Cars will be drawn in 2 waves:

Server is now passworded and password has been sent to all entrants via PM.

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

Signups are still open (until 16:50 UTC raceday) and new entries will receive PM at some point during saturday/sunday.

The decade season opens in environment not visited for 5 years - Kyoto! Previous race in Kyoto was held in 2019 where the good old Formula V8 was run in roval configuration named National reversed,so why not celebrate the return in exactly same track which features both high speed oval section using roughly 80% of the oval itself and the infield section with very variating turns complexes. Setting car's aero for high speed will give you free pass over oval section,but you'll have hard time in infield,however with other way round you might be a sitting duck for competition - what will be your choice?

The 600 horsepower car is awaiting it's challengers - currently the signing up activity is low,however the list already includes 2 vice champions,so don't miss out the chance to put your name in the 10 years long history of V8 Racing League - either as polesitter,race winner or even series champion! Newcomers have the chance to become the best rookie of the season,while everyone else can be a vital part for their team or country on way to teams or nations championships.

Race statistics / RTFR .mpr folder / Event rating and other statistics (will be updated later this week)

Once again we had a race which proved that RTFR is running a high variability of cars - this week we run a high difficulty car,representing F1 from mid-to-late 60ies. That's an era,where engine powers were growing,car sizes and weights shrinking,but grip levels - not keeping up with other advances. This,coupled with bumpy and twisty South City,created probably biggest challenge of the year,but still we had 25 brave drivers ready to take it in qualifying,one less standing on the grid. The race caught up plenty of high tier drivers in incidents as without the real life dangers known when racing such cars,some were too brave and got way too close to each other... Atrition rate was somewhat better than the one in this car's original time - only 1/3 of starters retired.

Current standings leader A.Valta seems was able to adapt to this car best - he was fastest in practice,2nd fastest in qualifying and after using polesitter's mistake to take lead,he led 16 laps on his runaway drive to victory lane. The finn scored his 8th RTFR race win,9th fastest lap of the race (3rd this season) and 24th top5 finish. Gábor was fastest in qualifying for the 3rd time this season and 32nd overall (still 2nd most),but could not keep the pace unter pressure,which ended with a lead losing mistake,so he had to settle for 2nd place finish,scoring his 66th top5 finish. 3rd in finish with already half a minute gap was Unite,who scored his 85th top5 finish (still all time 3rd most),followed by Sean in 4th position,who scored his 5th top5 finish in his 10th total finish. Top5 was closed by driver,who had only his 2nd attendance in RTFR - Shoulda improved his previous result by 8 positions.

Next week the server is given to other series - RandomCar 2024 Series round 9 is to be held in Rockingham,which will set up standings for season finale in october. In 2 weeks RTFR will return with one of the slick tyre cars - again some hints about combo can be seen in broadcast,but full info will be posted in weekend before. And there are also some news about next RTFR XL now - the combo for next race has been submitted by winner of previous race. It will be the 4th visit of the year in Aston,where on GP reversed configuration we will race the car well known from Retro Cup - Cammera JGT. This combo will be set up in RTFR server shortly for laptime testing. Another activity from RGE this week - this sunday the 10th season of V8 Racing League will be started in Kyoto! Make sure you don't miss a chance to join the action and chances to become the new VERL champion - full information and signups in VERL forum section.

Yes - add them normally just like default cars,then LFS will generate path files for them and you're good to go.

For those who missed - video on demand from today's race,works as a showcase for the car:

Quote from MousemanLV :

Just accept the fact that there are many aspects where LFS lacks and we can't do nothing about it.

Funny and very ironic you say this,because I am one of those who accepted the way LFS is (hence my free time input with all the events without intention to search for "greener fields") while you're one of those who moan about everything,complain how slow devs are and praise how good everything is in other sims.
But hey,don't worry,it's just another 3rd grader type of answer.

How about an old school short distance Grand Prix race in London's borough with this death trap? Not sure if there are enough ambulance cars around today...



Attached the RTFR promo skin in case someone likes it to have even if it's design is a bit out of car's time.

Quote from JayDeM :

people have spent their money on.

And that exactly is the biggest problem here! The money people spent is not enough to live with for 2 (and a half?) developers AND maintain web services with high level DDoS protection,which in normal world (with people with healthy thinking) would not be even needed.

