League Race this Friday night Sept 11, 2015

Thanks Duke.

Now you and Davey know how I felt racing with Tony at Spa in the GRA league. It's very exciting racing so close.

I think you have the fuel restrictions the wrong way around. We used 50% for the qualify race and 30% for the race (will be 55-60% for 60 minute races).

Ah ok, changed it.

Nice summary Duke. It looked like it worked out well. Mad I missed it but I had a friend over and he wanted to try iRacing out. So be thankful I didn't subject you to his driving haha.

Just one clarification on your post: You can ONLY pit early for repairs. You can take fuel and tires during an early pit, but you still are required to either drive through or take a FULL stop again in the window.

You should also clarify the penalty for pitting after the window closes (so if I were to pit after the 35th minute. Probably a drive through? Must be past the pit entrance before the 35th minute. etc

EDIT also should clarify that drive throughs must be served during the window.

We're going to have to consult the rule book on this one because I think the drive through penalties are pretty lenient in Blanpain Sprint. I thin the Driver has 3 laps in which to serve a drive through penalty but again, we'll have to confirm.

Exactly right about pitting for repairs. You can take tires and gas during this stop but if it's outside the small pit window you will need to serve a drive through penalty.

We'll confirm how soon but I'd suggest the drive through be served within 3 laps (to start) and we'll update once we've reviewed Blancpain Sprint rules.

I assume we're running this Friday night at Mid-Ohio. I'm not sure what you guys ran, time-wise, from last week, but can we try to run the full 50 minute (or whatever we decided) race after the quali race?

Darnit, I thought I posted about the League Race in another topic.

Ya, we'll be running Mid Ohio with a 20 minute Qualify Race and undetermined actual race, possibly 45 - 50 minutes.
