How many warnings will teams get before they get penalized for repeated cutting? Saw quite a few teams in that testrace tonight cutting T1 with all tires.
We´re sorry to tell you that we´ll not take part of the race (car #210). We had a last minute trouble and some of our drivers can´t participate... so we´re out... a real pity... feel free to use our place for another team...
we will have an admin looking at T1, if we see, that a team is permanently cutting that team will get a penalty. If you think there is a team that did not get a penalty but should have got one, you can send in a protest against that, we will have a look on that team again.
you may do what you want if you pressed SHIFT+P, but remember: there might be a protest filed in against you, if it seems, that you are winning time because of this
Few questions:
1. Are you going to warn about cutting or there will be penalty straight away and what kind of penalty? DT?
2. This shift+p rule if you can call it a rule is crazy, you should avoid that what happened on ALTERNATE 24 Hours of Aston GP, IMO you should make a clear statement about shift+p, penalty (for example +1 lap) or no penalty for shift+p. The second part of the question is how about timeouts? Are you going to penalize for that or not?
3. When are you going to send server password?
I think using MoE/IGTC/GTAL rules for timeouts would be good. I mean no penalty, only for intentional timeouts +1 lap. And +1 lap for every shift+p to avoid any unnecessary accusation about favoring one of the teams. Please consider this.
3.3.4 Blue Flags have to be respected immediately after the first showing.
The only refferense I found on this was this aswer.
I agree that blue flags should be respected, but is the driver in a slower car class expected to disappear from the track as soon as a car from a faster class approaches?
It's not that easy to give immediately way especially trough the turn complexes, driving LFS FWD cars... when you get only understeer while letting off the throttle. Not many lines to choose from.
You have to make a really slow corner entry in order to choose a line that doesn’t disturb a faster car through the corner. And this might be even more dangerous for the approaching car if that slowdown is not expected.
Especially between the GT2 and the NGT class there is not much high speed difference on the straights... but there is a huge difference in cornering speed… So lapping will happen mainly through the corners. This is going to be nerve wrecking
A more detailed opinion on that by the organizers would be nice.
It is my understanding that NGT's stick to their line. The lapping cars (GT1 and GT2) have to find a good place to pass them.
If you go slightly offline in UFR, you are going off in the next corner 50 metres down the track then on the grass causing no end of problems. Of course the NGT's should move over if possible, but I would think that it is the responsibility of the passing car to not even attempt it in the chicane's or corners.
