I would expect we will have at least one person no show...It's a safe bet you'll be able to get into the Dubai race.

Mike is hosting a practice in about 90 minutes from now.

Congratulations we1ty, nice debut. Watch out SECR, I'll be on top of the car come Zuhai, last minute setup changes really didn't work out. Good racing by everyone, let's hope we can keep the numbers up in the coming rounds.

Thanks guys! Had lots of fun doing it too. From what I saw it was great racing in the pack. I remember seeing two guys go side-by-side up the hill, and it was done cleanly too!

Is this the point system used for the LMP3 series ?

Now that you mention the points system, I've often wondered why the points systems don't reflect those used in the actual championships we run.
It's a non issue for me but just from a realism point of view.

It could also add a bit of incentive to push for that last points paying position rather cruising round in 11th knowing you'll get points anyway, or gain an extra point in qualifying, if applicable.

Plus the admins don't have enough to do anyway 😉

Honestly, it would be a pain to do. The only way to do it would be to do it manually and give bonus points to the existing structure. Ain't nobody got time for that.

Remember to simulate smog by turning on fog, preferably heavy.

A night race in Zuhai was scary enough for me, but have spent the last 10 days getting used to the thought (and track). But smog/fog just blew me away! This is going to be intense!
