A proper race weekend proposal

[Seven]

In Live For Speed I've never seen a 1-hour long qualifier from any event I've had a part of. The longest I've seen is 30 minutes and even that was a push, everyone was comfortable by the 15 minute mark meaning anything over than 20 minutes is probably (as JoRuss said) a waste of time. The best racers in LFS usually get very near (or on) their PB within the first 5 minutes as most will warmup before coming on the server or even ON the server before the event start. Even the outlap-hotlap-hotlap-inlap format used in events like the Kyoto 250 works well.

I think the PB limitation is possibly a bit strict as well, in long sprint/enduro racing it's not just about how fast you are, but how consistent you are. You can be DrifteaCent on the track but if you're not consistent you can find yourself killing tires, fuel, etc. Perhaps PB 1:35 would suffice? I'm not the fastest racer, I only recently set a new PB after 2 years.

As for timing, anything after next week is fine by me. A good two week's notice should be enough as not many people check the forums really, but this can always be fixed with an automated message featuring the event in-game.

Nice idea - I haven't done border-line enduro stuff for a while. I'm not skilled enough in a GTR / TBO to sign up to one of the S2 leagues.
