The complete rulebook now available under the given link in the opening post. If you find mistakes or have questions, please post them here.

Quote from Tiptoe :

One more question arises, that can't be answered by the lfs manual: The custom layout for Kyoto. Will this layout be available for download somewhere, to have a practice already?
It's still almost five months until then, but anyway...

You can download it here: https://www.lfs.net/forum/thread/73903-New-Open-Track-Configurations-%28Track-maps-and-layouts%29

It is also known as "K31". It is part of the attatchment in the opening post. Scrolling down a bit, you also find a trackmap. Since it is reversed, you need to be on KY3Y to load it properly.

GTR is used by LFS to group the cars. The GT1 and GT2 class use the same cars but with different added car restrictions.

For season two, there are a few changes.

The minimum number of drivers for a team is reduced to 1, the maximum number increased to 5. The class structure is changed to GT1 (FXR, FZR 20kg, XRR), GT2 (FXR 24%, FZR 21%, XRR 25%) and NGT (XFR, UFR 15kg).
The qualifying is a 9 day long session, where the fastest time for a team counts. Only teams with at least one scored laptime are allowed to participate. The deadline for changes is now 30minutes before the start of the race and the race is now started by a rolling start by the rules. The race distance is reduced to 3 hours.
Along the two cup clasifications for driver and teams overall, the class classification for teams willl also be released

The complete season two rules will soon be available on http://oec.ronaldg.net/regulations.php

Quote from Flame CZE :

I guess without a Type 40 that is impracticable. I changed the date to next Saturday instead.

Hello everyone,

let's risk a second season. The format will be modified (*cough* more mainstream *cough*) but details will be released soon. So lets first release the race dates in this second season.

6 Mar 2016 - 3 hours of Rockingham ISSC
3 Apr 2016 - 250 Miles of Blackwood Grand Prix reversed
1 May 2016 - 3 hours of South City Town Course reversed
29 May 2016 - 3 hours of Westhill International
26 Jun 2016 - 3 hours of Kyoto International reversed

All races will start at 17:00 UTC respectively 16:00 UTC. Qualifying will most likely see a week of open track from Saturday to Saturday prior to the race.

Quote from Flame CZE :

Thanks to the new 'input when window is inactive' feature, only in LFS can you now control up to 40 cars at once! 40 for the price of 1! And that's worth it!

I tried 9 and it was getting quite laggy at times, but it works

yey! offline multiplayer! Who needs Mario Kart when he can get this!

Well... your choice in a way: If you think you can go 3h all by your self, you can do so, but if not you better share your car.

Btw: we can call it official by now that the race will be with GT2 cars.

Round 4 of 6 :: January 30th, 2016

Track Layout: Kyoto Ring Oval reversed [KY1r]
Car(s) used: FZ 50 [FZ5]

Qualifying: 15 minutes
Race: 57 laps



Qualifying (18:00 UTC)

Traditionally oval races are dealt with a single-car qualifying. However NASCAR used an open format last season, so I think we can live with one for this race aswell: Each and every driver may drive as many laps as he/she likes within the 15 minute window. A driver use Shift-S/-P anytime he likes and as often as he wishes.


Race (18:20 UTC) for 6x points

The starting line-up for the rae is based on the results of the qualifying session. The race itself is started by a standing start on the regular starting line-up. There will be no safety car periodes or things like that, so be careful, a mistake probably ruins your race. Also, the race probably will be a bit shorter then the others, but still will give the regular amount of points.
