    Hi,
    in ranked race DTM 1995 Nordschleife there is a 10 minutes qualy, but, because you start from pits, you have to do a GP warmup lap and sneek thru the space in right turn of pit entry to start a timed lap.

    to do the warmup lap from pits to start/finish line it takes a minimum of about 2 minutes ... a complete timed lap nordschleife 24h takes about 8:20 (what is the LEADERs laptime in the competition event!!!) ... so it is impossible to set a laptime

    two solutions ...
    15 minutes qualy, starting from pits to be more "sim" ... heat up tiretemps etc.

    or

    beeing thrown on track at the end of nordschleife as usual ;-)

    where i prefer the first, to be more realisic ...

    UPDATE

    looks like it also is mostly impossible to finish the race, the after racetimer is to short and/or 20 minutes for a race thats running at least about 25 minutes and longer is to short ...

    That seems to be fixed ... 15 minutes qualify ... starting from pits .... 23 minutes race ... rolling start ... that feels realistic
    thx to whom ever fixed it

    again no Europe DTM1995 Nordschleife, because the last race ended around 23:47 i think thats why its not starting at 23:45 ... the old race still runs ...
    with 12 minutes qualifying ( 2 minutes warmup gp lap, 10 minutes for the qualifying lap) and 23 minutes race there is a good chance to handle it

    or, delay server start till old one shuts down, and reduce the training session dynamically by the delta time

    P. S.: training could be also reduced to 12 minutes fixed as qualifying (race than can be 23 minutes like now)

    I did the 1995 dtm at nordeschleife, 20 mins did 2 Laps then started to panic as didnt think to fuel for 3 laps like an idiot, and fuel was running out but the race finished at the 20 mins mark roughly. Wiped brow after that

    hi,
    i just participated in another DTM1995 Nordschleife started 19:45 MEZ and it ended 20:47:50 MEZ.

    Now there is no Europe server again that should have been started at 20:45 MEZ - obiously because the former one still running at 20:45 MEZ

    could some on pls investsigate that ... easiest way 10 minutes Training, 15 minutes qualifying and 23 minutes race ...

    Hi,
    would be nice if we could have this race every hour as it is announced ... not only every two hours - racing weekend ;)
    Please adjust timings to
    - 10 minutes training (little warm up for qualifying should be enough ...)
    - 15 minutes qualifying (enough time to join for a full qualifying lap ...)
    - 23 minutes race (enough for a good chance to reach finishline ...)

    This should fit in the one hour window, including spare times between sessions and the after race timer

    Please:):):):)

    Could you spawn you on the straight before the gp section starts and give you that lap to use instead of doing a whole lap before quali starts? A bit like solo session quali or time attack comps do

    I guess they rarely read this forum. I reposted it on Discord, maybe they'll notice it there.
