Update Sep 17,2024
Grid filled for 2024, thanks everyone. Here is your initial update involving some work/communication amongst the teammates before we go ahead Oct 5-10th.
- 21 Teams = 42 players…. See all Players/Teams on blogsite https://lmesteamevents.blogspot.com/2024/09/LMESTeamEvent11.html
1. Kindly
revert to me until Oct 1st with the Team names you want to use and your pick on
chassis/engine/tires per rules for Round 1 below.
The series will have 5 seasons this year and it
covers all 4 classes. We start with GT class, followed by LMP2 in Round2. Five
seasons in such a competitive grid is a tough challenge, each point counts. For
the fun to play, the series will differ a bit from standard LMES and not allow
standard car/DC choices. All suppliers and DC must be communicated by PM to the
host before season starts. This should avoid that some teams wait to see
choices of others
2. Car options classes
Note: each TEAM has ONE single WILDCARD option
to replace the given chassis, when used it is ticked off!
- Round 1 in GT: Each team MUST use TREVOR
chassis (Wildcard option: one of the BMWs)
- Round 2 in LMP2: Each team MUST use HELTER or
TILLGREN (Wildcard option: Loller)
- Round 3 in GTS: Each team MUST use LODGE or
RETROVET (Wildcard option: Toyoma or Lantorino)
- Round 4 in LMP1: Each team MUST use DANOS or
LEICESTER (Wildcard option: Dallama or Xitech)
- Round 5 The Final in LMP2: Each team MUST use
LOLLER or XITECH (Wildcard option: Gunnage)
3. Tires: You MUST use different tires in
each round! Teams can decide WHEN to use WHICH! Options are Llanelli,
Coco, Mitchell, Donelap, Yokouno (Wildcard: each TEAM has ONE single option to
use GOODYEAR tires)
4. Driver Characteristics: Each driver may use
any DC ONLY ONCE across all Seasons! The game offers 17 different DCs, so when
reaching the final 15 of those must have been used
5. Groups/Teams per class - Groups for Rounds 2
to 4 will be re-allocated by ranking - at season end the lowest ranked teams on
aggregate count will be knocked out (regardless of group)

This will be early October business,
make sure you’ll have a free slot by then. Preparing such Event simply takes a
bit of time. If you have a teammate – fine. If not, I’ll put you down for
Teaming Market and we’ll find a suitable partner. For the fun to play, the
series will differ a bit from standard LMES and not allow standard car choices.
All suppliers must be communicated by PM to the host before season starts. This
should avoid that some teams wait to see choices of others
RULES 2024

seasons across winter. This will mean the series will run into late April to
mid May 2025
2. First 4 rounds are Qualifying for The Final. Starting Groups will be chosen
via www.random.org
3. Point system: Standard LMES Points, aggregate count of Rounds 1 to 4. The
Final (Round 5) will start from scratch, each team will have 0 points at start
4. Car options for classes

option to replace the given chassis, when used it is ticked off!

7. Groups/Teams per class
Depending on number of Teams on the grid. The series will have Knock-outs after Rounds 2 to 4 to shrink the field down to the 10 best ranked teams to play Round 5 The Final
Worth to note:
DRIVERS title is not your key target; you need to rely on your teammate. If
someone really has obligations outside of BAT and needs a sabbatical during the
series, please inform your teammate and the host. I will ensure that a
replacement will be found swiftly. Team names should be unchanged throughout
contest and at least one driver must finish all 5 rounds (if both drivers need
to be replaced, the team will be kicked from the game).
