Discussion regarding round #2 of the Rallycross Shootout Series may be made here. Race is 40 laps around Fe6 in the RB4. Race takes the green flag on June 24, 2012 at 16:00 GMT.
It's possible as long as you don't try to run hot laps during the race. I would have done all 40 if I wouldn't have used .1% more fuel than I expected.
However, with that said, I will admit that the tires definitly would be streching it for everybody.
I am officially changing the duration of the race Sunday down to 35 laps. This is not a big change, however it will reduce the time in the race which the tires will be overheated.
Tomorrow's race should last around 19 min with the changed distance. Due to the shortness of the track I would like to take this oppertunity to remind all competitors to obey all blue flags. Lap traffic that holds up leaders will be penalized serverily post-race.
I will not outlaw contact, however divebombing and intentional contact will not be tolerated. Some minor incidental contact may be expected however.
Realistic NASCAR Server is running the track/car combo for practice. The password IS applied. The layout on the server is the layout which we will be using tomorrow.
Since my wheel is unuseable right now, I'll be using game pad. Hard to take care of my tires with my controller. I'll be in the pits a few times, for sure.
Yes, there are no pit stalls on FE6. This was the main reason that I decided to reduce the number of laps for today's race. I got rid of my tire issues today, so look out tomorrow if I can survive the start
This week midrace joining will be disabled following the first 1/4 of the race. This week this will be following lap 9.
The start was a product of the small track and the Motorcross style start. Frank was left out and I was giving pre-race instructions. Otherwise I would have moved. No actions taken.
