Crossing The Finish Line.

League Starts 23rd January 2018.

There is a test server currently up with Sentul. Big thanks to inspire.net.nz and Riven.

That's awesome. Thanks Riven. I am looking forward to racing with you guys again. Had some good laughs in the caterham.

Awesome!! I've been trying out all the different cars and I equally suck in all of them! Looks like it'll be the Porsche or the Lambo for me, I struggle to get the Merc and the Bentley to corner at all and the others seem very twitchy to me.

Do you guys run with the default setup or do these cars require extensive tinkering to be competitive?

Unfortunately I will miss out on the first round due to a family trip.

Like most leagues most will evolve there setups as the season goes. I tend to do a lot of tinkering myself but I know others don't. What ever car I run I will share my setups.

Reserved Vehicle thread now up.
viewtopic.php?f=49&t=19006


I'll get the points site setup over the next few days for people to signup to both series.

I'm probably a dumbass but I've managed to create a team yet I cannot seem to register myself as a driver for the GT3 championship?

Nevermind, I think I have it now. It took a bit of fiddling but I've got it sorted. Anyone else wanting to join the Rookie team?

v1.2 was released of the Simtek GT3 mod today - I assume we are using this latest version? Theyve done some physics tweaks so I would re-test your cars before making a final decision!

The below settings are now confirmed for this league after last nights testing.

2X Fuel Usage
2X Tyre Wear

Does that mean that we'll see (forced) pit stops during the 20 minute races?

Nope it means everyone can run flatout the entire race.

Ah okay, I thought that using a 2X Multiplier increased fuel consumption? I must have misunderstood then! Do we need to do anything or is this a server-side setting?

The server was set to 3x on practise night so it has been reduced

Ah, I had missed that. Hence my confusion as to how going from 1x to 2x would help fuel consumption

Riven got me into this. Getting setup ready for the first race. Might even get in some practice so I don't make an ass of myself :P

A gentle reminder that everyone needs to sign up on the points site in addition to posting in the reserved car thread.

After you've made an account on the points site, click "Drivers" -> "Edit Data" -> "Seasons", then click the edit button on the seasons listed there. Please make sure your name is the exact same as it is in rFactor, and that your car number is correct.

If you need any help doing so feel free to post here.

Thanks.
