    Was having some fun in the GT4 at Bathurst the other day. I don't recommend going full noise over skyline!

    GT4 Sprint Series - Round 1 - Misano - 17/17/20
    [​IMG]
    Server will open at 8:00pm ADST (SYDNEY Time)
    Server 1 - Rooz ACC GT4 Server - Password: Rooz - Captain: JJ_Penguin

    Format
    Prac - 10min
    Q1 - 5min
    R1 - 15min
    Q2 - 5min
    R2 - 15min
    Q3 - 5min
    R3 - 15min


    Lap 1
    Tyre will be stone cold for the majority of the first lap. Extra caution is need for the braking zone for Turn 1 & 2 then again at Curva Del Rio. Give plenty of room and 'stay in your lane' through the first lap. They are short sprint races and people will be looking for any opportunity to pass. Be respectful and give room but almost race hard!

    Each car seems to have a different approach to finding speed. be mindful that the car you are following may not be as quick as you through a certain section of the track or need to brake earlier.

    Pitstops
    No Mandatory Pitstop

    Track Limits
    There are a couple of critical points that may catch people out, especially in qualifying. The outside of Turn 3, 5, and 7 can catch you out if you carry too much speed. Curvone can be tricky and the car gets loose on exit. The Last 2 turns can all catch you out exit if you get a bit too greedy with track limits.

    Replays & Protests
    Drivers must assign a button for 'Save Replay'. The game only records 3 - 4 mins. If you are involved in an incident, saving the replay will be critical for any protests. Press the Save Replay Button 30 - 40 secs after the incident to ensure the moment is recorded.

    Party Chat

    Party Chat will be setup for both Servers. I suggest joining the chat for practice, then you can choose to leave or start your own, that is up to you. But try to join the server chat at the end of the race. Personally, I prefer to have chat off during races.

    GT4 cars are great fun to drive and the racing will be close. This will be good fun.

    Cheers
