VSCC S1 | Round 2: Interlagos | 27 November 2011

Bram Hengeveld · Oct 20, 2011

Session Info

Practice: On race day the servers will be open all day to practice
Qualification: 19:30 GMT (20 minutes)
Warm-up: 19:50 GMT (10 minutes)
Race: 20:00 GMT (50 minutes)

Special note start of the race: The drivers go to the grid as if for a standing start and wait for the red lights to go off and the green ones to go on. When the latter happens the leader starts the formation lap and drives it at a constant speed of 100-120 kph (60-75 mph) the other drivers follow in a single file!. Excessive swaying (zig-zag) and brake tests are not allowed during the formation lap. At the last corner of the track the formation lap ends and the leader can speed up as he likes. Drivers may not overtake before they cross the finish line. After that the race is on.
To make sure everyone has a fair chance of the start every driver must make sure that is he close behind the car in front of him during the formation lap, though still leaving enough room to anticipate on unexpected manoeuvres.

On Sunday November 20 we are running a club event at Interlagos. Feel free to join us if you need the (online) practice. Click here

Ivo Simons · Nov 24, 2011

Find it difficult to find my rhythm here. Was easier on Curitiba.

Should be a fun race also now with two push to pass zones.

There is a practice server up. Dont forget to update the skinpack.

Bram Hengeveld · Nov 25, 2011

Wish I had time to practice. I don't have high hopes for this race. Don't like Interlagos at all

Andy Smith · Nov 25, 2011

These 137.xxx seem so out of reach to me at the moment. Still yet to break 1.40 but will keep practicing. At least i'm gettig consistent now but fast is a long way off.

Patrick Giranthon · Nov 25, 2011

Not better than 1.38.126 at this time...

Robert Wiesenmüller · Nov 25, 2011

1.37.7 for me until now, I think I can bring it to 1.37.3 but not much faster. Word on the street is you need a 1.35.9 to beat Sene, well I won't be beating him

. Consistency is the much bigger problem for me, I tend to get it all wrong, spinning on the kerbs or running wide on these colourful areas.

Patrick Giranthon · Nov 25, 2011

50 minutes is a long time. Consistancy will be important. And the setup too.
I hope for great battles overall. That is the goal!

tAz-07 · Nov 25, 2011

Average 1:39-1:40 for now.

Remember we have the white line rule here on RD. Lots of other communities dont.
And there is alot of time to gain if you run four wheels on the kerb on this track.

And like you guys say. 35.9 says only something about one lap.

Scott Webber · Nov 25, 2011

One guy can set the fastest time he wants, does not mean his consistency is good in a 50 minute race, remember consistency will l gain you places, aslong as you keep a steady time.

Diogo Macedo · Nov 26, 2011

All i really want from this championship is to improve my driving skills and knowledge about setup's.

But the true is that i have not been able to train as much i'd like to.

Let's see what Interlagos has for me. I just hope that it's not a race like the one at Curitiba.

Petteri Kotovaara · Nov 26, 2011

Would it be possible to be reserve driver for this event?

Leonardo Ferreira · Nov 26, 2011

Well, I was not so happy for this race due personal and car setup problems

. But at this morning I´ve training hard and some changes on setup and in my steering wheel improved the car handling a lot

! I´m very confiddent for tomorrow race at least to reach points. I´m making a little break now to watch the Brazilian GP F1 Pratice at Interlagos (What a coincidence!), in my home tv of course kkkkkkk. Eating some popcorn and drinking a delicious and cold Stella Artois (beer). After this let´s come back to work (car setup)

!

Ivo Simons · Nov 27, 2011

Remember to install the new skinpack when you join the server for tonight.

Diogo Macedo · Nov 27, 2011

Sorry guys i will not be able to take part in this round. Not feeling so good. One of the reserve guys can take my place. Sorry. Really hope to be back for Londrina.
