2015 RD Touring Car Championship (Stock Car Extreme)

[Lorenzo Bonder]

Wanna do commentary for both @R.J. O'Connell?

 

[Ole Marius Myrvold]

It's explained in the opening post @Eric Stranne

Nah, Boss. Not quite, will I get put ahead of Eric on the reserve list, because I am Norwegian and he is Swedish (and thus, I am, in every single way possible, superior)? Or will it be a random draw?

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

If you cannot make it you will automatically be placed on the bottom of the reserve list in order of sign-up for the RDTCC S9.

From the opening post. So those that signed up the earliest will be placed higher on the reserve list than drivers that joined last minute.

Ah! Well, maybe we Norwegians are equal to the Swedes in one thing, our ability to read!

Ok I have a question.

Are we aloud to use 3rd party apps such as XD??

yes, you are allowed to use XD. The most used are GID or rfDynhud.

 

[quicksilver384]

Brill thanks.

 

[Ken Rodriguez]

@Bram Unfortunately due to a shift at work, I will not be able to run this season at all. Please remove my name and allow another racer to slot into that position. Thank you.

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Oh that's too bad @Ken Rodriguez. Hopefully better luck in season 10 with the V8's

Thanks for the heads up

To any admin/organiser:

What if anything is being done about the gear ratio hack or as I call it "cheat to win technology". I read about in the club race thread

BTW, any news about getting rid of the possibility to use a hacked gearing change mod?

http://www.racedepartment.com/threa...ande-thursday-10-september-2015.110524/page-2

From what I have read it gives a clear 1.5 sec advantage over drivers without it and does not cause mismatches. Although the vast majority of RaceDepartment members race fair, there is always the posibility of some drivers doing anything to win.

@Dave Begley

Check Bram's note on the General Discussion. We are taking this seriously and we'll be thorough and cautious when evaluating the results.

think you spelt it wrong mate? 1 too many o's in that last word

 

[Paul Jeffrey]

thank you!

We have checked with both Franklin, who made the original post, our staff and Reiza but came to the conclusion such a hack doesn't exist, unless we have been looking in the wrong internet Such hacks will give a mismatch on the server anyways.

Going through the signed-up drivers list I only see honest names so let's make this a great fair and honest experience in the coming months.

We're looking forward to it

 

[Lars Hansen]

After seeing tonights race, and witnessing the horror that can ensue with lots of traffic, and a fair bit of difference in the lap-times, I'd like to make a suggestion.

Can we (us drivers, that is) come to a gentlemans agreement that if you know you probably belong in Division 2, you try to do your qualy in the first hour of the time-window, if at all possible?
Obviously nobody is going to enforce a hard and fast rule, and if real-life duties makes it impossible then so be it.
But it would spread the traffic out a bit.
The really fast guys would have less fear of being held up, and those of us with...*ahem*.....a little less pace would equally be able to run a lap without being run over.

Obviously just a suggestion, but I'm going to do my run in the first hour at least.
So, you know......Consider yourselves warned.
