• Events should be no longer than 50 minutes for both heats.

• Events will be once every 2 weeks and start at 8.30pm UK time.

Info I need from people interested in signing up
Do you want to allow all assists, or just set ones, if so what ones?
Driving/braking line will be turned on as I use it.

How do you want to handle connection issues?
I am thinking allow 10 minutes for connection issues, so that is 1 hour in total, but I would like to hear your ideas. I will open the lobby 10 / 15 minutes before the event starts.

Yep, looking good so far, I to hope for a full grid.
Signup post will be going up over the weekend.
I may send some Private Messages out asking if they want to join in etc...

It's a good idea Garry, theres quite a few people active on the forums, so some may be interested.

I can't guarantee my availability for every race due to my working shifts, but as I work from home I'll work around it whenever I can. Hopefully that means I won't miss many, though I'll be able to give plenty of notice either way.

Ash, I have sent you a friend request.

Can we decorate our cars in anyway we like for this...with liveries, sponsors, etc. (within the boundaries of our colours of course)?

Yes we can. Think of the 3 colours you chose as base colours, then build up from there with sponsors and other vinyl groups.

Ok cool. Cheers Dan. I plan to make my car look as Mansell/Williams as possible!

 

[Dan Smith]

Sounds good. I haven't really got any definite ideas down yet. The little air vent on the side of the car keep annoying me!

 

[Wayne Thomas]

I like the idea of teams, however ... If teams are going to be allowed ...... Cars per team 2? 3?
If we get one more entry = four teams of three - allows for dropouts later in season? Just some ideas anyway.

How will team members be allocated - sort it out ourselves? I bagsy whoever wins test event in my team!!:tongue:

Looking forward to this v.much indeed ..

 

[Gaz]

It is 2 per team, or you can go on your own.
Yes it is sort your selves out them let me know, so I can do the points.

Just noticed under the signup bit in the first post I had
If you have a team, each driver will need to post.
There is a maximum of 2 drivers per team.

 

[Wayne Thomas]

Cheers Garry

If anyone wants me they can have me!:wink:

I'd be careful saying things like that. Someone might get the wrong end of your stick!! lol

I'll be your teammate. Gotta keep the Welsh spirit alive!!
