I think 45.XX or lower will be good lap.

Best advice, slow in fast out. I found out I took way too much speed into the corners and I lost almost 2 seconds just because of that Optimize your lines and use a bit of trailbraking and a 45 is the outcome !

Best of luck

Your mum. :hide:

What is shoutout ?

And 19h00 UTC, it's 21h00 FR ?

I have another league race before this on Sunday which usually ends at around 19:10 so would it be ok if I joined right after that just to set 2 or 3 laps in quali?

Autocross qualifying is single hotlap, drivers called out one at a time. I'll get you in when you get in though.

Oh, maybe I should read the rules.

Thx.

Just noticed there is a difference between the two layouts. The online version and the one posted here are different from eachother. Which will be used for the event?

Would you say that taking the last two turns wider for speed is a better choice, or to hug them as close as possible and lose somesped?

The one with the slightly wider final hairpin exit will be used. I'll upload it to the layouts thread shortly.

44's will be possible qualifying times, race times for 45 laps on tyres probably 46-47???

Or is pitting aloud??

You may use the pitlane to reset your cars for repairs / tyres. If you do enter the pitlane, you must stay at or below 50 kph / 31 mph.

On qualifying, you get one timed lap to set the best time you can.

done a 45 finaly

Hiya...
Just noticed that this post of yours is more recent than the update time on the layout thread post with all the files. Not really sure which is the final layout...? (I've now seen at least three )

The shape of the course didn't change. The layout has been updated on the server, and should be correct if you download from the thread.

hmm interesting since I haven't been able to get on the track without the 25% intake restriction?

Maybe it's fixed but a couple of days ago when I was there, Matti was setting low 44s and then I used his set and was going way quicker too (And then bmxtwins ruined it by pointing out that the restriction was too low!) Then I tried 20, 25, in-between values, higher values, everything above 20% was fine.
(edit: the penny should have dropped for me when I realised the peak speed through the chicane was up by 3-4kph with his set for both him and me compared to my own set - too much to be just down to improved handling...)

Just FTR there's gonna be a superpole session according to the rules, not a timed quali

I always time out since the positions insim is integrated on the server. Great. I would really like to see it removed.
