-When exiting the pits, you must wait for the double white line to become a single white line before crossing onto the track (see below), this is to ensure you don't blindly come out into another competitor. (Please also say on discord when exiting pits.)
-In the final turn the track limits are defined by the painted white lines.

That is very well done!

I'm back for this round, wheel is 100%.....replaced.

Also question re: Pit exit, can those on a hot lap use the pit exit to widen the corner? (I assume no)

You're right, no. Otherwise you could hit someone exiting the pits.

I still don’t have points site access but am I still allowed to race?

Also cheers guys on the server last night for help with the tuning, especially obsc3ne for giving me a whole setup to tinker with.

I’ll have to use the web version of discord as I still can’t get the app to install for whatever reason.

Yes you can, jump in and have some fun. It might be easier to sort out any issue with the points site tonight when there is a few of us on discord. :)

Love this race, was a great race on sunday. Worlds toughest endurance race. It may not be as long as others but the track is savage on cars and drivers.

I should be able to make the race tonight but I'm not sure if I can make qualifying - but I don't think it makes a huge difference if I start from the back... or from the back. O_o :D :crazy:

It's a shame about the low turnout, but nevertheless I actually really enjoyed the race. Tried my best to maximise my 3 stop strategy due to a forced pit from a too-low engine cooling setting. In the end I didn't take tyres for my last stop, to just come out ahead of Seca, unfortunately couldn't make it last, was just losing too much time with the tyre wear, and ended up 5seconds behind Seca at the end.

Well done to Seca for winning. Unlucky for Alexis with the fuel mistake. Well done also to Fez for completing the podium.

See you guys again next time out at Nordschliefe, hopefully some more of the regulars return, it's gonna be a fun race.

So was I, until I binned . >_< Seca was slowly catching me though, so not sure I had the pace to beat him anyway.

I changed the setup for Qual and got a lot more turn in and dropped the time compared to my race setup, but the change made the rear quite twitchy. I thought I'd be fine for the race and decided to run with it, what a silly mistake that was!

Sebring has to be my most favorite track, behind Bathurst. Absolutely love the place!!
But sadly it's been a long time since I've had a win there. Was way back in the 5th month of 2014 when I won both races there using the Enduraces mod for rF1, and a close second (0.508) behind Matt back in 2015 with the WES mod.
