Good to know, thanks! Silly question perhaps but how do you get onto it from youtube?

Race department have their own YouTube channel just search for it and normally 24 hours before the event starts the put it up live ready and waiting

Is there parc ferme rules on qualifying? I'm asking this because I was in doubt when we were going from practice to qualy and didn't check if I could change the rest of the setup on warmup.

Best thing I can suggest is have a quick practice race weekend and make note of what you can still change from quali to warm up. Most of the major settings you can alter until you do your first run in quali, for example suspension settings are non changeable once you leave the garage. You can still change steering, brake balance and I think you can still change rear wing (but I should double check yourself) before the race.

We didnt had any parf ferme at all last race. I checked.

Nox · May 12, 2015

I don't set it to parc ferme, no, but some options are unavailable to change between quali and race by default so Andrew Harper is right; take a quick race weekend to see for yourself. We also have the club event on Friday which would be good for some recon.

Is there a way to have the starting lights show up on screen or some sort of HUD? I started far enough back last race that I couldn't see the lights so I just waited until other cars moved.

rfdynhud will show the lights on an overlay. I use it myself.
First you need to install java 6 included in the download.
Other files drag and drop in main GSC directory.
When everything is installed go to plugin folder and in one folder you find an editor to change the layout as you like.

You dont need a HUD. Just use the in car clock. Once the clock starts, the race starts.
Work just fine to me.

Yep as Angelo said you can use the ingame info boxes

When the time left counter appears the race has started.

Slalom823 · May 14, 2015

Sounds good, thanks guys! Or I suppose I could just qualify better. How hard could that be? I will just have to start in front of @Angelo dos Santos !

Angelo dos Santos · May 14, 2015

@Slalom823

Well, still we both start behind some Ristos and Netos around!

Angelo dos Santos · May 21, 2015

So...there is a official thread for the overall standings?

not an official 'thread' no, but they are along the side (once they are updated) in every VSCC thread, and you can visit the results page I link to. Having another thread seems redundant.

Is it a bug in my game or are there no meter boards at all at Cordoba?
I have no idea when to brake

I have an attachment to it because it was the track 2 years ago that I learnt to sim race on. I went from all assists, including auto-shift, to no assists, sim racing, in the course of 500 or so laps around the track. It was a tough path, but even now when I race there I am faster than all the other tracks (still slower than aliens, but yeah...).
