Race statistics / RTFR .mpr folder / Event rating and other statistics (will be updated later this week)
This was sort of back to basics race - the popular peoples car of LFS raced in the longest track in the infield of Rockingham. XFG is the most attended car between all LFS original cars and between all cars that have been used more than twice - with all time average of 23.8 drivers per race over 16 races and the 17th race is the highest number for all cars. Having attendance of 36 drivers per race in last 3 races this race was rather a small step backwards,but still the 30 drivers racing this week produced plenty of action,overstraining broadcasters with decisions where to look.
With absence of winners from latest 29 races,someone else had to step in,however the guy who did it wasn't exactly a newbie - A.Valta has already 6 RTFR wins under his belt,2 of those in recent 2 years. The finn was the fastest in qualifying,scoring his 8th pole position,but found competition early in the other front row starter,who in his RTFR debuth led 6 laps,however an unfortunate contact sent him out of track and the way for 7th RTFR race win was clear for A.Valta,who on final lap also set the fastest lap of the race,scoring his 8th of those and also 22nd top5 finish. P.Koivunen repeated his best RTFR finish by finishing 2nd this week,scoring his 8th top5 finish 1 race before his anniversary 50th RTFR race. The fully finnish podium was completed by Thehemuli in 3rd position,who scored his 4th top5 finish in row and 14th in total. L.Rydh was the only non-finn in the top5 this week,but as a swede he kept this very regional - he scored his best ever results in RTFR,8th place in qualifying and 4th place in race are 7 positions better than previous best results in each session. Top5 was closed by True Alpha,who repeated the same result as in his previous race here 4 months ago and scored his 26th top5 finish.

Next RTFR in 2 weeks will be run with one of the modern GT cars,which and where you can see some hints in the broadcast. However next week the server will be given away to RandomCar - round 8 of the 2024 series will be run in probably the fastest course in league's history Aston National.

This time no new cars added to the list,however there is one minor update regarding restrictions between 2024 series rounds 7 and 8 - after winning 2 races in row,the LFS home grown RB4 GT confirmed that it is overperforming in certain conditions so it needs to be slowed down,so we're starting with a single percent of air restriction.

If broadcaster can comment the action on track from a car,I thought I could post results while travelling the ship - sadly the network connection in international waters is quite poor,so the results are posted just now... The quite radical small racing car was run in the rather unradical Blackwood this week and that for 75 minutes,which is not really something you usually see this car's counterpart in real life. But this is LFS and we race everything that's worth to do it and 25 racers were around to try their skills and luck,however only 23 of them were standing on grid.
With 2 race winning streak Gábor joined and seemingly set his sights on 3rd in row as he was the fastest in qualifying scoring his record breaking 12th pole position in RTFR XL. However he denied joining the grid and gave up his winning streak voluntary. With 3 winless drivers taking the top3 spots on grid,there were some thoughts of a first time winner in this race - Mandula repeated his best qualifying effort (3rd position) this week and on lap 10 took over the race lead to apply himself for race win. After some early struggles and also late battle he established himself in race lead,keeping it over the finish line to score his 1st ever RTFR XL race win,extending winning streak for Hungary to 3. It was his 8th top5 finish and an 2 position improvement compared to his previous best result,while also the 2nd race which he led (previous was 60th RTFR XL). The only previous winner in the top5 was Unite - he also had some chances for race win,however could lead just a single lap and eventually finished 2nd,officially scoring the 150th top5 finish for Finland and 28th for himself. During the chase for lead he set also the fastest lap of the race,that's his 5th already. Thehemuli seemed to be the number 1 candidate for his 1st win early in the race,however he was not able to keep up the needed pace and after leading his first 15 laps in RTFR XL,he settled for 3rd place finish,only repeating his best result - 2nd place in qualifying was an improvement by 2 positions. It was 3rd top5 finish for the finn,who set total count of top5 finishes of finnish drivers to 151. Also 4th place finisher Jsk had his best RTFR XL race - the 4th place in qualifying was an improvement by 5 positions,the 4th place finish was the better one of 2 top5 finishes and also he added himself to race leaders list with 3 laps. Top5 was closed by Madjester,who repeated his best result achieved last race.
* FUN FACT OF THE MONTH :
This is the first time for Hungary when a winning streak started by 1 driver was continued by other - Hungary joins Finland and Lithuania,which were the only countries until now with winning streaks done by multiple drivers.
* CLOCK PITTER OF THE RACE :
With car's fuel tank being able to take the car just over 2/3 of the race,it was clear that everyone will need pitwork,most of them refuelling and then waiting for 10s mark to leave pitlane - so it was an indirect pit clocker competition this time. Best of them was mr. 9.99 himself - Unite with a 10.05 seconds pitstop.
* FIELD RUSHER OF THE RACE :
136 qualified in low 20th position and finished 12th,making best progress during the race despite losing a position due penalty - 8 positions gain,1 better than 2nd best.
VOD at Youtube:
Next RTFR XL combo is already known as the new winner did not went into deep considerations - the 93rd RTFR XL will be run in rather classic combo FBM at South City's longest configuration City Long in reversed direction,one of rare chances for S1 licence owners to join. Next week we'll return to shorted RTFR racing,where other demo car will be run,however the track will still require S3 licence - full info will be posted in the weeked.

