Quote from BenjiMC :

In real life the drivetrain is fixed and we have tested on BL1 and WE1 and i tested AS7 and it feels fine. Somehow porsche got pretty near perfect gearing...

Downforce will be fixed, 4deg on the front and the rear can move between quite a big range i think.

From what i understand all the fixed values are:

• Drivetrain
  
• Spring rates - although new patch allows stiffer springs.
  
• Front downforce
  
• Brake pressure

Benji, is there any chance you could tell me where you found this information because I read the .pdf document (provided in the original thread) and theres nothing about the restricted downforce settings or dampers so I'd like to have a read through the document where you found this info . According to rFactor, the front wing is restricted at 1 degree and I think the max you can set for the rear wing is 10. Reason why I'm using rFactor for reference because the PCC 2007 mod was tested by one of the drivers of the PCC, Ralph Kalaschek so I'm sure he would've told them whats allowed to be adjusted and what isn't.

Correction: Rear wing max is 12

I have my own skin: suure

Finally!! I was wondering when you were going to sign up

@R3DMAN: I'd say with R2s, 1:09s are possible. I made a change to the set the day I got that lap but can't remember if I got a 1:10.35 with the new changes or the old set. If it isn't, change front pressures to 12.8 psi instead of the current 10.7.

Please post your completed skins here with the skin kits included that I've provided. Thank you.

Hi all! I'm considering changing the start time.

What do you think?

Last edited by Leprekaun, Tue, 27 May 2008 21:41.

Hi all! I'm considering making the events start at 7 PM GMT and not 8.

What do you all think?

I will most probably go with BenjiMC's idea of having two seasons. One small season (two to 3 rounds) and one later that will be many more.

Quote from [GR]Evolution :

Hey guys. I don't know if I have chosen the right thread for this but I had a enjoyful practice session last night with Lep and I have tweaked a bit the last set he gave me (tyre pressures and camber) and I wanted to share it. I did some high 34s without managing to put any clean lap. Might be able to get much lower though even with race pace. Is it ok if I post it here Lep although im not participating?

Yeah, sure .

@R3DMAN: At the moment, my best is 1:10.35 but still playing with tyre pressures.

To the rest of you: this isn't the final set. It still has to be tested. If it does the job round the other tracks, then we could consider it . I'm currently working on a setup that was originally Westhill and tweaked it for Blackwood (tweaked permitted settings).

Sorry Achim, no more Racing Minds teams. There are two already.

suspension is fixed too .

Well, after me and Benji (you're welcome to join in of course when we're on ) try and sort out a good baseline setup, I'll post the new rules regarding restricted setups. According to what we were looking at, the only things in suspension that are adjustable are ride height, dampers (both bump and rebound) and ARB, leaving just the spring stiffness. We're thinking of using 250 Nm spring stiffness to simulate the real cars. We tested it last night, its not too bad really . Dampers are hard to tune because you need to get them perfect or the car bounces too much or flies off.

Hi guys! well, I've decided to make this thread so that if you have any suggestions to improve the league, you can state here . Any discussions regarding race dates or start times are to be discussed in the race calendar poll.

Yeah, sure, I can make it run every Tuesday instead (1 day before each date)

well, thing is, theres a strong chance that I'm going away this summer. Theres a small possibility that I can still run the league when I'm away but theres also the chance that I'll be leaving my PC here in Egypt and won't be able to host it in Ireland. I just thought that there would be a lot of people who are eager to race so I thought we could get a few races in before the summer break

Yeah, I am afraid of that but way I look at it, if there are people eager enough to race, they will return to race more and for those who aren't too hot on the idea, its a shame obviously but I can always re-open registration again for the remaining rounds.

sorry to be a pain but is there any chance you could make the FZ50 and GT3 part of the title of the forum section all caps? I know it sounds like a stupid request but it just looks a bit weird the way it is now .

Would it be possible to add this banner too please?



and as I have it here in the message, to link to the forum section of the cup .

Thanks!

FZ50 GT3 Cup: Scrutineering

Scrutineering:

All drivers must send their setups to the league administrator at the end of qualifying to check whether there are drivers who have adjusted a part that's prohibited from adjustment.

In the case that a driver's setup doesn't abide by the setup restrictions, he will be put at the back of the grid for race 1.

Shift+P and Shift+S aren't allowed during any of the sessions. If a driver wishes to add more fuel and change for a new set of tyres, he may do so by stopping in a pitbox in the pitlane. If the driver flips his car and can no longer move, he must Shift+S and retire from the session (if in qualifying, his time will still be valid). A little note, please try to go to the furthest pitbox available in order to avoid confusing the drivers behind. This isn't a rule but simply a gentlemanly act that would be greatly appreciated.

If in the case a driver disconnects, whether intentionally or unintentionally, he will not be allowed to further participate in the session but his best time will still be accounted for.

Setup changes are prohibited during pit stops. This can be checked via LFS stats and if a driver changes setup during qualifying, he will be immediately disqualified from the session. If in a race, the league administrator will begin to impose the penalty system.

In the case that a driver does Shift+P or Shift+S, he will instantly be disqualified from that session (in the case of qualifying, he will not be permitted to race in Race 1).

At the end of every race, all drivers must send their setups. Any driver who Shift+P or Shift+S before the league administrator permits to do so will be disqualified from that race.

1st. 1 pt.

Right guys, time to vote for the preferred race calendar . Please don't vote unless you are a registered driver for the league. This is to avoid me to strip away votes from those who aren't involved in the league but voted anyway.

Original Calendar:

Last edited by Leprekaun, Tue, 27 May 2008 14:39.

NEW Rule: Teams are allowed to be of 1 driver. These teams will be known as privateer teams.

Thanks guys for offering.. Its my team manager who is running the servers for the team so we're trying to resolve the issue of the major lag (or warping cars) as its happening on all our servers. If we can't fix it, I'll let you know . He should be installing the LFS Car Restrictor on it as well when he installs mono (apparently, the equivalent of .net but for Linux) so that it can work.

Thanks

sorry man, I'm not running the server do don't know the IP address . Will add it as soon as I know it.

If any of you guys are interested in doing some FZ50 GT3 Cup testing, I'm heading to the server now. I have a beta set that we can use thats based on the average of all WR sets (suspension and brakes) but all other settings are based on Jet's BL1 Patch X set. Anyway, point is to test so if you're interested, come on down .

Yep, I will request all drivers to send their qualifying setups before qualifying and before both races. I will be enforcing a no Shift+S or Shift+P rule to better enforce the fixed setups system.

I'll be adding the setup parameters to the document once I calculate the average brake power of all WR sets. I've already done suspension now but still, I think we need to do some testing to make sure that the car is driveable.

On a side note, the server is now online so if you'd like to join in, I'm on the server now.
