    I've been managing low 35s and 34s with a tow.
    Dj and some others are consistently in the 34s

    Looks like low 34's to high 33's is about right. Up for some laps tonight?

    Sorry fellas I'm going to have to pull out of this season. I don't think my shoulder injury is going to be able to handle a full race, hopefully there's someone that can take my place.

    That's a shame mate, I hope you recover well soon. Hope to see you back in action next season!

    @stucar17 you were looking for an empty spot to move @Telum up, yeah?

    OK guys and gal !

    Welcome to Round 1 at Monza. Please take 5 mins to read the following driver briefing.....I will try to make rounds 2-7 much shorter.....you know the drill.

    This is the first time we have run a 'true' open wheeler in our sunday league. The car is fast, grips like :):):):) to a blanket, and should give some great racing. We have tried to pick iconic F1 tracks that should let us use the draft and KERS. The biggest issue is that drivers MUST give room to those around them, and BE AWARE of braking zones and lines......more on that below.

    MAKE SURE YOU HAVE MADE A CHANGE TO YOUR CAR AND SAVED TO ALL TRACKS. THIS WILL GIVE YOU THE DEFAULT 80L FUEL FOR QUAL AND THE RACE. iF YOU DONT DO THIS YOU WILL RUN SHORT OF FUEL......

    PLEASE BE ON TIME.
    Race Rooms will opened by host at approx 7:30 Sydney time (tune room) for people to set up their pit strategy, with the room host to open the NON TUNE race room at about 8pm Sydney time. If you cant make it PLEASE let the host / captain know in the division thread or by sending a message on PSN.


    TRACK LIMITS : As per our rules and regs drivers must keep 2 wheels on the ripple strips or white lines at all times. We all make a mistake or 2, but if you are caught "continually and obviously" running outside the track limits to gain advantage you will be penalized by the stewards group. The penalties are pretty harsh here, and you will need to be careful at all three chicanes..... BE WARNED....IF YOU CONTINUALLY EXCEED TRACK LIMITS EXPECT A PENALTY.

    CONTACT : IS TO BE AVOIDED AT ALL TIMES. If you make contact with the car in front, and gain an advantage you MUST REDRESS and give the place back. Failure to do so could result in a penalty from the stewards group. Obviously, this is a higher chance at the chicanes. We have seen a few examples last season of contact to the rear of another car, pushing them off track. This is the classic redress situation. PLEASE REDRESS IF YOU DO THIS TO AVOID A PENALTY.

    PASSING : Is plenty of spots to set up a pass here. When a car pulls along side you are EXPECTED to give racing room. Contact in being aggressive trying to defend will be looked at, better to give room and continue the fight.

    TURN 1 LAP 1 : Don't need to be a rocket scientist to know that you can't win the race in the first corner, but you sure as hell can lose it for yourself and / or ruin another drivers races by either being too aggressive OR too defensive into T1. Stay in your lane till the grid shakes out by turns 3 and 4. Last time we raced here there were issues at turn 1, lap 1 with guys being too aggressive.........please get through there cleanly ! Use your brains here lads and give room to those around you. Back half of the grid need to brake a little earlier and not cause chaos with kamikazee passes into 1.

    COMPULSORY PITSTOP : All drivers must make a compulsory pitstop. Pit lane is open from LAP 1. All drivers will have to make sure their pit strat is sorted for each round, and make the decision of wanting to take the soft / hard or a mix of the 2 at their pitstop. We have found in the past that having multiple strategies can cause issues, so i would recommend you delete all except for the falcon one (even default). From my race run i found that i could run 2 sets of soft tires.....i would recommend you try a 15 lap stint to see how your tires last.

    FUEL : Will not be an issue...i finished with 20L at race end.

    PIT ENTRY / EXIT : Both are straightforward, however DO NOT swerve across the front of other cars on entry. Drivers should remain right on the exit of Parabolica (T10) for a clean entry into pit lane.
    On EXIT, drivers should be aware of fast drivers approaching. The exit line isnt that long, so you should have no issues on the run into turn 1. . Please stay as far right as possible into T1 if there is traffic approaching, once through the first corner then all should be good to resume racing.


    BLUE FLAGS : Please observe blue flags, and move out of the way of faster cars if you are being lapped. With the 2 classes there is slightly more chance of blue flags coming into play, so you should be aware of the leaders coming up on you, and move out of the way as soon as possible. Best to get off the race line, and with a small lift let them go, so you can continue the fight with those in your class. Failure to observe blue flags WILL result in a penalty

    STEWARDS GROUP AND RACE PROTESTS : This season we will again be using the stewards group for racing infringements and protests. The specific Stewards group thread will have all the info in it, regarding rules and regs, and the protest procedure. Please read it and understand how it works...we are still to link in the collated rules and regs.........You have until 12PM monday night to submit a protest, and 12PM Tuesday night for your evidence to be submitted (ie video).
    http://www.raceonoz.com/forums/index.php?threads/stewards-group-official-thread.2593/

    NOTE : We will be tweaking the penalties / penalty table a little this season, to give a little more wriggle room with how the penalties are handed out, and for the severity of the 'infringement'.

    SAVE YOUR REPLAY ! : Please remember to save your replay after the race. If you want to protest anything, we can only act on the info we have in front of us, failure to do so will not enable us to view things from your game perspective, and with some of the issues we have seen, this could have a massive influence on how the stewards group will view and rule on any incident.

    Hope you all have a great season guys,

    Re fuel not being a problem. Should we set fuel to zero for pit strategy? That way no fuel is added?