Unnecessary heated up discussions,however - such suggestion is very far away from being unique.
For those not following forum discussions often - Scawen did not rule out user created tracks in future,however he said LFS track editor is not suited for public use and he does not intend to update it for that in nearest future. Most can assume if it happens,then after the big tyre/lighting/1000Hz update,but this is just an assumption.

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).

First of all - let's keep the reports short and detailed. Without exaggerations of distance (it was 13m instead of 30m) or quotes of deceased racing drivers or praises how skilled you are (these 2 parts were removed). Thank you!
Both reports are about 3 incidents,neither of those display clean racing we would like to see,however neither of them includes actions needed to be penalized with result influencing penalties.
Incident 1: (lap 25,last turn) - TJ brakes very late,however does a lot to avoid hitting car ahead,ending up with a minor touch.
Incident 2: (lap 26,turn 2) - in the braking zone TJ enters turn rather early,Gábor leaves turn entry very late - both drivers practically go for same position and meet there with equal share of fault.
Incident 3: (lap 26,the "busstop" chicane) - Gábor takes very wide entry line,TJ uses that and jumps into inside - both cars collide when TJ understeers on 2nd left turn and Gábor does not react on car fully inside.
* PENALTIES :
｢ﾏｧ｣ TJ - receives a warning for avoidable contact in the "busstop" chicane - car on inside should be able to hold inner line through whole turn.
S1DUS*GáboR - receives a warning for insults in chat and unsportsmanlike behaviour after the finish. Future misbehaviour will lead to actual penalty.

The Container Sprint track is well known for some from V8 Racing League,where it's a regular challenge for the powerful single seaters,however for the Formula SAE member from McGill Racing Team it was a great ground to close racing - as you can see on stream,occasianally cars gaggled in packs and were racing for position. With 26 drivers attending,this was a step backwards in terms of attendance for this car compared to previous 2 races,but still 9 drivers more than all time average attendance.
Despite being just 2nd fastest in qualifying (repeated personal best),TJ proved he can still challenge his long time rival in this race - he slipped into lead early on and exchanged positions with polesitter several times before Gábor was able to create a gap for most of the race. However during last 1/3 of the distance the brazilian started to deplete the gap,setting fastest lap of the race just before catching leader - that's his 2nd one in RTFR. During 26th lap both drivers got involved in a bit physical dispute,eventually TJ took the race lead and last lap was just a formality before taking chequered flag for his 2nd RTFR race win and 9th top5 finish. Gábor started the day well,increasing his chances to stretch his winning streak by taking the pole position,which is his 31st,however during later half of the race could not upkeep high pace,allowing main rival to catch and eventually also pass him - 64th top5 finish for the hungarian and his winning streak has to be started again. Despite setting 2nd fastest lap of the race,Unite was not a contender for race win and finished 3rd with 10 seconds gap to winner - 83rd top5 finish for the 2nd fastest shoe in the field. The honorary "certificate" for winning the multicar battle goes to Thehemuli,who finished 4th overall in the race,taking his 3rd top5 finish in row and 13th in total,top5 was closed by a newcomer in the event series Suforr,who finished a race in RTFR with 2nd try and straight in 5th position.

Next week it's time for RTFR XL - it will be the 2nd appearance for Radix P6 in RTFR,however the 1st in the longer version,running in Blackwood's Historic configuration in reversed direction. Full information will be posted tomorrow. In 2 weeks RTFR will return with rather basic combo,more you can find out when watching stream recording or waiting for official information in the weekend before.

