Season Starts
Welcome to the World Motorsport Association's (W.M.A) Engen BMW 135i Cup, part of the Wesbank Super Series initiative. This series will feature the BMW 135i Coupe '07 using the "tuning prohibited" option in the online lounge. This leads to very close and evenly matched racing and allows easy access as the drivers need only worry about driving and not tuning. Brake balance can be tuned and the tyres will be Sport Soft.
Date
22 Aug 2012
Time
21:00 GMT+2
Car
BMW 135i
Upgrades
None. Only oil change and Sport Soft tyres allowed.
Races weekends would consist of two rounds per race night.
A 30min practice session will be held half an hour before the race, followed by a 10 min Qualification and a 5 min break before the race officially begins.
Qualifying:
When qualifying begins the host will notify the group via the chat box. The track will then be reset to clear all previous lap times. Once the track is reset all drivers will enter the pits and STAY in their pit box until the command is given that the track is green. Qualifying sessions will last for 10 minutes. Once a driver has entered the pits/track for qualifying they must not exit to the lounge or their times will be lost, stay on the track or in the pits.
DO NOT LEAVE THE TRACK AND RE-ENTER ONCE YOU HAVE SET A TIME. IF YOU DO SO, YOU WILL LOSE YOUR LAP TIME AND START FROM THE BACK OF THE GRID.
Be courteous of your fellow drivers during qualifying, give everyone room and if you're not on a fast lap do not impede other drivers who are on a fast lap. When time has expired the host will instruct the drivers to return to the pits where they must stay until the race countdown finishes. The host will list the top 5 qualifiers via the chat box. If all drivers follow these instructions the grid will be correct.
A Drivers Championship will be determined, as will a Rising Star Award.
The Rising Star Award will be presented to the driver that shows the most progress throughout the season.
Races weekends will consist of two heats per race night. Both heats will consist of 8 Laps each.
