LFS New Zealand

Just trying to work out how to add some weights for round 1...any other ideas?? i could work out a ranking from past results like i did for round 1 in the LX4 series.

The qual weight idea would only be for round 1 and max anyone could have would be 30kg. The other rounds weight would be added after the rounds.

not too sure what lfs calculates 1 litre of fuel as,

IRL 1L of petrol is 700g and FOX has 38Litre tank so full tank weights about 26kg which is alot lighter than I thought.

another idea to do a seeding session in a server over the weekend say Sat --- Monday night to see who starts on what weight? use !top fox command to see final results.

Would have to give some points as an incentive to go fast

Anyone around for a bit of Season testing tonight ?

Yip, should be around at some stage, probably around 8ish at a guess.

yea season testing would be good, not around though on plane up north for the weekend.

im availababalle tonight from 8, if the server can go up as AS1 with the Foxies on anyone could join in if they wanted. Make a note of times, do some laps with and without weights etc.

did some laps at AS1 , pretty hard to go fast! sly thorns and steala lots quicker than me. might be my set / probably just my driving. fun as though!

braking points are hard to get right!! especially at T2 and 3 section.

The green line brake points are pretty conservative so have to overshoot them a bit.

anyhoo keen to kick off this Thursday but looks like I cant make it work has this movie thing thats been planned for a while on that night (The Expendables)

just need to decided how we do weights for round 1....its either 15KG for all or I work out a seeding from past series and give you a starting weight - could probably have this done by tonight.

I think the easiest way is 15kg for all to start, and then just run the handicapping system from there, so + or - depending on your finish place (DNF's do not count as last). That way there should always be some people with low weights, 1 or 2 with little to no weight and Sly with 90kilos or so

yep all on 15kg is the simplest way. yea DNF is a N/C for the next round.

And remeber Qualifying is 1 flying lap! Max 3 cars on track at once.

bit late but race details for tonight!


ASTON CADET AS1
- Race 1: 25 laps,
- Race 2: 25 Laps Reverse Grid, MUST PIT!


- All on 15KG
- Flying lap Qualifying: so you get 1 warm up lap and 1 flying lap and thats your qual time. 3 cars max on track!

I can't make tonight race but will try get one of the guys to run the show
