Title: Season 2 Formula Abarth: Season Info and Driver Sign Up
Post by: Wally on July 09, 2014, 12:10:47 AM

Race 2: Aug 5, Imola, 11 and 14 laps
Race 3: Aug 12, Mugello, 11 and 14 laps
Race 4: Aug 19, Monza, 11 and 13 laps
Race 5: Aug 26, Nurburgring GP, 10 and 13 laps

Start Times
All times are EASTERN standard time.

Practice: 7:30pm, 60 mins
Qualifying 1: 8:30pm, 20 mins
Race 1: 8:50pm, 20 mins (approx)
-- Server restart --
Qualifying 2: 9:10pm (approx), 10 mins

Finish: 9:45pm (approx)
 
Points
Individual driver points in each race are 24,23,22,21,20 etc. down to 1.
Team points are the accumulation of the individual team member's points. If a reserve stands in for an absent team member, they score points for the team.
Each driver's worst round is dropped, and the worst team round is also dropped.
Fastest lap bonus: 1 point awarded at the end of each race for the driver who sets the fastest lap time.
 
Rules
* Track Limits. The AC track cutting penalty system will not be used. You must keep at least one wheel within the track boundary, typically delimited by white lines. This won't be enforced. It is an honour system.
* Redress. If you gain position advantage over another driver by colliding with them such that their car leaves the track, or by cutting the track yourself, you are expected to redress your position as soon as safely possible. Gaining position by "reasonable" side-by-side contact is allowed, but rear collisions must be avoided. This won't be enforced. It is an honour system.
* Track Re-entry. You must always re-enter the track with extreme caution. Any collision on re-entry must be redressed.
* Assists. Driving assists like ABS and TC can be used only if available on the car. There is no forced driving view.
* Map and Mirrors. To assist in knowing where other cars are around you and on track (especially for leaving pits and re-entering the track after a spin), it is recommended to use the virtual mirror (F11) and turn on the track map which shows the nearby cars.
 
Server Details
The AC server is called www.xgn.com.au (http://www.xgn.com.au) RACE NIGHT
TeamSpeak is encouraged. The server is ts.xgn.com.au.

Driver Sign Up
Reply in this thread to sign up for the season. Numbers are limited to 24 (limited by pit boxes). Extra drivers go on the reserve list, to be called up into a race if a position becomes available.
If a driver doesn't show up on race night without notification, they get a * on the entry list. If they get two *'s, they will be demoted to the reserve list, so someone else can get a race.

You've been an active member who is committed and turned up for every race (I think).  I see no reason why you have to go reserve, unless you want to?

Of cause I would like to be in the main group Guybrush! I'm just lame and pedestrian pace and know there are faster guys wanting a descent run. I'll leave it up to Wally to decide what to do with me.

Please count me in! I should be repaired by then.

Dick, you should be in main group. We slower guys need to give the fast guys someone to beat otherwise how do they know they are fast :) ;)

You guys are tops. Yes I know I'm the bunny. if you can't pass me you're in trouble! :) one day!! you wait! you'll see.
As long as I keep out of most peoples way, (sideways glance at vipergod) i'm happy to race with you all. it's really only Darren Marsh who scares me.. and Phil.. but he is more creepy than scary..

Mr Wally.
Will you maybe delay the start of the season if drafting is not implemented? As the vibe seems to be these Abarth's will just be a long train line without it?

I think you were one of only a few that made all races season so thats enough to get you a grid spot for season 2 if you want it. No better way to improve then run more races and practice sessions and I think it will be a bit closer in these cars at most tracks.

Post by: Guybrush Threepwood on July 09, 2014, 03:58:55 PM
I think not having such a large difference (well, no difference) in straight-line pace between cars will help.  With the DTM v Group As I think half the problem was having too many cars in the same space going into the first and subsequent few corners, as the DTM's would bunch up to the Group As off the line.  So instead of having 2 or 3 cars battling into a corner there were 5 or 6.

