Sim Racers 4 Life - Flat 6 Porsche League - Round 1 - Road America

[gorgias1976]

Sim Racers 4 Life welcomes you to our 2017 autumn season.
In this league we will race the Flat6 Porsche. This car is ready for close battles, simple in its setup and easy to drive at the limit. Rear tire management can be an issue so finding the balance between aggressiveness and smoothness can be the key to the victory.
This first round will take place at Road America. This track is a great opening for the season. Having three fast sections will make overtakes a constant during the races. Rear wing setup can be a bit of an issue.

SR4L wishes you good luck for the season.

No Mandatory Pit Stop?

[mel1c]

From the autumn league announcement:
"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."

[sdancourt]

Also note mechanical failures are turned on for the modern league.

I think thats a good idea for people behaving themselves.

[gorgias1976]

Anyone knows what kind of mechanical failures are included?
Gearbox abuse? brakes overheated? Engine overheated? ...

[1959nikos]

Oh sorry I thought damage.

I think damage is good, fun race or not.

[gorgias1976]

In a quick test I simulated shifting down in a gear instead of shifting it up. Then the engine suddenly went into flames.

Well, first race of a new season with new rules. We'll do better next time.

[Christopher Snow]

Thank you, Gorgias and Paul for getting me fixed up. BTW, the "Package Not Available" error does seem to be related to track (and in my case, mod too--I thought Flat6 was simply a part of the Endurance mod), and I'm all squared away now...I think.
