Start Times
Practice: Track opens from 6:30pm Eastern Daylight Savings Time
Qualifying: 9:00pm (NOTE: now 10 minutes long)
Race 1: 9:10pm
10 mins warmup before races 2 and 3. The server will be restarted before races 2 and 3 to adjust ballast and grid.
Race 1 grid positions are set by qualifying; race 2 and 3 grid positions are set by the results of the previous race.
 
Weather
Some races will be in an unpredictable amount of rain, depending on the current weather conditions at the real track. Wet races will be preceded by an extended 15 minute warmup session, unless qualifying is on a wet track.
 
Ballast
Ballast is adjusted at the end of each race, according to the difference of each racers' fastest lap from the average, and carried into the next round.
Once a racer has completed 6 races, ballast changes are reduced to 70%.
 
Points
Points in each race of a 2 race round are 15,14,13,12,11,10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1
Points in each race of a 3 race round are 10,9.5,9,8.5 etc down to 1. Penalties are halved for 3 race rounds.
Each driver's worst round is dropped.
Ballast bonus: 0.5 point awarded at the end of each race for every whole 15 kg of ballast carried.
Fastest lap bonus: 1 point awarded at the end of each race for the driver who sets the fastest laptime.

Penalties
* For an avoidable collision (primarily from the rear) that causes a driver to lose position or leave the track, the punter will receive a 2 point penalty, and each unavoidably disadvantaged driver will receive a 2 point bonus. Redress is optional after an incident.
* A side to side shunt that forces a pass that was not reasonably there, or squeezing someone off the track, will receive a 1 point penalty (and 1 point bonus to the impacted driver).
* A collision that causes the impacted driver to have to return to the pits to resume the race will attract a 6 point penalty (and 6 point bonus to the impacted driver).

About the race dates... if there's any particular date that a bunch of people can't make due to holidays, let me know and we can schedule an extra break if needed.

[Bacchulum]

[Big.Jamo]

Yes PLZ.
Sign me up.

I've moved houses and my internet is...well, nowhere.   I'm on wireless, essentially.  Welcome to the telstra version of the 21st century, fuck me.
Anyway, put me on reserve, please.

Good luck with that.

[Bacchulum]

Shit news Bird. 
Same thing happened to my mate, moved house and no ADSL, no Cable, just wireless (4G at least).
He hasn't raced since.

[Dave O]

IN..   need a lot of practice though lol 

[JamieP]

Count me in.

[Mopz]

The worst part is that I'm working and I hate shitty slow unreliable crap internet.   Those who say wireless is a viable alternative to wired are total idiots IMHO.
Not 4G either, even the 3G isn't working so I guess there's no point trying for the even more expensive data.

I'm just hoping the ASLS1 order gets through at least...there are no ADSL2 ports at all.   And hopefully by next april (that's the latest prediction) I'll actually have what I came here for: NBN    It seems to me that (mayb due to the change of govt) all NBN constructions were put on hold for a good while.  They seem to have re-started now, at least.

For anyone who hasn't already got my skins, here's the Aleph Null skin pack (including the FTarget/F3):

Just extract to your root nKPro directory.

I hate the way Radiator Springs rename the tracks.
I THINK I have the same version but I don't actually HAVE a file with that name, so I'm never sure.
Downlaoding anyway, just to be sure.

[edit]
I'm having issues d/l Silverstone.
The site says it's 16.52MB but it's completing at 20bytes!
I'll try again later.