Quote from JayDeM :

10+ years and can't come up with solution.

Can you?

Quote from JayDeM :

why isn't scawen able to prevent this

Because there is no magic switch to turn off idiots with access to way too much resources. And high level DDoS protection costs a lot of money,which is obviosly not involved in this indy project LFS is.
From various Discord discussions I've seen many wannabe experts (including you) who propose to simply turn off DDoS attacks or suggest other very simple solutions,howeven none of them actually maintains any internet based service - so their "expertise" is very questionable.

Race statistics / RTFR XL .mpr folder / Event rating and other statistics (will be updated during the week)

* PENALTIES :
[FM]ˆStrutter - receives 10 seconds penalty added to his finish time for pit exit line violation.
[MRc] jsk - receives a warning for unsportsmanlike conduct (crashing driver on victory lane).
hermanni - receives 10 seconds penalty added to his finish time for pit exit line violation.
ｨﾑm® E.Lima - receives 5.18 seconds penalty added to his finish time for minimum pit time violation.
[MRc] Michal - receives 7.01 seconds penalty added to his finish time for minimum pit time violation.

- - - - - - - - - -

Formula BMW has always been rather a people's car - relativelly simple and yet fast due it's low weight,slick tyres and downforce. However in RTFR XL it has been very unpopular - in both terms of selection and attendance. Last time it was selected for 25th RTFR XL (more than 5 and a half years ago) and it has lowest all time average attendance. With 20 drivers attendace it will climb up to penultimate position now,but it still recorded repeated lowest attendance of this year.

Having in field just a single driver with a win recorded in latest 3 seasons,this was again a race for a potential new first time race winner. This honor was taken over Fragmasters' representant Rex,who had his best ever RTFR XL race as in his previous 4 attempts,where he finished 6th as best result. This week the pole led 21 laps having several lead changes with the polesitter,leading also the last 7 laps on his tyre survival run to victory lane. His 2nd position in qualifying was also an improvement - 2 positions better than previous best,while Rex set also fastest lap of the race. After scoring his 1st pole position,the defending race winner Mandula set sights on a 2-in-row possibility,however late in race encountered hardware issues and had to settle for 2nd place finish,scoring his 9th top5 finish,but by leading most of the laps he exceeded 100 laps led mark. Best personal race was also for 3rd place finisher Suforr,who's previous best finish was 8th position,also his qualifying result was an improvement - from 7th to 3rd. 30th finish for Thehemuli resulted in 2nd top5 finish in row - he crossed the finish line 4th,increasing his total of top5 finishes to 4. The most successful racer in the field was Unite,who finished 5th,scoring his 29th top5 finish (still 3rd most).

* FUN FACT OF THE MONTH :
Despite running a full spec racecar,this race was the slowest in past year - this race clocked just 146km/h average speed,which is 35km/h slower than average of previous 12 races and almost 3km/h slower than latest LX6 race in South City.

* CLOCK PITTER OF THE RACE :
...is once again T.Soini - this time his workfree pitstop was 10.10 seconds long - just a tenth shorter than 2nd best.

* FIELD RUSHER OF THE RACE :
Despite blown tyre and penalty which cost him a position,Strutter still managed to have the highest progress during the race with 7 positions gain - from 15th in grid he is classified 8th.

VOD at Youtube:


Currently the race winner has not answered message about next combo,so information about that will be posted later. But information about next RTFR will be posted already this sunday - some already got hints from broadcast what to expect,and that will be probably one of the most difficult tuesday evening drives for many participants. In 2 weeks server will be relayed to RandomCar,where penultimate round of the 2024 series will be held in Rockingham.

Rules:
We will not make a mile long rule book that noone will read completely anyway,so we will rely on common sence of competitors to behave and follow the basic Rules of Clean Racing. There will not be an admin in server who will specifically observe drivers' behaviour during the race,so any action will be made only after protest while all retirements will be investigated automatically. If any incidents reported/protested,we will take individual approach to each of them to decide best fair resolution or punishment if needed.

