Quote from dekojester :

The rules have now been updated. There is no issue with the driver.

This decision to implement a rule has been taken due to abuse of the ability to jump around last year. It is hoped that the way the rule was written will allow legitimate team hopping, while deterring team hopping just to team hop.

A good update of the rules imo. You might have some objections since you didn't have this rule when the season started but I guess no other teams have use other drivers this season. We would be the first but the driver in question will only race for us this round and then run for his origin team. As far as I can see this rule is only for the better.

Thank you for clarifying this issue ...

I find our situation a bit strange. The admins are thinking of changing the rules now before Round 2 about drivers compete in different teams. Why on earth shouldn't a driver origin signed up for another team drive for us and then go back to the origin team? Or jump between teams if he so desire? Nothing is mentioned in the present rules about it despite we saw some real team hopping last season.

Last week I send a mail about a driver I wanted to use and have not got any answer. That driver made the qualy this Sunday. Maybe not the best thing since I haven't got any answer, but still there should not be any problem about it. No penalty is handed out for us.

Our confirmation have not been confirmed from the admins and we wonder why. For sure you are not going to implement a new rule this close for Round 2?? Or implement new rules in the midle of the season???

Is there any problems with our confirmation or the new driver added?

As far as fun racing, we may be slow but we are an older bunch who enjoy each others friendship and have a good time trying to race each other carefully.

Oh - you are an older bunch ... hmmm ... I dunno if this really is something for us youngsters in Team IRM then ...

I have to admit I really don't like the LX and FZ5. They demand skill and precision, that's why I hate them ...

Maybe a good idea would be to run those two as a Class 3, don't you think? (I say this in pure selfishness)

I visited your server and tested the FX1 and XR1 with your setups you provided. Felt totaly ok imo and I would love to test this in your practice race.
I assume it's ok to adjust things like brake bias, camber, tirepressure, gearings (as long as only use 4 gears), ABS on or off, ARB and such that isn't mentioned in your rules?

I really appreciate all your work for your rating system and looking forward to race these published races. Hopefully it's possible to test with many people during normal evenings as well.

EDIT: Just saw that if you drive Class 1 car you can choose between FX1, RB1, XR1 and FZ1. Is that right?

Quote from pik_d :

Lap 281 you mean.

Yes you are right, thank you ...
The post updated.

Our Lap #281 T1 (exeting the oval)
Cars #31 and #04
Our driver find himself at the side of the track when being alongside. Driver #04 didn't leave enough room.

EDIT: Actually our drivers have past the #04, then he hit us from behind punting us off the track.

So good I asked since I now had to do a little google research ...
Thx to deko I realize that GMT not follow what the clocks shows in UK all year and that UTC almost (can differ up to one second) is the same as GMT. Takes some time to use the UTC name, it was decided only 38 years ago, so GMT is still in use ...

BUT ... the reason I asked was that my clock now shows race start one hour later the the last 6 hour race and I would prefer if it wasn't. But it's now clear and I have to live with it ...

You have set the start time to 14.00 UTC (which means 15.00 GMT and 16.00 CEST) for these last 6 hour race. Summer time use to screw up most times so I got to ask ....
Is that what you intend to use as start time?
