Quote from DeadWolfBones :

It would also gift the lapped cars with an entire lap back, which is sort of a huge insult for the faster teams who put in a lot of hard work to get ahead of them. I'm sorry, but this won't be happening.

Additionally, the blue flagged cars would probably want to do pitstops as well under SC making this idea even more complicated.

Quote from Jouman :

I would like to add to your list:

- Lap 68 car No.104 leaves a cap before safety car and stars an overtaking manouver before the green flag. IMO you clearly overtake two or three cars before the flag is green.

But anyway checked the second half replay out of interest and that is admins nigtmare, if it were the actual race.

Yes, I partly agree. The problem was that you guys got very slow and I tried to avoid to ram into you. We still made a little contact and as I tried to re-group behind you the green flag /rcm came and I found myself on the inside line.At this point I didn´t know where you where at ( cockpit view ) and accelerated. I can see on the replay that I was mayby half a lenth beside you already when the green flag came and agreed, this could have gotten me into trouble in a real race.

@Danowat. Yes, he overtook me under yellow and not just me but the guy in front of me as well. But this guy decided not to let this happen and overtook your driver once more under this SC period.
And as of his overtaking me: It was NOT done, or NOT EVEN nearly done as the SC message came on screen. But I wonder if the various racers get all these /rcm´s at different times at their PC´s at home.

@ And looking at the picture once more I wonder if this /rcm in yellow "Safety car deployed" is the same as a "yellow flag" message ?

Wanted to say that you guys ran very well today too, Kolz. A big improvement over your pace last season.

Reminds me of him, a kind of.. good luck.

Good it was a test race only.

- [TDRT] 104 T.Jessen, he told me, had his settings at "always change tyres", "not setup changes" and "no damage repair" as he leading this race, does his pitstop and,however, it fixed all damage and we only got 1 tyre changed. (LFS bug?)
- Lap 79, the later Race Winner No. 03, Adaptive Racing Team I think it was, overtakes us and gains 3th position under SC period.No overtaking under SC...
- Lap 80 we lost some positions once more under a SC as we´re hit from behind
- Lap 82, car No.23Team"Fred Loves Pie" doesn´t have any overlap and takes TDRT on 4th position out once more.
- We had to race against blue flagged cars a lot of times.C´mon ppl., don´t decide the race...
Good this was a test race only...

Anyways, thanks to the race admins. Season 2008 is going to be a lot of fun, I´m sure about.

Quote from BenjiMC :

Absoloutly no overtaking.

The SC car you do overtake if you´re not the race leader.

Quote from Dru :

Quali

First stint

Second Stint

Thanks a lot, I def. can use it to see the Q once more but I want to do the stats of this testrace.

Q: Admins, can we get a full replay of the race please?

Quote from srdsprinter :

*This is an idea purely for the sake of dialogue*

What would be your thoughts as to letting more entrants into the series, and have legitimate qualifications on speed?

Top 29 race, below that don't.

Thoughts for it:
1) I doubt even with 40 teams entered that we would have to cut cars on race day.
(Teams always fail to show up; we Averaged 13.25 teams per race last season and our largest field was 17)
2) Encourage teams to really prepare
3) Legitmately make it a full competitive entrance (without the safety of a guarenteed spot)

Obviously not for a test race, but I believe this could boost the average race attendance and competitiveness of the series.

I think it´s a very good idea.

Quote from msmolt :

yes it can. And yes I am a US citisen. lived there my hole life . This is the first time ive ever been out of the Northwest much less out of the country When your in the biggest city and tourism place in the hole country. Asterdam lol Yeah you find people that speak English. You get into a small farm town your very lucky to see anyone mush less find someone to speak English. Everyone got grate ideas you can buy this you can buy that. the hole point of my first post was well no I cant buy shit I ant seen 5 bucks in 3 years DA. What part of I CANT WORK HERE dont you get ? No green card and cant get one and the point was to bad people got trash thing that are good and free for others. I really didn't post it to have to defend myself. I was saying hey I cant buy S2. Like has been said already I'm out of here in may thank god. you dutch can have this 50 year behind times suck a$$ place. Its the most dirtiest place I have ever seen. And that goes with 80% of the dutch people too. there the dumbest and laziest people Ive ever seen .now enough. And you can bet all never leave the states again

Dumbest and laziest people you´ve ever seen ? Well, you seem to adapt just fine here. After 3 years you should be able to talk and understand the Dutch language. But you just travel home again. I´m sure Europe won´t miss you.

Yes, I´ve seen this before. Not sure at all if this could cause an error like this but have you used an application that changes your character into a normal person (no race suit on or helmet or gloves) mayby?

No idea.. it´s your league.. ;-)

Car 1: Stormracing
Car 2: The Danish Racing Team
Car 3: The Danish Racing Team
Car 4: Alias
Car 5: Alias

Hmm.. 5 cars only. Mayby include a diff. car class in order to get some more cars on the grid.

Quote from Gil07 :

That just about sums up the FXR imo.

Looks like this is the common oppinion as well. Np, makes it even sweeter to be able to beat you.

Quote from DeadWolfBones :

Ok, here's the deal:

These restrictions WILL be in effect for the Feb. 9 test race. All teams must attend if at all possible.

We will use the test race, on top of its already existing purpose, to test these restrictions for the IGTC field. After the test race we will consider the results and give you final word on the balancing within a week. Car model changes will be accepted after the final balancing is delivered.

"Sandbagging" during the test race will be closely scrutinized, so please don't try to mess around with the results. A balanced series is good for everyone.

Thanks.

I really hope this , for the first time in 2008, gets the FXR into the balancing discussion. It would only be fair.

Or isn´t there anything to add to this:

"The FXO GTR is a great car for somebody just getting used to the extra power offered by the GTR cars or for somebody who just wants to have some fun in the GTR class, but if you want wins and don't like long races you have to move to one of the rear-wheel drive GTR cars."

Found here:
http://www.lfs.net/?page=contents&car=fxo_gtr

I couldn´t agree more - a balanced series is good for everyone, like you already have stated.

Your site looks very nice and thanks a lot for the updated results.

We had hoped for a FXR=0kg - XRR=+10kg - FZR=+25kg solution but it doesn´t matter. We´ll just use the SC periods to catch up again..

We´ll be there as well.

Quote from MZWiZard :

EDIT: There is an other, secondary point with this poll. What do you think is most realistic, sim-wise: To warp your car into the pits, being brandnew? Or to drive into pit, getting damage fixed? Those are the two options atm.

That´s the point: Getting engine damage fixed is unfort. not an option anymore since Y.
In case of, I´d vote for option 2, of course. It´s cars, not Captain Kirk and Star Trek.

Quote from Polyracer :

I as a spectator to the event find all this most disheartening, I thought it odd when Mika said all but five teams had experienced some disconnection.
But then I thought that being penalised for one lap was fair under the circumstances...(snip)

Shift/p and Shift/s was penalized, but not the "normal" disconnect.

That´s why it now looks like that some teams prefered to use this "feature".

Congratulations to all teams.
