I was wondering what time the race will kick off tonight........ with NSW now in Daylight Savings Time I'm guessing that the time will change for us?????

Good question.

Can anyone shed some light on the race start and basic format (ie qualy and top 10 shootout)
This will be my first rF league race

We might have to work out a time ourselves since Gizmo doesn't seem to making an appearance. What states are on DST now, Vic NSW and SA isn't it, with QLD being the odd one out?

It is meant to be "Round 2 Pukekhoe 3x20 laps Race 2 reverse grid. Race 3 grid done on points".

Of course the next question is, does rF support reverse grid starts, and what happens in race 3 which is on points, I guess that will have to be a rolling start with the first lap being a formation lap to get the correct starting order.

Shonky - an admin can rearrange the starting grid in rF so there is no problem there. Only issue would be working out the points for the race 3 start.

I'm not sure if I can make it tonight. I've done about 15 or 16 laps praccy a week ago and that's it - haven't played rF since.

Giz has organised the server, Acer has admin rights so he should be able to do any grid changes etc

*might* not make it tonight, will do my best... but by the sound of things we might not be racing anyways...

maybe someone else needs to take over running this series (sorry Giz), someone that has the time would be good

So are we racing or not and if so what is the password, I noticed there is an XGN AAL server in there but neither the password I got from XGN or "ARSE" is working???????

Not sure at this stage Tassie, a show of hands would be good, those who are going to race tonight please post so we can check on numbers to see whether its worth bothering.

I'm still interested in running.

KNAPPO · Post by **KNAPPO** » Wed Nov 01, 2006 1:42 pm

I will be there for sure

LoudHoward · Post by **LoudHoward** » Wed Nov 01, 2006 1:43 pm

I'm still in, Gizmo is too.

SE1Z · Post by **SE1Z** » Wed Nov 01, 2006 1:45 pm

I'll be racing if im home in time.
Pretty sure I will be, but just in case.....

dvestate · Post by **dvestate** » Wed Nov 01, 2006 2:27 pm

I'm there

I'm home tonight so if no one objects I might borrow the #67 car for the night and give it a go to boost numbers, the first race at least. Never raced online before so the reverse grid might not be a good idea but I'll see how I go. Please don't hurt me

Hmm.....interesting, fuel load of 21 laps ran out after 17 laps.....hmmmmmmm

Bah, had an electrical failure as the team rolled my car onto the grid - hopefully be fixed for race 2...
