Another season of my long distance competition is back!

If you want to make your own prototype for this competition, check OP1 Specification.
The only difference from 2016 is about car physics so you can just update your car from previous season.

OP1 cars allowed for Season 2017: Competition website is going to be updated in the near future.


You can sign up this competition writing in this topic a new post with:

Have you thought about a refreshing point system? Something new:

Let's reward a winner with 100 points and other drivers with

Code: Select all

98 - D * L
where D is distance multiplier (4 for 24h, 2 for 12h and 1 for 6h races) and L is number of laps behind winner. Moreover maybe only best 4 results form first 5 races and best 4 form last 5 will be counted?

That would change a lot, especially for people who occasionally have to skip a round.

e.g. I have finished 4 laps behind Gzehoo who won Sebring 12h then I'm getting 90 points

To be honest, I'm not a fan of systems where e.g. best 8 of 10 results in season are counted - especially in case of one driver finishing every race very high but losing with another one who didn't finished or didn't start in these 2 races which he didn't have counted.
It's almost the same like decreasing the number of races from 10 to 8.

But if I understand well - let's see on Castelloli 6h 2016 results and your proposition:

Code: Select all

P. DRIVER          LAPS   POINTS
1. Kuba            34     100
2. Gzehoo          33      97
3. Marcinho        33      97
4. Trigger Happy   33      97
5. DanRos          32      96
6. Sartalas        32      96
7. darkracer99     30      94
EDIT: + Sebring 12h and Nurburgring 24h

Code: Select all

SEBRING 12h 2016
P. DRIVER          LAPS   POINTS
1. Kuba            85     100
2. Gzehoo          83      94
3. RobertRacer     81      90
4. Marcinho        81      90
5. Sartalas        81      90
6. DanRos          78      84
7. Madd Dogg       78      84
8. StingerTheRaven 73      74
9. EA piova        72      72

NURBURGRING 24h 2016
P. DRIVER          LAPS   POINTS
1. Gzehoo          196    100
2. Kuba            195     94
3. RobertRacer     191     88
4. Marcinho        187     80
5. DanRos          186     78
6. Sartalas        186     78

@up

2016 OP1 cars are available to use, but carmaker needs to make an update about physic - it's changed a little bit in 2017.

Poll added for the topic.

It's about Kuba's proposition for point system.

Re: GRChA International Endurance Series - Discussion & Sign

Kuba's preposition has a problem with giving out the same number of points for multiple drivers. It'd be better if each position would have basic points given out (100 for first, 98 for second, 95 for third, 93 for fourth etc.) then with 98 for everyone apart the winner.

Also, the problem stays that if it would reward being close to the leader, it'd still have a flaw in situations where the drivers in second and third are 1 second away, but because the leader is between then (meaning that it has lapped the third, but not the second), the second gets much more points then the third while in a other race, where the second and third are 20 seconds between each other but still within the same lap, they would get the same number of points (or, in my system, the third would get more points in this scenario then in the first one).

That's a vote for the classical system from me.

OP1 Specification updated as I wrote car's height wrong (it's only about Herbal's OP1 car).

Luckily, Stallion and Storm don't need to be updated.

BTW. Lambda PN4, the winner of Autopolis 6h and Nurburgring 24h from previous season, is available for other teams.
Lambda PN5 will be an 'exclusive' car for factory team.

I'll enter as a constructor with IEM OP1/17, but I have a question if rear wing pillars are allowed like this one:

Image

NOTE: The rear wing is at -2,1 and also the center part of the rear is pushed rather than being flat

Rear wing pillars are allowed.

BTW. I'm on vacations and will back at home for sure this weekend, and I'll prepare also login for Laguna Seca 4h and Sebring 12h. I'll check the rest of cars (if uploaded after compo pack) and update IES website.

Also, I decided that in this season results from 12h and 24h races won't be counted for Amateur classification. If you want to join and be focused only on 6h races ;)

The IEM OP1-17 is the new OP1 challenger in the IES 2017. Design-wise the car has radical shape and marks a departure from the traditional OP1 car design. One of the most notable aero features is the rear wing pillars.

I've done my run just now, got pretty bamboozled in the corkscrew once and lost 4+ seconds in the haybale. Tricky corner but fun :bg:.
Hopefully Katy will have better luck in the second Storm :D.
