OK. Login for Tests Qualifying Session is ready. I'll send now login and passwords for all. If there will be any problem please write.

BTW:

(...)
One question: in qualifying, what does "without additional laps" mean? Does that mean that the laps after time expires don't count?

Yes. If you start making your best lap after time expires it won't be counted.

[XYY]

What about the lap which you start within the time but which ends after the time expires?

[Gzehoo]

You can finish your lap after time expiring if you started it before time expiring, but after expiring you can't start new lap.

[XYY]

So all laps except the last two count. Thanks for help

Btw, could you please also add the information (such as rules, calendar, settings) to the first post? I always have to scroll down to find that stuff...

[Gzehoo]

OK, I corrected first post.

BTW. Deadline for Q is on Friday at 23:59 (Central Europe Time).

[XYY]

Just made my test quali, but please tell me if I was late I searched like 2.5 minutes for the email address...

[FRUKIScze]

Where are the results from Qualification? Will you update it soon?

[Gzehoo]

Results will be today. I'll write if the login for Race is ready.

[Gzehoo]

OK, there are results from Test Qualifying Session.

And there is new table with your fuel settings for race (you have to change it in game).

BTW. In Qualifying session you have only 2 minutes for make your best lap. It means that when 2 minutes in game expires, you have to finish your current lap, make a screenshot with results and save your game. Please don't drive these 2 additional laps in Q because it could be confusing for me. Normally you can drive 5 laps in 2 minutes on Guangdong but with more laps I can't say when you made your best lap (on this additional laps or earlier). But there are only tests so I didn't give any penalties today. In the season there will be penalties for starting your lap after time expiring.

[FRUKIScze]

My results are what I expected. Guandgong isn't my favourite track and I can't hit Apex every time. btw. Volcano motorsport without pitstops, so let's go!!!

Thanks for making this clear.

[...]It means that when 2 minutes in game expires, you have to finish your current lap, make a screenshot with results and save your game.[...]

So:

• --> time expires

• --> finish lap you began

• --> press [ESC], "End race"

• --> results screen pops up, press F12 for a screenshot

• --> press [ESC] again and save the replay

• --> end race and send files

Is that correct or should we do it any other way?

[puttz]

AI's!!!!!!! Wrecked me multiple times, and forced me to pit to repair damage. And then a second self inflicted pit stop after trying too hard to make up time.

[Gzehoo]

--> time expires
--> finish lap you began
--> press [ESC], "End race"
--> results screen pops up, press F12 for a screenshot
--> press [ESC] again and save the replay

Exactly that

[Gzehoo]

I forgot to write: Deadline for Race is at 23:59 (CET), but results will be tomorrow.

I also forgot to write that in tests there is night Race, but it's my mistake - at last days I'm some busy and I don't have a time to write all informations about compo. So there won't be a penalties for wrong palette because I forgot to write about changing palette (on Night) for Race. But on the website I'll write the GTT rules and update calendar.

[Spacethingy]

I think I did something wrong, the AI were completely uncompetitive in a straight line. I also assumed I started last, but the grid looked weird. Sorry!

[FRUKIScze]

You didn't do anything wrong. AIs have his own bot car and this cars are much slower. That's the reason, why i took AIs overlap.

[Reh]

I also assumed I started last, but the grid looked weird.

And the thing here is that you get a track file with the login, which is matched for your start position. So when you choose your driver as first driver as you normally do, you'll start automatically in the right position. Thats also why the track name has your start position in it. I had to get it myself first, you can check it by using the track editor.

[Spacethingy]

Ah. Start first, not last. OK! (I wondered what the 9 was for...)
