RULES
GENERALLY, THESE ARE THE RULES WE WILL BE FOLLOWING. PLEASE READ UP!

CLEAN RACING or you are out. The only time you should be touching another car is in the straights, other than that give each other LOTS of room to race. Failure to comply to these rules, and you will be asked to leave.

A. COMMUNICATION
  • A headset is strongly recommended
  • No cursing, racism, bathroom humor, or innuendos of any kind is allowed over the radio or in text form through the PSN or GTPlanet at any time. This includes shortcut words like STFU or WTF.
  • Flaming is not tolerated in open or public. Debate the incident in a civilized manor but do not flame the other driver.
  • During the race keep communication light and strictly to issues concerning the race.
  • Communication is to be kept silent during qualifying sessions.
  • Keep off-topic (non GT5/race related) chatter to a minimum
B. GENERAL ON TRACK BEHAVIOR
  • You must bring your car to a stop either in the pits or on a safe place on the track before exiting the vehicle using ingame options.
  • Reversing or driving backwards on track for a period longer then needed to recover from an incident is forbidden.
  • Making donuts or standing stationary and spinning your tires is forbidden in every session.
  • You are not allowed to park your car anywhere on track.
  • Intentional wrecking of any kind is not allowed, even between two consenting parties.
C. PIT STOPS
  • Daytona has a pit lane speed. You must reduce your car's speed to the speed limit by the time you enter pit road.
  • Do not merge onto the track until the backstretch at Daytona Speedway,
  • If possible, do not slow down for the pits while on the racing line.
  • When exiting the pits pay attention to any merging lines on the track. Watch out for other cars already up to speed when exiting the pits.
  • Do your best to alert those around you of your intention to pit. If you have a headset alert those around you about your intention to pit. Ex: "Car 24 pitting this time"
I. RACING
  • Bump drafting the car ahead of you at a sensible speed is allowed on the straights, but is strictly prohibited in the turns.
  • "Bump and Run" techniques are strictly prohibited.
  • If you are about to be lapped by the leader keep sensible in your driving. If you are considerably off the pace or damaged it would be better to just move out of the racing line and give plenty of room to the leader or other leading cars.
  • You are not allowed to intentionally wreck anyone, even in practice sessions.
  • Daytona has an "out of bounds" line. You are not allowed to put two tires below this line. You are not allowed to advance your position over any car on the track below this line. If you are forced below this line and you advance your position, you must give the position back before the end of the lap.
  • When blocking you are not allowed to make sudden changes of direction. The following driver must be given enough time to react and avoid you depending on his closing speed. You are allowed to only make one blocking move per straight. Weaving across the track to block someone or break a draft is not allowed.
  • There is no strict formula on how to pass another car or how to be passed. SCANA and FND expects all drivers to respect their fellow drivers. Do not dive bomb drivers. Keep an eye on drivers attempting to pass you from behind. Give a reasonable amount of room. If you find yourself constantly creating alot of contact when you make a pass you probably aren't doing it right. Do not boss your way through the field or through lapped cars.
  • Physics for every racing series will be "Professional".
J. ACCIDENTS
  • Accidents are a part of racing and are expected to happen and most are honest mistakes. However there is a difference between a mistake and carelessness. A careless driver drives beyond his limits or the limits of others around him time and time again. Learn the limits of your own driving ability and the limits and driving ability of the drivers you race with on a weekly basis before attempting any risky manuvers.
  • If a driver wants to a file a complaint against another driver for wrecking him in a race he should not attempt to retaliate in the race. He should file a complaint with SCANA after the race. The SCANA and FND officials will review the replay and take proper actions. Attempting to retaliate during the race is a bad idea because the driver cannot be 100% sure how or why the incident happened and retaliation may collect a bystanding driver.
  • If you spin/wreck another driver you may slowdown at a safe point on the track and let him retake the position ahead of you. This is NOT a requirement for any accident. It is up to the driver's conscience. However doing this may prevent or lessen post-race penalties. If you think a race accident was just a racing deal and nothing outside of superhuman reflexes or abilities could have prevented the situation then continue on racing. If you think the accident was the other driver's fault then continue on racing. Everything will be settled after the race if the driver you wrecked files a complaint.
  • When recovering from an accident wait until the track is clear before reentering the race course.
K. CONNECTION ISSUES & WARP
  • If a race is disconnected it may or may not be run at another time.
  • If a single driver is disconnected from a race he will be scored behind all the other drivers who finish the race. This will be seen as a mechancal failure.
  • If more then half of the drivers in the race are disconnected the race may or may not be rerun at a later time.
  • If you start to warp drop to the back of the pack or away from other cars. You may be asked to disconnect from the race if you are a threat to the other drivers.

