Title: Season 25 info and sign up
Post by: Wally on October 31, 2018, 07:46:57 AM
The next season will be based on the IMSA GT Championship of the 80's in the US (GTP cars) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IMSA_GT_Championship (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IMSA_GT_Championship).

(https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0a/Gtp_sports_cars.jpg/300px-Gtp_sports_cars.jpg)

Race Format
Races will be 1 hour in duration (+ 1 lap).
Some races will require 2 stops, others 1 stop, enforced by fuel multiplier (2.3x for 2 stops, 1.5x for 1 stop).
There is no pit window, and no restriction on what you can do in a stop. Tyre wear is normal at 1x.

Season Schedule
R1: Nov 13, SunBank 24 at Daytona Road Course (2 stops) [TRACK (https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/daytona-2017.14277)]
R2: Nov 20, Coca-Cola Classic 12 Hours of Sebring at Sebring (2 stops) [TRACK (https://actrackrebootproject.wixsite.com/ac-track-re-boot/sebring-international-raceway)]
R3: Nov 27, Atlanta Journal-Constitution Grand Prix at Road Atlanta 2017 (1 stop) [TRACK (http://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/road-atlanta-2017.18293)]
R4: Dec 4, Los Angeles Times/Ford Grand Prix at Riverside Long (2 stops) [TRACK (https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/riverside-international-raceway.9492)]
R5: Dec 11, Monterey Triple Crown at Laguna Seca (1 stop)
R6: Dec 18, Camel Continental at Watkins Glen (Boot Classic) (1 stop) [TRACK (https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/watkins-glen-international.20204)]
Dec 25 - Merry Christmas!
Jan 1 - Happy New Year!
R7: Jan 8, Ford California Grand Prix at Sonoma Raceway Long Circuit (1 stop) [TRACK (https://actrackrebootproject.wixsite.com/ac-track-re-boot/sonomaraceway2017)]
R8: Jan 15, Löwenbräu Classic at Road America (1 stop) [TRACK (https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/road-america.7095)]

The cars to choose from are the two Porsche 962 C Short and Long Tails, the Mercedes-Benz C9 1989 LM, and maybe the Mazda 787B. I still have to test the Mazda to see how it compares pace, fuel and tyre wise. I have added 50% restrictor to the Short Tail, for parity.

Points
28, 24, 20, 18, 16,15,14...1
1 bonus point for pole and 1 bonus point for fastest lap in each race.

Must complete 75% of the race laps to be classified a finisher and get any points.

Start Time
Qualifying starts at 8:45 pm Eastern Daylight Savings Time.

Other Bits
The usual ballast penalty (TBDkg) for the next round for causing an avoidable lap 1 incident such as rear-ending someone or moving across to the other side of the track in the first 2 corners.

Hmmm I just added the Mazda 787. Is that a mod car? Maybe the checksum files aren't on the server. If it's a mod, I won't include it.

Please put me at the end of the list Wally. I think I'll be able to pick my wheel up again - and the cars & tracks look really enticing :)

It's just Spa. I'll check the server at some stage soonish, but I'm a bit tied up for a while.

Title: Re: Quick season 25 intro and sign up
Post by: kcender87 on October 31, 2018, 08:14:42 PM
I think (barely) the 787 on the server may be the mod 787 not the kunos one - when both installed they look basically identical but the kunos one in the cars file is in the folder KS_not_a_rotor_not_a_motor
Title: Re: Quick season 25 intro and sign up
Post by: Wally on October 31, 2018, 09:23:46 PM
Server should be OK now (I just jumped on briefly). The problem was the OSRW extra pits mod on the server which may have caused checksum errors if you didn't have it.

I'm grateful for the auto entry even though I could only do every second round. I've just started at a new mine same 7/7 roster but start a day earlier, this means I'll only get 1 Tuesday a month now. Disappointing but I'd still like auto entry, I'll just be more of a reserve if grids are getting full. On the bright side I should be able to do 3 Thursdays a month. Thanks

I think the C9 is faster, but it has homicidal intentions. :o ;D

I've only chosen the Shorty because I can left foot brake and not blow the 'box up on downshifts, I didn't think it would be the quickest. :-X

Short tail here, too, I can't have any chance of keeping the others on the black stuff :)

It was a fun night, and the long tail is almost there for me, but it still bites, and overall I can't get the speed out of it.  It'd take heaps of praccy.

Don't know why I decided that, but now my version is back on the table as this version wasn't so shit hot after all.
Links etc in the appropriated forums some time in the future.
