yes it is.
1) make sure you read the rules so you understand the format
2) it would be a good idea to get in the server asap to practice....
thanks for registering, will see you soon!

Welcome back Jeffy!!

Due to the timezone constraints, if you feel there is no way you can make your scheduled Pool AND you can find someone in a different Pool to swap places with you, you may do so.

You may NOT change Pools without a trading partner, in order to keep the races even.

Updated OP with Qualy results and provisional Pool Charts for race lineups.

Any new registries will be added to Pools in succession according to time of entry.

[raceway33]gtr server is currently set up for practice.....

Quote from J@tko :

Haha I'd agree with that actually

all joking aside......the task of balancing these cares is a subjective one. there are so many variables to consider, how do you find a common ground? not easily that's for sure......

i guess the best thing is to just take what you're given, and try to get the best result you can.....

Quote from J@tko :

Everyone would complain if we made the FXR as fast as the FZR

not everyone ......

The only ones eligible to race are those who registered. If someone posted a time, they were only added to the list if they are registered.
If there are late entries, they will be added to their respective Pools. If someone can't make their Pool, they can race the Consi on Sunday to try to get in to the Man Event.

Quote from buck77 :

I didn't have time to take the wheels and go on track to do a better time!
But still, I'm satisfied with that 16th position! I just made ONE fast lap and didn't even work on a setup!!!

it's all about where you finish dan, not just where you start

Quote from jmari :

It's too late for qualif today ?

I read that on the rules :
"

Qualifying will be done on the [raceway33]Qual server the entire week prior to

event weekend
"

The week is finish for you ????

Yes qualifying is over. But, if you would still like to race, i can add you to the registration list, and you will be placed in the respective Pool #

Quote :

Day1 race lineups will be posted in LFS forum and at raceway33.com

Congradulations to #68 Welty GER on securing the pole position for the inaugural Halloween Festival of Speed this Sunday, brought to you by RSR and [raceway33].
Welty beat out some of the finest oval racers in LFS, taking his XRR to the top of the chart and never relinquishing his position.

Starting alongside Welty in Sunday's Main Event will be [FM]^Brandon, with the second fastest qualifying lap, securing his front row starting position.

Honorable mention goes to #65|Frogs for qualifying 3rd, surprise 4th place qualifier [AW]Grim, and 5th is oval-ace Ori.

Only the top two get to keep their spots, as the rest of the 35 unsecured drivers must race their way in via preliminary races.

Attached are the official qualifying results, soon to follow will be the lists for each Pool for Friday's preliminary events.

For those of us shafted by the time change/UTC/GMT/EST confusion....there is less than 8 hours left to post a qualification time on the [raceway33]qual server for this weekend's event.

Once qualifiaction has ended, all secondary laptimes posted will be removed, server will be closed.

Qualifying results, along with Pool 1,2 & 3 lineups will be posted here and at www.raceway33.com

PLEASE read the rules.pdf for vital information on the format, rules, lineups and ventrilo information.

Also keep in mind that if you failed to post a qualification time, you still have the opportunity to race on-but you MUST BE REGISTERED!!!!!!

Good luck!!!!

k.m.

Quote from troy :

Couldn't you use restricted areas to spectate any player not joining in the first pitbox? Would be a workaround rather then a solution but it should work.

ahh...good idea.

may not be the right fix, but a fix it is.....thanks troy......you have achieved hero status

Minor changes to race lineup format.

check .pdf for highlighted changes.

if you have any questions, please post them here.

anyone that has posted a qualifying time in more than one car, will have the slower time removed, and it will be assumed that the car in which you posted a faster time with will be the one you use for the entire weekend.
YOU MAY NOT SWITCH AFTER OFFICIAL QUALIFICATION HAS ENDED!!!

I have a server set up for single-car qualifying to prevent drafting at KY1, which only allows one car at at time. Several times last night two or even three cars were able to join at the same time, a long as noone was already on track. Can anything be done to alleviate this? thanks....

@yann....5% intake FZR and XRR, 10 kgs added mass FXR

@dan....whatever car you post a qualy time with is the one you will use for the ENTIRE race weekend. if you are unsure which is best for you, go to [raceway33]gtr server and practice.

Quote from Etem :

is there a prize?

yes. it is bragging rights. you beat these guys, and you'll be famous

you've exceeded your word-limit for the month paul .

no worries man. there's so many things we "could" do on track in a very small amount of time, all the while we're all tensed up,white-knuckled hanging on the wheel trying to NOT screw up.

two things i try to kep in mind: you can't tell emotion from what someone types (i.e. the term "Pushed"), and if you're racing with someone you've never been around before, you don't know what their behavior will be.
i'm sure there's guys you race with all the time, and when you do, you know what they're gonna do in certain situations.

on to the next one(i hope, who knows if we are even "in" yet).

@ paul......no need to fret, man. Was merely a racing incident. I was under the impression you were going to stay to the left(just as i did for you at 12:15.08) as you had taken the inside lane. It seems i was up a bit farther than you explain, and your momentum took you to a place i was intent on occupying. Experience should have told you there is a noob in a disadvantaged FXR outside of you and to just repass on the straight.....(yes there actually ARE a few amatuers in this league).
At the time, it seemed like an avoidable incident, had i been given the same amount of space i gave you. At just before 17:00, you made a similar "outside" pass in the last chicane, and i lifted to let you thru...as it benefitted both of us. Had i also "held my line", we both would have been twatted up with the whole pack coming at us.

i tried to give you all the room you needed and then some...the contact in the chicane was purely accidental. my fault, my apologies.....

those rims are gonna look really nice on my xrt/nasa shuttle

Results for ALL provisional races AND the Main Event will be entered into spdo database...to inflate your e-penises.

Provisional Pole time is currently 39.22 for Welty in XRR. Can you beat him?

GTAL race starts at 18:15 UTC, for 2 hrs +......hope i can make it b4 qualy ends...
