* PENALTIES :
[ﾏ] Yasin - receives 9.23 seconds penalty added to his finish time for minimum pit time violation.
B2ﾏ TωϊnCΔm - receives 30.29 seconds penalty added to his finish time for minimum pit time violation.
｢DD｣ tBug - receives a DISQUALIFICATION from results for unsportsmanlike conduct (intentionally cutting track to gain big advantage and cheat qualifying result). Since his server behaviour in chat has received multiple complaints and his past behaviour shows up multiple incidents (last noted was on 71st RTFR XL),Race Green Events has no other choice as to give out "cool down" ban for 1 month from all hosted events,starting from date of 73rd RTFR XL. If the behaviour does not improve after serving this ban,a longer race ban will be given.

A very interesting coincident happened during the last 2 Race Green Events hosted races - in both AWS 2023 round 4 on monday and the 73rd RTFR XL on tuesday the race was won by a first time participant in the respective event series and both winners did so by leading just a single lap - the last one! If on monday that happened from race situation and the way how bumpdrafting in high speed oval works,then tuesday's situation was caused solely by actual leader's double mistake - first he did a too short pitstop,then the repeated pitstop was too long allowing the rival pass by - the 2nd pitstop was 3.5 seconds longer than required minimum and the race was lost by 2.2 seconds. Also this race saw the biggest attendance since 67th RTFR XL,which also gathered up 30 drivers in it's qualifying session.

The AWS 2023 standings leader A.Valta was not much seen on the broadcast as he was slowly losing sight to leader during the race while running 2nd,but the with the drama for race leader he just simply took over race lead on last lap and finished 1st to win his debut race in RTFR XL. Since he has chosen to hide his stats in LFSW,the win will be not awarded to any country (goes to "other"). After the finger biting mistake in pitlane,the leader of race's 50 laps R.Kardol rescued 2nd place,scoring his 8th pole position,10th fastest lap of the race and 35th top5 finish,but missed the chance to tie Botsi for all time most wins. Onur started 3rd and finished 3rd - that is his 2nd entry in top5,which is 2 positions better than his 1st entry. Fatal lost a lot of positions in 1st lap,did his mandatory pitstop right after it,rest of the race was just regaining positions to finish 4th - that's the 12th top5 finish for the 2022 RTFR XL standings winner. Texas closed the top5 by scoring his 5th top5 finish,that's his 1st one since 36th RTFR XL

* FUN FACT OF THE MONTH :
FXO was the 1st car that featured 30 or more drivers in a round - in the 2nd RTFR XL there were 32 drivers in qualifying,30 on the grid. These values were not beaten until the february of 2021,where the chance being shown on livestream atracted 1st maximum grid. Same was with races featuring the FXO itself - the next 2 races after the 1st record featured 15 drivers average until this tuesday where FXO returned to 30 atendees.

* CLOCK PITTER OF THE RACE :
M@CI3K completed his mandatory pitstop right after 1st lap,sat there for 10.15 seconds and left the pitlane - that was the shortest legal work free pitstop of the day.

* FIELD RUSHER OF THE RACE :
Dzidoris used a chance to join the race without qualifying,which is allowed by previous winners by default - he started from 26th position on grid,raced through field to finish 8th,gaining a total of 18 positions between start and finish.

VOD at Youtube:


Next week it's time for normal RTFR version,which will return us for another race in Rockingham,but the track will be a bit different. Full info will be posted here on the weekend as always. RTFR XL will return in 4 weeks time,combo is yet to be submitted by the winner of this race - he has time to reply the PM until next tuesday.

Quote from WCL J.A.Katila via RG discord :

Session: AWS 2023 Round 4 Race
Lap/MPR time: 58/38:51
Involved drivers: ZFRL LG-Mies (jokuhemmomummo6) and [WCL]J.A.Katila (jkat)
Description of incident: LG-mies steers left side rear part of my car causing me to spin and losing many positions

LG-mies can't hold line between bottom of track and car above,his car washes up and hits the car above - causing and incident that could have been avoidable.


* PENALTIES :
ZFRL•LG-mies - recieves a 30 seconds penalty (converted to 1 lap penalty as per rules for round 4) added to his finish time for avoidable incident on lap 58.

The fastest round of the season this year was round 4 - the Winter 200 has always been a different round and has produced different results. 18 cars on the grid is repeated 2nd highest number for this round (last year's edition tops the chart with 20 attendees) and once again the round produced thrilling race with unexpected turns of events. The result is the 12th different race winner in 12th time of running.

