

Looking forward to seeing the pics. I have pm'd you the email address to send them too. Cheers for doing them Spatt. Much appreciated.

Some may be moved as I work shifts and Im not available some nights.

Im sure Itz and Ed will also be hosting rooms when they can. As long as an admin is present then the Time Trials can be done and details passed to me for updating the website with the fastest laps.

We wanted to try and get into a regular format but there will be nights that things may be moved or cancelled due to circumstances. we will try and post if this is the case and let everybody know.

Some pics from tonight, a warm up for Spatts:

Dont forget to get Photo of the Month in guys!

Edit: Due to Itzza-s injury he has asked that 06vilma takes his place until he is ready to return. It provides o6vilma a great opportunity to get stuck in and racing with us.

06 - PM Sent

The ORDL are pround to announce the next Race Series Event.

Its off to the Land of the Rising Sun for our petrol powered requirements!

The Japanese Super Cup, featuring Japanese road vehicles up to 500PP. Since this is a Super Cup teams will need to be decided and the vehicle choice posted.

Remember as always it is first come first served and only 12 places are available.

Our calendar has been updated and race dates entered.

Anata ga anata jishin ni shinrai suru hitsuyō ga hayaku iku tame ni wa, shinkō o motte ite wa seikō shinakereba naranai

Please put my name down for the Japanese Super Cup driving a Honda NSX Type R '02. I realise I don't have a team mate just yet but I just wanted my car choice noted early in case different teams can't run the same car. Can different teams run the same car?

Teckle.

Noted Teckle, it will be interesting to see what cars are chosen for this event as there are so many contenders.

Teams/car choice is something I am looking into right now. Im looking at changing the entry requirements slightly so that team mates can run different cars if they wish.

Some events like the GTC SC needed to be matched (Some drivers had a problem as they didnt own all the Touring Cars) but I will look at expanding the options and post when I got the info sorted. There is plenty of time before this event starts so everyone will have time to chose vehicles.

Put my name on that list, I'd need teammate too, but the car I'd going in is the Mazda RX-7 Spirit R Type A (FD) '02. Thanks! (By the way, if the team members MUST have the same car, I am flexible with my choice.)
EDIT: And if my partner's car can be different of mine, could I choose the Nissan R390 GT1 Road Car '98? It DOES say road car, but yet again, it is a super car, so just give me a small heads up, thanks! ^^

I'm sorry, I assumed team mates had to be in the same car. What I meant was if Team A was driving, for example, a NSX Type R '02 could Team B then choose to drive the same car?

After a review I have re-written but not changed the format of events. Hopefully this will clear it up for everyone:


  • Where events are one vehicle specific, any event type, each team will use a different vehicle colour unless colour is pre determined by vehicle model.
  • Where events are non vehicle specific, Championship or Super Cup Event, a team must use the same car. Other teams may not replicate a vehicle in use.
  • Where events are non vehicle specific, Cup Event, vehicles may be the same but must be different in colour.

So, if you chose the NSX, its yours for you and your team mate only. First come first served as always when choices need to be made or places are getting low for an event.

RULE UPDATE:

Regarding disconnections, rather that have a 5 minute period where the race can be restarted all drivers need to be aware of these changes;

Disconnections:

If a driver(s) have a disconnection problem and are removed from the race during the first lap then the race is aborted and restarted. All drivers must return to the lobby and await the disconnected driver(s) return.

The admin member hosting will then restart the race after 5 minutes using the Fastest First option from the available race start list. Only 1 restart per race. Any drivers who fail to return will not be able to race.


If after a race has been restarted, any drivers that are disconnected will be given points depending on how many drivers are racing. Disconnected drivers will be given points for last place, in order of disconnection based on race distance completed. If more than 10 drivers are present, any drivers who disconnects and are out of points placement will receive 0 points.

For example;
11 members attend a 10 lap race
3 drivers disconnect, driver A on lap 6, driver B on lap 7 and driver C on lap 9.
Driver C will be given points for 9th place, driver B will be given points for 10th place and driver A will receive 0 points.

This system also relies on drivers not faking disconnection and rage quitting. Any driver found to be doing so may be removed from the ORDL.


This ensures all drivers know the procedure and are not racing wondering if they should go to lobby or not.

Put my name in for the Japanese Super cup. I am not entirely sure on the car choice yet, but initially I think i will go in the Nissan Fairlady Z (Z34). I might change my mind though if anyone wants to team up with me.

No problem, will do.

At this point I will offer my services as team mate to anyone who wishes to run the Honda S2000.

I have a suggestion based on the events from last night.

I am also racing in the BTCC, and there the first race grid is based on league position. so the way they line up for the first race, is by moving people out onto the track and line them up on track in the starting order and then start the race. In the event of last nights confusion, it could be done by going in and noting the race results of last race and then placing people manually in the reverse order on the track. Mind you that no one must pass the start finish line or post a time before this is done, as the positions will not change.

Making the story shorter; take note of race positions, reset track, get everyone in pits, call the starting order, let people make their way on to the track and line up in the mentioned order, start race.

This will mean that the cars will be placed in the same order on the grid when race starts.

That should work 👍

We can test it at warm up time at next race night, so when the same problem happen again we all know what to do without confusion.
 
Good close racing last night lads was fun.What happen with the grid? I thought it worked last night. Movie car pic soon :)
