Best Regards, Kirill.D.
There won't really be any proving test. We'll take the 10 teams we think will best represent the series.
That said, I'd like to talk to you (Kirill) on MSN if you've got the time.

We (Lublin Racing Team) are a bit disappointed that there will not be any qualifying race or qualifications to enter this league because we probably will not get to it.
You probably do not know our team so well, or not even heard about us.
There are 22 teams that are waiting for 10 seats, I think that would be great if you give them/us a chance to prove/check our skills and then decide.
We hope that there will be any opportunity to show our skills to prove that we will fit well to your league?
Best regards, Sasek

You make a good point. Perhaps a (non-binding) 2-hour qualifying event is in order. I'll discuss it with the other admins and get back to you and the rest of the waiting teams.

In case of a qualifying event, wouldn`t it make more sense to have 3 drivers from each team put in a lap and take an average from those? It would give a better representation of the teams strength, than the laptime of one quick driver from a team. Just a suggestion, to avoid having a team with 1 competitive driver and the rest who can`t even keep the car on track - for example.

I agree with you, but it may extend all qualification procedure. If you take 3 drivers from 22 teams each, it may be hard to make and
may take very long time. I think that the 2 drivers will be enough.

I think the admins are perfeclty capable of picking the best teams for the remaining 9 spots. It's not only about speed, but maybe even more about dedication to the IGTC. So I guess teams will not only be taken for their speed, but also for their stability and motivation to race.

I guess thatīs the teams race number you mean here. TDRT would like to keep the 04 which is the same number as last year. Add. we finished 4th overall. I hope thatīs ok with you admins and Team Inferno as well. :thumbsup:

I was even doing some acrobatics, deleting our app and submitting it later to get the number I wanted for my team :razz: but didn't work, we are higher than expected. :tilt:
If it is possible to agree between teams for number swap, I might ask target number team to swap, only if it is OK with admins... :scratchch
But it really doesn't mean too much :D

Hehe, we don't care about numbers now. We just want so much to join this league that no matter what number we will get, we will be happy. :D
BTW. I think that the best option for you will be taking numbers from the position you take place in the previous season. Just like in F1.

TBH I wouldn't think that speed would be really what the admins are looking for (well, yes, but not primarily IMO), they'll be more looking for consistency, obeying the rules, dedication and a general sense that the team is really 'going for it' if you like.

Race numbers are like that simply because it's easier for processing applications. The top 3 from last season get the numbers 1-3 respectively and the rest of the numbers are given in order of sign ups.
The remaining spots will be given to teams selected based on different things including speed, attitude and commitment. There will be a 2 hour race, probably around end of jan/begining of feb time which will help us select teams based on the criteria we set and monitor.

*** The astute observer will notice that these are all teams returning from last season. We will decide the remaining 9 spots between the teams who have applied but have not raced with us in the past. Expect the announcement of the additional accepted teams over the next week. ***
This means we still have the chance to race with you guys?

Yep, correct. We will likely have a 2hr race in the coming weeks so that the teams can show their stuff. Based on performance in that race, as well as some other factors, we will decide who gets the remaining 9 spots. :thumbsup:

i think first is first, the ones applicated earlier should be invited to the igtc...
the 2 hours race will only show the fastest, cause 2 stints of 1 hour doesnt say anything about all drivers in the team. this is why you have your waiting list, right? so please use it....
CSF
14th January 2009, 09:44

I am rather dumbfounded by that statement. If you had looked at last season's IGTC, one of the teams that were accepted last season did some fairly foolish things in one of the rounds, and had to withdraw from competition. All the organisers are trying to do by not putting through the teams that apply is testing that the teams that they do put through will not endanger or hinder the great racing that this series has produced in the past. The reason for the list as you see it there, is that the those teams drove last season to a standard that the admins are happy to let back in, as they know that they will represent the series in the right way.

Right, because looking at who signed up fastest shows so much about all the drivers on the team, right? ;)

Sorry, but while we appreciate eagerness to sign up it's not high on our list of qualities that define a good racing team. The "qualifying event" is just one element of what will eventually decide which teams get in. Other elements include, but are not limited to, the age/maturity of the team, the team's other enduro experience, general experience of its drivers, the way the team presents itself both on the track and on the forum, the team's likeliness to stay in the league throughout the whole season, and so on. So don't worry... doing poorly (in terms of finishing order) in the 2hr race won't necessarily strike you from contention.

