RD Le Mans Series Season 1 (rFactor)

[Eckhart von Glan]

yep

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

With exception of the final round (Le Mans by VLM) we havent posted any confirmed tracks in the format. I think it will stay that way and we will announce a track way up front of every upcoming round.
Imho its too tricky to already decide a schedule for the entire year with so many good tracks coming out all the time.

First announcement will be made for the round 1 as soon as possible. I am sure you will like the track

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Or would you guys like a little poll with some track suggestions in it for the first round and the most voted track we pick. :woot: interactive

 

[Mark A Warmington]

Ohhh... Poll sounds nice . If so - VLM's Mid-Ohio (chic or no chic), Elkhart Lake, Sebring and Silverstone all get my vote .

Thanks Damian... How the hell did I miss Fuji and Doni off my wish list!?! . Don't know Miller Motorsports Park (will have to look on YouTube).. Does it go by another name? I may know it and not realise .

 

[Damian Henderson]

It's a great track surrounded by massive mountains! Really amazing scenery and perfect for Endurance racing, they have ALMS there. It's actually quite shocking how less it's used in simracing.

[John-Taylor Tami]

Road Atlanta would be nice. Monza, Mosport, Melbourne...

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

@Damian: its an incredible track, but we cancelled it for the league as it has some major bugs unfortunaty. If you hit certain sandtraps (and that will happen in a 6 hours race ) you will be stuck and there is no way you can get the car in motion again. Totally frozen up in the sand.

 

[Damian Henderson]

Damn that's a shame Hope someone fixes it up or makes a proper new one!

OLDRing, lovely track.

 

[John-Taylor Tami]

As far as favorites go, Oldring is one of my most favorites. Most of my best races were at that track, its a very good track.

But for a multiclass series, its a terrible track. Ive done 4-class racing here (ILMS mod), and it was insane. Theres not enough room for all classes to get along, its very hard. Even the 2 class race I was in, GT1 and GT2, was very tight.

I voted for Road America because its much wider, with better braking zones, allowing for more safe passes between the classes. Its not as fun, but for a 6 hour race, we'll have a lot less wreaks.
