    Not perfect, but a very good beginning!

    Missing (so far):

    - Forced View
    - Driver change (Endurance Races)
    - Weather/Temp. Air & Track
    - Grip starting level
    - Grip increase during session
    - Multiple Qualify Sessions (maybe oversee...)
    - Car extra weight (additional to the drivers extra weight)
    - inversed grid 2
    - adding Driver & Teams

    Limit access to the server depending on the safety rating of each player.

    When implemented.:wink:

    As for me there need to be option not only reverse or add some player but also full manually grid configuration. For example apply some penalties that come from previous stage, so you can drag some player trough the grid standing.
    And for reverse, there should be ability create not only full reverse grid, but specify what amount of racers to revers, eg. top-8, top-10 or so...
    Also have a checkbox that turn on/off mandatory pit-stop. And maybe not the checkbox but dropdown menu, with works you should make on it (eg. no jobs, change all tires, swap driver...)

    Thank you to make a standalone version, so we did not need to steam on our servers.

    It would be nice to have the possibility to block the arrival of new drivers during qualif session.
    Most of the time there is lag when a driver connect on the server. It's a little troublesome.

    I'd like to see the ability to create an online series and and have the championship points tracked throughout the series so it doesn't need to be done manually and have the standings posted on the leagues homepage within rre.
    Customizable point system....
    Bonus point for fastest lap, pole etc.

    Would be nice if in the future the started lap would count even if the time left goes to end like in real life!

    In my opinion, it would be nice if we can set up the race by laps, not just by times (I couldn't see that option in the video).

    And it would be nice if we can set up a grid more than 25 people! :)

    P.s: any chance for a hotlap 'app' maybe? :)

    Race distance by laps is essential.

    Here are my suggestions...
    I my opinion unique features and very very useful and must haves for leagues.
    • Livestats for Webpages (API/RESTAPI)
    • Json / CSV export of Racingresults (Webpages)
    • A kind of spectator mode ( with customizable and designable UI/ editable Lower Thirds)
    • Live-direction for spectators/commentators with camtools (invisible ui for spectators)
    • Own carskins / liveries (local) - displayed to all drivers who has installed this livery
    • Car-Templates for liveries
    • Introduction Lap (racing feel)
    • Round based racing sessions
    --
    • fix for "player joining" - lag
    • fix for "can not join" bug (already known)

    it would be nice the instant racingmode switching between the sessions or the grid are removed or improved. I would like finish my last round. sometimes is it that the fastes round.

    Probably it's not the good topic to ask but will it be possible to sort our contacts by cars or packs they bought in the future ?

    Would be neat to allow the Leaderboard Challenge game mode to work with the dedicated servers. Have all the cars be ghosted or something and have live sessions with friends at the same time. Would make a good training tool for slower people to possibly.

    The allowance of unrealistic weights would be cool. Being able to change them live on track would be even better. One, it could allow different class cars to attempt to race evenly, if users wanted them to. Private hosted iRacing sessions did this a lot to get more varied cars on the grid.

    Two and more importantly I'd like to have this when racing some friends. Not everyone is as fast as each other so adding (or removing?) weight to attempt to even the playing field so slower people aren't bored out of their minds and racing alone, would be great.
