rFactor Winter Race Series featuring High Plains Raceway
High
Plains Raceway is Colorado's newest track, scheduled to open in Spring,
2009.
Located
near Byers, CO, the track is 2.55 miles long and has elevation changes
upwards of 75'.
All
the information you could want, including a real race schedule, is located
at http://www.highplainsraceway.com.
Hundreds
of volunteers and contributors have been working hard to get the track
built, but since our local racers just can't wait to race, we have built a
track simulation to run using rFactor,
and will have an online winter race series!
(The pavement is down, but it's winter now and we are letting the asphalt
cure.)
You
can certainly practice on your own computer for fast laps or against the
computer cars, or even log on to the server any old time and run against
whoever might be there, but we will also have organized evenings
where you can compete against your old buddies for winter bragging rights.
Schedule:
Listed
below.
The
server will be available continuously, but on race evenings, there will be
a formal 60 minute practice and 15 minute qualifying sessions. The race
time listed below is the time that qualifying starts.
Cars
used:
Will
vary from event to event. See schedule.
Series
Points (taken from Trackpedia league):
Points will be awarded for finishing order. With first place winning a
total number of points equal to the total number of starters in the event.
For example if 8 people participate then we will have 8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1.
Each position pays points. Fastest Lap also wins a point and qualifying on
pole wins a point.
Total end of year points will be added together out of
everyone's top races dropping their two lowest point totals for the
season. All fastest laps and qualifying points will be applied no matter
when they are won.
