≡Track Notes ≡

Track boundaries for all races in GATE 2 are universally defined as follows:
The white lines along the edge of the track are considered to be the track boundaries. These lines continue onto the rumble strips at each corner. At no point should there be no more than two wheels over those lines/rumble strips. two tires must remain in contact with the track at all times. The preceding defines the "track." hard surfaces beyond white lines and curbing/rumble strips such as concrete, "greencrete", or turf and other run off is not considered to be track. White lines, curbing/rumble strips are track and even if you only have two tires on their very edges (to be reviewed and confirmed by as steward) it will be considered clean.

This rule is, of course, also pertinent to both regular season qualifying and the group qualifying to be held especially for the pre-season event.

≡Track Specific ≡

Pit Entry: Only thing to keep in mind is to not enter too fast. The game will penalise you or even hold you in the pits with no release. DO NOT use any barriers or walls as guide or to gain time/speed. Make sure you slow down on pit entry. Anyone using the wall to keep up speed will be penalised.

Pit Exit: Make sure to respect the white pit exit lines. You can cross them, but only if you're 100% sure that the track is clear.
As always, if an incident occurs as a result from a driver crossing the line (Either the one on track, or the one exiting the pits), it is the driver that crossed the line who is at fault

≡Fuel ≡

The in-game fuel calculator doesn't function correctly. You must do a test run of approx half distance and calculate your own fuel usage. If you follow the guidelines set by the game, you will run out of fuel

A guide to rolling starts by Dr_Watson

A staggered double-file line is used for our rolling start for the first lap after which the race will begin at the start/ finish line.
oQpyV.png
( First time pole sitters will be contacted for confirmation of the following regulations)
  • Pole sitter will begin on the left side of the track.
  • Even number position qualifiers will be on the right side lane of the formation. Odd number qualifiers will be in the pole sitters lane on the left side.
  • Once the GT5 race countdown has completed and the race event has begun all drivers must hold position and wait for confirmation from the host to proceed. Use your handbrakes, sit silently, report any suspicious latency between cars or lag jolting/skipping. After the host has given the go ahead all drivers will begin to slowly form up in qualifying order. The leader must act as gatherer, they must not pre-maturely advance from the group, it is their job to keep the pace slow enough until all cars are in position then proceed to formation speed.
  • Even pace at 100 kmh / 62 mph,
  • The pole leader must wait for the grid to line up behind them completely on the start straight before starting the race by applying full throttle at the start/finish line.
  • No weaving is allowed during formation lap.
  • You must not overlap the car ahead of you.
  • Do not pass any car until you're past the point the pole sitter started the race at.
  • Jump starters will be given warnings or penalties depending on severity.
  • If a driver is damaged on formation then the damaged driver must communicate this through text chat and continue at a reasonable speed to the pit area. The other cars will continue on as normal and the damaged car(s) can join the group as they come around for their first lap. At this point the formation lap will continue on for a second lap after which the race will begin. If it happens once more, the same contingency will be applied and a third formation lap will go on. After this, no more "formation restarts" will be acceptable and the affected drivers must either retire or start far behind the group. Drivers experiencing extreme lag will be asked to leave so the other drivers can race.
  • If, for any reason, a driver misses the formation start and stays behind still on the track the race will not go on, it must be restarted to eliminate the obstacle.

Aggressive Driving​
Over the last 2 or 3 rounds, we have noticed more and more aggressive driving.
This track is not the easiest to make a pass, you will have to be patient, wait for a mistake and use you pit stops wisely.
The constant bumping into the car ahead of you will not be tolerated. Everyone makes a few mistakes here and there, but forcing your opponent into a mistake by pushing his car repeatedly is aggressive driving and will be punished accordingly.
Lets have a great finish to the season. 2 full rooms of 16 this week. Great turn out everyone.
Have fun and keep it clean

It wasnt fun or clean im sorry to say.
 
Disaster race for me , had a lag crash with josh at the start and i pitted right away putting me last , had to try a 1 stop now , 20 summn laps later i spin and get damaged again , just decided to quit then .

Ive had better races , lol.
 
Done with being dive bombed and pushed wide after cleanly passing someone in the previous braking zone. Only staying in the pits so I can save the replay.

The track isnt the problem. it's a nice track.
 
A lot of incidents, might not be the best track but its a fun track i must say. Almost spun around in the first corner after the restart :) and had to avoid phead a few laps in and got damage. And to top it of i spun in the chicane and hit the barrier, i hope you didn't get damage there tony. Tried to go right but my rear was all over the place.

Lets bring on spa and lets hope I'm up there fighting for a podium! 👍
 
OMG. Power went out exiting the last turn on last lap.

Please for all that's sane tell me I'm not getting screwed out of my drive from 13th to 7th. Uggggh

I'm totally gutted here.

I would hope not. We always pretend that disconnections are like engine failures. Surely you'd be able to coast across the line. If there was someone right behind you, maybe they get ahead of you.

No body in sight from behind.
 
That sucks man, sorry to hear, so close to finishing. Wait, did you finish then get DC'ed during the cooldown?
 
I'd be happy to let my teammate keep the spot ahead of me, personally - no way I was catching him that lap.
 
Had good fun tonight, was really hard work keeping up with Tony in the first half, then accidently hit OK on my 2nd stop before taking fuel. But glad I managed to get back up to 2nd before the line, doubt I would have got Tony anyway, the gap was a little bit too big to close unless he made a mistake.

Good run Spurgy. I wondered why you pitted with 8 to go.
 
My race developed well, finding myself alone in thrird after a while. But I just didn't have the pace here. In the end I had a three way battle for third with Rich and Turbo, being slowest of the three. Lost the car in the chicane and hit the barrier. Next lap trying to pit I hit the pit post, spun in the pit entry, and got a drive through without getting the damage fixed. Then I just parked it.

Good fun though.