The US-american Happyd made his AWS league debuth this monday and celebrated it with a win straight away. Despite being in chaser position for majority of the race,with 7 laps to go all 4 leading cars were together for a short while,but soon Happyd with his collegue run away and in the final lap sprint passed him to lead the only lap that really counts - the last one. Championship standings 2nd placed driver Thehemuli could not set anything against his rival and finished 2nd for the 2nd round in row and for 3rd round in total this season. The 2019 Winter 200 winner Sobis was in charge of the race by being one of 2 leaders,but eventually a big mistake destroyed his and his collegues car's,so they could only limp to finish - 3rd place finish for Sobis.

The series leader A.Valta wasn't too relevant in fight for win this round as he finished 8th in the race,but still keeps standings lead after half of the season,but his lead has been decreased to 6 points. Thehemuli is still 2nd - this round brought him closer to leader and further from his main rival for 2nd place - Lorenzo is still 3rd,but now already 10 points away from 2nd place. This round was also part of the fight for the Oval Trophy - Happyd leads this competition by 2 points over Thehemuli and 5 points over Sobis. The 2nd and deciding round for this award is the round 7 in Rockingham Oval using a slower car.

Joining the series and winning straight away put Happyd in lead of Rookie of the year award chase - he is 10 points ahead of the driver with backwards spelled name,previous leader Richard has fallen down to 4th position due not attending.

In Teams championship the league hosts still keeps the lead and the gap to closest rival shrunk by just a single point - the biggest difference is that the closest rivals are now Master Race car,who took over 2nd place in standings. Zafiralis fell down to 3rd place,losing 4 points to MRc. 4th round,4th time most points scored - Finland does not have much competition this season and their lead has grown to 46 points over Czechia. Italy is still 3rd and also losing grasp for 2nd place chances as they're 32 points behind Czechia.

The 2nd half of the season will bring racers to Fern Bay in Jamaica for some slippery racing - the classing rallycross track will bring another heavy challenge for the racers with the 380 horsepower RS1 Kenji. This is where the drivers will be forced to manage the tyres through probably the hottest race of the season. The series will return again after normal 2 weeks break.

If someone hasn't received it due some mistake,please give a notification!

Signups are still open and new entries will receive PM at some point during sunday/monday.

The car class named PL200 (Performance Level of 200 BHP per ton) used in this league is based on LFS default TBO class performance - street legal cars with power to weight ratio of approximatelly 200 BHP per ton,running on Road Super tyres. To balance out faster cars,performance balancing will be used - cars lighter than 1100kg will receive primarly additional balast weight (if tyre performance allows) to reach 1100kg,then air restriction will be added if required. Cars heavier than 1100kg will receive primarly air restriction,if car is still overperforming at max restrictor,additional weight will be added. With time car overall performance during different tracks will be monitored,if a car is deemed to be over or underperforming,the balancing will be adjusted accordingly. Despite all the balancing,some cars will still have advantage on faster tracks,some - on slower tracks,that is considered to be part of the RandomCar spirit - racers have to make the best out of the car they received in draw.

To take part in RandomCar,signup will be required as it is needed to know who wants to take part,so we can draw a car for the participant. Signups will be made on yearly base - each year a new series will be run and with it new sign up required. Each year will also have it's own info thread with schedule,points system and yearly specific updates to series.

As a bonus for winning,the winner will be allowed to select the track for next race,however the selection will be limited to next 2 environments accoring to standard LFS list (refer to LFS track selection menu). Custom configurations/layouts will be allowed as long as they're deemed to suit the PL200 class. Both LFS ovals (KY1 and RO3),other very high speed courses and tracks partially or fully without pavement will not be accepted (too much advantage for specific cars). Additionally the winner will be allowed to suggest a mod car for the next car addition voting (held in Race Green discord server).


Event times:
18:00 UTC / 19:00 CET / 20:00 EET - 60 minutes qualifying

Rules:
* though this is just a fun race, so rule book won't be as long as race distance itself, but everyone should follow basic car-racing rules (like rules of clean racing) and keep sportsmanship in mind, so everyone can have clean racing fun in this event!

• Respect BLUE FLAG - you may not interfere passing maneuver of lapping car! In qualification - you may not disturb passing car in any way.
  
• Be careful at YELLOW FLAG - slow down if necesary, be ready to avoid crashed cars. Crashed drivers must make sure that their return to racing won't cause other incidents.
  
• No shortcutting in any way. 2 wheels must be on track every time. Track is defined by paved surface (tarmac/asphalt,concrete),curbs,green pavement (in Kyoto) and astroturf are legal extensions.
  
• Don't cross the pit exit (blend) line with more than 2 wheels and make way for cars racing at full speed.
  
• Be careful while racing, avoid any contacts with other cars. No crashing, ramming or any other unsportsmanlike behavior at any time.
  
• Drivers with high and/or unstable ping will be asked to leave if not improving it.
  
