Race Night Format:
8:00pm server rolls
8.55pm Drivers Briefing on TS (no cars on the track please)
9.00pm Race Start

3 x Races - Pits Open
Race 1 - 30 minute with pitstop - some format

All races have a 75% DNF threshold - no points if you don't get to that race percentage - repair your car, get your points and get seat time
Both races have cross the finish line bonuses - repair your car and/or finish for guaranteed points

Race rules as per the KSR Race Rule Thread - http://www.kiwisimracing.net.nz/forum/v ... 49&t=18354( Please make sure you have read these as ignorance is no excuse )

Crossing The Finish Line
When crossing the finish line, crashing your car is not acceptable and will not be tolerated any further.
Driver's are still racing and racing for position, crashing can cause frame hits for people and it is unfair to disrupt their racing.
Pull over off the track and Esc.. or drive back to the pits.. its just common courtesy.
Breaking this rule will result in points loss.

Race Settings:
Tyre Wear - Normal
Fuel Usage - Normal
Damage - 80%
Mechanical Failures - Normal
Driving View - Cockpit only
Flag Rules - Black Only
Driver Aids - Auto Clutch Only
Starts - Standing
Weight Handicaps - May be added if the race admin deems it necessary

We recommend a fresh install for our mods.
It is a drag and drop installation - Overwrite all when prompted.
Go delete fans_normal_1.wav from GameData\Sounds\Ambient

PLR Modifications

I installed over rF lite and get an error opening file A364.MAS and won't show KSRetro car in garage. Deleted, reinstalled, same problem. Anybody else have a problem?

Haven't used rF for many months, but managed to install TCL mod last month and worked OK, so haven't forgotten everything.

I had a similar prob, resolved by unzipping the files into the rFactor folder in one hit.

Really nice car to driver Hugh although I'm finding the FFB extremely light, even with RF turned right up.

I found the same. I've never liked Realfeel anyway so I used the Highest FFB setting in the upgrades menu and that was roughly where I like it.

Love how much movement the cockpit etc moves as well, feels like an old school car alright!

Is the setup options going to be fixed for the entire league or is that just for practising?

Having trouble downloading the mod. Tried 5 different times with and without a download manager and the most I've got to is 40% then the speed drops to zero and just sits there.
