Well, this time you are wrong: I'm not spending much time on training since I'm busy and I'm not sure to make it at that time and at that day. I will run for the 5th place if I will make it.

you guys convinced me to make another point system
its the moto gp point system only bit changed so that 16 people get points

here it is:

25 21 17 14

12 11 10 9

8 7 6 5

4 3 2 1

and about fuel ... lets see in the first race and afterwards we decide changings

Is it so hard making a race test and try to see what happens? Yesterday we tried it for two times and it was completely sucky. 20 seconds is much better and realistic.

I too would like to see a longer refueling time. It makes it easier to plan a strategy because the slower the car refuels, the closer you can get to your intended fuel load on a pitstop.

well i have to agree with ben decision!!!
There should be people who trained hard with that fuel setting and we can t change them now....(see other cups...right mike?

)

Tomorrow we have to race with that settings and hope to have fun.
I have serious lag problems in every servers and this may cause huge problems to me....

If mike comes 1st place is taken....lots of pilots will challenge for position number 2 instead

Allright, seems it is the mainboard making trouble again :S
I already installed TS here with the licence of my cousin.
Though i did not get [GER]Mike Nike with the right hash values working so far.
When i checked the race information today and saw for my first time there will be 2 races AND the startorder for the 2nd race is reversed race positions...well...then making the 1st place in race 1 does not mean to get the first place in total...

The TSM Toca Season showed that 20 sec of fuel fill time can be good for tactics. Example: stopping shorter or longer to: avoid traffic or: to be able to win tight vs a similar fast driver...
In only 5 seconds time to stop, there won't exist many strategies.
Otherwise there won't be so much traffic in the usually relative thin/small (?) pits.
Another, actually not so relevant aspect: drivers with a wonderful little fuel consumption (dede

) would have a less high advantage the lower the fuel fill time would be.
I cannot remember practicing with these fuel settings, but wether i do not like them so much, i would prefer to keep the fairness to those (less?) people (if there are some), who already practiced with the settings -> both races on tuesday with 250,5,.. fuel settings.

Uhm.. nothing changes.. fuel settings are the same, you just stop for 20 seconds instead of 5 seconds. And, Mike, your consumption is linked to the way you drive, though this time I will gain something like 1% every 100% because of the car... Playing with these settings it's completely unuseful.

If you stop 20 sec instead of 5 sec..this, depending on a few things, should be a change you have to care about. Some people who would usually prefer to stop 2 times (30 laps? 100% fuel means max 12 laps?), now probably prefer to stop 3 times to avoid traffic in the pits, for example or to be more able to change the strategy during the race.
In the TSM Season we liked the rule that cars going into the pits should drive as far as possible to: let space for other cars entering the pits and to avoid getting pushed by cars entering the pits. It would not wonder me if cars get pushed in the pits, if they stop too early in the pitzone. In one kart track i can remember, the width of the pitzone was big enough for only 2 cars side by side. This could offer additional troubles in some cases

Where was this said? I must have missed it i guess...though i read this topic and the website for this league very well...

Either way, i am happy to hear about 2 races anyway, there is not as much pressure anymore.

See you all in 4 hours!
