    1990 season review

    Download baseline setup

    The default setup is understeery, so I've made a better baseline setup that you can download.

    BTCC 1990 Baseline WET setup

    ****************************************************************
    Disclaimer

    This is a non-DLC championship, which means that all content in this series is free to download.
    ****************************************************************

    Qual / Warm-up / Race
    Qual = 10 minutes
    Warm-up = 5 minutes
    Race = 45 minutes
    The race starts with a standing start.
    No mandatory pitstop

    Pole position = 1 point
    Fastest Lap = 1 point

    * We will use the real points system from the BTCC 1990 season


    ****************************************************************

    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.)

    ****************************************************************

    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).

    ****************************************************************

    Yeah that's a common problem. Why don't you do 3 bi-weekly?
