I also tought the "Ring" spoke for itself.. but indeed the "Kyoto Ring" stands for 3 circuits.. So indeed it is the Kyoto Oval Rev. I will add the extra information to the calendar. And look out ... This will be a 1 hour race or 72 laps.. It should be possible to do this with 1 pit stop...but just..I mean the tyres will be so gone, they will be to cold to give you a lot of grip and then the "one" special turn in this circuit will be very tough !!! On the other hand an extra pit stop with tyre change will also cost you a lot of time.. To test this you only have to drive 36 laps or 30 minutes. Cu all on track Cu Hanziboy

And yesterday I did the first race test.. And what seems?? after 56 rounds still good tyres.. So they will hold untill the end of the race. Offcourse a will have a forced pitstop .. An extra challenge with the difficult in and out from it !
I really advice that you practice some pitstops this weeks.I'm sure you can gain a lot of seconds with a good pitstop..And a second on this circuit is a lot to catch up! Also try not to cross the YELOW lene on the pit exit . The YELOW line is longer then the white one. Normally we don't care if the racers cross the lines during entering the pit but on this fast track this to dangerous so also during enternig the pitlane you may not cross the YELOW lines 1
Because they are not so visible we will place a markings on the beginning and end of the Yelow line. But only during practice so racers would learn where they have to turn in and out. Those markings wil not be there during the race..
Cu all on track

Thanks for putting some pitlane markers up Sennaboy. Although I think I ran over the first pitlane marker yesterday during our test race. Are you going to walk the pitlane in & out painting arrows for us? It was a good test for tires yesterday. The left side was good, the rights never warmed up (unless you spun). It should be a fun race.

....Hans was second on two laps ... it was indeed 3 laps.. after some invasive manoeuvres after a crash of Scatter, I went to fly like are real "trekky" and came down on my four wheels, harder then a bird without wings.. I made it to the pit again after seeing sennaboy passing me for 2 laps. then I had a pit stop for another 3 laps .. luckely with enough fuel for the remainder of the race... and finished without further incidents.. Tyres were very nice, set to. No fault to Scatter at all, but in the first corner, it is just on and sometimes over the limit and with a car in front of you crashing.. mostly there is nothing you can do. Brake and you see the wall, turn hard and you go into uncontrolled spin... It was also the first time I could meet or new member : SLO_knuckels and I also think or oldest member now !! Welcome to our league !! SLO_scatter brought him to us (thanks). The race itself is HARD.. Very HARD on arms and knuckles ;D. And some may still feel it the day after... . MAJOR tip : set forcefeedback no harder then 15 !!! ALSO please make sure you all set the buttons on your wheel to look left and right. This is absolutly neccesary to know exactly where the other racer is!!! Also know you can change the angle of looking in the options in case it is not set to 90°. cu Hanziboy

Normally we don't care if the racers cross the lines during entering the pit but on this fast track this to dangerous so also during entering the pitlane you may not cross the YELOW lines ! And did anyone cross the yelow lines on pit enterance or exit?? It would save me to watch the review. For the rest I had a great race on track .. My start was great !!! started on the last position, because I was to late for the qualif (thanks again for waiting). After 1 lap I climed from 6th to 3th position and stayed close with Juetsch within a range of 1- 3 seconds..Once I was of the track to make the pitstop, it was a dissaster. Shifted in the wrong gear and got a drive trough and at the box I could not stop it in time so I had to try to fit the box 3 times ... So I've lost a lot of time.. After the pitstop and stop en go penalty I was 12 seconds behind OLD_Mumhra in 3th position. I took 0.3 sec /lap from him and ended at 3 seconds after him 36 laps later. It was the first time I've made an errorless race (on track)

...... I tried, I swear I tried, but I fell asleep. Even when I horned you when you came out of the pits??? LOL.. Nothing you could do about it, and SLO_Scatter had no where else to go, just I've had with the slidings of SLO_Scatter during the test race.

No problem xtian. Indeed, I had no place to go to avoid hitting you. I'll have to watch the replay, but I think I locked it down (brakes), but the car just slid.
It was a good race, and I actually made it farther than I was expecting to. I kept slapping the wall forcing me to pit for repair. I even finished the final lap with my left rear wheel toed out.
Congrats to the podium finishers! Great job guys!

strange no reaction from PE.... ;D ;D But indeed a 20 seconds penalty for crossing the pitlane exit line.. Official Races Result 1. Jyuetsch 2. Hanziboy 3. Pe (20 seconds penalty) 4. SLO_Scatter 5. Sennaboy DNF (time out no 80% driven) 6. Xtian (DNF no 80% of race) Pool : Sennaboy Fastest lap Sennaboy Climber : Hanziboy conclusion .. Very poor number of racers..

Hello At first I do accept the result but I have a question! I´d like to know the fastest lap time, because I saw in lap 65 that I drove a "fastest lap" (0:48.310) and Sennaboy was out of the race in this moment. So he couldn´t drive a faster time. What is the reason? Thank you and CU on track soon. J.

strange no reaction from PE.... ;D ;D Why should i give a reaction ? I did not know i crossed the line and now i'm to lazy to go and check what exactly went wrong. You made a screenie so it looks like i made a mistake. I accept the penalty that comes with it. No need to react
