    Welcome Welcome!!
    This season we will be running the Porsche 911 GT3 Cup 2017
    [​IMG]


    S18 Skin v2

    Additional Skin
    As always the Raceonoz servers will be up for practice and once teams have been sorted, convo's will be started.
    This season will run as per last season in most respects, including running multiple compounds and a full reverse grid for sprint rounds.

    For those new to our fine forum, please read the Code of Conduct and Racers Guide, both good reads and worth a second look if it's been a while.

    The plan will be to have the rooms open from 9pm AEDT and to start qualifying at 9.30pm, a bit later than normal, but daylight savings does mess things up for WA'ers. There will be 10-15 minutes of qualifying depending on the length of the track, and then into the race, usually around 45 minutes. We will be running 1 room again this season so tracks are again being considered that can cater for 30 drivers.

    There will be enough slots and rooms available for practice during the week. There will still be an individual and team championship as per previous seasons.

    We usually have a prize draw at the end of the season. Please go to the sponsorship section for more info.

    Compulsory pit stops and tire change for normal and enduro rounds only.

    STRACKER Server - http://rooz.simracer.me:50041/lapstat?currservers=ROOZ-ACserver05

    Points
    The points system will be managed by our masters of charts, and will be posted within the ladder section at the top of the website, and updated weekly. The points will be distributed as per position table included with championship ladder.

    This season will also see us using a bonus point system with Fastest Lap (FL) and Most Consistent (MC) for each room gaining an extra point. ie Win+MC+FL=Win +2 points for the round. MC will be as per simresults, with highest gross MC across both sprint races used for determining overall MC.

    There is a provision for a drop round this season. Every driver will have their worst performance dropped from their overall championship total.

    The sprint round this season will see a full qual and practise session for the first race, and a 10min qual only for race 2. The points will be distributed to each driver for both races to come up with placings for the entire round. REVERSE GRID RACE 2 - HALF POINTS! Where 2 drivers finish on the same points, the driver who finishes in a higher place over the 2 races will be given the higher placing. Where this is the same, the driver with the fastest lap over the 2 races will finish in the higher position for the round. FL and MC bonus points will be given to the driver(s) with the best result over the 2 races.

    Ballast System is not in effect this season.

    Have tried to stick with historical assignments where practical... May have to shuffle someone from Pagnian to IgnitiON depending on the actual turn out.

    Hello all, I've updated the first post with some of the track downloads, some are just off my dropbox as I find the link off RaceDept sometimes can be painfully slow... more will come as I download and pop onto my dropbox to share :thumbsup:

    Hi all,
    Since getting a better Internet connection I have started streaming all my game time on https://www.twitch.tv/bogor73
    This brings a question on what audio I stream.
    I use Shadowplay to broadcast to Twitch and this just streams default audio, this means when I am in Discord, anyone who talks in there will be heard on my stream.
    I am able to bypass this by using Virtual Audio Cable, however this creates a half second delay for my game sound when racing and is a bit off putting.
    My question is:
    If you are concerned that your voice in discord will be broadcast on my Twitch, please let me know and I'll just put up with the sound delay. However if there are no concerns, please be aware, everything you say will be broadcast and recorded to my channel.

    Bogor

    Oh! and don't forget to give me a follow :)

    I'm keen to be a part of the season, please sign me up. I may miss the occasional race, but am in all the same.

    @Bogor If you're going to record races/events, you should ask on the night if anyone there prefers to stay unheard. That way everyone knows their voices are public and if a person is too shy to speak up they can self censor.

    Also, in discord you can change the output device. I sometimes use loose fitting buds for chat, with speakers for the engine drone; it makes it easier to hear talk without muting the sound of revs too much.

    No issues at all with being recorded/streamed. With language used all care taken, no responsibility accepted :)
