Server is up.

Still playing with fuel loads/tyre wear rates. We're aiming for 2x fuel loads per set of tyres in each class. Tweaks will be made in the next week or so.

If anybody practices can I please have your feedback with:
1. How long did the fuel last (run 50L in GT, 83L LMP1)
2. How long did a set of tyres last

At time of writing GT cars can have 100L - we will restrict this to 50L which will allow for about 16 laps per tank of fuel, with around 28 laps per set of tyres.

LMP1 currently has an 83L fuel tank, we'll probably increase this by 10-15L to give about 16 laps per tank.
Tyre wear on LMP1 is too low, currently getting 80 laps per set of tyres, we will increase the wear rate to aim for about 30 laps per set of tyres.

Tonight's race will be a standing start

The AI safety car doesn't enter the pits at the end of the warm-up lap.

Due to yet more server issues I'm going to have to postpone this for tonight.

Sorry chaps, I'm probably more pissed off at this than most of you put together!  Evil or Very Mad
