::::: CODE OF RACING CONDUCT :::::​


Drafted by Masi_23 in collaboration with GTRA peers. All rights belong to the original author/s and its affiliates. In no case shall the following be copied with no prior permission from the original author/s. All rights reserved.



I. Gentleman's Rule
a. Any driver can use the entire width of the track.
b. If a driver is about to be lapped or already lap down or more, seeing a fast approaching lead lap car from a distance, he must yield immediately by going off the optimal driving line.
c. Otherwise, if the lead lap car is just a few car lengths behind and is too close, the car being lapped must hold its line and allow the faster car to go through at the first available opening.
d. In a mixed class race, a lower class car must always hold its line when it is about to be lapped by a higher class car.
e. If for some reason a lower class car has been caught up in traffic and is unable to hold it's line, he must do his best to allow the higher class car to go past him at the most safe and opportune time.
f. Any driver who ignores these rules will be subjected to penalties.​


II. Passing
a. Who has the right of way into a corner will depend on the positions of the cars.
b. If an overtaking car is fully alongside its competitor within or after the braking ZONE, the rights to the corner goes to the overtaking driver.
c. The car being overtaken must surrender the position and should not turn in to the other driver.
d. If an overtaking car is not fully alongside its competitor within or after the turn-in point, the rights belong to the driver ahead, and it is the obligation of the car attempting to overtake to give the other driver room and do everything possible to prevent an incident.
e. Furthermore, if an overtaking driver is alongside its competitor before the braking zone, the rights to the corner belongs to that overtaking driver.
f. The car being overtaken must surrender the position and hold its line coming in to the next corner.
g. Peripheral vision is limited in Sim Racing so it is advised that you maximize the available resources we have, such as mirrors, track maps, and audio cues like engine and exhaust notes, to prevent incidents.
h. Situational awareness is vital. Not seeing your opponent will not be a valid excuse if you are involved in an incident.​


III. Defensive Driving
a. Depending on the situation, any car can be overtaken from either side of the track. You can defend your position only 'once' by changing the position of your car in relation to the track.
b. Anything aggressive such as sudden movements (when the overtaking car is about to pass and is very close) are strictly forbidden.
c. Deliberately squeezing a car beyond the edge of the track or any other unusual change of direction are strictly forbidden.
d. Driving down a straight and placing your car off or opposite the driving line far in advance before the braking zone, forcing your opponent to take the outside line or a different line in general, is considered a reasonable strategy for defending your position.
e. This counts as 'one move' (III-a.). Any further movements will be deemed as illegal blocking.
f. Rule (e.) may differ (width and length) from each track in the calendar, notices will be posted prior to the race to accommodate unique variations from each venues.​


IV. Car Contact
a. Car contact will be strictly regulated to ensure a disciplined racing environment.
b. Any close or minimal contact with another car with small to no effect to the race outcome will be tolerated.
c. Any contact that causes any damage to another car/s is deemed illegal and will be subject to penalties.
d. Any car that gains a spot/s through contact with another car, must relinquish the said spot/s or he will be subjected to penalties.
e. Drafting must be conducted carefully. You cannot bump draft another car if you are about to enter the braking zone.
f. If by any case, an incident and or damage is caused by drafting, the drafting car (behind) will be deemed responsible at most cases.
g. A car ahead of drafting tandem/pack cannot be deemed responsible for any incident/damage if he commenced braking at a reasonable point inside the braking zone.
h. Reckless and overall aggressive driving will not be tolerated.​


V. Track Contact
a. Drivers must always keep 2 wheels on (or vertically in line with) the track at all times.
b. The edges of the track are marked with white lines and are considered to be a part of the track. Gray/Concrete cobbles are part of the tack.
c. The Rumble Strips are part of the track; however, all surfaces with green paint, either beside it or be the rumbles themselves, are not part of the track.
d. Do not hit any objects visible or invisible (eg. cones, barriers, walls, etc.)
e. In a situation where the driver goes off the track, and without prejudice to part (g) below, he may rejoin, only when it is safe and without gaining any advantage.
f. If a driver unintentionally or intentionally leaves the track and gains a spot, he must relinquish that spot or he will be penalized.
e. Drivers committing serious mistakes repeatedly or seem to have a problem with keeping the car on the track would be reported to the Stewards and could result in penalties.


