[SOLO59]

That was really fun! Only 7 guys for the rental karts and then only three of us in the direct drive karts. The rental races were challenging because if you end up in the grass, your race is over, because the karts stick to the grass like glue. But if you are determine to finish the race, then you might be able to get yourself out. I did, and it felt like "ages" trying to drive the kart off the grass. Some of us even tried bumping those that were stuck in the grass, so they can continue on with the race. (thats something you'll never see on public servers) But good racing in the rentals.

Now on to the direct drive karts, this is where the fun REALLY took place. Only three of us, which is all we needed, and I think we were the top three fastest from the rental event, so we anticipated for the direct kart event to be very interesting. And interesting it was! @Ryan Seltzer, @Enzo Fazzi and I shared some epic battles, close racing action, and a few lead changes. This event was probably the most fun I have ever had here at RD, even though it was only 3 of us and it was a kart race (unlike a Fclassic, V8, GT3 race events etc...those of which provide outstanding racing experiences). Thanks Nox for this great event.
I hope to gather some time to watch those replays and maybe put together some highlights

@SOLO59 @Enzo Fazzi @Ryan Seltzer how did it work with the three race sessions?

Schedule
RENTAL KARTS
Practice: 19:00 GMT
Quali 1: 19:10 GMT - 5 minutes, super-pole (one out lap, one hot lap, one in lap).
Warmup 1: 19:15 GMT - 3 minutes

Race: 19:20 GMT - 10 minutes each.
Note: I will set the server to 3 race sessions. I believe this makes reverse grid for race 2, then the top so many go to a third final round. It might work, it might not, we'll see what happens and have fun anyway. Then I can know for sure for future events.

DIRECT DRIVE KARTS
We can repeat the process in the Direct Drive Karts. I estimate the start time for the second round quali at 20:00 GMT.

Two ten minute races and then a nine minute race. Race two and three were both reverse grid. Oh and the rentals were quite interesting on the grass. It was all quite fun though. Thanks for organizing it. I believe everyone raced on the third race, but that was only 5? On the rentals and just the three if us on the direct drives.

 

[Nox]

Thanks for the info; we'll try 3 races again next time then, sounds like fun.

 

[Slalom823]

The karts tend to be fun for casual racing that becomes very close. Maybe someday it could be possible to do a kart mini series or something similar if the interest is there? A short 3 or 4 event championship. Just a thought.

 

[Nox]

Yeah, the thought has crossed my mind. I know we have Londrina Kart coming up soon as well, so that'd be a good time if we are going to do it. Maybe even like a one night or two night thing.

Special Notes
You do not need to do an entire out lap. As you leave the pits there are three lanes. If you drive through the gate on the right, a timed lap will begin once you get to the cones under the Bilstein bridge. This is the only lane where this happens.

You do not need to go around the entire track on an outlap. At the pit entry, instead of going left onto the Nordschleife, stay right.

You must stay within the cones, much like the white line when you exit the pits. Begin your fast lap and have a clean pair of undies ready. Don't do this when you are on a timed lap! Return to the pits and go round again.

[Dachsos]

well, everything went well until warmup. first i had some graphics issues and massive fps dropdown, then suddenly my force feedback got lost somehow, and i had to turn the wheel much more than normally to get around a corner.
started GSC new twice, replugged my wheel, nothing helped, when in came back to the game, session was closed and race started, so that practice time was for nothing
already had these issues with the wheel in the last race with the v8´s in ipswich, where it happened during race.
these problems seem to occur since 1.25, never had it before...

 

[Antmerino]

@Dachsos , It will be a bug, reiza has confirmed, that retro f1 and Johannesburg track have optimization problems.
