    I miss multi-class racing. Dodging GT's.

    That is more fun indeed. But the Proto class always got smaller on signups and the GT's were more populair.
    We were left with just 2 or 3 Proto's in the end.

    In the first chicane it seems that the cuts are randomly assigned :(. Sometimes I drive on the curb and it doesn't give me the cut, other times I drive on the asphalt and I take the cut. Probably the circuit it’s not updated, is there an option in the server to reduce the cuts strictness?

    Yes, I can do that.
    I will set it to 20 for the race.
    To all drivers: If someone abuses the track limits during the race, please report it to me. That person will get a drive-through for the next event.

    - Abuse means cutting the track on a regular basis.
    - Cutting the track means going outside the white line with all 4 wheels.

    Drivers briefing


    1. This event will be broadcasted
    Broadcast team: EithaRacingTeam
    Broadcasters: Nassim, Lorenzo & Sameer
    Twitch broadcast link: https://www . twitch . tv / eitharacing (delete the spaces)
    Or go to the headlines on top of the homepage.

    2. 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:
    1. You run out of fuel in pit lane before reaching your pit stall.
    2. You sustain damage to your car as a result of another driver and cannot make it back to your pit stall. You must prove your qualifying session was wrecked by another driver and that you made an attempt to return to pit lane.

    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.

    3. Monza GP Conditions
    1) The race will start at 02:00 PM (in-game time of course)
    2) Time acceleration is normal. Fuel and Tires are set to normal.
    3) The race will 100% dry.
    4) Cut Track points are set to 40
    5) This race has 100% damage
    6) Pole Points: 1 / Fast Lap Points: 1

    4. Formation lap and rolling start.
    Right after leaving the last corner, we double file in qual order. When the pole-sitter crosses the start line, the race begins.

    5. The pole-sitter will do the formation lap approx. 120 km per hour.

    6. The server password will be changed on race day. You can find the password for the race server on the Monza event page.

    7. If you have to do a drive-through penalty, you have to do it
    at the end of the first racing lap.
    That means the first racing lap AFTER the formation lap.


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

    9. No-shows (keeping the entry list real)

    If a driver does not show without unregistering for that event or letting us know that he can't make it on the event forum, he will be removed from the series.
    If he is no longer interested in the series, it's fine like it is.
    If he forgot about the event, he can sign up for the series again.


    (You don't have to unregister for the whole series. You can unregister only for the event you can't do.)

    10. You can find the server by first typing sro

    11. Please use the same name in the rFactor 2 game as on our signup list or it won't match in our automated result processing.

    12. Last but not least ... SIMRACINGONLINE wishes you a great race!

    Sometimes I'm not even touching the apex and I get a penalty.. it might actually be a drive-thru galore for everyone. Scratching my head on this one John. Reminds me of Long Beach. What line is correct. Lol
     
  14. John vd Geest

    John vd Geest Administrator Staff Member Donator

    Yeah, that's why I set the cut-track value to 20. You will only get a penalty after 20 whole points. That should be enough to get through without a penalty.
    In fact, I will raise it to 40 points.

    Qualifying will be a Russian roulette, fortunately in Monza quali are not decisive

    Well, that sucked. Had two massive freezes when people left the server. Should have remembered to turn off the replays.
    Second one sent me into a spin and let Joe get by me after i'd built a comfortable gap.
    Then Joe and i had contact as i was passing him at the second chicane (sorry Joe, if that was on me, but from my cockpit it wasn't) and i took damage and had wonky steering. That ended my race at the first Lesmo next time around when the car just broke loose and put me into the wall with a dead engine.

    Oh well. Had a blast, racing Joe!

    Grats Matteo and Sanio. Good racing with Joe Brown as well. I had nothing for you guys. You guys had push to pass down the straights? Holy moly.

    None the less, it was fun.

    Thanks Johnny.
    I did the first 4 laps with safety-car mixture o_O, I saw other cars go away on the straight and I didn't understand why.
    @Sanio I think you closed the turn in lesmo 2 too early, I was at your side but my car didn't accelerate as your due to the safety-car mixture. Feel free to issue a claim if you think you was right.
    I think massive freezes are due to the Lemans aero package, we had the same issue in Maastricht. When we use Lemas aero package nobody should leavre the server

    Dam I never even thought of using Lemans aero. No wonder everyone was leaving me in the dust. Made last minute setup changes to try for more speed, lower wing down to 2, try and make it stable and made it way understeer. Horrible race for me. Fun battling with Rob though for a wile.
