Red Flag procedure
-When the person rejoins the room the current time index & lap # will be taken.
-No passing is to occur and all cars are to proceed to the front straight but behind the start/finish line.
-In current order, cars will pass the start/finish line to see if any cars are 1 lap behind the leader or more.
-Car order and laps down will be noted for the restart.
-The car that dropped will be placed behind the last place car. (Call this mechanical difficulties).
-The time index or lap count taken will be used to calculate the remaining time/laps of the race.
-Laps maybe added to the remain laps to allow for the lead cars to "relap" the lapped cars.
-The race will be restarted, however the first lap(s) will be used to get the cars into proper order and laps down if needed.
-Once any lapped cars have been "relapped" the first place car will lead as a "pace car" for 1 lap. No cars may change positions until after crossing the start/finish when the race condition is again green.

Sweet, I like driving the little Beemer. Been quite a while though, I think the last time I had it out was when there was all that hype over the 1M release.

I'll be driving dark blue with black/grey rims.

Beemer = Motorcycle

Bimmer = Car

Ok carry on...

B.M.W., Broke My Wallet, better?

Funny, i was just thinking the other day that a DTM series would be awesome, but this seems like a great time. Good call.

I am hoping that the championship wont be tii'd.......

I am sorry for the lameness...but I am letting you know I am going to try the tii tonight at around 9ish.....

Can you change the racetracks? There are a lot of other racetracks in the game that are great, we don't have to pick always the same ones. Trial Mountain, Grand Valley, Autumn Ring, Dayton 200, Tsukuba, Special Stage Route, Eigen Norward

We already raced on Laguna and Suzuka, and we will race on Spa, and I hate Fuji Speedway what an awful waste of space that track is whoever design the last corner should be shot and then shot again.

Just to troll a little bit more, shouldn't it be Bavaria's Most Wanted? Berlin is 588 kilometers away from where these cars were manufactured.

I debated that.... however with the autobahn they easily got to Berlin in under 3hrs and started causing havoc!

That I will agree with! As long as you don't say 'same difference'. Bavarians are a very proud people, and go to lengths to not consider themselves Germans

Oh trust me I'm well aware.... so does this chat mean you're joining the series?

Sadly, I was just sent on a mission to annoy from the iRacing camp.

That said, if I had GT5, it looks like a fun series!

I'll be driving a Matte Red with black rims

I'll miss this one. I'm back to a ship and will be away for that time frame.

I'm going to be missing the first practice, and likely the first race night of this series, but I'll post my car anyway, Matte Black car, Lime Green wheels.

Please note the some of the courses and # of laps for this series have changed.

See above for the changes.

I probably won't be online tonight, if I do it'll be after 8:30.

Should be on around 7:30

I'll be driving a car with 4 wheels...

We need to run racing tires on this car. It's a bag of sh!t on sports.

I second that, this car needs racing tires. I played with the suspension settings but this car is just not nice to drive.

I did agree, but after spending a BUNCH of time tuning, I was able to get the car pretty decent. That being said, I would 100% support racing hards on this car for the series. No sense in burning out a bunch of people who want to race with us by running 2 rather difficult to tune cars in a row, running on race hards would give a bit back to the driver and some away from set-up.

This car is push loose right now on sports.

might get the edn of this series

Will have no internet for a few weeks

I'm going to be on late tonight, can only be on after 8h15.

I may make it tonight, we are finally in the new house, so I'm still trying to find where some things got packed.

Sounds like a few people maybe late.
We will start tonight at 8:30

I'm re-evaluating the tires right now to see if RACING HARD are required or if SPORTS SOFT will do.
