Season 18 will be in the Ford Escort 1600.
Format
Two sprints per round: race 1 about 15 mins after qualifying, race 2 about 35 mins, with the starting order set by the order of race 1 fastest lap times. Race 2 is double points.
No tyre warmers. No compulsory pit stops.
Balancing the field
Each round from round 2, the top half of the field according to the championship points, will all get the same amount of restrictor, such as 20% decreasing restrictor will be applied from 100% down to 0 across the whole field (e.g. 100,95,90,85...0) according to the championship standings, to close up the field and give backrunners a better shot at being up the pointy end.

Points
30 down to 1.
1 point for pole position.
1 point for fastest lap in each race.
Race 2 is double points. Worst round is dropped.
Penalties
70 kg ballast is applied for the first race only of the next round for causing lap 1 grief (or 10 second post-race 1 penalty in the final round). 70 kg should equate roughly to a 5 to 10 second penalty over the whole of race 1.

Welcome back Rolz :)

I had further thoughts about the restrictor. Restricting the top half of the field the same amount is unfair on the middle pack runners, as they will be hit disproportionately hard by the restrictor and won't be able to escape the middle of the field. So I've changed it to be evenly decreasing restrictor, from 100% (which costs roughly 2 seconds per 1:40 lap) down to 0, across the whole field according to the standings.
This also keeps similarly paced drivers closer together, e.g. Phil might be on 90% and Joe might be on 85%, so they will still be close to each other performance wise. This helps boost backrunners forward in the field more evenly, and will make the season a test of race craft as well as outright speed.
We'll try this out in a practice race after the three car fun run.

Apologies for the noob question, but where do I get the mod tracks that the league uses? I'm not sure if the ones I have are up to date or not and may as well get the versions everyone's using.

Yep - where you see "OSRW pit mod" for some of the tracks, that's a mod that you drag into your track folder to add more pit boxes. Two of the tracks e.g. Bridgehampton, support more pit boxes than with a simple change which I do on the server.

Hello Gentlemen I would be interested in joining if a position is available and you guys are interested in having me

Hi Guys,
I'm going away at the start of August (not sure when, my wife will tell me though) so I'm not sure if/or I'll miss any races..
-
Id like to sign up if theres still a grid spot free
-
Hi Guys,

No worries KeRo - you're on the grid, so you can turn up whenever you can make it.
-
Sign me up :)
Thanks
-
Is there still any room an extra to sign up?
Cheers

Hi Fozzy, I'll check it out. It depends on the capacity of the tracks we've got lined up for the season.
-

I've signed you up Fozzy. One track in the season is limited to 30 spots, so for some rounds I may have to put some people on a reserve list. But for most rounds, we should be able to have everyone on the grid.
Just make sure you download, install and activate the latest XGN Pit Lane Penalty app from this thread (http://xgn.com.au/index.php?topic=758.0). See you next Tuesday.
-
.... See you next Tuesday....
I see what you did there. :P
Couldn't make next Tuesday but I will be there on the 15th :)

Definitely room tomorrow

I'll put you on the grid in place of KeRo for now, while he's away. Then we'll see if there's any dropouts etc. So see you next Tuesday.
-
Cool thanks guys, my work roster will only allow me to race fortnightly. I'm back home tomorrow and hope I can get everything set up for it

If you PM me your GUID, I can add you to the reserve list for Tuesday's, and you'll still get some races. Sometimes others can't make it; some tracks have more pit boxes.

Cheers Wally, will do tonight . . .
Thanks again

Hi, I'm new here but wishing to give it a go
I have 120 hours on AC and I was wondering if I could just 'rock up' to a race
And also what times are the races?

Hi Nic and welcome. Read this post http://xgn.com.au/index.php?topic=307.0 and follow the instructions. I'm away for the next two Tuesdays, but there's some fun runs that Phil.8 is organising (you'll find the threads).
You can also turn up to more casual Thursday night races (check the forum).
On Tuesdays, qualifying starts at 8:30pm Eastern, with the first race at 8:45.

So I guess it's ok if I just turn up on tues after following instructions?
Are there any mods required?
I'll try to make it on the 5th September as I can't race this Tuesday

You will need the PLP app, that's available here http://xgn.com.au/index.php?topic=758.0
There are some others that aren't required but are very helpful to have. e.g helicorsa

Hi Killa. Like Phil said, I'm a few days away yet. I'll see then if there's a spot, but you can always be at least on the reserve list. In the meantime, read this post http://xgn.com.au/index.php?topic=307.0 and PM me your GUID, which you'll find in your AC race.ini.
-
Ok, will do that. Thank you Phil/Wally

Hi killa, I've got you on the grid for tomorrow night. You should be good to go.
Because you're a late entry, I've given you an average 50% restrictor. Then the restrictor is set after that according to your standings in the points.

Welcome back wally ?

Hi Wally,
I'm new to this whole online league so please bear with me as I start to become more involved....
So here's my first question. ... You have provided a rar file that I need to download and install in preparation for your next race 19th Sept. Question, after downloading the rar file, what do I do with it???
-
As I sound, I'm not really sure what I'm doing so will need to ask another possibly obvious question...
How/where do I go to join both your league and particularly tomorrow nights race?
