i donno what time the real race will be, but maybe we can do our Race right after ReaL F1,

[Craig Cookson]

The real F1 race starts 2 hours before the NAR Euro race, so it will be finished in time. Might be better to delay NAR race by half an hour or so just to have a bit of time in between.

[Coffeemachine]

I think we should run the race earlier, so that we miss all of the real gp!

[Jools]

I think we should put coffeemachine in a washing machine and stick it on spin cycle

But you shouldn't always listen to what people think

[CarlMcDonald]

I always download the BBC feed after the race hehe hehe.. I cant stand Pierre Houde and the other guy.

Agree u pal cos we will be cold if we start the nar race just after the real race, need sum time to warm as u said.

[dutch power]

Yeah i think to race can start little bit later, i think we always did this in the past moving it with like 30 mins.

Also i would like to put up another discusion, cant we make the Q a bit shorter to something like 15 minutes. I think thats long enough for 6 laps right? I mean mostly during q people start to ask those who have laps left if they are ready or not lol. If we make q 15 minutes then its quicker done and we dont have to wait so long hehe, 30 mins is to long i think.

[SteveB]

Why don't you guys run your QUALY SESSION before the REAL CANADIAN GP.

Then when the real F1 race is over all you have to do is start from your 10 minute warm up session
during this time Ingo or "G" can edit the grid.

Just a suggestion.

I completely agree.

Good Idea Dutch, 15 maybe 20 more than enough,

[SteveB]

Ya I forgot about that dumb parc ferme

[Bilbo]

15 minutes could be a little short for some tracks (think of the likes of Spa & Singapore at close to 2 minutes per lap), especially if you're doing your laps in more than 1 stint, although we're generally done under 20 minutes (in NA div at least) unless someone has connection problems or such.

Just remember that the session is set for a maximum of 30 minutes but it can be switched to warmup and/or race earlier, particularly if everybody agrees beforehand to not wait too much to start doing their laps and especially for an exceptional situation like this weekend when the race is delayed a bit already.

A little communication and some goodwill from everyone always makes things go smoother...

[Coffeemachine]

i vote for 15, ive said this since we started with this format. I struggle to see the point of 30 when every race your done under 10, at which point one or two drivers for whatever reason still hasnt gone out...so everone just has to wait.

to disagree a bit with bilbo , your forgetting about skipping inlaps hence the maximal time is 5 laps x 2 min = 10 min. !! more than enough time!

also, it would be fun to have a "avoid traffic" factor in it all.....but im not sure i have a vote since i rarely drive in that session

[Fred]

Since 15 minutes and 20 minutes are up for discussion, I propose a session of 17 minutes and 30 seconds

17 minutes and 30 seconds is far to long

I suggest 17 minutes

You are right. Still, my main point was that it is easier to manually switch to the next session than to extend the session you're in (which you can't, AFAIK) for some reason, like if someone has connection problems.

Back to the original subject, when is the euro div. race, finally?

WHAAAAAATT THE FUUUUUCKKKKKKK

You are so quick that mr Alien Nilson only needs 2 minutes to complete his 6 laps.

lets just make it track dependant so that its exactly what alien-fred needs from green lights to 2 laps, then add 2 seconds