Basic guidelines as a reminder:
> Blue flag - you may not deny/block a passing manouvre of laping car and try a repass right after it. In qualification it means - stay off racing line and don't disturb drivers on hotlap.
> Shortcuts - 2 wheels on track at all times. Track is mostly marked by white lines,while also curbs count towards track. Overtaking outside track limits counts as illegal and will be penalized in case of a protest.
> Contacts - have to be avoided at all costs as always when racing open wheel cars,that includes also bumpdrafting.
> Pit exit - allthough there will be no mandatory pitstop in this league,due smaller fuel tank pitting will be needed,so pit exit lines will have to be respected - drivers may not cross the pit exit line with more than 2 wheels and have to make way for cars racing at full speed. Failing to comply with this rule will award them with 10s penalty,while causing incidents will result in bigger penalty. Pit entry lines will not be monitored,they serve just as guidelines.
> Pitlane speed - round 2 is run on track where is no LFS-side enforced pitlane speed limit. Here the speed will not be monitored,however if an incident happens due high speeds,driver will be penalized for avoidable incident.
> Chatting - it's not completely outruled,but still drivers are expected to concentrate on racing. In case of too much chatting while ignoring messages asking to cease chatting,a penalty may be given. In case of any abusive/offensive language a penalty will be given! Any in server present observers/spectators are not allowed to chat at all during race session!
> Lags - if there are any connection issues,driver will be asked to improve (close internet using programs). If driver will be considered as dangerous due to unstable connection and high ping,he will not be allowed to participate at the current round.
> Hacks/cheats - if used,you will not race with us. Ever. As simple as that.

Possible penalties:
> WARNING - any minor infraction that needs to be noted without penalty. Warned driver might receive bigger penalty for other infractions.
> 10s added to finish time - minor infractions,like illegal passing,pit exit line violation,too much chatting.
> 30s added to finish time - medium infractions,like causing avoidable incident[s] without serious consequences,illegal passing.
> 60s added to finish time (1 lap penalty in round 2) - medium infractions,like causing avoidable incident[s] with consequences to other drivers (like damage,multiple position loss) or unsportsmanlike behaviour.
> Disqualification for 1 or more rounds - heavy infractions,multiple incidents,unsportsmanlike behaviour. After serving disqualification,driver will automatically carry a "warning" for the rest of season.
> Series exclusion (including ban for any other events run under Race Green Events control) - serious infractions like intentional/revenge wrecking,event sabotage and any other malicious act.

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.

Quote from B2ﾏ TωϊnCΔm via RGA discord :

Event: 340th RTFR
Lap: Lap 2

First chicane Hit by Neves. And above as i said lap 3 under the bridge continuing to murder Hermanni in the right hander by cutting across the grass at full speed collecting Hermanni while trying to remove me from the race for his mistake.

Neves's behaviour was monitored through whole race - the driver shows signs of impatience and lack of effort to avoid any contacts,while after a later incident he obviously goes for a revenge wreck.

* PENALTIES :
[H2O] Neves (LFS licence: PedroNeves110) - is disqualified from race results for multiple avoidable contacts and receives a 6 months ban from Race Green Events organized events for revenge wrecking.

- - - - - - - - - -

Previous race was run with LFS's own people's car,this week the race was held with a car from a class that is becoming a people's car in GT racing - GT4 class car N.400S. With it's relativelly simple handling (still offering some challenge) it attracted a total of 37 racers for qualifying session - that is the highest number since 326th RTFR run in february,however 3 drivers decided to leave before the race,so we had 34 cars standing on grid.

Gábor returned to RTFR after missing 1 race and started the return of being fastest driver in practice. Even if he was outpaced in qualifying,after chasing the polesitter for 5 laps,he used rival's mistake and slipped into race lead,leading rest of the race to become all time most successfu driver in RTFR as the hungarian scored the record braking 37th race win. Additionally he scored his 32nd fastest lap of the race (already all time highest) and 65th top5 finish. The 2024 season 1 champion M joined his first race in the 2nd season and started with a 2nd place finish upgrading his 4th place on the grid - that's 23rd top5 finish for him. Despite having some position trades during race,TJ finished in same position he started - 3rd,rounding up his top5 count to 10. Current standings leader was the fastest in qualifying scoring his 9th pole position,however A.Valta's race went south after mistake in lap 5 as it was the start of his positions regress,which ended in position 4 - also he scored his 23rd top5 finish. 5th place in both sessions was taken by Unite,who scored his 84th top5 finish (still 3rd most).

