No broadcast for the last round.

Unfortunately, Rob Milliken has other stuff to take care of on Sunday, so he won't be able to broadcast.

 

Thanks Neil, all help is welcome. That would be great. Comment or no comment is up to you

 

Drivers briefing

1. Rob Milliken can't make it, so there will be no broadcast from him this last round.

2. Mexico 1988 Conditions
1) The race will start at 02:00 PM (in-game time of course).
2) Time acceleration = Normal. Fuel = normal / Tires = normal
3) Cut Track points are set to 6
4) 100% damage
5) Race weather = 100% Dry.
6) Qualification is set to "private". That means that you will be alone on track so you can put in your best time without traffic (point 3 qual rule still applies).
7) YOU HAVE TO USE THE SAME CAR THROUGHOUT THE SERIES THAT YOU CHOOSE FOR YOUR FIRST EVENT.

HOW WE START THE RACE

1. The pole sitter leads the Formation Lap at approximately 120 km/h.
2. The Formation Lap is done in single file.
3. When the Pole Sitter EXITS the last corner, the race STARTS. You can build up speed in the last corner.
4. You can not overtake anyone BEFORE you exit the last corner.

3. The use of the Esc. key in Qualification
Use of the Esc key during Qualifying is the equivalent of stopping your car and getting out. This may be done only in your pit stall. There are very few exceptions to this rule. Here are the only two we will currently consider. These exceptions are subject to change at any time:
- You run out of fuel in the pit lane before reaching your pit stall.

If you use the Esc key in any location other than your pit stall, your Qualifying session is over and you may not return to the track.

4. You can find the password for the race server on the Mexico event page.

5. Unregistering in time if you can't make it.

6. Please use the SAME NAME in the rFactor 2 game as on our SRO signup list or it won't match in our automated result processing.
You can change your name in the rFactor 2 "Profile" menu.

7. If you plan to PROTEST another driver, you have to wait 24 hours counting from the end of the race.
Any protest filed before that time will be viewed as not received. You can find the rules about submitting a protest here.

8. You can find the server by typing SRO or the track name. Add the server to your favorites so you can always find it.
If you can't find the server in the rFactor 2 server list, you can access this way:
1. click on this link: https://simracepackages.lima-city.de/rF2server/
2. scroll down to "SRO" (it's alphabetical)
3. choose the correct server and Join with the password (see point 4 above)
4. the server will start automatically and will take you to the event




Last but not least ... SIMRACINGONLINE wishes you a great race!
And always remember that your fellow SRO members have also put in a lot of time practising for this race,
so please be careful and respectful with your buddies.

Why don't you join us in the WEC series? You only have to buy 1 car and can download the rest for free.

 

The cars are half of it. The other half is the buzz that you get from an event. And this series will have all that.
We need some more GT3's in the field to top it up to 32 drivers. Rob will also broadcast. Let's go alien!!!

 

Thanks Nick!
I am sim-racing, but sim-racing is not me, so I'll be alright
