Guys i have to sign out from this champiosnhip. It seems that my renovating from my new house is going to take a lot longer and i miss a lot of races. Id rather give my place away to sombody who can commit himself, I try to do a few clubraces instead until my house is done incl internet etc etc etc etc etc AAAAAAARGHHH moving and renovating

What about helmet skins? I've created my vehicle skin just fine, but I haven't a clue where I'm supposed to find a helmet template, and where to place it so it shows ingame.

 

[Oscar Hardwick]

Sign me up. Shame it'll be as a reserve.

Sorry to hear it Bjorn, thanks for letting us know.

Oscar,We have added you to the reserve/guest driver list.
There are only 24 full time drivers at present.
I will be surprised if 4 reserves don't get a drive each race.

There is a helmet psd in the ISI downloads section, and a driver suit one too.
Once you have painted them you put them in the same location as the alt.dds car skin and you name them exactly the same but ending in HELMET.dds and DRIVER.dds
eg
myskinalt.dds
myskinaltHELMET.dds
myskinaltdriver.dds

HOWEVER
the modern helmet I found didnt fit the Helmet of the FR 3.5 (Ill double check this)
EDIT: yes the helmet is wrong for this car. The pattern that was on the chin in certain cars is on top of my helmet in this one.
If anyone has a solution please share it with us.

6/9/2014 Please see the notice board section of the OP.
pasted here for your convenience,

6th Sept 2014 Notice
Please note that the calendar above has been updated with the circuit names.
Two other points.
1) To make even more it interesting,the final race of the season at Silverstone will be a 60 minute race. Points will be awarded at 150% of the normal for race 1. This means the round will have the same points value but will be earned in one final race. With a tyre change becoming probable it should be fun.
2) The two test events as you know are there for ranking purposes. Please keep some perspective. They are not a world championship or even a qualifying session. No points are awarded. We just need you to show your representative pace in a least one of them to help with team formation. Please show us what you have. We reserve the right to adjust a drivers ranking if we believe he has not run on his merits (as they say in horse racing) so no sandbagging please.​

 

[Patrick Wannemuller]

Dont know if its wrong to post here before getting the RD licence but id like to join you guys.

 

[Oscar Hardwick]

Nationality: English

What is:

Your favourite Track? Straight tie between Bathurst and Laguna Seca

RF2 vehicle/s? URD GTs or the FR 3.5

Favourite real world driver? Alonso, cannot argue with raw talent and ability

You favourite (or most attractive) movie star or celebrity? Olivia Wilde

Do you prefer Gym or Lounge? Lounge

Beer or wine? Ice Tea

Do you do your own set-ups? Yes, everyone should take time to learn. Once you know how you can custom build setups to yourself and find heaps of time.

Trickiest bit of the Fr 3.5 2014? Remaining consistent with the varying grip levels.

Best Sim-Racing result? Last year was a bit of a breakout for me. Won my first drivers and constructors championships in a very competitive environment, although my first win in LFSCART light always brings back good memories.

Goals for the season? Should I be able to attend all the races win the championship. If not then just win as much as possible.

Anything else you want us to know? On track I give as much room as I get. Happy to be roughed up but if you dish it out you have to be ready for the same elbows out style right back

Having fun, as always.

My first ever skin, pretty satisfied (aside from the formula vee I skinned to learn how):

Feedback would be most appreciated ! skinning tips etc.

Welcome Patrick I'll put you on reserve list.

 

[Martin Bulgin]

Just wanted to mention that I was impressed by the clean opening lap last night. Didnt see any contact from where I sat and it allowed us all to race to our abilities or until our cars broke!
Well done all.

The reconaissance lap was a different way to start. I quite liked it from the perspective of providing a different challenge and more immersion.
Any view from anyone on this?

I have a bad memory, the recon lap is the same thing as the formation lap ? I always prefer having this lap rather than just jumping straight to the grid and start racing.

Changing the subject to circuits I just had some laps at the COTA track, it's the first time I have driven there and it's the sort of track I like, lots of undulations and changes of level, it's a shame it didn't make it into the league but how about having one of the test races there ?

 

[Martin Bulgin]

Lol I posted the above before I saw that COTA will host the first test race .......................Excellent
