The 'BurnoutCrew' Tracker:
Will automaticly list all registered teams and racers for this event.

The 'BurnoutCrew' Lapcounter
This Tool is relevant for the final results at the end of this race. Two Lapcounters are tracking your race. One counts your driven laps ingame and displays the quantity you have reached and your current position (the LfS positions may be incorrect if you think of disconnects and surely mutiple grids) directly on your screen.
The second will be hosted on the DoP Eventpage for external views, so your teammates and other visitors could get a quick summary of this race event.

Disconnect / Re-joins
There're many reasons for disconnects and we don't whant to distroy a race of fun for you. So, reconnects will be allowed. Of course you're losing a lap in lap-counter. That's it.

After reconnect you have to act carefully with blue flags. Admins may punish you for ignoring a blue flag caused by a faster/leading team. Others may be ignored. Unfortunetly there is no way to prevent LfS programmaticly from showing the blue flags. So it's up to you, to fit the rules of racing...

The Appreciation
It is only a team competition. The total number of driven laps decides the final placements. This is determinded by the Lapcounter. If there are two, or more teams in the same lap after race end, the first finish decides for winning this event.

Penalties:
The Admins could judge immediately about penalties; for example: crossing the pitlane, unfair actions, permanent ignoring blue flag and so on. The penalty scale could be ‘Drive through’ or ‘Stop and go’ und must fit in the next following three laps!

Exlusion
The BurnoutCrew organizes this Event. We will decide about necessary adjustments if needed. There will be no privileged participation.

#5 - kiste
Just a typo i guess
Sorry, for this. Track ist Fern Bay Black
Hey guys,
Thanks for the organization. It was a nice event.

Maybe a bit early, but just a quick question for the 2nd round. Looking on LFS World, the WR on FE4 are FXO 2:50.48 and XRT 2:53.13. Seems like a significant difference.

Will there be any kind of restriction for the FXO cars ?

Thanks,
See you in 2014
Hi luchian,

the WR is not useful for race-performance as you have to take a look on tyre-wear and fuel-consumption as well to get an idea of the overall-performance during race. Unfortunatly these factors are depending on driver-skills as well.
I also think a high level driver in a FXO could perform better on FE4 as an equal driver in an XRT. A less talented driver in a FXO would have no luck at all racing against the XRT.

We haven't talked about restrictions yet, but I think, there will be none.
I see. In this case, a second question comes to mind
Should one desire so, could one change the car ? (if we used XRT in Round1, could we use FXO instead for Round2 ?)

Thanks.
Yes, that's ok.

One thing has to be kept in mind:
You get points for the 12h race and the 24h race. If you want your team gain points in both races you'll have to follow two rules:
1) Don't rename the team.
2) Don't change the car class.

- It is allowed to change drivers in the team. Even totally different drivers could be part of the second race and collect points for that team.
Quote from KlausAdam :Yes, that's ok.

Sry I am a little confused, (witch for me is a common thing), what is the points system, and will there be a table on the BC site or hear?
Sorry once again if iv missed the obvious and thanks for the continued hard work.
You haven't missed anything

The points system is not completely ready by now. As soon as we are little less confused about it, we'll set a table to our homepage and announce it here.
hate to hassle but will there be some practice races like the 12h, I learnt so much from them and were grate fun, thanks for the work

I bet there will be... Still over a month to go 'til the event takes place
Is there a server for this league that people are racing on? My team have a server for this league but not many serious drivers are coming on to race so it would be good to race with the people in this league thanks
1) We will have practice-races like last time. But I think we'll have still to wait some time. After xmas we'll start seriously planning and preparing for the 24h-event.

2) The official server for the training will be DoP - Grid 1. The server is online an you may use it, if you want. I've driven there the last days, but was mostly alone. I guess that will be better later in December and January.
cool cool BHA will start using grid 1 Monday nights for "unafichel" practice, hope theirs a few able to join
I think I take part of it on Monday too. I still have a lot of work to do to get some competitive laps on FE Black.

It seems to be offline
right now it worked:
DoP - Grid 1

but it is set to Blackwood. Will try to be on tomorrow, somewhen during EU evening
I fixed that.
Now the server is set into the wrong direction :o (i.e. FE4 instead of FE4r)
Holy shit! So I've trained wrong way the last days...

Now it should be better!
great thanks

Due to the longer laptime would you consider to reduce the at least driven laps to 75?
