Our special formats

TEAM RACE – Except when otherwise stated, teams are formed by grid positions: first with last, second with second-to-last, and so on. Points according to the scoring system. Points are added up by team. Drivers with no qual lap time set race as individuals and earn no points. The team with more points wins. In a dead heat the race winner's team wins.

ONE LAP QUALIFYING – Drivers join the server, then wait till they are called by race admin to start their warmup and fast lap. While someone is on his fast lap, the next driver starts his warmup lap. When a driver finished his fast lap, he must stop and hit esc-enter. Drivers will be called in join order. Race admin drives last. When all drivers set a lap time, they can leave the pits for testing purposes, but are not allowed to complete the lap. After practice time clocked down we run a fun race.

SEMI-REVERSED GRID – If we would have a constant number of drivers it could be a simple reversed grid, but nowadays we see only 6-9 cars on the grid. So to avoid the problem of 12-14 empty slots on the top of the grid we use this semi-reversed method.
Grid position swappings for Semi-Reversed Grid Events:
1 -> 4, 2 -> 3, 3 -> 2, 4 -> 1
5 -> 8, 6 -> 7, 7 -> 6, 8 -> 5
9 -> 12, 10 -> 11, 11 -> 10, 12 -> 9
13 -> 16, 14 -> 15, 15 -> 14, 16 -> 13
17 -> 20, 18 -> 19, 19 -> 18, 20 -> 17
This works automatically, you don't have to leave and rejoin the server in specific order.

HOTLAP CHALLENGES – These are offline hotlap competitions with given track+mod combos. Each challenge has a window when you can set your lap times. It starts usually 15 days before deadline. You must upload your player.ini (plac65.ini, etc) file to enter a challenge. If you are a registered Groundhog driver, please log in before uploading your file. If you are new to this league, you can upload your file and will be registered as a guest automatically. Before further uploads please contact a league admin for login data.

Hello Jani,

I have some questions:

1. I haven't to register somewhere to join this races. Is it correct?

2. I have to join about iGOR because these are MOD66 races? Maybe it's a stupid question, but I haven't experience with iGOR (some years before I have joined some MOD66 races, but in EOLC we done it about VROC).

3. Which gpl MOD will be used? INT/PRO/GP SHORT/LONG?

BR
Olaf

[fajanko]

Hey Olaf!

1. You don't have to register.

2. I host the event in iGOR, but once you have a patched exe I suppose you can join via IP too. (I will share that in race topic on Weekly before the event.)

3. Int-Long.

+ See private message!

j.

[GrandPrixYannick]

This evening on 20:30 UK Time is a Fun Event.

It will be held the Monza Junior circuit with only Porsche 910 for cars (GT).

A hotlap challenge last week ended incredibly close with the Top-5 being less than 0.2 seconds from each other.
So it promises to be a very close race if we have a big grid.
Join the fun!
