Michael "Beef" Park Memorial Event
Hi LFSers!

In 18th September 2005 we lost one of top rally co-drivers - Michael Park. This tragic accident was shock for whole motorsport world. Michael, who was always optimistic and humorous, passed away being too young and way too suddenly.

To respect Michael "Beef" Park, we decided to organise memorial event. It will start at 18. September @ 18.00 UTC.

1. Start of the event
We will grid up and turn off the engines. Minute of silence begins. After that we will do lap of honor(slow speed, no passing etc)

2. Races
There will be about 3 races in total. 3 races of each track. Grid in the first race will be random, but in next 2 races it will be reversed.
1. 3 races at SO3R. We will use South City's main startpoint as start if there is more than 16 racers.
2. We will do some races at BL3 on Bump and Jump layout named Figuratively. Number of races depends on number of racers.
3. 3 races at modified Blackwood rallycross track.

3. Rules
Since this is a "fun" event, no other special rules. Just respect the Clean Racing Club rules, as you're always supposed to do while racing online.

Also there will be air restrictions for XRT(1%) and FXO(3%).

4. Server
Name: Michael Park in Memoriam
Password: Michael

We will use TBOs with special tribute skins made by Kirill.D, render by itsphilty
Michael "Beef" Park Tribute Skinpack Preview #1
Michael "Beef" Park Tribute Skinpack Preview #2

XRT - Michael "Beef" Park Tribute Skin
FXO - Michael "Beef" Park Tribute Skin
RB4 - Michael "Beef" Park Tribute Skin

Best wishes,
Karl
Maybe you should throw some rally stages.

Extra long layout with 1 start and finish point, with objects such as slalom, etc. Maybe also forcing to go offroad at some spots.
Some ideas:

Make several short races instead of 1 or 2 long ones.

Don't go for rally stages, the connection might be obvious, but LFS' environments are way too restrictive to make them any good or realistic.


Some suggestion for tracks:
  • Bump and Jump tracks in general
  • SO2R
  • FE2, or maybe some FE open config instead
  • SO3/R
  • KY1 (:duck
maybe some south city...
Thanks for the suggestions, I really appriciate your effort

Yann is right about rally stages, so there will be some Bump and Jump races and one race at South City. I will make timetable in this week.
Looking forward for this
