LFSBC drivers shall color their car numbers yellow, NDRC drivers shall color their car numbers blue. You are to select no color (furthest right color button) for the rest of your name.

The Race will start via Standing Start.

The Safety Car will pull immediately into the pit lane at the race start.

The SC will travel at approximately 150 km/h (93 mph) throughout the course, only slowing for natural slow points. The SC will be an FXR for this round. Drivers should remember SC distance regulations: The leader must remain around 8 to 10 car lengths off the SC, and drivers must leave about 3 to 5 car lengths between their car and the car ahead. Incidents due to following too close may be deemed to be caused by neglect, and a harsher penalty issued.

During SC deployments, the SC Inlap indication will come when the SC is at the final split. At this point, it will begin to accelerate away, and the leader is expected to maintain SC pace, and is not to begin accelerating until it exits the final turn.

The track image indicating approximate Intermediate locations and turn numbers, as we reference them will be posted soon. Please use those in any protests you may make.

Please do not make protests in this tread, there will be a thread created for that after the race has been completed.

There may be a layout in place for this race. It will be posted soon if there will be one.

I accidentally copied this fail by Deko into the PM, so don't moan at me for being insane.

#6 - CSF
As stated before the last round, no. Oh and Joe, you can't blame Deko for you sending out the PM to someone who is banned from NDR events, can you?
Who what where? Yes, I failed, but I was more focused on trying to make the website actually up to date.

If he is properly banned, he should be banned from the server, so there's no problems

Can I just say that whether you're competing this round, can't make it, or have decided to bugger off, please do tell us here

In previous rounds many people just can't be bothered to tell us that they can't be bothered to race, which is stupid after being told to post here whether they are coming or not.

Thankyou to the people that do bother to tell us what they're doing :-P
as stated in the pm to michael, not attending this race, sorry.

but just wait, ill be there for the last race
My name is not michael.

Where should we put number plates?
Quote from Szymonek :Where should we put number plates?

Halfway through the spare wheel.

Do you mean what should we put on them?
Hmmm... Lame it was. I mean where I should put race number.
Oh lol, I see! Well,

Quote from NDR Sporting Code :b. For closed-roof cars (tintops), the car number shall be clearly marked on the
doors, and on the roof of the car, to be visible from facing the left side of the car.
c. For open cockpit cars (formula cars), the car number shall be placed on the nose
section, oriented so as to be viewed facing the car straight on; and the numbers
shall be on both rear wing endplates.
d. For open cockpit cars without wings (MRT), the numbers that would normally be
on the endplates shall be placed on the sidepods.

I dunno tbh. I was going to say it fell under d. but I don't think it does. It isn't a tintop (though that's probably the nearest definition), it ain't a formula car and d. doesn't work because 'open cockpit' means 'formula car' it seems. Admins?

Option D. I didn't think of this. fp

Put your number on the bonnet, and doors.
