    Let's wait until Sunday (5) to close the championship. Some more people can vote and give ideas until them.

    Ladies and Gentleman, all votes finally accounted. Please, give me your last thoughts:

    CAR: Sprint Racer

    FORMAT: The stages will begin at 18:00GMT.
    Free Training: 15min
    Qualify: 5min
    Race: Two 20 minutes sprints.
    Ingame race time: 10:00AM with clear skies.
    No driving aids.
    Partial damage.
    Full penalties.

    THE CALENDAR IS:
    1st Stage - Interlagos - 09/12
    2nd Stage - Jerez (moto) - 09/19
    3rd Stage - Cascais - 09/26
    4th Stage - Adelaide - 10/03
    5th Stage - Imola - 10/10
    6th Stage - Kensai - 10/17

    SCORING SYSTEM: 25, 20, 16, 14, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4, 3, 2, 1 points earned from first to twelfth place at each sprint. Drivers that completed less than 70% will not earn points.

    FAIR PLAY: This championship will not have any disciplinary committee. We will treat each one of you as gentleman(woman) and any driving accident as an incident. Even them, stick with chivalrous behavior and don't go full Senna over your associates. Please, be faster, not more aggressive. Some paint trade is expected, so don't get to personal about it. Don't complain about other drivers at chat, Steam community, this forum or anywhere else, just send me a private message and, if more than one people complain about the same driver and it's needed, I will do the talk.

    If you are not acquainted with online racing, I strong suggest that you give this a very good reading: https://tarnhoerner.de/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Jimmi-Bos-Guide-For-Unforgivably-Bad-Driving.pdf

    Soooo... no punterino, lads:)
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------
    Explanation:

    Tracks and car are the most voted, plain and simple.

    The stage time is the trickier. With this starting time, more Western folks will race right after the lunch time. For Latin folks it use to be some non-optional family time, but I know that for folks in US it use to be some more flexed time, so the latest GMT (the -5) will have to lunch at 12:00, that I believe that is a very reasonable time. For the folks at more advanced GMT (the +3) the race will end not too late for you to sleep (about 22:00).

    I needed to shorten the free practice and the qualify to 15-5 minutes, so all the stage will last about an hour. All the tracks selected are famous and you all probably know them, so there is no need for a long practice time (it's just a warm-up and a safe-time to everybody log-in to the server).

    The scoring system was taken directly from the real life Sprint Race series (that is very close on other rules, as racing time).
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------

    REQUEST: @Micropitt offered to run the server, but he lives in USA and most of the drivers (by far) are in Europe. So, any of you in the Old Continent can run the server? It would be nice to have some spare servers (even Micropitt's) because "who knows", but by a matter of lag, it would be better if created in Europe.

    We also need someone to run the random track picking before each stage. I can do it, but if anyone else really want this responsibility, I will not complain and happily let you do it.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------

    That is it. The first part of this post will be fixed at the OP and a Steam community call will be posted, linking to this topic.

    Cheers!

    Looks good. I'm just not a big fan of that random track picking. Why not just assign all tracks to the race days upfront and be done with it? In my case, I know 3 out of the 6 tracks and probably need some time to practice on the ones I don't know.

    The idea of surprise felt good. But if you folks want fixed stages, I can do it... ill just use the voting... the most voted tracks to the end... would be something like Jerez, Cascais, Adelaide, Imola, Suzuka, Interlagos. Maybe an opening stage at Interlagos and the end at Suzuka.

    That's not possible yet, unfortunately.
    What we do at RD is have a 5 minute superpole qualifying session between races, works well.

    Well... standard grid them.

    Give the car a try. It's not my favorite, but is capable of deliver good close races.

    Welcome!
