Yay another cruise server bitch thread to get out of hand! How absolutely fun this will be, I’m sure no one’s ever seen it before.

Quote from buck77 :

Man, no bumpdrafting will be very good! We can make great laptimes racing like this!

Yep great lap-times can be achieved if the person you draft with as well as your self know the correct patterns. Bumping means you can get insanely quick times, but there is no point in that IMO.

Quote from teedot :

no bumpdrafting allowed? pfft forget it then... that takes all the fun out of it.

Bumpdrafting takes the fun out of racing. At the end of the day the best of the best will win it.

Quote from buck77 :

do we already have dates for the races??

First race will be 12.4.2009 - and then every week after that we will have one race event (read .txt for this please)

That should be able to help you

Quote from pacesetter :

I was questioning it, and as long as your team mate knows what you're at, theres no problems is there?

No there is no problem if it’s your teammate. I suppose if the people that have signed up to join the league have enough skill to bump-draft then why not. Although I’m sure the league administrators won’t change their mind on this.

BTW sorry if I seemed a little arrogant towards your post.

Quote from pacesetter :

BTW, I'd like to bumpdraft with my team mates, would this be allowed? I think it should only be penalised should it be protested IMO

Quote :

bumpdrafting is permitted only in practise, in race it is prohibited and penalty will be a disqualification from race you are racing.

I think that should answer your question sufficiently.

I personally feel bump-drafting on the oval is quite boring. Unless you actually know how to do it properly you’re screwed. It’s seriously unfair on the other drivers who don’t know how to do it. That’s my personally opinion though.

That's a really nice post Good luck in the GTAL and in general

Okay thank you for posting that useful information. I’ll be joining then

(The Stig) Would there be any possibility you could reduce the size of your font in your signature, it’s far too big in my opinion. This is just my personal preference so you don't have to.

Please don’t turn this into one of those damn cruiser hating threads. Don’t you think there is enough of them on this board already?

Good luck Universal Cruisers

Haha, That's definatly a good one

How do they know that the knew cars will improve overtaking. I guarentee half of them haven't even drove an F1 car so how can they know?

Yeah i think the more experianced will benefit in some ways. Truli, Barichello and Fisichella have all have experiance on Slick Tyres during the 1996 season so it should be really good for them!

I'm really happy to see that Barichello has confirmed a drive for the 'Honda' team for next year

I apologize for the Mandatory Pitstop not being enforced. When we next run an event it will be enforced more thoroughly!

Nice one

Looking forward to racing with all

Quote from zeugnimod :

You probably would get more racers if you didn't hold this event on the same evening as the testrace for another TBO league.

Just an advice.



Also: No password on server? How is that supposed to work? You will get random people joining the server and either spamming the chat or joining mid-race (if it's enabled) during the race.

True we probablly would get more racers, we'll still run it this weekend and see how it goes Thanks for the heads up though.

We'll put a password on the server once everyone has joined.

Yes people can host you a free server for a night, but they need a time to put it up for?

Yay I .... Failed the entire session

Okay we have figured you need this:

---
Demo Server
Blackwood Grand Prix
30 Minute Qualifying Length
No Insim.
---

Now we need to know:
Time to put the server up at?
Race Length (e.g 50 laps)
Cars?

You need to post some more specific information. Such as:

How long the server should be up for, Slots, Server Name etc..
