This is an Endurance event :
Qualification start time: GMT 20:00 ( 30 min )
Race start time: GMT 20:30 (36 Laps Approx. 80 min)

Important Please Read

For this event we are using a modified version of the original Mercedes 300 SEL 6.8L mod made by DonPanoz. Permission was granted by DonPanoz to Yves Larose to make the modifications to the mod and use it for the event. The modifications are the following:

- Tyre wear has been modified to suit the new fuel tank capacity and fuel consumption.
- The fuel tank has been reduced to 75 Ltr compared to the 140 Ltr of the original mod.
- The fuel consumption has been made higher than the original mod.
- Liveries have been added and/or deleted.

Note 1: Tyre and fuel will be set at normal
Note 2: Only the skins that come with the mod please. The first 22 signups have to pick a different livery, after that the next 22 sign up follow the same rule. See liveries choice pic below, just indicate the livery number (orange number) you want to use with your sign up.

Note 3: Unpack simply extract the GameData folder to the main GTL folder and let it overwrite if asked. If you already have the mod installed it is recommended that you move it to a temporary location before installing the new one. It is also recommended that after the event you replace the modified version of the mod with the original one to avoid any conflict in further events that use it.
Note 4: We are using the SIMBIN lobby for this event. See here how to switch lobby.
Note 5: Qualy is an unlimited laps within the qualifying period.
Note 6: Racing Room must be given to all drivers – and this works both ways. Divebombing into and across a corner denies people the chance to make the corner correctly just as much as someone obliviously (or deliberately) cutting the nose off of another driver who has achieved partial overlap fairly.
Note 7: The track boundary is the white lines and 2 wheels must remain between them at all times even on the oval part of the track the wall to the right is not the track boundary. the first oval part is between turn 5 and turn 6 and the second oval part is between turn 14 and turn 1 ( see track map below)

thanks for posting ill report back ASAP


is it that its not starting also after stalling the car

 

[Antonio Tavares]

Don't know if it's related, but the other night in Bathurst with the TA's I noticed that it was not easy to start the car also. I have a button box with mapped buttons for ignition and starter; if I pressed ignition the car would go off, but after it took some time and several tries before I was able to turn it on again.

@Peter van Zanten @Garbea Florin @Dmytro Botnarenko @Mike Bell @Kariem Janssen @Hyji - I see you have signed up for the endurance event - why not come check out some of the club racing - currently were hoping for a full server on Tuesday in the Lotus 7 event at Donnington as shown here :
http://www.racedepartment.com/forum...rk-tue-29-th-october-2013.76442/#post-1555190

Sign ups are like a crack in a dam - starts with a slow flow then its gets bigger and next you have a flood! Help us make the flood happen !!!

Would be great to see you there.

Hyji - you would need to apply for your racing licence (and have it processed/approved) in order to take part in either event.

 

[Hyji Sinderin]
