Newbie question

Hello! I am new to sim racing and I was looking over all the forums on this site, pretty amazing. However I do have a question. For a series race, how many people are in a lobby on say FM6? After qualifying, are the number of people who are racing reduced to one lobby for the race, or does everyone have a chance to race(in multiple lobbies)?

Hi and welcome to TORA! Glad you like it:) First before the race there is qualifying. You'll will get the chance to get your highest lap. After that the times will be sorted out and then you will be invited for a lobby with people who are as close with laptimes as the one you did. There will be mutiple lobby's each race, because there will be alot of people participating. Lobby A has faster laptimes then lobby E for example. I'm not exactly sure how many people there will be max in lobby's. It depends on some factors.

The FM6 lobby capacity is 24. If, say 40, show up for a race, then it will be split into two lobbies of 20. If the number is 53, it will be two lobbies of 18, and the bottom lobby will see 17.

I hope that clears things up.

Thanks! It does. So if there are points in a series, say I'm in race B, and there are 20 people are in race A, who had the faster qualifying speeds than race B participants. Does the winner of race B score 21st in points then?
