If you have any suggestions or ideas about the schedule, you can post it here. In an other topic, Bandes made a suggestion about a new schedule. Let's make his suggestion as a startingpoint. Here it is: --------------------------------- Bandes' suggestions: Track Track Car Laps Date 1. BL1 Blackwood GP FBM 40L or 1. BL1R Blackwood GP Rev XFR+UFR 36L 2. AS1 Aston Cadet UF1 40L 3. SO4 South City Long FOX 25L or 3. SO6 South City Chicane FBM 25L 4. FE2 Fern Bay Green FOX 40L or 4. AS1R Aston Cadet Reverse FBM 40L 5. KY2 Kyoto Ring National FXR 29L 6. SO5 South City Town XFG+XRG 27L 7. KY1 Kyoto Oval FZR 57L 8. AS2 Aston Club MRT 40L or 8. SO1 South City Classic MRT 40L 9. BL1 Blackwood GP XFG+XRG 29L 10. AS7 Aston North FOX 25L lapnumbers are not fully calculated for new combos yet. so, bl1 fbm should be instead of fe3 fbm. because fbm is hard to drive, it should be on a track which everyone probably knows well. and by the way if we have xfg bl1 as a classic race, we should have fbm bl1 too. 3.race instead of Weshill fox, which is ok, but it could be south city long which is a great track also. 4.race should be with some different car. thats why 3. 4. have two options : fox - fbm, or fbm - fox. but if we have already bl1 fbm, then we should might go other car than fbm, maybe not formula, or we could have fo8 on a relatively easy track. 5. race is ok. 6.race well i am not into that, but others probably want that anyway so i dont thought alternative for that. 7.race, if we go oval, we should take a car which is like nascar. and fzr is close to that. 8.race, i think these two combos for mrt are much safer than the high curbs of fern bay. we remember what happened to 25 starters. about 4 finished, first 2 in one lap. it was a mayhem. 9. well i wont start on that anyway, guess thats not to change for others.. 10. i think we should go to aston north, which does not have that tough and hard chicane which aston national has.

With the proposed schedule for S2L I don´t see any reason why a S2L racer should join FOR as well since he already has like 5 open wheel races. The thinking behind the 1 combo is that maybe some racers will like it and then join FOR. Instead maybe some races with FXO, XRT, RB4, (FZ5, RAC, LX4)? | ||

I am not sure about MRT races.. they tend to be crazy  With suggested I like these 1. BL1R Blackwood GP Rev XFR+UFR (fantastic! )2. AS1 Aston Cadet UF1 But rev this year for a little change? 5. KY2 Kyoto Ring National FXR 6. SO5 South City Town XFG+XRG (pick just one XRG now for example, otherwise NO ONE will drive xrg.. )7. KY1 Kyoto Oval FZR -- if you feel brave then go ahead  other way no no from me I miss at least LX4, more mini-GTR (NGT), XRG, and TBO races  (Westhill rev)Will you change schedule if Rockingham will come one? So last race could be VWS @ ROCx ps: Jeez, do my posts always look like yellow something? [ Edited Sat Jul 24 2010, 05:48PM ] | ||

riel Registered Member #174 Joined: Thu Sep 04 2008, 04:58PMPosts: 715 | I Agree with Mich mostly so here is my version of it, tweaked it again a bit to bring more variety and less formula (it suxx for AB races in S2 due to bad practice and handling): 1. BL1R Blackwood GP Rev XFR+UFR Great! 2. AS1 Aston Cadet UF1 REV! 3. AS2 with LX4 4. FERN BAY GREEN FOX 5. AS3 Aston National FXR 6. SO5 South City Town XRT !! 7. KY1 Kyoto Oval FZR -- if you feel brave then go ahead other way no no from me 8. SO1 MRT (great!) 9. WESTHILL NGT 10. rally event BL2 RB4 & BL2 XRG and both R 10 laps each. Ola, with a rally to finish it Smileyheaven. Agree with you mostly! Not soo much formularacing. We have more cars in S2L ! S2 should use the S2 arsenal! I remove FXR from Kyoto, it's so boring. Make it FXR on Aston National. Really good AB combo. R5 GTT LFS S2 | ||