Haha CramDick is slightly more appropriate I think. I'm happy with that! We should try and get some team practice in.. you know the basics..PIT maneuvers (ask glen how good I am), blocking, racing in reverse and so on

CramDick Racing it is!
 Can clearly tell our main rivals will be those slack-jawed Achilles Heel mob. When I say 'our' I mean 'your' Cramjet.. And when I say mob, I mean Marty. I have no beef with Guybrush.  ;)

Our main tactic will be for you to ram Marty, (cause I'll be too far back) and I'll then block Marty from getting back into the pack. Simple?
 No pressure Cramjet, but it's all riding on you! You must win at all cost!!!! CARRY ME!!

Now skins Cramers? Are you happy with my unorthodox skins? I'll get working on the team name logo. Would you like to see something more traditional? Are you keen to show off some skins of your own?

Seeing as it's an open wheeler it might be a chance to get nostalgic and try to replicate some F1 skins.  Or you could try to make it look like a giant penis.

without any of your, vast, previous customer knowledge, could you tell me if that would be a conflict of interest with KY? I'm already in the red with a few suspicious insurance claims falling through. I don't need a law suit.

Maybe we could have the other server as the Abarth at Imola of something? I'm sure the likes of Imola will be in the list of tracks for the season?
no pressure, just wondering out loud.

Good to see a few XGN names on the RSR leader board.
This is Australia only. Few names missing that should be there. I know guybrush is from another planet or something.

http://www.radiators-champ.com/RSRLiveTiming/index.php?page=rank&car=18&track=2&p=&nationality=Australia

I'm 41st, and being beaten by someone with a xbox controller. lol.. shut up.

What I don't get is people getting valid pro laps down with the same setup as me (no h-shifter). not that I'm nudging any WR.  ::)

through tears...  :'(
I would like to have a reserve pickup my place...  :'(

Due to other commitments and a couple of family 'things' happening, I can't make round one and may miss an odd night, so much better for a 'full timer' to enjoy this season.

I will be watching and if there are spaces on nights I can race, I will request a possie!

Bad luck flattop. I hope you can get to a few races. I  hope you got the ok from your teammate first.

And thanks Phil.

So if you ask Dick really nicely, he might do an MP4 team skin for you with Mopz's name on it.

It's a bit hard to read i'll change it's stroke to something darker.

Is it too cartoony? I seem to like messing with that font.. Unwittingly it is the same as CramDick racings.
prefer if I did it like the MP4-29 font?

There's a spot available in the main grid, if you can make every Tuesday. Do you want it, rather than a reserve?

So if I can join the FUN server but not the LEAGUE PRACTICE server is that because my details aren't on that server ie the GUID number?

Yep. Testing skins etc. In general, I'll make the practice server passworded, but open to anyone without having to book.


Do you want to sign up as a reserve?

Hi G0RGAK. I'll have some places tonight, if you're up for a race at Imola. PM me your GUID, in race.ini, pronto, because the sever will be up in an hour or two with a fixed entry list.
If you can get on TeamSpeak too, it will make life a lot easier to talk you through anything that comes up.

I know there is only one race left but I would still like to have a chance to race and be in the next season, Hopefully I'm not too slow for everyone.

What is classified as "slow" may I ask, is a 2.02:*** around the Nurburgring GP track even close to acceptable? That's the fastest I have been but that was on the first day with no car tuning only low fuel and soft slicks.

Hi Schimttez. Welcome to XGN. I'll see if there's any spots available for next Tuesday's race. At the moment, the grid's full, but I'll put you on the reserve list in case someone can't make it.

The next couple of Tuesday's, we'll be having a couple of fun/trial races which you should be able to come along to. Then we're starting season 3, which will be designed to promote close racing in a field of mixed Lotuses and BMWs for all. So keep your eye on the forum.

I might of been a lap down both races due to not being able to maintain any ability to drive when I had a chance to overtake or just close behind some one or you know there was a corner to navigate around, but I still had fun. I seemed to be on pace with the back runners so if I could maintain my composure I think there would be some good racing to be had.

It's good to hear you had fun. Your lap times will improve the more you race and the more experience you get. Next season we will have more "balancing" - i.e. the faster guys will get slower cars - which will close the field up and give some closer racing.
