This is why I think RallyX suits the B and J server to a T as most of the Time B and J is for a quick fix short races of 5 laps or so and when the server is Populated it can provide the most fun online racing that can be found.
One of the main reasons this works is due to the short races as if you got wrecked you waited for the next restart No problem, but if the races are made longer people then leave or you get new drivers joining and see the race is on lap 10 in a 25 lap race and move on elsewhere.
If CTRA works on distance and it creates to much work to recode I can see the problem Becky, but is it possible you can set a MAX number of laps to say 16 laps which is what I believe you get on SS1 @ Aston Cadet in the Fox as the problem only seems to be with FE RallyX Green the other two rallyX tracks judging by distance would be around 6 Laps and I think we could live with that, PS this paragraph could be complete Bull$&it as I am presuming quite a lot here
My track on the above link is still up for review Becky and if it needs editing for CTRA be my guest
Also if this was ongoing it may generate enough interest to keep the server Populated.
I believe most of the original crew that frequented the B and J have left it only to concentrate on the other licences, but now every time I look now at B and J in the hope of getting a quick fix there's no one In there.
It can produce some of the best racing if you can get 8 - 10 racers in there.
We are very pleased to announce another Two new signings to Team Halfords Racing.
Please welcome to Team Halfords Racing ............ Teedot and Richy
We have raced with both drivers mainly on CTRA Race 2 server in the GTR's and TBO's and both are very capable Drivers with a fantastic attitude that will allow us to push our existing members to the next level.
I would like RallyX to be added to the B and J server as it uses the same cars and the racing is simular to the AutoX tracks with minimal contact allowed It could also generate more interest in the server.
We are very pleased to announce Two new signings to Team Halfords Racing.
Please welcome to Team Halfords Racing ............ SpikeyMarcoD and a returning member Mr X
We have raced with SpikeyMarcoD on the CTRA Servers mainly, not only is he experienced with nearly 25,000 miles online, he is also a very clean, fun and fair racer with personal qualities that will enhance our team no end.
Mr X Has returned to Team Halfords Racing after leaving some time back and we are pleased to take you back on
Thanks for choosing us Spikey and Mr X .... Looking forward to the future
Get them all on the CTRA B and J server, you have a range of cars including LX's the Combo's are fun and the racing is generally close and fair with no worries about the odd bump here or there, also you have the benefit of the licence system with points given freely to the new racers and get decisively harder the higher up the ladder you go.
It's an ideal learning ground to learn car control as before the CTRA started up I had never driven any of the rear wheel drive cars or LX's and now I am competent enough to take what I have learnt in these cars into league races and all this was done in 6 weeks
If you don't use this server the idea could be copied over into your own server.
I believe if Arrow is to Follow A1GP format it will be under the British Flag
Why not use LFS Tracker upto 24 hrs before the race to choose the respective drivers from each country for each round with the second fastest driver from each country as the reserve.
Also you could have a rule that a driver can only race in one round to give other competitors a chance of taking part, otherwise it may just turn out to be a championship for hotlappers only.
The chosen driver would also have to submit a replay of their fastest lap so cheating would not be a problem.
We are currently looking to add a few Drivers to our line up, we are looking for some fun, fast ,friendly, mature and experienced racers who can join a close knit team and have time to partake in a few leagues that we wish to join in the near future, we are currently in the BOTT series.
The team consists of two sections Track and Oval which is quite unique to [HR] and we are looking for drivers for both and if you enjoy both all the better.
The team is over a year old and we have recently reinvented ourselves with a new website and Team Skins which you may have seen on the CTRA or Oval Servers recently.
So if you wish to join please PM me or apply here :
I do agree with Richard above as the BOTT Website itself seems to be under used at the present time - The Website should be our first port of call for Bott Issues not the LFS Forum.
