Yeah I thought the same. It's because we have "real weather" in a season set in autumn and winter. A lot of sessions will have precipitation because of this. In my opinion it might be better not have "real weather" at the moment and just have one or two races set in the rain.

I've created a poll so everyone can give their opinion.

Hi browny 
I like your thoughts but our real weather system gives more realistic races. 
Also you are not an organiser for this league so what me and Glenn decide is final :D

Honestly real weather dont make sense at all...
There is a reason why we dont see F1, MotoGP, DTM, and so on during winter... Rain is one thing, but snow... unless you are driving Rally of course.
I dont remeber to see GT3/GTE on Snow on my life or under 0 degrees...

But the organizers should now better.

PS: This evening i have to stay late, ill do my best to arrive home before race starts.

I understand your claims but we have done this for quite a while now with several leagues and it has worked well. 
I would also prefer if you didn’t call us out for making decisions like this I understand you having an opinion but to say we should know better is a little insulting.

This was wrongly interpreted by you. I was not making any type o assumptions or insinuations.
I meant that u are the organization and whatever u decided u should know it better then us. Also we accepted the rules and also to run under the current rules...
Meaning we have 2 options, accept and race or leave. I prefer race  :lol:

Today is the benchmark. If the racing quality is not on the level I was expecting, then I don't think I will be back for the next week.

Please do not race under snow condition. Set it as Clear if needed.

We will talk about it privately Xaiden.

sometimes common sense should prevail.

Hi guys next Monday is scheduled to be an autumn break as there isn’t a specific reason for this break for example Easter we are going to continue our season next Monday with oulton park to catch up on the schedule that was planned.

This is becoming a rutine now, another video from my perspective. I loved the moment when 4 cars where battling on start/finish line. Franktaito and me behind and I am not sure who was in front. Great moment there!

Also a few great pictures from that scene https://imgur.com/a/ufQhV. ​

P.S. I need a better graphics card for better quality...  :cry:  ​
