RE: SR4L Official Autumn league announcement + Racing Calendar - gorgias1976 - 08-09-2017

SR4L Welcomes you to our 2017 Autumn Racing leagues. This time we will be racing two leagues simultaneously:
- The main Classic league where we will racing the Flat 12 Porsche 917
- The secondary Modern league where we will be racing the Flat 6 Porsche GT3

Rules:
Every event will consist of:
-120 minute practice session starting 17:35 British time
-30 minute qualifying session starting 19:25 British time
-7 minute warmup
-Race 1 - XX laps (aprox 30 minutes)
-7 minute warmup
-Race 2 - XX laps (aprox 30 minutes)

Race 2 for the Modern league grid will be set after Race 1 results.
Race 2 for the Classic league grid will be set after Race 1 results having the top 10 drivers reversed.

Both leagues will have a standing race start.
The Modern league will also have a formation lap (*)
(*) Except for Nordschleife

Pitstops:
Modern league pitstops during race will be optional.
Classic League will require 1 mandatory pitstop every race where all 4 tires will have to be changed.

Weather:
Weather will be fitted (withing posible) to match real weather forecast (no real time software, but server static setting) including temperature, clouds and winds.

I hope it's not too complicated.

Sorry Paul and Tim for the extra work of having different server configurations and point scoring.

If everything seems correct I will post it too at rFactor2 official forum.

RE: SR4L Official Autumn league announcement + Racing Calendar - gorgias1976 - 08-09-2017

Also please post all posible links you have from the cars and tracks (can't do it here at work).

RE: SR4L Official Autumn league announcement + Racing Calendar - bullwinkle - 08-09-2017

I think I can do it this way will see

P.S. about league, would be great to have mechanical failure allowed.
in this way most realistic changing gears on historical cars and no arcade shifting (with full trottle on).

RE: SR4L Official Autumn league announcement + Racing Calendar - gorgias1976 - 08-09-2017

Thanks Mauro for the links.
I think it will be difficult to add mechanical failures, at least not without a big debate.

Thanks all of you its looks like we have a great season coming up your work is much appreciated

I think we could try it for one of the seasons.

Perhaps have it on for the modern season and off for the classic, as classic cars breakdown more often Wink

As you like Paul, People should drive flappy paddles on the Flat 6 Porsche, that should prevent people from braking theair gearboxes. set it on the server for a try.

My main fear comes from posible random failures.

Is it just me or is the Road America 2016 version quite the frame rate killer? I cannot get rid of it even with lowest detail.

With respect, could you reconsider the 917 at classic belgium? I know it was voted for on the poll, but the 917 may be too fast for this narrow track, plus the haybales always end many guys' race early. Also, the track poll was not specific as to the cars to be used. Why don't we run the same Spa track used for the Flat 6? It is interesting to see how the 917 fares on a modern track.

We could make a poll on it, but I think most people voted it considering the classic Belgium for the 917.
The classic Belgium would be quite boring and bumpy for the Flat 6 considering its lower top speed and high grip, that's why I was considering racing modern versions of some tracks for the flat 6, more suitable to the characteristics of the car.

Too fast :o ?
The prospect of reaching vmax in a 917 and the challenge of masta makes this track one of the highlights of the classic league season for me.
Don't forget this configuration was used in the 1970 World Sportscar Championship and this car won the race.
