Please remember: Chatting is prohibited on the server during qualifying and race.

Qualifying
During qualifying all drivers will be able to complete as many laps as they wish. However, a team needs at least one timed lap to be allowed to start the race. During the qualifying practice session only one driver of any competing team shall be on server and on track at any time. Please notice the yellow blend line at pit lane exit and please do not cross it.

Race
The grid departs just before the final hairpin in two-by-two formation. The NGTRs may depart with the green lights, while the LRF class will be given a seperate signal. The field shall accelerate to 80kph (49mph). Overtaking is allowed with the Green-Flag-Message, that is given to each class seperately. Please be careful on the approach to the first braking zone, as no race has been won yet on the first lap.

The balance of performance for OEC V is done via minimum pit stop times. That means that the aggregate time you are standing in the pit box needs to be greater or equal the following times:

Important, the timing stops once you've moved. So if you accidentally move when it says "finished" and stop and wait again in the pits, it does not count. Keep that in mind!

Please remember, there are NO Safety Cars, NO restarts. Rejoins are allowed at anytime but result in the loss of one lap, including rejoins due to connection loss.

I hope you will have a fun race nonetheless.


The server is again kindly provided by New Dimension Racing. The live stream by SimBroadcasts is scheduled to start with the qualifying session.
The password will be sent to the teams on race day. Please check if your profile allows private messages, otherwise you will not get the information.

Uploaded the layout file into the opening post.

Also since I have heard reports and I see in airio that some drivers and teams tested other cars, please update your entry in the sign-up form when changing the car. Since it is the Open Endurance Cup, the "open" means that you are free to do so, but updating the form makes my life a little bit easier

Quote from HL_Nano :

Sorry about that, I was in a fight with my teammate and the anxiety was stronger. My fault 100%

In Argentina, when you receive a turn signal from the car in front, it means that you do not pass by that side. Sorry for my wrong interpretation.

No problem, though it'd be safer to have those battles when anything slower is behind. I can see the issue though, usually indicating would mean where i'd be heading with my car like in real life traffic but many reacted to my signaling as to where they should go like i intended and the brake lights lighting up shouldve been some indication that I was willing to give the inside lane
