The 3rd and final round of this short season was even less attended - just the late joiner rescued this round getting in history books as the new least attended round,putting it in those as repeated least attended. 3 drivers qualified and took place on grid while 4th driver missed the start,but used the chance to join as he is part of standings top10 drivers to pick up important points for standings.

Without much of competition,the series creator took over the charge in race for the win again,this time leading every single meter of the halved race distance to score his 3rd VERL race win. After repeating his best qualifying result,Lorenzo kept chasing the race leader in early part of the race,however could not keep up later and finished 16 seconds behind race winner as runner up,scoring his best VERL finish from the 4 seasons he participated in. LG-mies finished 3rd to score his 2nd podium finish in row,5th top5 finish in total.

Race statistics / RTFR .mpr folder / Event rating and other statistics (will be updated later this week)


The 369th RTFR was actually a first ever - for the first time this event series run a race in Fern Bay Rallycross track in reversed direction. Having a new car in RTFR is nothing new anymore since addition of car mods,this time it was the Prodigy AWD,a rather simple 4-door sedan without much power. And yet tyres were reaching temperatures higher than heat on the island of Jamaica,which had a very direct impact on results as some could not handle the heat. 23 drivers qualifying for the race is rather on the low end of latest attendance statistics,however it's still 3 more than highest ever attendance between all races in different Fern Bay rallycross tracks.

TimDC did not had any notable results in past in RTFR (in 12 qualifyings his best result was 10th position,from 2 finishes - 11th place finish),however with his rallycross background he jumped into foreground of this race for the battle of race win. He qualified 3rd (1 position better than previous best result for all belgian drivers),took main chaser's position when early leader lost pace and led his first ever RTFR lap right in the middle of the race. Even if he lost lead for 4 laps,eventually he regained top position and run away from competition in last 8 laps to finish with 10 seconds gap over competition to enter himself in RTFR Winners club as 84th driver,5th new one this year,scoring also 1st ever podium finish for Belgium. The 2 time RTFR XL polesitter Suforr scored his and also Spain's 1st one in normal RTFR as he was the only one to beat 1:22 laptime mark,but after leading 9 laps,he could not handle the tires and dropped down a position,barely saving his 2nd place to score his 10th top5 finish. One of the 5 new race winners of this year took the bottom step on the podium - Adam finished 0.3s behind 2nd position despite the trouble during the race,also scoring his 10th top5 finish. Michal escaped last turn incident to finish 4th,which is his 18th top5 finish,Thehemuli profited most from the last turn incident as he jumped 2 positions to finish 5th for 2nd race in row - with 23 top5 finishes he has most between all top5 finishers of the day. Another driver who needs to be mentioned is the one who led first 6 laps,but not for that even if these were his first lead laps in RTFR - Kyril snatched the fastest lap of the race on lap 5,which is also his 1st ever.

VOD at Youtube:


Next week server will be loaned out to RandomCar series - just one last round remains in the 3rd season of RC,which as always is the 1 hour long double points season finale,run in custom configuration in Blackwood,previously seen in the very first Zafiralis' ARC series race. In 2 weeks time normal RTFR will return with another all time 1st,running a tricky car on sprint track,more infos can be picked up if watching stream recording above. In 3 weeks RTFR XL will take place in custom racetrack,which is based on Hockenheimring,which will host the 1st return of anniversary car XRR.

Having the season just 3 rounds long means it's like snapping the fingers and we're already at season finale! It will be run in the longest and fastest racetrack of the season - in Kyoto's National configuration,where reversed direction means that oval part will be run in correct direction. Since the track consists of over 2 kilometers of full throttle oval section and under 3 kilometers of twisty infield section,it's quite important to find the correct balance between straight line speed and good handling in turns.

In theory new joiner to series could still take championship,however that would require the one to take all points from full distance race and current standings leader not even attending. So realistically only top4 can be still considered as realistic candidates in full distance race,if the race is halved once again,it's probably a duel between top2 of standings. Similar situation with different number of candidates is in both teams and nations standings,while rookie standings still needs to be activated with 2nd rookie finishing a race.

