Quote from Turbo Dad :Bonus question 10

What does the green flag mean?



Everything's OK now. Go on racing.
Nothing. It isn't used in Formula 1.
You can pass the car in front of you.

I thought it meant breakdown assistance available

Quote from banshee56 :
I'm real big on the "gentlemens' agreement" thing, but being a league admin myself, I think that there must be a concise and throrough rule to make sure that a team that chooses to enter must do so with drivers of the type that this series is expecting.

Gentlemans agreement will not work imo, too vague, imprecise and open to abuse. An exact rule is required, as you stated.

Quote from obsolum :Well the combo gets chosen every week at random That way you almost always get an original combo that you normally don't race

Thats part of the attraction. I get to drive combos I've never touched before

Dont think I've even driven the FZ5 before this week

Cheers for organising the race Scott, nice one

Pity there was quite a few no shows, but not your fault!

Had a poor race 1, driving off the circuit all by myself for no apparant reason, eh

Race 2 was better (read cleaner) and managed a couple of pb's.

Looking forward to seeing how this develops into a series

After the ctra debacle, i dont think I have the patience required to work thru the LR system.

Some good racing on the Dead Men Racing server (when its populated). The track/car combo changes each week and theres an hour race on a Thursday evening. Good clientele, clean races and range of abilities. Check it out

Quote from count.bazley :Maybe have a maximum number of IGTC/MOE starts a driver can have. I believe this is how CART used to define a driver eligible for Rookie of the Year.

Could be, could be....

It would have to a pretty low number though.

Personally I see the IGTC as a feeder to MoE. How about maintain the absolutely no MoE experience rule and allow maybe 2 IGTC races over the last two seasons?

Remember we're not talking about excluding racers forever, they would maybe just have to sit out maybe one season until their IGTC starts became anulled.

Tis a tricky one for sure, but I'd differentiate between MoE and IGTC drives.

To make decisions on a "case by case" basis would lead to complete mayhem imo.

Quote from dekojester :Thanks for the compliments and good luck wishes, but I'd still like to see some things you'd like to see changed or think should be. It'll be still a couple weeks before we have a provisional rulebook out.

Good to see you guys getting involved

I've raced in a couple of your events and always found them well managed.

Changes/alterations/comments:

1. It would be good to see fuller grids.
2. We need more 6hr races, not just one at end of season. Maybe a 12hr finale?
3. I liked the no MoE/IGTC drivers rule. Gives the rest of us half a chance.
4. Would you consider the introduction of a push car/safety car?
5. Can the season be longer than 5 races pls? Although one a month was good spacing.
6. The restrictions should be the same as MoE GT2.
7. Will teams who raced in season 1 be given priority in the sign up? I can see this being MUCH more popular this time around.
8. Glad you're moving it to winter, far too many nice summer evenings spent in front of my PC....
9. The race end procedure should be followed or scrapped from the rules.

Quote from Storm_Cloud :Piquet has gone up a few notches in my estimation. Firstly, the disgraceful behaviour of Briatore at the last GP (leaving before the end because Alonso was out) really summed up how Piquet was seen and treated in the team. Secondly he whipped off his race suit to reveal a fairly big pair of bollocks by having a right old go at Flav both before and after he was shown the door.

Totally agree, that greaseball, primadona, f*ckwit, porn-film director look-a-likey Briatore is a fairly dispicable guy. An eye for a driver maybe, but he's lucky not to have both his eyes poked out for behaving like he does.

I really hope its a case of what goes around..........

Quote from Mojo1987 :The rule will be not changed in this season. After this season you can discuss with the new organisators. Nothing more to say.
Btw. we have often say that we DON'T change rules in a running season. Because it would be unfair to others teams.

You have read the rules and accepted with your application so you know the fact, that driver's which race in IGTC or MOE are excluded from GTAL.
So don't whine now about this rule!

Quote from traxxion :Totally agree.. Schumacher is 40 (!) years old, and has been out of competition for 3 years now.

Maybe he got some inspiration from Armstrong in the Tour, you can't hide class after all.

Great to see Schuey back behind the wheel, although I am very surprised that he's agreed to do so.

Kimi must be bricking it

Quote from HVS5b :Strike that, 2 seconds to find. Down to 2.22.00 now.....

Are people managing to make r2's work on the front ok? (FZR)

Finally, high 20's and low 21's in race trim.

What a big difference in handling with only a few minor adjustments to the set

Really looking forward to the race, going to be gutted when its over....

Lizardfolk, good post dude

Improved physics, brake heat/fade, interiors and new westhill layouts, now that would sort me out nicely. We all know these things are coming, but just how sweet a package would that be

Too early to hope for break off parts imo, I think that'll be one of the last things to be added before S3.

There aint a rush, when its ready its ready.

VWS, whatever

Quote from BlueFlame :Theres no news we've heard nothing for ourselves, why would Victor tell someone who was surely going to post that information here on the forum without posting a news thread first? It doesn't make sense really, unless it was a mistake of Victor.

I've been thinking it might have been a kind of "deliberate" mistake?