From track layout alone it was known this round will break speed records of RandomCar and the race did not dissapoint - the average speed was almost 6 km/h higher than previous fastest race in the league,run in april last year in Kyoto,it was also almost 12km/h faster than all time average. Unlike last year,the august round was not the least attended - this tuesday there was 1 driver more than in previous round,however 3 of them left before qualifying and this round had the smallest grid of the season with 19 cars,but since all of them finished,this was just repeated smallest finishers count. In this fast track having car known being fast on straights was very advantageous,however only drivers with good set of skills were able to put them in high positions.

After missing 2 rounds,the previous championship leader returned to series and that with good performance straight away - he got a medium powered car,which has a rather low drag,helping it to reach high speeds in long straights. M got the Cammera,which was republished just before previous round,and set with it fastest lap in qualifying,becoming the 1st ever driver,who scored 2 pole positions with same car. Despite bad start,the lithuanian regained lead at the end of 1st lap and with it led every single lap of the race,pulling away from competition unchallenged from 2nd lap - with that he scored his 2nd race win of the season,3rd overall,taking also the point for fastest lap. Rest of the podium also finished in same position they started - Unite,who was running BZ30 once again,finished 2nd and Rejekt completed the podium in his 2nd RandomCar race with the most powerful car on track that day - the 1.8 ton CZR.


Despite attending only qualifying and scoring only 2 points from it for 2nd place,J.Holmes keeps his lead in drivers championship,but the points gap has been reduced to 12. 2 drivers are now these 12 points away from leader - M is in 2nd place,ahead on tiebreaker (2 wins against 1),followed in table by his teammate and countryman 136. Based on highest gained points in this season (league uses attendance affected points system),only 8 drivers are considered still in the race for drivers championship,however it's quite clear that the race itself will be held between the top3 as rest are simply too far away.

In teams championship only 2 teams remain as championship candidates and with 68 points gap Born 2 Race are clear favourites over defending champions RGA. Zafiralis is still 3rd,however they're closelly chased by 2 strong teams and cannot afford another low scoring round as this one. In nations cup the title contenders are twice as much,however realistically also only top2 are still in race - Lithuania has lost 1/3 of their big lead over last 3 rounds and currently has 37 points gap over charging defending champions Finland,if the current trend continues,the double points scoring season finale might be crucial. UK and Poland still can mathematically take nations championship,however it's unlikelly they will change positions even between themselves. Manufacturers championship is still led by BZ30 Roadster,Talot has scored it's 6th score,making it eligible for championship - that puts the make in 2nd position,XM-5 is now 3rd. There are still several manufacturers,who can get their 6th score and get involved in championship - one of them even with higher average score than current leaders.

4 cars were drawn 3 times for this round,but in the race there were only 2 pairs of same car models,making the field quite variating. Talot is still the most drawn car,now having 43 all time draws,followed by BZ30 with 41,the undrawn Acosta and Imprezzive B2 still have 39. Additionally 2 drivers got the 4th draw of same car (still highest count) - 136 got XF Turbo 5 and Unite the BZ30.
With just 19 drivers starting,there are still plenty of best results in this round. First is the driver in first - M did repeat Cammera's best qualifying result achieved by himself,but his race win is the 1st for the car as previous best finish was achieved by A.Valta,who finished 5th. J.Holmes' 2nd place with CZR in qualifying was 1 position better than his main rival's M's best achievement with the car. The best results fight between Twincam and Arska was alive also in this round - this time Twincam improved Arska's best finishing result with Poscher Caynam with 5th place finish,which is 4 positions better. Jsk used Dash as the 1st ever driver and put it's initial best results as 14th in qualifying and 11th in race. The 2 finnish drivers race for best initial result with Adda Ar-Eight was won by Harri K.,who was 15th in qualifying and 13th in race,just a position ahead of his direct rival. Roku Troeno's best race result is now 19th,4 positions better than Tbug's classified result without finishing race.

The selection of next track has been given to race winner - M has his 2nd and last chance to select track in this season,however he hasn't submitted his choice between Rockingham or Layout Square options yet. Next round will be the last 30 minutes race of the season as the season finale will be a 1 hour race for double points.