For those who missed,here's video on demand of today's action filled race:



I have 2 improvement suggestions for this mod:
1. After race there were complaints about hitbox as some had weird side by side contacts - it obviously is significantly wider than actual car.
2. The other suggestion is about number plate - seems like letters that go lower than most (qypg) get cut on lower side,so for example my "Rony" looks more like "Ronv".

Regarding skin template I have suggestion for future mods,not worth to change for this one - most of the car is kept in same scale and without stretching,which is good idea in my opinion,however there are few small front and rear parts that are bigger,I would suggest to avoid that. Also would be better to have some mask seperation between parts - in this case top part of trunk is very close to top part of rear bumper,which makes skinning a bit more difficult if these parts need to be in different colors.

What LFS has is actually a better revlimiter - pretty much a perfect one. Admin,you just want that ratatata because it's "cool" and not because it's better.

This car will make it's debut in RTFR in the dusty Fern Bay Rallycross circuit and drivers will make full use of it's AWD system,squeezing out of the engine all it's power - join to race or just follow the action via livestream,race info and links to livestream in the event's info thread: https://www.lfs.net/forum/thread/112638-369th-RTFR

Race statistics / RTFR XL .mpr folder / Event rating and other statistics (will be updated during the week)

* PENALTIES :
Hollander - receives 30 seconds penalty added to his finish time for pit exit line violation on 3 occasions.
S1DUS*uNite - receives 5.21 seconds penalty added to his finish time for minimum pit time violation.

After several custom or simply unpopular combos,this week's RTFR XL featured a combo which could be described as classic,even if this specific car hasn't been run on this track as much as GTR cars. The Formula V8 hasn't been very popular in this event,averaging 16.5 drivers per race which is the 3rd lowest value between 36 cars ever used,also this edition did not blew any records away,but with 24 drivers it was repeated highest attendance in races with FO8,while the 24 FO8 on grid - highest number ever in RTFR XL.

No changes in the winning front compared between this and previous race - Gábor used the combo he selected himself to put his name on top of the day's results once again. In qualifying he was more than half second faster than the best of the rest,scoring his 19th pole position,also in race he set the fastest lap by over half a second which is also his 19th and 23rd for Hungary,tying Lithuania for 2nd most. He crossed finish line 11 seconds ahead of the other driver with lead laps during the race to score his 19th RTFR XL race win and 30th top5 finish. Ohnifus qualified 5th,but progressed up to make this his best RTFR XL performance - he led his first 20 laps in the event series and finished 2nd to score his and also Czechia's best finishing result,improving both by a single position,which is his 5th top5 finish. After 3 5th place finishes in row,Thehemuli had a better race this time to finish 3rd,extending his top5 streak to 4 and total count to 11. Also the other czech driver in top5 scored his best finishing result in RTFR XL - in previous 8 races,M.Kapal was able to score 7th as best result,this week he improved that to 4th. 4 weeks after making his debut in RTFR XL,Cride jumped into top5 finishers list - the finn qualified 3rd,which is 3 positions better than last month,while his 5th place finish is 4 positions better.

* FUN FACT OF THE MONTH :
Finland in LFS has been quite dominant in both drivers count numbers and results. This time their drivers count of 5 was matched by Czech drivers (5 of them are 62.5% of all czech drivers ever raced in RTFR XL),while the results were better - 2nd and 4th place finishes against finnish 3rd and 5th.

* CLOCK PITTER OF THE RACE :
Only 2 drivers went for simple clock pitting strategy as all others opted for pitwork - both from same team,better one was organizer himself with 10.17s pitstop,beating the teammate by 0.06s. 2 drivers were able to do shorter pitstops - S.Martin was the better one with 10.05s,but he refuelled and changed tyres.

* FIELD RUSHER OF THE RACE :
S.Kapal's finishing result was his personal best,but his race progress - the best of the day between all drivers. Starting from low 22nd position,he improved a total of 18 positions during the race which is 10 more than 2nd biggest positions gain.

VOD at Youtube:


Race winner is already locked out of selections this year,so the combo selection has been relayed to 2nd place finisher,which is his 2nd selection already - this time he selected the car last used in the 100th anniversary race in a custom racetrack. The XRR will be run in layout which is based on design of german racetrack of Hockenheim - details about estimated distance will be announced after proper testing.

