    F1 1950s GRAND PRIX SERIES

    This F1 1950s mod is part of the GT Revival mod from developer SSS_Garage, who you will know from the GT 1960 cars we raced with last year. That is basically a guarantee for excellent physics.
    The F1 1950 car pack within is called Richmond and Gordon Trophy.

    The tracks that are selected for this series are part of the 1950/60s period.

    The cars in this pack are:
    - Aston Martin DBR4
    - Connaught Type B
    - Cooper T43
    - Ferrari 246
    - Lancia D50
    - Lotus 16
    - Maserati 250F

    Variable.

    ****************************************************************
    No Esc. on track rule in Qualification

    In qualification, you can not press Escape (Esc.) while on track (if you crash) and then go back out again.
    If you want to do another run, you have to come into the pits first.

    This is to protect the other drivers from someone taking abnormal risks to set a good lap time and crashing (other cars).

    ****************************************************************
    How does each race start?

    Every event will have a standing start.

    ****************************************************************
    Points

    We will use the points scoring system from 1957:
    1st = 8 points
    2d = 6 points
    3d = 4 points
    4th = 3 points
    5th = 2 points
    Fastest Lap = 1 point

    ****************************************************************
    This series will be broadcast.

    Okay all, Maddie **might** have drug me out of sim racing retirement for this one

    I will register *if and when able to* however I am currently working 70 hours per week as an on the road truck driver (that's why I dissapeared a few yeasr ago) so I can't promise anything unless I get a new job I applied for that gets me home every day starting in feb/march, so pray for me so I can be there haha. and I WON'T be any good given how long I've been out of the saddle.
