The 'BurnoutCrew' Tracker:
Will automaticly list all registered teams and racers for this event.

The 'BurnoutCrew' Lapcounter
This Tool is relevant for the final results at the end of this race. Two Lapcounters are tracking your race. One counts your driven laps ingame and displays the quantity you have reached and your current position (the LfS positions may be incorrect if you think of disconnects and surely mutiple grids) directly on your screen. The second will be hosted on the DoP Eventpage for external views, so your teammates and other visitors could get a quick summary of this race event.

Disconnect / Re-joins
There're many reasons for disconnects and we don't whant to distroy a race of fun for you. So, reconnects will be allowed. Of course you're losing a lap in lap-counter. That's it.
After reconnect you have to act carefully with blue flags. Admins may punish you for ignoring a blue flag caused by a faster/leading team. Others may be ignored. Unfortunetly there is no way to prevent LfS programmaticly from showing the blue flags. So it's up to you, to fit the rules of racing...

The Appreciation
It is only a team competition. The total number of driven laps decides the final placements. This is determinded by the Lapcounter. If there are two, or more teams in the same lap after race end, the first finish decides for winning this event. Penalties: The Admins could judge immediately about penalties; for example: crossing the pitlane, unfair actions, permanent ignoring blue flag and so on. The penalty scale could be ‘Drive through’ or ‘Stop and go’ und must fit in the next following three laps!

Exlusion
The BurnoutCrew organizes this Event. We will decide about necessary adjustments if needed. There will be no privileged participation.

Keep Racing

Quote from Webflat :* max driver: 28 plus 4 Wildcards

Just wanted to point out that Westhill has 40 grid slots by default,not just 32 anymore. Probably won't matter anyway as there aren't that much active drivers anymore...
Thumbs up

Quote :. Unfortunetly there is no way to prevent LfS programmaticly from showing the blue flags.

There is now a command to set lapcount of drivers. So after a disconnect admins can give back the lost laps. It was used in same races, seemed to work good..much better than always wrong blue flags.
Quote from Eclipsed : ... anyway as there aren't that much active drivers anymore...

That's true, good old times. But we will see, hope and revival Smile

A few, well-meaning words:

BRIEFING

Remind our race last monday. The first corner isn't a battlefield. This is another simulation.
All teams and drivers have the same basic race conditions! The whole grid is very fast, even some are a bit quicker, so please be careful! We will have definitively no restart, no lag lap.

The procedure
Main Race: on Saturday, * Januar 21th, 2017
* CET 10.00: Server OPEN
* CET 11.00: 24h Race START
* race: 24 hours
* no lag lap and no restart
* yellow and blue flag are to attend
* tidy driving in the pitlane
* in general: one Admin is on the server

Only the start driver is allowed to join the server! [CET 10:30]
Be on track 30 min before start for preparing the installation!


Race facts:
You will not win in the first lap, even not in the first or second corner!
* Respect competition and slower drivers!
* Respect blue flag!
* Notice yellow flag!
* Careless overtaking endangers other teams, so drive clean and fair!
* For pit in and out notice the track layout, especially at the end of the pitlane.
* After the change leave the server immediately to give other teams a chance for a change, as you would like to have too.
* Prevent lag! Only for driver changes join the server as late as possible!

Admins will have focus on boxenstopps and procedure, too.
* For pit in and out notice the track layout, especially at the end of the pitlane.
* Otherwise a 'Drive-through-penalty' may be given!
