Sim Racers 4 Life - Eve F2 Season - Round 5 - Essington - Reports

Another option is the private qualify session.

You don't see anyone on the track at the same time as you. It's as if you are alone out there.

We have used this before when using multi class vehicles with different speeds.

You can still view the grid to check times etc.

I will put it on this weekend for you to try at spa. Especially with such a wide variety of cars and speeds to choose from.

I hate driving alone, and I find it interesting and challenging doing quali with others.

I think we all do... usually. This was the first time I've had a problem. 26 cars on a 2.5 mile track was just too crowded. Two groups would still keep you in traffic Nikos. It's not such a big deal that I am going to mount a campaign for change. I just thought I'd toss out the idea. If it gets traction then OK. If not then OK.

2 groups is an option, but private quali is not imho. But one problem is which group is driving first? The track is getting more rubbered and faster for the second group and that's not fair. Then one option is that Paul saves rubber after practice, uploads it to server before quali starts and then have it set to static, so rubber doesn't build up anymore. It also adds a lot more work to do. Who is going to divide us in groups and everyone has to get the information about which group they are in and which time they can enter track. If that is a realistic option is up to admin to decide.

But for this fun event private quali could be a good idea. The F3's are like (barely) moving obstacles here. I don't think it's such a good idea to use them together with the F1's tbh. Lapping them will be interesting :p Hopefully most of us use F1's.

If people are worried about busy qualifying (what I think it's the fun of it, otherwise we could pick the practice time sheet and it would mostly the same) we can have many alternatives.
-private qualy
-F1 style Qualy (Q1, Q2, Q3)
-Limit max laps per driver so people must use them wisely.
-Single lap attempt as in last decade F1

But anyway, I like it as it is now.

For today I think it'll be all F1s and BT20s..... and my Eve F2 (already practicing for next weekend).
