    Rnd 6 of the season will be next Monday December 15th for the 3rd Sprint cup round, with 1 60 minute sprint race, in the same format as the real Blancpain Sprint rounds. Just a bit shorter then the real rounds which are 2 races each.

    This will have a 10 minute mid race pit window, with a mandatory stop to change tyres. there will be a 10 minute qualifying session prior to the races. Fuel is not allowed to be added during the race, dont be stingy with the free fuel as all you can do is fuel save or DNF if you dont start with enough.


    RACE/PRACTICE SERVERS PASSWORD "Season1"
    Hotlap server password is "hotlap"

    entry is also locked to only those on the season entry thread. All that started any rnd will be locked to the car they chose for the rest of the season.


    Time scale will be 1x as the real round is also 1hr races, session times will be as below.
    • Free Practice 45 minutes: 8:30pm AEDT (in game Friday 2pm)
    • Qualifying 1, 10 minutes: 9:15pm AEDT (in game Saturday 10am)
    • Race 1, 30 minutes: 9:30pm AEDT (in game Sunday 2pm)
    A reminder for all to ensure they have set a lap in the Qualifying Server and anyone not yet entered to enter in this entry thread

    Please note whatever car you start your first official season race in you will be committed to for the full season.

    NEW season Entries Close strictly at 6:30pm AEDT on race night.

    Any entries after this are accepted for the following round. The race server will be passworded with a locked entry list so anyone not on the entry list wont get in even with the password. To be entered in for the season you must enter in the entry thread, provide a GUID in the relevant thread and also set a qualy lap in the league qualy server prior to 6:30pm on the Monday race night.
    NEW FULL FORMATION LAP MANUAL START PROCEDURE
    After testing the full formation manual start procedure on Wednesdays warm up races these turned out pretty good and easily manageable, ideally everyone will join the discord channel for race nights to hear any directions regarding the race start.

    The general rule will be to start single file and follow the leader, you can weave and warm your tyres up here but be aware of cars ahead and behind at all times. Do your best to avoid causing any issues for others, then the second last corner of the track start to line up double file (may change for some tracks and be in that rounds thread)

    Everyone should be in formation by the time the field makes it around the last turn and cars on the main straight should maintain 80kmh until the green light is given.

    Anyone going considerably early enough to gain an advantage here may be given a post race time penalty. Cars behind the leader aren't allowed to back up and then anticipate the green to get an unfair run on the cars ahead of them. Same with front row cars they arent allowed to accelerate before the lights are green.
    Yanet's Weather Forecast :thumbsup:

    As Dynamic weather is still broken it will be another dry race weekend, we had enough rain the first 3 rounds so it will stay dry until weather is fixed in ACC servers. Zandvoort looks to be a bit cooler then Misano and more overcast with 19 to 22c expected for the race. Temps and the race night sessions will be the same as the practice servers currently setup but they arent exactly fixed should be within a few degrees of expected temps and P Q R may be all a bit different due to different session start times.

    Hotlap server will be 16/18 temps and this is close to what qualy will be at.

    Maybe wrong person on the other side of the bed, woke up thinking it was Janet then opened eyes and found out it wasnt. :laugh:

    We hired her so you guys would notice the weather but it seems everyone is focused on the messenger and not such much the message. :D

    A reminder tonight will be 2x 30 minutes open Aussie server racing with SA75, Rooz whitelist still in effect as usual. There wont be any pit stop rules and also will be regular short start with limiter as thats all that we can do in an open server still. Race sessions will be the same times as Monday night with 2x time to scale to real race 1hr races.

    We will likely see a sizeable update to ACC on Monday also, any bets it's released 10 minutes before we're due to start? (based on previous patch timing :D)

    Luckily being a sprint round if it hits as usual just before qualy then a small delay wont be a huge issue.

    They posted a hint on their FB page this morning, the assumption is it will include a skin editor in-game. Given it's been 6+ weeks since the last update there will likely be a pretty big changelog of other stuff also.
