Amalfi and Fujimi Kaido should be on the schedule. Razz

by **Ax4x Mikey J** Fri 3 May 2013 - 17:16

No, those tracks shouldn't be in FM4 Rolling Eyes

But they would fit right in on Horizon. Razz

I am expecting to test them Monday Night @ 8PM Pacific/11PM Eastern. Possibly Tuesday Night as well.

Schedule, Point Table and Lap Counts updated.

by Guest Sat 4 May 2013 - 14:04

Might host a practice run on a few of the tracks tonight if anyone fancies a go, Mikey you down?

by **Ax4x Mikey J** Sat 4 May 2013 - 17:26

I wish I could make it on tonight, but I have to catch up on work Neutral

Warspite, I remember back when we met, you lamenting too many FWD and underpowered races, and not enough high HP RWDs... I have a feeling that you'll love the build for this one.

Rule revision: Race 1 Grid for all rounds will be "Random" as to not have to set the field.

after doing some laps at le mans in the porsche i jumped in this
:drool:

that V8

by **Ax4x Mikey J** Tue 7 May 2013 - 1:32

Thanks mate. You're right, one of the best things about the car is the sound of that V8. Cool

by theboomeranga Tue 7 May 2013 - 2:48

without a doubt,
one of the only real cars that have balls in this game Wink

Lap count adjusted for overall time after testing. study

Rules update:

Brake Line OK
No TCS/ABS/STM

by **Ax4x Mikey J** Tue 14 May 2013 - 18:35

Sign In Rule:

Due to the very nature that the first 16 to sign in get to race, each driver MUST sign "in" for them self.

No "mass sign ins" permitted.

by PROD DTechR Tue 14 May 2013 - 21:13

Mikey,

My question is: What is the difference when I post "in" for my own entire group, that each one post "in", what is the difference? For my understanding I'm doing the same, confirming the assistance for the event...

by **Ax4x Mikey J** Wed 15 May 2013 - 0:11

It could force someone out of the race that may have otherwise posted in before someone you posted for. If it wasn't limited to the First 16 to sign In it would not be a concern.

by **LMR DarthMario** Wed 15 May 2013 - 0:20

teams posting IN for drivers who don't post IN for themselves, as Mikey stated, could also hold up the race meetings waiting for someone who won't bother to post, which majority of the time that I've seen, they won't show up anyways.

This has happened in TASCAR on a few occasions in the past two years i've been managing it.

by PROD DTechR Wed 15 May 2013 - 15:54

Well, in this case he need to close the registration to 16 drivers, not more of that. Doing this, I can understand if he have 16 spots available for the serie and on that way I can accept his petition, but I see there are 25 spots available for this event, and this mean that in the future there will be two lobbies because for example, if all the drivers registered post "in" what he would should be to do? Open two lobbies, that will be the right way.

by **Ax4x Mikey J** Wed 15 May 2013 - 18:35

I have that many registration spots because I know that all drivers registered will not all show up on race day. If I limited registration to 16, we'd be lucky to get 8 racers sometimes.

Auto is OK, as all that seems to do is slow you down. Manual with clutch is quickest, then manual without clutch, then trailing behind somewhere is Automatic.

by **Ax4x Mikey J** Sat 18 May 2013 - 21:03

I am contemplating a new rule, as this hadn't been an issue up to now:

If you miss the first race, rather than an automatic pole position, you go to the rear of the field.

I am not quite sure of how to place you at the rear, other than to have you proceed to "pit out" during the "10 second delay", then tag the rear after the field has passed. This seems the easiest and safest way to do this.

Any other thoughts/ideas? As always, your input is valuable.

by F4H Lotterer Sat 18 May 2013 - 21:09

end of the day they lost the score for 1 race so starting on pole is no real issue to me.
