Dan,

I wachted them - nice stuff

btw
Are there no pitting rules in the ESL (except the pit open /pit closed thing)?
(i.e. crossing the white or yellow pitlines?)
 

Dave,

You are not the first person I have heard to say this, I hope certain things will be solved before the new EPS season starts.

Other than a few bad apples, I think we all get along and have a great nights racing every 2 weeks, but yeah, you are right, practice time can be hard to come by, I worked VERY hard last weekend on trying to develop a setup and learn the track, and my sprint race was ruined in the first turn, very frustrating.

And yes, the FXO is maybe a little slower, although with some setup tweaks I managed to get my time back to pre-patch times.

Dan,

As this is a serious league, its also a practice event for getting ready for EPS as with EPS things cannot go wrong.  Its a majorly sponsored event, with some big names in there ( Abit and E-Frag Servers ) being just 2 I can name at the moment  

Rules will change, as well as pitting procedures and other things.  Hence why I cannot join your league Dan, as I will be spending all my time devising the league, and promoting it.

With all the database problems we have had, its hard to promote a Professional run league and convince people to part with their money when the results cannot be upto date, but I will plug away.

Driver side will be set at the beginning of the season, as well as Car choice ( looking at a multi field choice again, not open wheel )

Will be looking to start in about July / August time.  It will run for 6 months.  Then after the six Months, the top 10 drivers Qualify for the Finals.  Now this maybe at a destination somewhere in the UK ( to be confirmed as yet ) or might be shown live over the net.

The Finals consist of 3 races.  Who ever scores the most points of these 3 races is crowned UK EPS Champion.  So in fact, there is to leagues.  One is to qualify in the top 10, then go on and win it.

Now as we don't run a EAS season, we don't have a qualification period, and the ability for people to drop down or get promoted up, so what I am going to do, is the top 10 from this season, Automatically Qualifiy for the EPS Season.  Still have to pay for it ( who ever wins it, gets a free season   ) but from 11 downwards, these will have to be qualified for.

Thats just some of the details I can release atm.

We are finishing this season first Bernd.  EPS is later in the year.  Well our problem was a little problem compared to what happened.  basically 12 SCSI drives decided one day, thats it, they had had enough and all said bugger off to the operating system.

So they decided to repair from the backup, and then something else went wrong.  it was one of those situations where you fix 1 problem, and another crops up.

Its all fixed and repaired now, and the reason its taken so long, is the traffic you have to go through to find the right person.  Now we know the right people, I have a One way street.

This won't happen in EPS, because, I have NOW got the proper guidelines of how things actually work.  Problem was I was trying to enter the results manually by adding in the points.  But no, Database doesn't like that.  Here's why



See if I knew that 1 month ago, it would of been fixed, but it was just trying to find the right person for the answer
