Info

• There will be 1 test event before the Championship starts, points will not be counted for this event.
• Each race event will be 2 heats, with 10 laps each heat.
• Heat 1 Normal grid (random I think).
• Heat 2 reverse grid.
• It will auto load Heat 2 I have no control over that.
• Events should be no longer than 50 minutes for both heats.
• I will set the timeout to 2 minutes after the first person has crossed the line.
• Teams will be allowed. (It will be the case of picking another driver to make the team up and I will do the points after the race).
• Events will be once every 2 weeks and start at 8.30pm UK time.
• This will be open to all Licensed Members.

Info I need from people interested in signing up
Do you want to allow all assists, or just set ones, if so what ones?
Driving/braking line will be turned on as I use it.

How do you want to handle connection issues?
I am thinking allow 10 minutes for connection issues, so that is 1 hour in total, but I would like to hear your ideas. I will open the lobby 10 / 15 minutes before the event starts.

i was amaized at how much concentration it took to drive an oval. Also amaized at how i was 3 seconds off the pace on an oval!!! to be fair though i had done very little practice and hit the wall slightly in both races, but still

One kiss of the wall and you do enough aero damage to your car to drop your top speed several MPH and that equals seconds around the oval. Really wish Turn 10 would sort out their damage model when it comes to aero, it's not very realistic.
