Damn, I'll need to remove the 3% restriction on fxo now lol

THX for the kind words guys, greatly appreciated!!

We had some racers who were slow a couples of months who are very fast now, never give up is the right racing spirit!
If there are no examples how are we going to get faster?
Next week the GT2 will be at Westhill International (WE1) and the TBO will go to the many times requested Fern Bay Gold (FE3).

This Week
Monday: dailycious tbo/FE3
Tuesday: dailycious gt2/WE1
Wednesday: dailycious tbo/FE3
Thursday: dailycious gt2/WE1

The first objective in racing is to finish our races, sadly too many racers give up at the first little problem, we've had many races last couples of weeks starting with 25+ cars on the grid and finishing with +/- 10 cars. I think it is too bad, first you don't learn much and second many valuable points are lost, on the good side this has allowed some slower drivers to climb the classifications much faster than they had expected....

This series has two objectives, first to provide us some longer races to train on an almost daily bases, and second to allow everyone (fast and slower) to participate to competitive races without inscriptions....We'll be re-evaluating the situation periodically and we will add or change some things on the way to keep improving.

Question: we are thinking about improving the strategy works, 40min races seems a bit short to really allow the tires to be exploited to their full potential (sadly LFS don't allow us to use used tires). So we are talking about increasing the race length to 1h with a pit window between minutes 15 and 50, what do you think? would that be an idea?

Good luck!

I suggest to remove mandatory tyre change fot GT2, it's ok to change them for TBO
Thx for you input IfastLT, Could be an idea, remove tires change for gt2 and keep the 40min, but we've made this series to simulate longer race and add more realism with out lap on cold tires (many racers in our community like endurance races), Personally I am not a fan of those pits where you say hello to the pit crew and go, that's why we are thinking about increasing race length.
That said 40min for TBO is more than enough, so maybe 1h race only for the GT2?
Oh, I understand, then for GT2 races should be 1h+, but then less people will race till end... I think 1h should be enuogh
TBO server is getting very busy, many new faces the last two weeks and it was nice to see their racing improving day by day, we even managed to have many super clean starts at FE3, I was impressed by many of you guys, good work!

Next week we go back to Aston tracks with AS2 for TBO and AS4R for GT2.

Next week's tracks:
Monday: dailycious tbo/AS2
Tuesday: dailycious gt2/AS4r
Wednesday: dailycious tbo/AS2
Thursday: dailycious gt2/AS4r

Don't forget you need at least a copper license to participate to dailycious, this is achieved by driving a certain lap time, you can find the licenses for each cars by typing !lcs on our servers.

Good Luck!
Some brilliant TBO racing at AS Club in the last day or so, been the best LFS'ing I've had for ages!
I agree 100%. You guys run a very nice server.
The only problem now is that it attracts so many various people, and sadly some of them are rather.. well The most of the people there are great, but then there also is these kamikaze T1 drivers that just ruins your race. But if you are fast enough to stay in the top you'll be rewarded by good racing

LOL mate, you're not easy to please:
Your first comment was great, but not enough racers...so we've added more racers...
Your second comment was still great, but too many aliens...so we've added more humans...
Your third comment is great as always, but now we have too many humans...so we will add more admins and try to cover more hours now...
Can't wait for the next improvement...

Our team is now 6 months old and we have not chosen the easy way with TBO and GT2 which are quite slow to start up (specially since we use restrictions), but I can insure you that we keep a close eye on our servers and we are consistently discussing the ways to improve...but sadly it is impossible to achieve perfection on a public server...remember the omelet story from my previous post!

THX for the feedback guys, it is music to our hears!

@Dailycious racers: could be very busy tonight, so make sure to be on time before the qual and don't forget that there will be only 32 cars at the start...Good luck!!
Just got back into LFS after a long break. Extremely disappointed with the server choices. Everything is demo content! With a GTR server on AS whatever. Pretty piss poor options. Then i found TBO at AS club. Awesome cars on an awesome track with some awesome racing! Would love to see some unused cars and tracks at some stage. But great server guys!
THX sil3ntwar!

Because of dailycious series we change the track every week...same on gt2 server.

Sorry, I'll agree on that
I'll stfu and do some racing instead
Great racing today guys, got stuck in the middle after poor qualifying, apologises for almost missing the whole quali. Would of been nice top 5 battle if i had started with better position. Thank you R2R guys for organising these MINT! events
Yeah was fun ... I made a beginner mistake when I changed my gear ratio just before the race, ended up with a hot clutch after 6 laps and I had to control temps all race with manual clutching, loosing a couples of tens in the process... Anyway Dinosaur was too good, grats to him!!
Thanks
I've made a little mistake with setup too. But not so big as you say.
I've made 5th gear longer than it should for drafting (especially XRT wich is faster on straight).
But I wasn't drafting anyone because I was in pace whole race
It was really fun but I'd like to go another event with longer track.
Some longer Aston or Kyoto National at least. I don't prefer Ky3 (don't know why really) but some WE or long As would be great.
It was a great week for TBO with the easy AS2 which we have bookmarked on everyone's request, we had a special feature in the first corner which seems to have prevented the classic T1 divebombs.
GT2 was a bit slow last week with AS4r, so next week TBO will get a hard track with SO6r and GT2 a popular one with KY2r.

Our compliments to most of you last week, we've seen a lot of great and fun racing, the ambiance was great and it makes you forget those inevitable bad races.....
Also we have seen many new faces, it was nice to meet you guys!

Next Week
Monday: dailycious tbo/SO6r
Tuesday: dailycious gt2/KY2r
Wednesday: dailycious tbo/SO6r
Thursday: dailycious gt2/KY2r

PS: To those we sadly had to ban this week, don't take it personal, we are just trying to keep the place clean for all of us. We believe that bans works only if the racer change after it, so most bans were short, if you decide to come back, remember to be friendly, clean and respectful, we are all friends, so be one of us or don't come......(to check your ban length, just login to our servers, a message will be displayed)
PS2: If you are a beginner (we all were at some point in time), plz try to train when the server is less busy to avoid crashing races and getting banned, the community is very friendly, if you need ask for help and I am sure someone if not many will help you with setups and advises...say hello in our forum, so that we know who you are and what you are trying to achieve... http://www.ready2rollteam.com/forum/portal.php
GT2 Ky2r ! Nice !
Yay, KY2r
SO6r... boooo!

EDIT: Can I put a request in for BL1R for the TBOs please.
We are trying to race as much tracks as possible (easy, hard, long...no racism :razz, when you race in RL, you don't do only the ones you like, the quality of a racer is to adapt and achieve the best result possible, even when he doesn't like the track.
We love LFS for its Sim character, so no compromises...

TBO/BL1R was week3 of the series...
if you want to check what tracks we have already done, go to this link and click on track calendar: http://www.ready2rollteam.com/r2rdailyrace/

We are thinking to call the Dailycious winners every 3 months and restart the series fresh, so that would mean (if it happens) that end November the first part of dailycious will end and restart in December (maybe with some changes), which will allow us to race the popular tracks again... so stay tuned!
Sorry guys, the flue got me and I am late announcing next week's calendar, this will be the last week for the first part of dailycious and the tbo and general classifications are not decided yet.
Nothing will stop maxnorris from taking first place in GT2...Congrats to him!

This week's tracks:
Monday: dailycious tbo/WE1
Tuesday: dailycious gt2/FE3
Wednesday: dailycious tbo/WE1
Thursday: dailycious gt2/FE3

There will be many changes for the second part (3 months) which will start next week, but that's a surprise, stay tuned...

Happy racing!
