F1 1991 Fun race @ Hockenheim [Sept 2nd]

I see no race scheduled for Sept 2nd.

Anybody up for a 1991 F1 somewhere fun? Hockenheim (like we just ran in interseries) or other?

Dibs on the 2nd Williams car if so

-Mike

Edit: and the race should be short or even 2 or 3 really short races so those who break apart can come back again (me mostly )

HOTLAPS

Why not, I can launch the server with 15min qualifying and 10 laps races or something like this, but this won't be considered as official HSO races.

I'm still yet to drive these, so I'd be in favour

I'm not sure if i will be at home if i am i will try and make it

Just tell me what track you want guys.

Why not Interlagos?

Edit: ah yes Hockenheim sounds nice too

Magny Cours or Monaco? Shame no Paul Ricard

Absent, je serai sans doute encore à Bruxelles déménager ma fifille !

present
Interlagos or Imola...only my 2 cents

Absent ce week end

i would also be up for it.

should we run 1990 just for fun, so we have a taste for the new mod?



Tracks:
as tracks, i love this hockenheim, but maybe it is no track for overtaking in F1? (unless close chase doesnt ruin the aerodynamics of the rear car, e.g. in the Ost-Kurve).

What tracks make good 1991 cars?
Estoril?
Aida?


if we are not many, Japanese tracks like (T)sugo or Ebisu would be great!
remember, it is only 10 laps or so what we will race.3 short runs with reverse grid always grant chance for anyone

quite all Circuits of the world:

Ebisu

Tsukuba is a great track: http://theracingline.net/racingcircuits/Japan/Tsukuba.html

in case you dont know tsukuba, look this:

at 52s you will hear, where i have my Impossibru-face from

Hockenheim please Gui

10 laps and 15 min qual is perfect.

Would it be possible to launch an available cars section/official thread for it in the Interseries or Open events section? If so, put me down for the Williams 2nd car (not Mansell...I am too slow to be him..Senna fan club will be sending me thank you notes FYI).

Thanks,

Mike

We can run 2x 10 lap races so the races plus qual will be under 1 hour.

No formation lap, start from grid as in last 2 Open races.


Edit: in the other thread I said near 1:40s for the fast guys. WRONG. Prob 134s or 35s. I just ran a 1:40.9 in the Williams.

Nah no official topic or cars booking, its just for fun, you guys can take any car you want. We'll see if people can chose cars according to their level by themselves

OK, I can live with that.

Any chance of a "hot laps" link? (it is the only place I do not hit people)

Would one of you more experienced guys rate all the chassis A for fast B for middle C for slow?



As far as time (mods please edit as needed):

8PM Server launch/warmup (15 minutes)
8:15PM Qualification starts (15 minutes)
8:30PM Start of Race 1 (~15 minutes) -- no warmup lap -- 10 laps
8:45PM Restart race
8:45PM Start of Race 2 (~15 minutes) -- no warmup lap -- 10 laps

HSO91 password. Same server as F1 1991 races?

The mod is incomplete unfortunately

18 Lambo 291- 1:22.427 (peaky engine, very understeery, reacts pretty slowly)

However, the cars will probably react very differently to different circuits. I would expect the times from Spa would be more relevant for Hockenheim

we could try to guess the values from spa, its more like Hockenheim.


ah, i would rather say 3x 15 minutes because 2 is not fun and therefore we skip practice.

why?
i would have shortened quali to 5 minutes that would be great, so u have some surprises. the perfect guys slow, the slow guys decent. we already know the track.

but as in 1967 we can use praccy = quali

8:00 Forum call "server launched"

8:02 Quali 15mins
8:17 quali ends

8:20 15mins / 8 laps

8:40 15 mins

9:00 15 mins

dont forget that after race u have 2 mins lap out, you have grid build ... and all that so ur calculation is a bit tight --> so we will end up like your race but 3 heats.
2nd run full reverse grid
3rd run only top 6 reverse grid


anyone seen the Tsukuba track in my video above? it is just awesome to race, i raced it once iwth Carsten Theile

I'll arrive on the evening without any training, I already know the track but not the cars. Which one should be the easiest, and not be a slow-ass car?

I think the Minardi is pretty neutral, not very fast but definitely not slow

Maybe there for the race

Cool, my favourite team

You can pretty much take your car from Spa and increase 6th gear (make the number larger) by 1 or 2 notches and it will be driveable.

Jens at race time if people want a 3rd race there shalt be a 3rd race.

I like the reverse idea grid from Jens

I'd prefer short qualifying session between each races, so that people can change car if they want to.

How can that be done Gui?

Will you or another admin be there to reset (and possibly grab the race results?)

Multiple qual sessions sounds good. Maybe just 2 races, and 2 qual sessions?

So is this race just a matter or turning up on the night??

Which I.P address is it again???

hey we can downgrade winners

so wubbers must take a slower car
