Hi Markus,

Just to confirm, I only need to register once for the championship, not have to register every race, correct?

Hi Markus,

Yes, that's correct for championships! See you soon on the tracks! (maybe even in about 11 hours from now in the SURPRISE event, where no practice beforehand is necessary or even possible?)

 

[HF2000]

Yes, that's correct for championships! See you soon on the tracks! (maybe even in about 11 hours from now in the SURPRISE event, where no practice beforehand is necessary or even possible?)

Addition: this is correct for 'real' championships. However I also use it for single events because you can only use the sign up forms in championships which is very convenient as there is not need for signing up via the RD thread. In that case you have to register for every race.

 

[KFMaster]

Thanks Markus and Han. I believe I signed up for the Championship -- I see myself in the championship roster

 

[Twoddle]

Is the ambient and road temp supposed to be 15 degrees? that's lower than normal.

 

[abecede]

Well, it's 15°C in Melbourne today, so it's realistic, no?

 

[stigs2cousin]

Sounds legit

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT

Since round 3 will be a two-race event with the second race starting grid being reversed according to the race 1 result, I needed to create a little google sheet which tracks our points, since our server can't do that in a way that is really well adjusted.

So the current points can always be checked out here:

Formula Agile Standings - Google Drive

docs.google.com

In short, the points system looks like this:

Position	One Race event	Two races, race 1	Two races, race 2
1	25	10	15
2	18	7	11
3	15	6	9
4	12	5	7
5	10	4	6
6	8	3	5
7	6	2	4
8	4	1	3
9	2	0	2
10	1	0	1
Fastest lap bonus	1	0	1

(I'll add this link also to the initial post of the Formula Agile thread.

I made a track map with track boundaries for AlbertPark since I could not find one. For those who use MoTeC i2, let me know if you would like to have it.

 

[HF2000]

Quite good!!

 

[abecede]

I usually just update the map in Content Manager using
Content -> Tracks -> click track in list -> Update map.
Works very nicely tbh.

 

[stigs2cousin]

You're not completely in on the joke

 

[stigs2cousin]

If you want to see/work on your driving line, you need the track limits/boundaries.

Z1 has only the most obvious for download, so I have to "make them myself

 

[KFMaster]

What joke, I think I am missing something

Ah, cool, I hope this updates the track position map. Currently my track position map has wrong track length, so it is not showing the right location of the car on the track when I move my cursor. But I won't mess with it until after the race -- this MoTeC is kinda finicky until know better what I doing with it.

 

[stigs2cousin]

I´m afraid we´re crosstyping here with a mixup in different softwares

Markus told us about a function of Content Manager I didn´t know about

Dai is talking about Motec and my comment referes to Z1Analyzer.