• No voting for restart/qualification/end race after qualification start (unless command is given to vote for start).
  
• Chatting during race is not forbidden, but pressing binds and (especially - unnesecary) texting too often can result in penalty.
  
• Not racing observers (including drivers who already have retired) may not use chat at all.
  
• This is specifically an individual event - every driver has to drive himself,no driver swaps are allowed.
  
• Manual clutch is allowed only when using axis clutch to avoid botton clutch misuse. Normally server is set up with an app to disallow button clutch.
  
• Car configs with safety car or police lights are forbidden as they are not deemed suited for racing in our events. Using such during official session counts as using unsupported equipment.
  

* every participant can recommend any changes to these simplified rules to make them better in any way, please report any mistakes found

In case you have any protests (crashing,blocking etc.) against somebody,please post them in this thread or in our discord server as soon as possible (best - right after race)! All protests will be reviewed and reckless drivers will be banned for futher events to keep clean and fair racing!

In case you timed out, crashed, run out of fuel and you have completed full 50% of race distance, please spectate and don't join again - replay will be analized with LFSstats and you will be added to final results! If you did rejoin in such situation, but still want to be added to results, you will have to inform event admins in server or post request in this thread.

A reminder - server will be password protected 1 hour before qualifying start to keep not knowing crowded server jumpers out of way,pass will be always the same: green

Pitting rules:
Race requires a minimum time spent in pitstall of 10 seconds. That can be done either with single pitstop or sum of multiple pitstops. Driver who has spent less time will receive penalty time added to his finish time,which will be calculated by tripling the missing time to complete neccesary minimum time and adding additional 5 seconds. Drivers failing to pit at all will receive 1 minute penalty added to finish time (10s*3 + additional 30s).

Some historic stats:
Last race won by: S1DUS*R.Kardol
Last FXO race won by: S1DUS*Botsi (34th RTFR XL - WE International)
Most FXO race wins: S1DUS*Botsi - 2 wins (Finland - 2 wins)
Last Rockingham race won by: RGˆM@CI3K (60th RTFR XL - MRT @ RO Oval)
Most Rockingham race wins: S1DUS*R.Kardol - 2 wins (Netherlands - 2 wins)

After 3 rounds with brand new cars for the league,the round 4 of AWS returns to it's "basics" - the FXR has been used more than every other car in this league and has been used in every single of 11 previous Winter 200 editions. This round surely has a potential to mix up standings a bit as oval racing requires slightly different skillset,while success heavily depends on driver's ability to team up with their competition. As always in the oval rounds we will use hotlap qualifying to ensure solo effort being decisive in order to take high grid positions. The running order of qualifying will be decided from Drivers Championship standings - lowest placed drivers will start qualifying while standings leader will take his run last. Everyone will have to run 3 laps - outlap and 2 timed hotlaps,after which driver should spectate,only fastest lap counts of course. 2nd timed lap is optional - theoretically cars are faster in 2nd lap,but in case of a mistake,driver can spectate without finishing 2nd timed lap.

As usual,to avoid many questions,Race Green Events' statement about bumpdrafting:
"With closed wheels cars it is not forbidden,but in case of any reported incidents it will be treated as intentional contact,so everyone has to make sure that he knows what he is doing!"

This is the last round of season's 1st half after which first conclusions can be drawn. But to start any conclusions,first it's needed to complete the fastest AWS round - FXR's are reaching speeds close to 300km/h mark when 2 or more cars work together effectivelly. But lack of such effectiveness can send drivers to back of the field for a frustrating 200 kilometers run. Patience and and experience will be key factors to clinch winner's honor in this one - will the list of 11 previous winners extended or maybe someone will go into history as first 2-time winner of this round?

Track: Kyoto Oval
Laps: 67 (200km)

* PENALTIES :
omega54 - receives a DISQUALIFICATION from race results for bad racing standards,causing multiple avoidable incidents. This will be considered as first and final warning - future similar behaviour will lead to race ban.

- - - - - - - - - -


After more than a year of mods being available in LFS it was time to use the most raced mod of LFS - the Prototype 2,which has circled almost as many laps (86k) online as 3 following mod cars (90k total). Even if this car was previously used in the testing version RTFR-CCCC,this week it had a proper debuth in the series. But adding an endurance car into sprint racing didn't went really well - lap one alone was plagued with multiple incidents,where many underestimated car's characteristics and many were just involved into incidents without option to avoid. With 38 drivers in qualifying,this was the most attended RTFR race since 2022 season 1 finale (280th RTFR),however only 33 cars were standing on grid - still the biggest seen LMP2 type car grid for many of us.

