    Guys, based on entries at the moment, if we need to merge to 3 divs then that is what we will do by moving div 3 up here....

    I am hopeful though that we get more entries confirm in the next week or so, but we also dont want a half grid every week...

    If we merge 2 and 3, we will have a 2 tier championship, if @Bounty05 can work it in the tables.......Stay tuned !

    Ok guys, Generic post to all divs
    Track list is up in OP.
    - We have made a few changes to the div placement, but if you see someone that is CLEARLY out of position after tonights meet and greet, please let me know so we can adjust divs before next weeks round 1.
    - As always, am sure that there are tracks / variations that people wont like, but these cars seem to give good racing everywhere so we have tried to go with tracks not used, or rarely used.
    - If you have decided NOT TO RACE please let me know so we can take you out of the div lists so we know where the spare spaces are. If we can fill them we will.
    - ROUND 4 at Algarve is a RANDOM WEATHER RACE. We will test this a little more before that round and if any problems we will adjust accordingly
    - Round 5 is our 'wet race', with a wet qual and then a dry race start, with rain starting in the final weather stint.
    - REMEMBER that the Renault is the faster FWD (slightly) car in the group. If you pick the MERC you can only change after round 1. Please keep this in mind in terms of the 7 rounds.....
    - We will get the teams championship sorted next week once we confirm the division placements
    - The cars are hard on tyres, and they do have a tendency to overheat the fronts.... There is still plenty of grip, and we have tried to keep the track temps in the window between "about" 30*-45*
    - With the wear on ACCELERATED, there should be a heap of strategy in making them last, and whether to take tyres at your stop, or keep the worn ones till the race end.
    - you shouldnt need fuel, and while 'STABLE' seems the better setup, some tracks mat suit 'LOOSE'

    Hope its a great season guys, we have massive grids in each division, so there should be some cracking racing.
    For our new drivers, please know and understand our rules regarding track limits and contact....I will highlight these as well in the driver briefing each week.
    Stu

    Meet & greet was good, do I understand correctly @stucar17 ? OSCHERSLEBEN short for the Enduro? The ENDURO?!

    How maniacal was the laughter when that little gem was dreamt up?!
    I Hate to nitpick the fine work of the mods, but any chance of a swap with a less manic circuit?

    ok guys, not long now till we grid up for race 1 of the season.
    Expect some close pack racing, so PLEASE take care to not punt each other off track !
    - If you do make contact, redress where necessary
    - Remember track limits, you cant run wide of the track / ripple strips or white lines
    - All drivers have been allocated a team, please make sure you are in the right livery.... All posted in the first post of the teams championship thread. http://raceonoz.com/forums/index.php?threads/teams-championship-official.3589/

    HOpe you all have a great race guys and girls.... Dont forget to get the results or qual and race !

    I did there same as a few others, realised during the race changing rear tyres was pointless, crashed while I was scrolling through the menu trying to change pit strategy! D'oh!
    I think the battle was on for 5th or 6th if It wasn't for that mess, looks like a close season ahead.

    Shouldn’t have taken tyres. Otherwise an awesome race in a little gem of a car. Chased @freddyp_33 most of the first half of the race, but came out the pits alone to the end. Sorry for the little nudge @brenticles. Well done aadman.

    I was sitting 2nd prior to the stop and stupidly took all 4 tyres :mad:
    Came out 10th and had no pace because the pressures where all wrong. Lesson learnt for next week is to practice before the race to work out my race strategy....

    also some great racing and battles. I enjoyed being back!
