As the number of drivers competing in Delta events continues to grow, multiple lobby's are going to become common place. In order for us to keep the night flowing quickly and smoothly please take some time to have a look at this guide which will hopefully familiarize your with the way our LIVE RESULTS spreadsheets work.
Time can be saved for all if drivers competing know where to find there QUALIFYING LOBBY'S, know there HOSTS GT, and can find out who there RACE HOST IS.
all this information is easily found and can be tracked LIVE on the LIVE QUALIFYING AND RESULTS THREADS. This can be easily accessed from a laptop, tablet or mobile phone, during race night and all drivers are URGED to have this open.
please find some graphical guides in this thread to explain the spreads sheets further
Please note the following to make the racing as slick as possible.
The link in the top menu named "Supermini Live Qualifying and Results" will take you direct to the Supermini Live qualifying and results; click on the tab that relates to this race.
You will notice a new feature above the Qualification table; the LOBBY STATUS. The Status will change when; the lobby is open; when qualifying has begun; when lap times are being inputted and finally, when the drivers have been sorted into the respective lobby for Race 1.
Once you see this status, you can then join your lobby host. This is a trial feature which will hopefully improve drivers awareness of what's happening with the lobbies. Feedback is encouraged guys
Because Forza 7 does not currently include the 'Manual Grid Ordering', at the start of the race, the lobby host (DOR STEVE911 ot DOR YelloCactus Lobby B) will call forward drivers in order.
When your name is called, drive down the middle of the grid slowly and make your way back around to the start grid.
Odd numbers on the right, even numbers on the left.
Grid boxes are marked out or 25m between drivers
The last man on the grid is to inform the lobby host when he is in position.
The lobby host will state which time the race will begin, using the game clock. Please don't look at the lap time or else you won't have the best stat to your race!
Following Race 1, the bottom 5 from Lobby A will be relegated to Lobby B and the top 5 from Lobby B will be promoted to Lobby A for Race 2.
Enjoy
