11 drivers can attent. (thats just the startinggrid !)
I want to keep 1 slot open for the person who wants to stream the race(s).

Race 'Weekend' Format
Racing days (see below)
5 week long season
3 races per class, Same track per class
If more then 11 drivers attend we split the field up into 2 By doing a "sprint" race. the top 50% will form field A and the rest field B.
First race will be a random grid order as there is no qualifying to race option.
Race 2 will be reverse order of Race 1 result. Race 3 will be reverse order of Race 2 result.
Race Classification
1st - 15 points
2nd - 12
3rd - 10
4th - 8
5th - 6
6th - 5
7th - 4
8th - 3
9th - 2
10th - 1
Fastest Lap = 1 pt
Wrapping up the season
In case we end up with people with the same amount of points, we do a 1v1 of 1v1v1 etc.

Due to current life-conditions I would be unable to stream the event but would definitely like to race against fellow GoL members. :P
Otherwise I don't stand a chance
Thats actually a nice amount of people ! I will set it up in the last week of december after everybody has had a change too get it (hopefully).
Im thinking about setting it up with 3 classes every week. So everybody can have their fill.
touring C
openwheel C
classic mini cup (hello fenix2412)
Suggestions ?
I set it up to 5 weeks, 3 classes .
In some competitions they keep the X highest scores of all your attempts. We could do this too.
So for example we have 5 racing days (or whatever you wanna call them) planned and we only count the 3 highest scores you got. That way you can miss 2 days and still end up high.
As a consequence the less people show up, the bigger the chance that you get some good points.
Anybody got a problem with that ?
Are we using Steam to play?
If so, is there a way to play if I'm not on Steam?
