Event rating and other statistics updated! A bit later than planned,but... Didn't wanted to do it before end of world... But now serious - top5 is standing in same positions for 4 weeks in row now! A total of 54 drivers have taken part in last 10 events and scored at least 1 point,which is by 5 less than after previous event.

Some other stats - RTFRi Winners club has no new members already since 14th august,when it was joined by 3id J.Holmes,since then only 2 drivers have won races - Joe has 3 wins (2 of them in row),Zeus - 7,in 2 streaks with 3 wins and now the current still alive streak of 4 wins. The previous race repeated the lowest count of finishers - 4 and it was the lowest count in last 29 races. It was also the 4th fastest race with an average speed just under 193km/h. This race had 5th biggest margin of victory with 29.65s. And as mentioned before - Zeus is now the new leader of most laps led charts - he has led 139 laps,which is 3 more than Reno Kööts has done.

RTFRi has been around for 2 years (ok,almost,as 1st race was in 4th january,2011),seeing a 4 months break due to my moving to other country,so it's time to look at some total stats:
A total of 242 drivers have taken part in this event - 146 of them (60%) have actually finished in at least one race. 70 drivers have made between best 5 in at least 1 race,19 have won a race,8 of them have at least 2 race wins,while 3 of them have 5 or more wins - Zeus (10),Reno Kööts (6) and Troy (5).
16 drivers have been fastest in qualifying,just 2 of them have 5 or more pole positions - Zeus (13) and Litro (6). 21 drivers have been able to set the fastest lap of the race,5 or more fastest laps have the same trio,who leads winners chart - Zeus (10),Reno Kööts and Troy (6 each).
30 drivers have led at least 1 lap in race,half of them have led at least 20 laps (average lap count in race),but 2 have reached over 100 led laps (mentioned already before).
Country stats - drivers have represented (according to LFSW) 39 different countrys,3 countrys have 20 or more drivers - Latvia (32),Finland (25) and UK (20) (UK count not including England and other parts). 10 countrys have at least 1 driver in Winners club,while 6 countrys have 2 wins. Most successful still is Latvia with 15 wins,but it's last win is in 29th september,2011 in 20th RTFRi. Bosnia and Herzegovina is 2nd with 10 wins while having just 1 driver,Estonia has 6 wins,all by Reno Kööts,while having a total of 10 drivers. Drivers from 10 countrys also have been able to score a pole position,chart also led by Latvia with 16 qualifying wins. 11 countrys have fastest lap of the race,13 fastest laps owned by Latvia.
Now about some race stats - 45 races have been completed,a total of 901 laps have been raced,that makes total distance of 3625.9 kilometers,which has been travelled with average speed of 149.6 km/h,making a total race time of 24 hours and 12 minutes. (making this as the longest 24h event ever! :tilt

Thanks to all participants,wishing you all merry christmas,happy new year and much racing success in racing in future. See you on track in 2013!

New year has come,but nothing new in this event - we just keep racing in various combinations! We ended 2012 with the fastest car of LFS,the challenge was too hard,so let's start 2013 with something much easier - XFG can be considered as one of the easiest cars of LFS,because it's front wheel drive,low powered and quite low on weight - anyone can handle it,but just the best can hit the perfect line every single lap. Track is very appropriate for this car - Aston Cup offers 4.2km of various turn combinations and a straight for some drafting overtaking possibilities.

The 3rd year of RTFRi started with an ended streak - Zeus' 4 win in row streak broke up with his own inactivity - he didn't even show up for the chance for 5th. Race wasn't very high attended,but racing for positions was quite intene,but we had a strong racer who was unchallenged in this event - the finn Yorap proved that he is master of this car class and took his 2nd RTFRi win - other win was in july last year with the other STD class car. One of Race Green Autosports freshest sign-ups Matiss held 2nd place for most of the race,taking his 6th top5 finish of RTFRi,another latvian driver Muc took the last podium step,repeating his best finish result with his 4th top5 finish. Dutch driver Storm finished RTFRi race for the 1st time of 2 starts,taking 4th in results,Invecs made it 2 of organizer team's drivers in top5 with his 12th top5.

Now we return to usual 2 weeks break as the holidays are over - after 2 weeks let's have some grip car racing,join us!
YoRap - first time seeing you drive that thing. I mean, it's not like you could actually see this Fin driving this kind of a car.

Too bad that Nilex didn't manage to get that pole position. Probably was trying to install TS3, so he didn't pay that much attention @ LFS

Well done on finishing le race ClubR buddies, stormy and YoRap the Fin =D
Event rating and other statistics updated! After some time without movement in rating top 5 positions,there are some changes - 1st is still Zeus,2nd is still Y.Laprevotte,but M.Kapal has climbed 1 position,he is now 3rd. Invecs has moved in top5 and he takes 4th now,Rony stays 5th. A total of 58 drivers have scored at least 1 point in past 10 events,4 more than after previous race.

Other stats - Yorap is now the 9th driver,who has managed to win more than 1 race and 5th,who has 3 or more pole positions,while it was his first fastest lap in his 3 race appearances. Also this race had the 10th biggest margin of victory and Yorap has climbed up to the 8th place in most laps led chart.

It's time to pack out one of the fastest cars and the one which is considered as the most difficult - 450hp power,600kg dryweight,a lot of downforce,big fat tyres and no driving aids - Formula V8 ist a beast you have to handle by yourself! 3.1km long ring in South City's Town environment is the track,but don't expect too much of sight-seeing as the environment will become a blurr when you unleash the power of this car.
Being careful and keeping the car of unforgiving walls will be the key to have a good handling car also in latter part of race,stay focused and stay off cars around you!

