    I will have a room up (unless someone else beats me to it again) tonight before the big race. Might see you guys on then.

    If anyone wants to run the Sunova Beach car #22 in Gen2 let me know and I'll share the livery.

    Can I suggest perhaps a 1 lap practice race right before we officially start tonight? Don't know about anyone else, but I haven't practiced a standing start here with 15 cars around me and big potential for incidents through the first couple of corners running side by side, T2 is sketchy enough going single file with the inside curb unsettling the car and no run off on the outside

    I'm very keen for something like this. I actually suggested it on Sunday night a few weeks back. A single lap around with everyone treating it like first lap. Gets the jitters out of the way, and everyone used to the start.

    Would people be willing to have a rolling start for this round only maybe to solve this issue maybe???

    Nope, standing start.

    Getting away from the start line is half of the fun of lap 1.

    Yeah, I'd prefer standing start. Maybe in the practice runs up before the proper race whoever is hosting can set up some quick 1 lap races...

    Yeah, standing start is fine (good even), but learning mid corner that I can perhaps not carry the same speed I've been practicing with as I inadvertently push someone out on the grass, etc, is not.

    Standing start every day unless we were to implement a manual rolling start like Jonos WET series. This coming from the bloke who got turned around lap 1 last round lol

    How is that any different to T1 at any other track?

    I think turn 1 here is not a problem if all are sensible, I am more worried about the turn 3-4 combination on the 1st lap.
    Could get ugly there with a few cars on different lines, if all are not sensible bordering on cautious.

    If I am host for the practice session tonight, about 30 mins before the official room opens via @THE_UNDER_STUDY I will run some 3 lap races which will help everyone hopefully be ready for those first couple of laps when everyone is tight.

    I should have a room up about 5.30-6pm AEST for practice - Will just be practice initially so people can sort out their strats etc, and then as mentioned, some low lap races.
