My point was not the difficulty of driving. Of course a driver must have the necessary qualities if he wants to compete in such a race. What worries me is a development this series might go through - namely becoming senslesly restrictive - like most of the series in both rl and vr. Now Thilo after reading this i can imagine you thinking "if u dont like it, then fv<k off". Well, I am worried because this series does mean something to me. To be more precisious: it is the best i know (im talking about the open wheelers). Yet you will find that talking about overrestricted is exaggerated by far. Well better too early than too late.

uhm, if this r2 thingy makes it more dificult and more challaging whats the whole deal then? All those nonsense about to dificult etc. maby you should look for the problem at yourself first cuss i dont see 80% of the field complaning. IMO it brings something extra where you got to be aware of and in the end everybody has the same problem / challange so please just stop these comments and just make sure your one of the guys who doesnt have problem with the r2's in the race

i have to agree with u totaly rudy...
i understand the worries of people, that more people will crash with those r2's.
but just qualify better than those people and u should be fine.
also it is less dangerous after a sc periods.

world record is 1:05.90 by Darkone. I definately predict race pace times under 1:07 by Rudy, as the 1:07.01 World Record on the reverse configuration is set by rudy.
If the world record would be a pole position lap, the 107% mark is at 1:10.51. So everyone driving this time or faster will definately be part of the grid!

And I predict a pole time around 1:06.50

Oka I`ve just gone through some old replays from 190 lapper events we did with R2s.
So here is how it goes for 1 of the events, 17 cars starting, 5 cars actually finished the race.

Of the 17 drivers, 15 of them were highly experienced drivers on the oval, yet so very few finished the race, 1,2,3 and 4th was on the same lap.
This race was with safecar sessions aswell..(dekojester as admin)

Gonna be bloddy hell on track for those 32 brave drivers attemping KY 500 this year!!
Gonna be bloddy brilliant for the spectators!!

Watch those two links, you'll find a NDR oval event using only R2s.

this is one Event of NDR, and it took out 6 of 15... and noone complained, except the ones watched that one on the stream, with my crappy commentary and the boredom on track.. as far as i remember

Additionally, all drivers will be trained with those R2s cause all drivers have to do two practice sessions at least (preferably more) and I think, 'cause they start quiet early, if it becomes a real danger then we'll change it also...

Get out of our thread then!

Because of the big big delay of the round 1 broadcast, I decided to release the pre-release version (wich is also the pre-commentary version)

but the commentated version will hopefully come soon:

I must appologize TFalke and the others , you are been right for the r2 tyres, they will last more than I think , , unbelivable , but it is true.

wait till u have wind and u are in a 3car draft....
they will go up to at least 145° so it will be difficult.
but yeah, let's just see how things are going today evening.

Did a little practice and my PB is 1:07,9 on quali set, exactly 2s behind WR. So midfield for me. Tyres shouldn't be a issue here, R2 could last 4 hotlaps so i guess R3 won't heat that much.

1.06 is easy possible, once my current pb is 07.03. IMO Top10 will fit to 1.06.7 - 1.07.6

hum, i think ill need a SS for that track because my best time on this track is like 1:13.00

Sounds about right - OWRL went to Town last season and pole was 6.46

Race pace was a little misleading as the podium finishers all did 62 laps with no stop. Fastest lap was 7.3 so a shorter race should give slightly quicker times.

This track is going to be fun, I think I fanally got down to a 1:10:01 just gotta learn the damn line