At any given time during the season, drivers are expected to follow these rules. Any driver who deliberately appears to break any of these rules to gain advantage at any stage in the race or the season could be penalized by the Stewards.​

::::: PENALTY SYSTEM :::::​



Stewards have the power to impose various penalties on a driver if he commits an offence during a race. Offences include jumping the start, causing an avoidable accident, unfairly blocking another driver, impeding another driver when being lapped, or gaining an advantage by leaving the track. Penalties will vary depending on severity of offence. Stewards can impose time penalties, reprimand a driver, exclude him from the results, or suspend him from the next race.​


I. Offences
  • Breach of the required vehicle specs and 'Race Rules' (minimum DQ)
  • Breach of the 'Gentleman's Rule' (minimum 10 second penalty)
  • Breach of Track Contact Rules (minimum 10 second penalty)
  • False Start (Passing before start finish of Rolling Start) (minimum 10 second penalty)
  • Avoidable contact resulting to damage and/or lost time (minimum 25 second penalty)
  • Hindering drivers from overtaking by changing directions more than once (minimum 10 second penalty)
  • Illegal blocking/forcing cars off track (minimum 10 second penalty)
  • Not relinquishing gained position/s after going off track (minimum +25 second penalty)
  • Not relinquishing gained position/s after contact with another car (minimum +10 second penalty)
  • Rejoining track after an off without regards to oncoming traffic (minimum +10 second penalty)
  • Overall aggressive driving (minimum warning)
  • Breach of Probation (exclusion for the whole season)
Any of the above can add up together resulting to bigger timed penalties and/or Disqualification.​


II. Penalties
Specifics
  • +10 seconds to Total Time
  • +25 seconds to Total Time
  • +40 seconds to Total Time
  • +5 spots down the grid to next race
  • Exclusion from Results (DQ)
  • Suspension for 1 Race + Probation for whole season
  • Exclusion from the whole season
Breach of Racing Code - IV. Track Contact
Three Strike System
Strike 1: Warning
Strike 2: +10 seconds
Strike 3: +25 seconds (May depend after Steward deliberation)
Further track contact violations will result to bigger timed penalties and/or Disqualification.​


III. Reporting an Incident
Issues must be first kept privately between the parties involved (through the PM system). If the said parties do not come to a mutual agreement, the issue must be escalated and reported to the Stewards within 24 hours after the race, otherwise, penalties will not be given out or considered unless it is noted by the Steward. If you are involved, it is your responsibility to inform the Stewards of your side of the story within the 24 hours. However, not sending a report does not mean you will not be subjected to penalties. Stewards can observe replays and can apply penalties as seen fit without the notice of the parties involved. Furthermore, if a Steward/s is/are involved in an incident, he/she will be excluded temporarily from the Stewards Committee.

Please disclose important information about incidents along with your report.
  • Lap/Time when incident occurred
  • How long did incident occur (approx.)
  • How many were involved
  • Who was/were involved

Deliberation Process
  • An incident is reported and/or noted by Drivers/Stewards
  • Stewards will contact driver/s in potential fault
  • After hearing both parties, Stewards will review the replay and give suitable penalties.

Enforcing Penalties
Penalties will be strictly enforced. They can neither be appealed nor reversed.​

Thanks Lucky. Make sure to sign-up when you've decided. Spread the word also. The more the merrier :cheers:

To Biffy - please signup again as i have revised something inside the form. Also, have you decided about the car color?
 
Argh! Another good series on a Monday! Hopefully that's just for the Test race, though. I would love to take part in this, but I won't make the Monday test since I've already given my commitment to another event.
 
Re-signed up for the series, I chose the original, darker blue that you buy with the car as my Racing Colours, but the chip doesn't have a name so I just left it as blue in the form 👍
 
In. Gran Turismo Green aka Le Man Green aka Samaba Green. All very similar.

Number 27. Will fill out form asap.


Irony my son asked me last night how come nobody does a Citreon GT Racecar league. I said. I don't know but that be fun.

Awesome!!!


Edit: I put DS3 for I use a T500 and it's not listed in wheel options. :( Also missed the time zone tab. I am EST(day light savings)

Yeah, i think this would be the first one. Would be epic to drive the onboard with a triple monitor setup - absolutely horrid with just one.

That reminds me, i forgot to put controllers on the driver's list.

Hey masi, i will sort my car and colour out tomorrow so i can sign up etc.
Hope that is ok with you...
 
That's fine Pag, i just hope it's not a really long named paint chip so it'll fit inside the driver's list :D
 
lol I can always make some space, but the way it looks now is great. I actually forgot to add the PSN names.

But anyway, sign-up and spread the word 👍
 
Ohhhhh prizes now, looking forward to it even more.
Its such a nice car to look at.....
 
Not happy with the 5,400,000Cr price of the Citroen, feel like I've been robbed just like when I pay s***loads for an Engine change and they take about 5 seconds to do the job :grumpy:
 
Yeah, not sure where but you win it early on. Perhaps somewhere in the license tests? Check the prize car list..