Statistics / Event rating and other statistics (will be updated later this week)

Since 14th august of last year we did not had a new winner,just repeated ones,today this streak has ended with Y.Laprevotte's performance - he took the pole position in qualifying in final minutes and led the race from green to chequered,it was his 7th top5 in 8 finished races. Allthough M.Kapal took Flip's challenge in qualifying to set a faster laptime,he had to settle again for 3rd (repeated best qualifying effort),but he managed to pass the challenger in race and finished as runner-up for his 10th top5 finish,3rd was the first time participant from Germany - Flip. Other top5 places were filled by 2 Race Green Autosports FO8 junkies Invecs and Rony - it was the 13th top5 for each. After failing in competition for better finishing position,Litrololololololo started the chase for fastest lap,scoring his 3rd one.

The usual 2 week break to return with lower speeds for some street tyre racing!
Event rating and other statistics updated! And we're back to status quo again,as top 5 of the rating stays in same order: Zeus,Y.Laprevotte,M.Kapal,Invecs,Rony,while Zeus' lead has decreased,all other gaps have increased.

Other stats - Y.Laprevotte has become the 20th member of RTFRi winners club and his country - Greenland - is the 11th winning country. Allthough this was already the 5th race with 100% finishing percentage from starters,this is decided to be the best one as it has the most drivers finished - 9,previous best 100% finishers race had 7 drivers. Another fancy fact - this race has the first repeated margin of victory,as also Troy had 6.44 seconds margin over Invecs in 26th RTFRi. I have added a new stat in lead lap stats sheet - average amount of leaders per race,currently it's 1.53,while the biggest amount is 4 in 24th RTFRi.

Until today,only europeans have celebrated success in this event,today the first win,first pole position and first fastest lap went to Australia! Driver from this country using nickname consisting only from letters "g" dominated the LX6 and took a clean sweep,putting himself to winners club as 21st member and it was also his 2nd top 5 finish in 3 attempts. Through out the race and position changes,Kars kept his 2nd place at finish and took his 13th top5,Invecs with a 3rd place finish extended his top5 streak to 6 and his total of top 5 to 14. Flip taking part in 2nd race in row,also finished in top 5 again,canadian driver Falcon from hosting team finished 5th,which is his 1st top 5 out of 3 tries.

2 weeks break,join after that for some grippier racing!
Event rating and other statistics updated! After last race,there are couple of changes in rating top5 - Zeus and Y.Laprevotte keeps the 1-2,3rd is now Invecs,pushing M.Kapal down to 4th,but 5th is now the latest Winners club entry gggggg,pushing the organizer out of top5.

Other noticable statistic facts - this race has become as the race with best finishing percentage - allthough the 100% can't be exceeded (this was the 6th race with perfect score),the amount of drivers starting/finishing is the biggest of 100% finish rate races. Also gggggg set the 9th biggest margin of victory.

It's a return to the very sprinty Fern Bay Cadet custom configuration - if last time we used the slow and quite heavy RB4,this time it's something faster in our tuesday evening menu - the big and powerful 490 HP XR GTR will make you think,that this is a very elevation rich karting circuit,as the track flows by fast with a laptime under 1 minute,55-56 seconds to be exact.
Staying off the green stuff and throttle control will be the key here,while uncautios braking could kill your front tyres even before finish of this short race.

This event saw a quite massive attendance of finnish Iron Club members,all 5 of them are first timers in RTFRi,but IRONicaly,with all their efforts,Germany gained it's first ever pole position,when Flip from Spirit Racing Team put the fastest lap in qualifying. Unfortunately for the german,he made a mistake in lap 4 of the race and gave up lead to J.Vähäkuopus,who dominated the rest of the race,winning it by half a minute over his teammate Makepro,setting also fastest lap of the race. J.Vähäkuopus is now the 22nd member of RTFRi Winners club,continuing the first time winners streak to 3 and it was 4th win for Finland. The rest of top5 was taken by Race Green Autosports drivers - Invecs finished 3rd,which is his 15th top5 finish,7th in row,Rony finished 4th (14th top5) and Falcon was 5th for the 2nd race in row.

After 2 weeks this event celebrates it's half century race,let's see if I will be able to think out something half special for this,but it should be a road tyre car race!
Event rating and other statistics updated! Leader of the rating still is Zeus,but there are some changes below - Invecs overtakes Y.Laprevotte to take 2nd,Rony climbs back in top5 taking 4th place,5th is still held by gggggg,M.Kapal is the drop-out in this week.

Invecs now has 2nd most finishes - a count of 25 (leader is the 100% attender Rony with 47 finishes). Last race had the 5th biggest margin of victory with 30.23 seconds. And with last race,the total lapcount of all races has stepped over 1000!
no race today?
It's just fortnights.

Let's celebrate the half century race with a little bit different fun! Well,it's still timed race where winner is the one who completes race distance first,so no changes there,but the track is the one,which is different - Fern Bay Yellow (since this configuration was not in the unnoficial configurations list,I took the liberty to name it Yellow) configuration introduces 3 new turns compared to original tracks,and few of the track turns aren't even paved. But that should not be a problem,as we will take the traction rich RB4 for this race,so even with road tyres these gravel 3 turns are easy to handle,as hybrid tyres isn't an option,concidering that track mostly is paved. Race will be started from original FE2R grid and join the track after the first right turn. And yes - there is one little jumpy surprise around the new loop turn part,go flat out when you see the ramps,if go too slow,you won't make the jump...
Setting up car correctly will be very important,as you need the car to be handling good in fast turns,but also soft/durable enough to handle 14 jumps through out the race.
