N4 question

Hi all,

Been a loong time since I posted here, Does anyone know of a way to run N4
online, With Yellows off. (here's the kicker) I'd like a way to add a
competition caution..Say for example a yellow predetermined to fall at say
the 25% mark in a 50% race...
Is this possible?? If not, It should be..(are you listening Papy?)

TIA,

Baart Simpson

So that N4 could follow NASCAR "rules" even more ? A kind of debris on
the track yellow. Sorry, I don't think it's a good idea.

In N3 you could throw and clear both yellow and black flags. I have
championed this cause to Papy over at their forums and have heard no
response. It was possible in N3 so I would hope that it would eventually
show up in the new physcis version 4.

  In a league situation,  You should be able to just Announce a yellow flag.
We did this recently at a TPTCC road race at Road Atlanta.  There was a big
bollux at the start...The host declared a yellow and we coasted around for a
lap to sort out who goes where.   Then the host had the leader declare Green
when he crossed the s/f line.   So long as everyone is aware of the rule and
what to do...this will work.  If you have somebody who misses the yellow
flag call or just has the red mist going...then the whole race is in
jepardy.(sp?){looks wrong, but anyother way I choose looks wronger}  :>

Sorry, I didn't ask if it was a good idea.
Just if it was possible.

Later,