With 26 drivers attending,this was a step backwards in terms of attendance for this car compared to previous 2 races,but still 9 drivers more than all time average attendance.
Despite being just 2nd fastest in qualifying (repeated personal best),TJ proved he can still challenge his long time rival in this race - he slipped into lead early on and exchanged positions with polesitter several times before Gábor was able to create a gap for most of the race. However during last 1/3 of the distance the brazilian started to deplete the gap,setting fastest lap of the race just before catching leader - that's his 2nd one in RTFR. During 26th lap both drivers got involved in a bit physical dispute,eventually TJ took the race lead and last lap was just a formality before taking chequered flag for his 2nd RTFR race win and 9th top5 finish. Gábor started the day well,increasing his chances to stretch his winning streak by taking the pole position,which is his 31st,however during later half of the race could not upkeep high pace,allowing main rival to catch and eventually also pass him - 64th top5 finish for the hungarian and his winning streak has to be started again. Despite setting 2nd fastest lap of the race,Unite was not a contender for race win and finished 3rd with 10 seconds gap to winner - 83rd top5 finish for the 2nd fastest shoe in the field. The honorary "certificate" for winning the multicar battle goes to Thehemuli,who finished 4th overall in the race,taking his 3rd top5 finish in row and 13th in total,top5 was closed by a newcomer in the event series Suforr,who finished a race in RTFR with 2nd try and straight in 5th position.

The of round 7 brought quite an unknown factor in the field - it wasn't really known if this track suits powerful cars with it's straights or agile cars with the tricky turn sequences,but now when looking at the results it's more the 2nd option,however 2nd place finisher was with car more suited for fast tracks. with 21 drivers this was the lowest attended round of the season and repeated 2nd lowest of the 1.5 years short history of the league - however this is a known trait of many leagues where attendance is dropping towards end of season and during summer vacation time,august round might be even lower attended.
RB4 was deffinitelly one of the best suited cars for this track and the lithuanian driver with only numbers in his name was the only one to get it in draw. 136 was over 2 seconds faster in qualifying over almost 200 seconds long lap and was already 3 seconds away from competition when crossing 1st split of 1st lap. During the race 136 found almost another second to improve fastest lap and finished almost 22 seconds ahead of competition,clocking by far the biggest margin of victory this season. With this the RB4 is the 2nd car ever to win and set fastest lap of the race in back to back races while it was the 1st time ever when a single car was on pole position in 2 races in row. Current championship standings leader J.Holmes got the 1.5 ton sports car of late 90ies (just like the not attending standings 2nd place) and wasn't too pleased with it in qualifying,setting just 4th fastest laptime,but had a good start with it,taking 2nd place already in 1st lap,but that's where his progress stalled and the englishman repeated his lowest finishing result in this series. Another non-continental european took the bottom step of the podium - Twincam put his FXO on front row in qualifying,but lost the position early and despite all the efforts never regained it. He finished over 2 seconds behind closest rival in 3rd position,repeating his best finishing result here.
With 2nd place finish J.Holmes of course kept his lead in standings,however his closest rival is the most recent winner 136,who is now 21 points behind,M lost another position and is now 3rd with 34 points gap to leader.
Born 2 Race repeated season highest score of 44 points and with that extended their lead in teams championship to 52 points over defending champions RGA,Zafiralis is still 3rd and starting to secure the position more and more. Only a single lithuanian attended in this round,so Lithuania's lead over defending champions Finland was reduced to 40 points,no changes in 3rd position either - UK sets apart from rest of the table. There is however a new leader in manufacturers championship - BZ30 is the 2nd model that has reached the required 6 scores and has better points average than XM-5,leading by 6 points. 3rd is XF Coupe,which still needs the 6th score to be eligible for championship,but currently has better average score than leaders.
Most drawn car of the round was 8JFZ SUPERCELESTRAL with 4 draws,however only half of them arrived,closelly followed by Acosta,Stellar and Talot with 3 draws each. Most drawn car all time is still Talot with 42 draws,Acosta has cought up to BZ30 and Imprezzive B2 - all 3 cars have been drawn 39 times.
8JFZ is also the first to mention in new highest results section - J.Holmes' 2nd place finish is 4 positions higher than his rival's previous best result with this car. 2 drivers swapped the best results with the cars - Twincam finished 3rd and beat Arska's 4th place finish with FXO (and repeated 2nd place in qualifying),while Arska beat Twincam's 14th position with Fend Torus by finishing 12th. Also other version of Fend Torus saw the best result improved - Thehemuli qualified the Fend Torus T in 7th position and brought it to 4th place in finish,beating J.A.Katilas 20th and 16th positions respectivelly. 2 cars were drawn for the 1st time,both were also used straight away,setting new initial best results - LG-mies run the FZ70 to 18th in qualifying and improved the result in finish to 11th position,but Unite qualified 14th and dropped down to 19th in finish with the Bavaria A34.
Next round theoretically should be the fastest ever in RandomCar - the selected track consists of 3 long straights and few tricky turns that connect them. The race in Aston National will be 15 laps long and with 84 kilometers it will be the longest distance in the series besides the 1h season finale race. Cross your fingers to not get a low power car for next round!