This season turned VERL into sprint racing series - interest racing a 500 horsepower single seater is low as for 2nd round in row only 7 drivers attended qualifying from which 6 started the race. From the first 6 drivers running the new car in Rockingham for the first time during a competition,just half managed to reach the finish by completing the required 2/3 of race distance.

For 2nd time in row race was won by previous vice-champion of series,however with absense of round 1 winner,this time it was Rony,who was the fastest in both sessions,scoring his 2nd VERL pole position and despite getting involved minor incidents during early phase of the race,he also crossed the finish line as race winner after leading 25 laps in his 50th VERL race. LG-mies is running in VERL for the 4th season and this is turning into his best one - the 2nd position in both sessions are his best results (previously 5th in qualifying and 4th in race),the finn already doubled the number of his top5 finishes in VERL. With different troubles,Madjester was the last driver to classify him in race results as finished,still in this low attended event that resulted in 3rd place finish,which means also he has doubled the amount of own top5 finishes during this season.


The winner of round 1 and first standings leader did not attend this round,so he was overtaken by 3 others - winner of the latest round took over standings lead and currently is 3 points ahead of Madjester,3rd in standings is LG-mies with 6 points gap. With too many variables possible for season finale,it's quite difficult to calculate any scenarions for championship securing - if attendance stays low,current leader needs to score one bonus point,then 2nd place finish already is enough,while 2nd place in standings need to take all possible points to take championship without any calculations. The other individual award is still inactive - still just a single rookie has finished a race,no other has even started one.

Also teams standings has a new leader - Race Green Autosports is now ahead of SGR by 3 points and sets sights towards it's 3rd championship. Defending champions Team S1dus slipped down to 3rd in points tie with Zafiralis. The 9-time champions Finland lost some of it's advantage and now leads standings by just 3 points over Latvia,Portugal slips down to 3rd with 6 points gap to leader.


Season finale of this short 3 round series will take place in 2 weeks in Kyoto National configuration,which just like in last season will be run in reversed direction. The championships deciding race is planned to have 39 laps,which in case of low attendace may be reduced to 20.

The middle round of this short season brings the shortest track of the season - however the 40 meters shorter track compared to the one in 1st round needs longer time to be circled around as the Rockingham ISSC Long has much lower average speed through out the course,but also has one fast section where drivers can hang into draft and go for simpler pass.

Signups list has filled a bit more compared to few days before season opener,so there is at least some chances of having a full race length for full points,however still not a single previous champion has submitted his wish to take another title in VERL. With only half points being awarded after 1st round,the championship is still wide open - anyone entering has still good chances if delivering good performance with some additional competition.

Race statistics / RTFR .mpr folder / Event rating and other statistics (will be updated later this week)


Between the races with previously unused user created cars and/or custom tracks,occasionally we host a race with well known LFS classics - GTR at Kyoto's National configuration deffinitelly counts to such,allthough this time we used solely the AWD car FXR. This one gathered up 27 drivers in qualifying while 26 of them were standing on grid ready for the race - both happen to be the highest values in the latest 4 races,however for the 3rd race in row there are 22 drivers classified in results as finishes.

As seen on livestream,top2 drivers did weird moves which raises questions about their interest of performing for race win,but still happened to keep their 1-2 order in both session results - with this race Lagooga scored his 11th race win,21st pole position (tying R.Kardol for 3rd most and scoring 50th for Lithuania),10th fastest lap of the race and 24th top5 finish. Gábor finished 2nd to score his 87th top5 finish,tying the event organizer for 3rd most. With top2 drivers pushing each other away from him,TJ had difficult time to challenge them,so the finish just 0.3s from race winner does not actually tell the story - the brazilian scored his 19th top5 finish with the 3rd position in results. Once again J.Katila did a low effort qualifying and had to climb positions with leaders running away - that resulted in 4th place finish for the finn which is his 29th top5 finish from 50 race starts. In this previous winners filled race,Thehemuli was the best of drivers without success - he finished in 5th to score his 22nd top5 finish.

VOD at Youtube:


Next week will bring the october race of the longer RTFR version XL,which will be 7th race with LFS own fastest aids free car FO8 - this time run in the shortest of fast Aston configurations National. On tuesday after next normal RTFR will return with track type not used for quite a while with car used in other RGE series - as always some hints about that can be heard on livestream recording.
