Hi Johannes,

I need your choice of car for that. And will you enter your real name in your account, account details, field Real Name. It's a RaceDepartment rule.

Have not noticed anyone else mention this:
The picture of the track is the Endurance 108,
but the description says we are on the Eudurance Cup 108
The two options look different.
Which layout are we racing on?

 

[random2k4]

Endurance takes the entire GP track in addition to the Nordschleife and the Cup version skips Ford-Kurve, Dunlop Kehre and Schumacher S. So it takes a Hairpin directly after the first couple of curves into RTL Kurve.
I am practicing the entire track including the GP track, but I guess we are using the Cup version.

 

[RasmusP]

Using the Cup version would be a first time here at RD I think. We always used the Endurance layout with the Dunlop Kehre to get SOME overtaking possibilities and also because the Cup-Layout-Cut 90° right hander will cause a lot of collisions imo...

Think there are way more dangerous corners on the Nords that cause collisions
My only aim is nontheless just to:

Starting with Nurb T1, yeah
But I think the "full" Nürburgring layout always gives some time to breath and to overtake. You only have to learn the cut-T2, which isn't that hard due to barriers and the low speed.
However taking a completely new, almost invisible right hand turn on a straight is very weird
When I tested that layout I just couldn't get it right... Either was crawling on the straight or flew past the turn

It's the Endurance Cup. Sorry for the wrong picture. I've raced this lay out a couple of weeks ago in an other community. I prefer this because it has only a small part of the Nurnburgring GP circuit. We will do that circuit somewhere in the future again so to be not too repetitious I've chosen this lay out.

Ah, so something fresh
Well, I'll better practice a bit then!

Good thing is: I always lost a full second on the gp part compared to the front runners during the Nordschleife events

There's a very difficult sharp right turn in this lay out that took me quit some time to master. So yes, you'd better practice.

 

[Interslice]

Sounds good. Never heard of the cup layout. Glad i noticed in advance... Seems a small learning in the grand scheme of things!

Since this has been moved back to SGP, I suggest all participating people to go and change their liveries as currently everyone seems to get assigned the same default skin, so it will be hard to tell people apart in the race. You can change the skin by temporary switching to another car and then back and it will ask you for the skin you'd like to pick

You can also do it directly by clicking on the skin name under the car name in the cars selection page.

Yeah, I didn't notice that it was there and clickable. That's even easier, thank you!

 

[HF2000]

Just to be clear here. There's a fair chance that I will run this event on a RD server and not on s.gp in which case I will select the liveries and make sure that there will be the utmost diversity. However, you will get the livery in the order on joining the server, not the one you have chosen on s.gp. Sorry for this. The s.gp platform itself is stable but somehow there's a problem with running it from the RD community.

Did some "laps" with various cars but haven't set a time yet. Still a bit work left to complete a full clean and semi-fast lap But I see why it's such a popular track How will it be racing there? I have no idea
