FAQ:
Q. Can I just turn up for the race?
A. NO a whitelist will be put in force at the end of PRACTICE to prevent those people from joining, "who just turn up for the race and crash into everyone at the first corner then leave".  You must sign up and take part in at least any part of the Practice sessions.

Q. Why the A1 Ring AGAIN?
A. I didn't change it yet  ::).

Q. How will the server be 'kept alive' when there is no-one on it?
A. Our good friend The Clerk of the Course will oversee it.

Q. What if I cheat and I'm the only one on track
A. Our good friend The Clerk of the Course will see it.

Q. I cannot make the Race on a Sunday  :(
A. Sign up anyway, if there are enough people we will hold a RACE RERUN later in the week.  :)

Q. How many Restarts?
A. Hopefully NONE, but maximum of 3 - find out what causes jumpstarts and don't do it.

Q Who will decide if the race needs a restart?
A We MAY be having an INDEPENDANT Course Official who wont be racing but will make all those difficult decisions.

More to follow as questions come up.


Please sign up (name and number) if you would like to take part.  :)

No wobble fix yet as far as setup goes. I have softened things down (suspension and tyres) and upped the gearing and changed to steel brakes is all.

Very wet still just now and extremely hard but the track should get more ride-able as time goes on with the sunshine there. Expected a dry line by 6pm at least (temp is a bit cold).

One thing to note is the tyre overheat bug/(realism) really shows up here. If you fall you might as well restart from the pits because temperatures will be >100degrees C and un-rideable - unless you go slow for a lap to make them cool off.

I will have to find our tyre overheat bug thread and bump it, so it is not lost or forgotten. The simple remedy would be to reset tyre temps when resetting the bike I suppose.

Hate 2-strokes, don't like the track, BUT I love Nick's events and I particularly like that my main man Warlock crept out of his eremit cave - so I am in! :)
