    WELCOME TO THE FVR V8 SUPERCARS 2023 SERIES


    We will be running 6 events from the V8 Supercars 2023 season in order of the calendar with the exception of Round 1, which will be Phillip Island.
    Phillip Island is too good a track to leave out of this series and it is definitely a V8 Supercar track.

    We will be using the FVR V8 Supercars 2023 (LEAGUE EDITION) mod that is free to download on Steam.

    The series will take place on Sundays bi-weekly.
    First event: Sunday, January 14 2024
    Qual: 20:00 GMT = 15 minutes
    Race: 20:20 GMT = 60 minutes
    100% damage
    Tires = normal
    Fuel = normal
    No mandatory pitstop
    Car choice is free


    The V8 Supercars series will be broadcasted by Rob Milliken

    Formation lap & Standing start
    How does each race start?

    1. The race starts with a formation lap.
    2. At the end of the formation lap, you lock into your red square for a standing start.
    3. At the green light, the race starts.

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

    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).

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

    TeamSpeak

    TeamSpeak is one of the features of Sim Racing Online.
    If you would like to hook up with other drivers on Teamspeak before the race (or any time), here is the forum link for the SRO Teamspeak address and password:
    https://www.simracingonline.co.uk/threads/teamspeak-ip-address-password.19/

    For those who are not familiar with Teamspeak, you need to add the Sim Racing Online channel to your "bookmarks".

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

    Maximum number of drivers

    The maximum field for all 6 events = 30 drivers.

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

    You can find more detailed information about the race itself on the event page of each race.



    Please consider making a small monthly donation between € 2 to € 5,- to help us with the monthly server costs.
    Remember that Sim Racing Online is run by a private group of people, paying everything out of their own pockets.
    Thanks in advance !! :)

    It would be nice to have unique cars. As I will be broadcasting this (not SRO official), I like to replace in game teams with the SRO teams. This helps @Rob Milliken to also keep things up to date for the official SRO broadcast. This gets displayed in the starting grid and official results. This can only be done with custom skins if they are dropped in the appropriate folder and not the create virtual driver method. Help us make the broadcasted overlays look as cool as possible.

    If you are using a custom skin, please PM it to me in advance with your car choice so I can generate the thumbnails in advance.

    Please choose your skin by SATURDAY 13TH JANUARY PLEASE.

    I have created a guide to help you install custom skins if you will be using them.

    Here are the choices (League Edition Class):
    4 Chevy - @Toni Talvitie
    8 Chevy
    9 Chevy - @Jonas Lagesson
    14 Chevy - @Robert de Ceuninck
    18 Chevy - @Giuseppe Baldoni
    20 Chevy - @Simon Barnes
    23 Chevy
    31 Chevy - @Jason Whited
    34 Chevy - @Riccardo Gengotti
    35 Chevy - @Bonni Massimo
    88 Chevy - @Robin Taylor
    96 Chevy
    97 Chevy
    99 Chevy
    888 Chevy - @Nick Westy
    888 Chevy (Pre-season)- @John vd Geest
    2 Ford - @Johnny Gutierrez
    3 Ford - @Mark Hightree