The list of teams has been updated with those accepted for the season. :thumbsup:
Thanks to all teams for applying and for attending the test race!
We realize that not making the field is disappointing, and so we have added as many teams as we see fit to the waiting list. Teams on the waiting list may be promoted, one by one, to the season grid if a team currently on the grid drops out of the series. If your team's name does not appear on either list, we're sorry, but we do not feel that your team meets the IGTC's standards. If you wish to reapply in the future and be re-evaluated, that may be possible, at the admins' discretion.

You're on the waiting list in the 9th position, which means that you will enter the series if nine teams drop from the grid (or more quickly, if some teams ahead of you in the waiting list withdraw themselves).
Last season we had 14 teams from the waiting list join the series over the course of the season, so this is quite possible.

What happened in the test race to give you that feeling?

Not what, but how it's handeled. For starters they could post the results... Secondly the safety car period was questonable at least. I've never seen a sc deployed so slowly. Since there was a few admins around someone could have watched the rear end of the grid where everyone hit the brakes when the green flag went (?). On top of that they still haven't posted the results, nor have they replied to our question about which position we finished in since our calculation doesn't match the trackers.
DeadWolfBones
4th February 2009, 14:16
The tracker is accurate with the exception of Lightning Racing, who ran an extra lap in violation of our request to stop in T1 after the race. (Though I believe that was due to a teammate joining the track after the race had ended.) i.e., the tracker IS the results. Since this was not a points race, and was merely for the admins' evaluation purposes, we didn't feel it necessary to go through the motions of doing a spreadsheet and so on. Sorry.

Last season we had 14 teams from the waiting list join the series over the course of the season, so this is quite possible.
sry, but it was like a punch in our face, that P1-5 was accepted and some behind and the 6th place got only place 9 on the waiting list. so its like we were 15th....
i don't know which factors you were watching for.... but when i see the teamlist, its now MoE 2.
we are a bit disappointed because now we have no chance to get good place in the final ranking. and there is no guarantee to have an igtc race this year.

There is no rule saying that, but for the test race the MoE tracker was used, and that one doesn't stop recording after the race finishes (unlike the one used last season). That's the only reason you were asked to stop ;)

Some teams should better shut up because they are now showing that they did not understand what the test race was all about.
All teams that had a chance to race in this test race should be thankful for opportunity because it could have easily been that admins decided who to choose without the race, based only on previous results of team and their overall presentation in LFS so far. But they were kind enough to take their time, and to do event like this to give extra chance to some unproven teams.
Some of them done well with it, and showed their performance over the race. Some others thought that their presence in LFS would be enough and that showing in the race is not important, but it is not like that, so even I have erased some names from my provisional list after this race...
I'm positive that admins did their best and that they thought well about selecting teams. If you look my previous posts you will see that I was very much right who will get a place, I've mentioned some teams that did well and they got their spot. And I remind you that I'm not admin nor I can influence their decision. My judgment was very objective from that point and as I say it is very similar to admin decision so that leads us that their decision is objective too...
Congrats to selected teams, and to others, as a manager of one of the teams that joined last season in the middle of it, I suggest to keep an eye on IGTC because I'm sure some teams will get their chance in it...
See you on track!
P.S. I hear that there will be a feeder series you might also take a look into... :tilt:

But we will accept this decision by the admins! Thank you for the test race (was still a good expirience for me to drive this mode of racing like i organized the SHAC events in Germany 2007) and good luck to all competing teams.

On top of that they still haven't posted the results, nor have they replied to our question about which position we finished in since our calculation doesn't match the trackers.
I won't reply with respects to the results, but just one more thing that wasn't cleared up.
It's impossible for every part of the field to be monitored, especially during safety car periods. Infact most of the admins have a job during these periods, be it driving the safety car or preparing the insim app which had failed twice to work and is why the Safety car periods seemed to be called late, when infact the safety car was waiting at the end of the pit lane for the lead car to come round for about a minute. Also clearly a lot of teams hadn't read the rules properly or were not fully in control of their vehicles and hence haven't been accepted (not the only reason in some teams case).
Once again i must reiteratethat this is a test race and much like a game demo, is not representative of the way the league runs during the season.
I'm sorry your team didn't get through but it basically sounded like sour grapes to be honest.

