Hello Everybody.
New Dimension Racing are proud to announce the launch of our Mini-FBM Series. This series was born after we needed a n00b-proof car for an AX track at the LFSBC S1 'Festival'. I picked the FBM and restricted it, thus the Mini-FBM was born.
Over the past few weeks and months we've been refining it, making some new AX tracks and deciding on the format of the rounds. But, finally, we are now ready to launch it to the LFS public.
The Car is the Mini-FBM, an FBM with a 37% intake restriction (set attached).
Calendar:
This is the calendar; events are on Saturdays starting at 1930 GMT.
November 15 - Aston Cadet Reversed - Sprint 19 laps, Feature 38 laps.
November 22 - Joe Ellis' Failring - Heats 4 laps, Minor Finals 15 laps, Major Final 35 laps
December 6 - Fern Bay Gold Reversed - Sprint 10 laps, Feature 20 laps
December 13 - Deko's Layout - Heats 4 laps, Minor Finals 15 laps, Major Final 35 laps
December 20 - South City Town Course (w/ new final corner- see "SO5_MiniFBM.lyt" attachment on this post) - Sprint 11 laps, Feature 22 laps.
Note that the layouts above are still WIPs, they're basically finished but will still just have some little tweaks applied to them.
Format of the Rounds
At the permanent race tracks, qualifying will be a 15 min open session. The Sprint Race is 35km in length, the Feature Race 70km. The Grid for the feature race is decided on reverse grid of the finish of the Sprint Race, but a random number of people are reversed.
At the AX layouts, we are mimicking the style of races sometimes seen at Rallycross events. Qualifying is a single lap hot lap - you have one lap to get as good a time as possible. People will then be separated into heats of 4. The Winners of the 4 heats go through automatically to the Main 'A' Final. Those placed 2nd and 3rd go through to the 'B' Final, and those placed last go to the 'C' Final. Remaining spots in the 'A' final are filled by the top people in the 'B' and if necessary 'C' finals. The 'A' final is the main point scoring race.
Entry Requirements:
We want our events to be as clean and stress-free as possible, so we've made some simple entry requirements to try and attain this:
1200 online miles (1931 km)
AND
50 CTRA SS points OR CTRA Bronze License OR Hotlap within 103% of WR with FBM
Deko has posted the rules, in there you'll find all his usual blitherings about various things. Most of it is common sense and common racing knowledge, but have a lil flick through to familiarise yourself with it
