GT-Sport [Completed] Super Production Championship Cup

Announcement and Apology:
With Round 1 of the Rebel Cup done, hopefully some of the bugs and issues within the series are getting sorted out.

To speed up the protest protocol I bought in a rule that involved stewards viewing a protest without contacting the driver being protested against unless there was further information required. Then once a decision has been reached, the results are announced with the protestee given the right to appeal.
In hindsight I understand that this was a mistake. It did not give the opportunity of right of reply before the announcement, (or as someone put it to me, a Kangaroo Court situation.)
So from now on we will revert back to the normal process in regards to protests.

I would also like to take this opportunity to personally apologise to @apex2691 and @Blackarmour34 for being the first drivers involved in this new protest procedure. It was not my intention to cause issues.

As a result, I have appealed both decision on behalf of both of you. I do have some information from you guys, but if you would like to offer more information in regards to your incidences, please contact me though PM ASAP as results of the appeal will be delivered by the end of the week.

You Live and learn.

Cheers.

Can we please have all drivers planning on racing in the CC this week turn up tonight for a meeting in the midst of the lobby issues we're having. There is a plan we can have in place which will require everyone being on board and understanding what we're going to try (Manual rolling start, video recording of race etc etc).

Cheers

Make a time so everyone knows when to be there?

Sorry, I had written that I would be there early, but then deleted, and posted as I'm working haha.

Lets say room will be open from 7.30AEDT - 9.30pm NZ Time at the latest. I should be on before then though.

It's fine if you open the room early, but let's aim to have driver briefing at 8.30pm for those that can't join earlier and after doing some testing beforehand before reaching a decision. With some luck, the issue may fix itself before Thursday, but let's plan for the worst. I think it should still be possible to run a race in Practice mode with some discipline

Thanks Ursine - been a bit hectic here today with a staff member quitting and trying to cover a few things, my mind has been racing. 8.30pm sounds perfect, I shall be there

Don't know about Spa, but either run by other means or postpone. Let's see.
My idea (still to be tested) to determine race times is for everyone to park up after lap 21, take a screenshot (and save last hour of game play) and use the difference in total elapsed time and lap 22 time to calculate the finishing time.

Tried a "race only" last night, the obvious happened.
I am sure you probably have tried this, but will it run "Qually/Race" format, or a race on "time" format, not laps?
I doubt it will work

The other difference with running a race in practice mode is you'll need to work out refuel amount yourself as you won't get a diamond indicator

What's the diamond indicator? I've always just gone by the "remaining laps" number which is there in practice mode? What have I been missing out on? haha

The diamond works on current/till now usage.
If you get no slipstream or rev harder you will run out.

Ditto never noticed the diamond, but to make you feel better I didn't see the laps left on fuel gauge till R2 season 2

This round might be just as much about maths as racing!

Apparently I do need glasses

FYI everyone there is a system update(took about 10 minutes)

Lobbies seem fixed after 2 test races