I'd like to point out that some of Timo's comments within this thread are not the opinions of the rest of the SDF team. We (well, most of us seemed to) enjoyed the race very much and it certainly taught me alot about endurance racing. We're obviously disapointed but you might see us again.
The reason for the slight mishap in the results from our end was that I had miscalculated the number of teams with disconnects that actually had finished infront of us, aswell as the LR error, so I had us in 17th not 19th. :thumbsup:
Anyhow, GL with the rest of the series, I shall be watching you :smileypul
And hope to race with you again.
All the best
J@tko.
EDIT: Not wanting to start an argument, but Timo I think you should know how hard it is to actually admin a race, even with 100 admins things would probably not go smoothly, and insim errors and other things are right buggars to remedy, and tbh, these things just happen.

I'm sorry your team didn't get through but it basically sounded like sour grapes to be honest.
Ouch. That one's under the belt. I don't especially care if you take critisism well, just tell people beforehand so they'll know to save their efforts. Especially when one does have a point. I'm sort of tired of the "ur slow so stfu" -argument already today.
I'm sorry if I expected more that I should have. I thought it was a serious race with some kind of standard at least. And standard is what you should be holding on to. I'm afraid with that kind of attitude you'll piss off a lot more people than me. I'm just offended that you didn't take this race seriously since I did.
Oh btw: I did enjoy the race. I don't enjoy trying to convince admins that their attitudes are wrong afterwards. Even though my motivations are none of your business, I'm not especially bitter about my team not making it (...I didn't even think it was very likely, no offecence teammates).
EDIT: Oh I do know how hard the admining job is but the things I complained about initially are not that hard to keep up. We've managed with them just fine (allthough everything else might have fallen apart)

I'm pretty sure no one's told you to stfu because you're slow, and I don't think Benji's comment was particularly under the belt. Maybe gut-level, though.

A little bit disappointing. Some of the accepted teams didnīt show up in the test race either in the iRC or handling the rules as mentioned before.
But we will accept this decision by the admins! Thank you for the test race (was still a good expirience for me to drive this mode of racing like i organized the SHAC events in Germany 2007) and good luck to all competing teams.
We are also retiring definitly from the waiting list.
If your saying what i think you are here, it was compulsary for any accepted team to do the test race, we didn't need to test anything, we and most of the people on the accepted list that didn't turn up already have a good knowledge of how IGTC is run. Also if all the accepted teams drive the test race how are people supposed to try and get in, if there are hardly any places.
I hope i understood you right :D

I'm pretty sure you didn't. By "accepted teams" I believe he meant the 9 teams accepted into the starting grid, and by not there at the test race, I think he meant not present in the IRC channel. But I could be wrong too!

Got a question: Teams from waiting list could post their lineups before race and wait or will they be invited, it there's free spot?

The way it worked last season (and how I presume it will continue to work this season) is that if a team reports that they are unable to make a race, or if they fail to confirm their entry by the Thursday deadline, they will be replaced by the first available team in the waiting list.
The waiting list teams will be notified either when the team announces its unavailability or after the deadline has passed. So, if you're at the top of the list (I'd say in the top 2-3 spots) you should be alert to the possibility of being called up for a given round.

Hmm, we did not expect making it to the accepted teams' list. But not including us in the waiting list... guys c'mon. You're losing a good team and good battles. We move on... awaiting for the feeder series

The list of teams has been updated with those accepted for the season. :thumbsup:
Thanks to all teams for applying and for attending the test race!
We realize that not making the field is disappointing, and so we have added as many teams as we see fit to the waiting list. Teams on the waiting list may be promoted, one by one, to the season grid if a team currently on the grid drops out of the series. If your team's name does not appear on either list, we're sorry, but we do not feel that your team meets the IGTC's standards. If you wish to reapply in the future and be re-evaluated, that may be possible, at the admins' discretion.
Bolded.

Due to missing two consecutive races, #13 Sunday Drivers Incorporation and #27 Swedish Close Combat Squad have been moved to the end of the waiting list. Additionally, Starlite Racing, a new entrant, has also been added to the end of the queue.
The demotions of SDI and SCCS have bumped #36 CAPO ARG and #37 Guglhupf Racing Team to active team status.
