Team race

Ok,
Track has 3 lanes.
There are 3 teams with 2 drivers each.
Race total time is 2hrs.
I want each heat to have 20 minutes with a total of 6 heats.
___________________________________

After selecting teams I go back to set the time for the race: 2:00hrs, segments of 20mins and the software shows that correct number of segments: 6. I click on the generate button that brings me to the Heats Editor Screen. There, I click on generate again and the software only generates 3 heats. It appears to be generating heats for the first driver of each team only.

What am I doing wrong here?

Thank you,
Ary.

Heat editor is for individual races and not for team races , for team races : in the race setting just fill the Team column and the rotation sequence in the column “Rotation lane” , here a video showing the race setting for a team race:

Hi Guy,
I think what/who is getting rotated during the race is getting lost in the conversation. The problem (as we see it) is that the program is not rotating drivers through the different lanes. It rotates the drivers through the relief schedule just fine, but after each team races every member in the same lane once we need the entire team to be rotated to the next lane.

So Team1/Racer1 and Team1/Racer2 both drive their 10 minute stints in Lane 1. (Two heats.) In the third heat we need Team1 to move to the Lane 2 and run two heats, then in fifth heat they would move to Lane 3, and so on, and so on... Of course each team would follow the prescribed lane rotation sequence.

And finally, for endurance races, it would be great if teams would keep rotating through every lane until the specified time expired. (i.e. A 4 hour race on a 3 lane track with 20 minute heats for each driver would have each team racing in each lane twice.)

Thanks,
Brian

Autorama, please look again my video !!!

for team races : in the race setting just fill the "Team" column and the rotation sequence in the column “Rotation lane”

Just take a look at the rotations and you will understand our problem.

This is what you want:

Team 1 - Start on Lane 1 (Yellow) going to Lane 3 (Green)
Team 2 - Start on Lane 2 (Blue) going to Lane 1 (Yellow)
Team 3 - Start on Lane 3 (Green) going to Lane 2 (Blue)

So your rotation sequence should be 3 , 1 , 2

Guy,

Not very much improvement after changing the lane rotation order to: 1 to 3, 2 to 1, 3 to 2. The drivers are still racing all their 3 heats on the same lane, the only think that changed was the order in which they race the same lanes.





What needs to happen is all the drivers rotating through all lanes. I'm including a table with the correct rotation we are looking after:



Thank you.

ok now i understand what you want, all the drivers of a team need to race on the lane before the lane rotation occur, unfortunately that's not possible to setup this kind of rotation with Pc Lap Counter
