I like the idea and am interested (in fact my team is starting up a charity campaign later this summer also, see the link in my signature...but not to thread-jack...back on topic), but I think you may have more success with a shorter race. I would be willing 2-3-4-5$ to a cause for a 1 or 2 hour race, knowing the money went to a good cause. You may struggle to get teams to commit to a full-on 24 hour race.

That is the boat I am in, interested in helping but not sure If I can get my team comitted and set-up and adequately prepared for a full 24 hour race. You could probably raise just as much money (if not more) with a shorter race, its less commitment for the drivers, less server time, less admin work.

A 24 hour race is a cool idea, I have done them, enjoyed them and want to do more, but it may not be the best route for this cause. You may struggle to get a large entry list and no one wants to do a 24 race with only 5-8 cars, and that may happen.

I would suggest having the goal mouth flush with the back wall of the field. This way if the ball gets against the end wall, the offensive team can get behind the ball and push it in front of the goal and then a scramble in front of the net occurs. The way it was set up the other day, when the ball got against the back wall, it was basically a stale-mate and no one could do anything.

I do not see a rule regarding a car with massive damage/rolled over/burnt clutch. If a car is disabled, may he shift+P and quickly re-join or is he out of the match or...?

AAR is looking to put a team together, may need 1-2 extra players.

this should be really fun if there are enough teams...come on guys!

That actually works for AAR, 3 of us are all Atlantic Canadian and live within a 3 hours drive of each other.

My Hungarian team mate may have an issue

X.2.c says passing can occur at the drop of the green flag on the race start
X.2.d.2 says that if the start is aborted, we get 2 more attempts at a double file START

so after the aborted start, the 2nd time we came around I interpret that it is still a race start...thus passing is allowed

Endu isn't F1. Rolling start are for endu (I would suggest a Le Mans start but I dunno how to make drivers running to the car...)

Gentleman's Agreement: Everyone starts with their wheel boxed and 20 feet away from their computer desk. Start signal is given, everyone runs to the wheel, removes it from the box, runs to computer desk, hooks it up and drives away.

Session of Incident: Race
MPR Timecode -OR- UTC Time of Incident 00:53:50
Lap and Location of Incident: Lap 43
Your Car Number 98
Other Car(s) Involved 11
Brief Description of Incident

#11 appears to have a puncture or major issue, he is driving right smack in the middle of the driving line entering the chicane. I approached 100km/h faster than he is going expecting him to clear the way and instead he dived into the chicane as normal and gives me no space to complete a pass. I honestly had no where to go, he should not be in the racing line in the middle of the toughest, narrowest part of the track 100km/h off the pace.

98 is ok eh

The team has been around for quite some time but is relatively new to LFS. We were founded between a pair of karting buddies in 2005 who at the time raced Nascar Racing 2003 Season (the predecessor to iRacing) who moved on to LFS in the spring of 2011. We have since picked up another Eastern Canadian and a random Hungarian kid for good measure. We are still learning and growing but believe in trial by fire as we have participated in various New Dimension Racing series, Racing Minds 16Hour and the Masters of Endurance 24 Hours of Aston.

We seek to do more than just play a computer game and see our team as an outlet to do greater good. Rej and myself are heavily involved with the executive of the kart club, I run a local Radio Control Race club and help organize a local charity Soap Box Derby. You do not have to personally be involved in racing outside of LFS but I like the team to be a little more than just computer games.

We will take on another driver or 2. We are a easy-going team, I do not require a massive commitment (this is just a computer game after all, we never lose sight of that fact), I only ask that a driver gives their best effort and does not flake out at the last minute before a race. If you are a intermediate racer who wants to learn what being a part of a team is all about and wants to try some big events, we may be the right fit for you.

It's all good, I was kind of looking forward to running a 6 hour race in 3 hours. I was curious how you guys were going to pull that one off. :dopey:

Can we get clarification as the the race lengths of round 2 and 6...in the schedule thread they contradict themselves.

I assume Round 2 is 3 hours, Round 6 is 6 hours

I have never done NDR oval qualifying, can someone outline how the automated system works. Does each car get only 1 on track attempt?(outlap, 2 timed laps, in lap) or can you get multiple attempts in the 50 minutes, is the order random or based on points or something or is it like Indianapolis where you line up and it's first come - first served?
