Until the last from race 1 goes on the flag drop. Good chance the field will be grouped on the last lap.Sorry for the overall description. Phil, what I could do with the PLP app is put a big timer in it that counts up from race start. Then you could tell people how many seconds they have to wait before they go. Near enough would be good enough i.e. if someone goes at 20 seconds +/- a couple of seconds on a quick eyeball of the timer, then that would be good enough.I would like to try that thanks Wally if its possible and others are keen to give it a gohttp://xgn.com.au/index.php?topic=758.msg31509#msg31509 Logged “You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time” Shameless_1 Sr. Member Posts: 326 Karma: 1 Re: Round 5: Thursday 3rd November - Silverstone 1967 « Reply #92 on: November 05, 2016, 08:40:48 PM » I think people at this point are confused enough between whether the race is a rolling start or a grid start.. if anything is to be implemented something automated would work smoother.The first race I entered it was made clear it was a rolling start, but 5-7 cars passed me before the 2nd corner while I was just keeping up with the car in front of me.. was quite frustrating.

I dont know if they weren't on teamspeak or just weren't listening to the numerous repeats that it was a rolling start. I think rolling starts are great if it is app controlled. But anything that has to have voice communication seems to cause a mess.
