We have racing rules - race like a gentleman and don't knock other drivers off-track especially on the first lap. If you do accidentally knock someone else off into the undergrowth - you must stop as soon as safety permits and wait for that car to regain the track and continue its race ahead of you
If you sustain aero damage to your car in the course of the race you must pit and repair the damage. No cars will be allowed to race with major bodywork (ie. front end & splitter) missing. You should pit on the next available lap to repair the damage. We will review the replays after the race and anyone found to be driving with significant damage may be disqualified.
The general league rules can be found and read here: https://rslesports.com/community/faq/rsl-league-rules/
No Chat in Qualifying or the Race please. The only permitted chat in race is asking for a restart and only within the first lap.
Drivers are reminded that grievances and issues are not to be aired in a manner that creates friction in public - if you have a problem send a private message or discuss it with an Admin member.
If for any reason you cannot make the race please state below in the thread, so you car can be used by someone else.
Restarts will be at the sole discretion of the server administrator but generally there will not be any.

The actual 12-hours begins at 10:40 -- four and a half hours earlier than that. Starting at 15:10 will make it night almost before we begin.
I am sure Stuart will set it as it should be Ron, I did the post before I knew it was 10x and to be honest I didn't have the time to do it properly as I was at work and it was a bit of a rush job. Cheers J

Yeah, the server is set for race start at 10:30. I assume that will be when the formation lap begins, so we may be just a little bit late on the start (at 6 seconds per minute) but not too bad. Driving this version of the track at night works OK. There are some issues like the fireworks start before sunset and look dark instead of bright until the actual sunset, and one light glow texture is not emissive so looks dark at night (does not affect the actual lighting; it's a cosmetic "glow" around one of the lights that is done incorrectly).
Love Sebring.. just something about the Florida sun, the palms, the lumpy concrete, all the race-fans in their Winniebagos, & the fact that it's an airfield 😎
Had a great race, decided to turn the main room light off when I pitted for tyres & fuel then I could see the track as it got darker 🤪
I like Sebring so much I did a painting of it, set in '66 with the sun going down -
Lovely Tony, a great painting 😀