During pre-race practice and qualifying there was a distinct fastest driver on track - the 2022 season 1 winner joined this time under name of V.Lakūnas and set the fastest laptime in qualifying session,scoring his 11th pole posiion. However he left early without intention to take his earned grid spot. That left Fatal on top grid spot for the race and he used it fully - the finn led all 19 laps seeing not much trouble to score his 3rd RTFR race win,he is now the 30th driver to score 3 or more race wins here. He also set the fastest lap of the race - that's also his 3rd,while his top5 finish was his 18th. R.Kardol Was the only closer rival to winner as he finished 2nd just 5 seconds apart from winner,that's his 69th top5 finish,which means he has caught his teammate Unite once again to tie for 2nd most top5 finishes. Current AWS standings leader A.Valta finished 3rd to score his 13th top5 finish,followed by Onur in 4th position,who scored his6th top5 finish. Number closed the top5 to make an FM member on each end of it - that's just his 2nd top5 finish in RTFR.

This sounds wrong,so it might be wise to contact devs directly by using https://www.lfs.net/contact form - it is possible that this thread might be overlooked and problem won't be solved.

I would also vote for option 2 now,but with intention in future bigger update seperating the engine repair from other repairs per F12 menu setting,while also adding repair time for engine repair.

Round 3 of this season brough the first ever double header race of the league's history - that was the only solution to provide fast paced racing with electric cars as the recharge has been made more realistic compared to 1st LFS version allowing electric motors for cars. So the usual 40 minutes race distance was divided in 2 halves,creating new challenge and 2nd chances for racers as they had to start the race from same position twice.

Winner of season opener A.Valta had no real competition this time,so he led all 24 laps through both races gathering up almost 20 seconds gap over competition on round total,taking also both round bonus points. The race for 2nd place was more competitive - both Thehemuli and Lorenzo exchanged positions several times through both races,trading also positions between races,but the finn had bigger gap over his rival on race 1 than the rival over him in race 2,with this Thehemuli is scored 2nd and Lorenzo 3rd in final race results.

With this A.Valta added 50% gap increase to reach 15 points lead in championship table,which is a solid advantage,but everything else than guarantee with another 5 rounds to come. Also both following positions have not changed - Thehemuli is still 2nd,but after this round has at least 2 points gap over 3rd place driver Lorenzo. This was also 1st of two rounds for Megawatt award - the positions are exactly same as race results and coincidentally also overall championship standings,just the gaps are different - A.Valta has 5 points lead over Thehemuli and 7 over Lorenzo. The 2nd round for this award will be the season finale at Westhill on the dirt rallycross layout.

The competition for Rookie of the year award is still quite weak - despite attending just 1st round,Richard is still ahead on the table while being 17th overall,however he's been catched by Tbug on points,who is losing on tiebraker of highest finishing position.

No changes is teams championship - Race Green Autosports once again scored most points and increased their lead in standings - now they're 22 points ahead of Zafiralis. 3rd is still MRc,also losing points to their closest rivals - now 7 points apart from 2nd place. Also on top of the nations cup is status quo - Finland scored maximup points for the 2nd time this season and is now already 42 points ahead of 2nd place nation Czechia. 3rd is now retaked by Italy,but already 19 points behind 2nd place.

Now racers have just a single week break until next round - 4th round is already next monday. It features the only round that has been run unchanged through 12 years of AWS history - Winter 200. It's a 200 kilometers race on the very familiar Kyoto Oval using the fastest of original LFS AWD cars - FXO GTR. It has always been a cooperation effort as 2 cars are faster than one on the highspeed oval. High speeds mean less margin of error,that leads to high unpedictibility of the round - this is the round that can bring changes in championship tables.

Seeing the engine damage displayed in server now - maybe this should not be public,but same as fuel - shown to others only when enabled? Or at least as tyres - show color only without value.

Quote from Scawen :

Naturally it comes out as a "Health" value that starts at 100% and goes down from there

I'm wondering what does this percentage say? If I damage the engine to 90%,do I have 90% of power at each revs range?

Quote from Scawen :

I was thinking the engine symbol could start grey then go yellow then red with more damage.

That sounds like a good idea.

Seeing engine damage would be a valuable information,especially for learning drivers so they can actually see what and when leads to that damage. And regarding repairs - yea,LFS mechanics are insanely fast with repairs,so it wouldn't be that different if they were able to fix engine too,however I would suggest to have it as different option in F12 menu and also that in pit it would be a seperate repair section besides minor and major repairs.
And if we start the topic about repairs,maybe in bigger future update it would be better to slow the mechanics down regarding repairs (I assume tyrechange and refuelling are pretty much fine) to give people more "penalty" for not avoiding contacts. Also one other note - if tyres are changed,tyre pressure adjustments should not cost extra time as that's a predone work of mechanics.
