Good Evening,
I recently have been wanting to resurrect the racing series that Dinkleberg and Storm were starting a little while ago but ended up falling through. I would like to keep the rules he had previously set, but possibly change the racecourse setup and/or location. The classes I envision:
P51 Default
P51 A2A
L39
T45
Lancair Legacy
Open Class
These rules are taken from the original "Air Race Rules" thread.
RULES AND GUIDELINES ROUGH DRAFT
OFFICIALS
1 at start finish to keep tabs on player positions over the line, catching multiple screen-shots of all racers crossing the line and put them in correct order
2 maybe 3 positioned around the course to eyeball laggers/cheats
1 announcer to comment on happenings during the race (gotta be Bob)
1 pace plane of different type that's larger than the racers and and much faster
RACE RULES
3 left-hand orbits above airport to form up on pace plane
3 laps
upon finishing your 3 laps, continue to the end of the runway then break off to the right
no more than 10 players per race
fuel and payload is player choice
if a critical issue occours that forces you to abandon the race, announce you have a problem then pull up and out of the race with "-player name- has failure, breaking off."
no slew during race unless emergency
fly with crash detection and player collision off, but all other realism on full
flying through somebody to maintain a line is inevitable, but don't stay in the same place longer than necessary
wideness of turns can't be excesivly large, pretty much turn and head straight for the next one
Please leave me your opinions/suggestions. Thanks!