I am not confident on 9 and 10. I would like a RAC race but it's maybe too hard on any combo. lx4 on as2 was great last time,remember? For race one: Also think of using Baby-UFR, it's 45% restricted but it's still pretty good going, lots of grip and great fun! Try it. [ Edited Sun Jul 25 2010, 12:08PM ] R5 GTT LFS S2 | ||

| Registered Member #593 Joined: Fri Jan 08 2010, 11:18AMPosts: 32 | Well my opinion is to keep the FXR race at KY2 since I had the best race of this season there. It also provides a good opportunity for overtaking (you have a good entrance on the oval, you manage an overtaking). I would also take out the MRT race since on that bumpy track you do a slight mistake, you're out. And I would put a GT car instead of an XFG+XRG race since I find the XFG races really boring Beside this I trust in the admins here to make a good mix from our opinions and make the championship as spicy as possible Calin | ||

 Registered Member #310 Joined: Tue Feb 10 2009, 04:27PMLocation: Szeged, Hungary Posts: 172 | Everyone wrote his own thougths, so here are my concepts: Main aspect should be that this is a BEGINNER league. We need a schedule that suits the most newbie drivers. Talented pilots could move toward FOR and LEM leagues, so keep S2L a beginner league. Create a schedule that helps the players. 1. No single-seater races! Maybe only the BL1@FBM combo assuming we all did numerous laps with this demo combo. We have a Formula leage, and it's completely unneccesary to include those cars in S2L. (Anyway, i don't agree with that everyone can race in the FOR leage who completed 3 S2L races. But it's an other thing...) 2. No rallies. This would be a special race event that needs different driving style than you drive on "normal" races. 3. We need to practice with a new car on a new track from race to race. What if we use same slower cars like UF1, XFG, XRG in two races one after an other. For example, event N and N+1 both XFG/XRG races on different tracks. 4. More races with the slower cars. This means closer races. 5. No oval races. I'm not the only one who thinks these races are not fun. Boring races with unnecessary safety car... 6. Only one race in South City. Hard track. One mistake and you will be out. Maybe You will cause big trouble with only one wrong move... So considering the points above the schedule should be something like this: 1st: BL1 @ XFG/XRG - A classic demo combo, a good warmup race for the season. 2nd: AS1 @ UF1 - We had this combo in the previous seasons, and it was always exciting. Maybe we can use AS1R instead of AS1 3rd: FE1 @ UF1 - Same car as in the previous event, we need to learn only the track. 4th: FE2 @ XRT/RB4/FXO - You can choose from three cars for a track that has same overtaking points. 5th: SO5 @ XRT/RB4/FXO - You practiced with this car int he previous event. You "only" need to practice the track. A race in the town in middle of the season. Great challenege. 6th: WE1 @ FXR/XRR/FZR - Fast track, fast cars. Starting the second half of the season with something new. 7th: KY2 @ FXR/XRR/FZR - Keeping the speed. 8th: AS7 @ XFR/UFR - After seven races we saw something. Here is a track with several corners and two new cars to choose from. 9th: AS3 @ XFR/UFR - Same cars on a much easier track. 10th: FE3 @ XFG/XRG - Season ending with the well-knonw cars on an 8-shaped track. Well, that's it. I know changing track and cars from race to race brings some variety and a new challenge from week-to-week. This is something different and if You want, You can always choose from at least two cars (except the UF1 races). AS7 and SO5 are tricky tracks that will bring excitement to the season. This schedule ignores the most disputed things like: Formula cars, MRT mayham at FE1, Oval racing. Just to make it clear: I like formula racing, mrt, and rally too. So if you can not accept this schedule, no problem for me, but for a new inexperienced player. What do You think?