MAKE SURE YOU HAVE BOTH Chadwicksracing and Gtuuk on your psn friends list
IF YOU HAVE A (PENDING APPROVAL) AFTER YOUR NAME THAT MEANS MYSELF OR OTHER RACE ADMINS HAVENT SEEN YOU RACE PLEASE RACE WITH US PRIOR TO THIS FRIDAY

RACE FORMAT

There will be 2 shootout races being held at the same time.
Gtuuk and Chadwicksracing will both hold private rooms. Depending on attendance we will make sure both rooms have even amount of drivers.
Chadwicksracing and I will be watching the shootouts
Shootout races will consist of a 20 lap race with no cautions with a competition caution after 10 laps. We will go Green next time bye.
The top 7 drivers from each shootout will advance to the 100 lap race with full cautions and as close as we can get to NASCAR rules.
I will give 1 restart to the race for disconnects in the main race.We will then have to rerun qual.
Luckydogs will be given to the first car a lap down.No wave arounds will be given as I cant make sure you dont pit under caution.

Welda i cant take the credit for the post Chadwicksracing sent me the code and I butchered it up lol
 
Well....thank you to both of you for putting this together.
BTW, great racing the other night...love the full damage. I watched the replays...we were 4 wide on the last lap...I bet you couldnt fit a hand between our cars....awesome.
 
I would like to race if there is room for more. iShift_Faced is my PSN ID. Thanks and can't wait to get out there with yall.
 
Looking good. 👍

I'm just wondering, scrap getting bonus points for pole position. Bonus points for leading a lap and leading the most laps, like real life.

Its a bit hard to keep count of that stuff. Someone would have to watch close. Even then, it would be hard to keep accurate count.

Just my two cents! But PD could easily implement that kind of tracking system. Its a shame.

Well I'm willing to watch the replay of the whole race. Also another thing, if I'm the only car a lap down then I definitely want my lap back, soon as the caution comes out.

OK, be on the lookout for a friend request from me. Though I can assure you I am a clean driver I like how you are testing those interested out to get the most respectable racers out there. See you soon.
 
This event is special for SCANA with FND. The next SCANA event will be on its normal day. [1-11-11] Look for it soon.
 
Any driver who needs verification can do some tonight. I plan on running some races around 8PM EST.

The room will be in the public lobbies; look for SCANA - FND in the title.

I have always shyed away from online racing because it is so hard to find a race that isn't some version of a high-speed demolition derby. I thought GT5 probably has mature folks who want to actually race. I went to my first GT5 room last night called "Clean" and was greeted by 2 Elise's that did nothing but intentionally wreck me....blocking the road and when I went by they'd beat at me from both sides. It was so weird. Or maybe I volunteered to be a rolling punching bag and wasn't aware of it...IDK

Sorry.

If I am looking for clean, civilized racing can I try out for SCANA -FND?


Thanks

Thanks for your interest in SCANA and FND please try to join a room named SCANA or FND. Just a heads up for ya FND is Friday night Daytona only. and SCANA runs on Tuesday nights. SCANA is geared more for road Courses its alot of fun and very technical.I dont consider Daytona a very technical track all you really have to do is hold a line and not bump draft like crazy in packs. Hope to see ya on the track
 
I kept this race and captured it. Very Nice Finish. Although I was screwed over at the end....

 
Just a FYI guys I know that was just fun racing last night but i will be watching the replays at the end of a race and if i see people passing below the yellow in the tri oval last lap i will take away their finish position and score them accordingly.
 
Hi Gents, if there is still room I would love to join. I just searched "gran turismo 5 league" today and wish I had found this thread earlier. I'd love to participate in a verification meet/race.
 
Hi nitroustang96 thank you for your interest in FND and SCANA please be on the lookout for FND and SCANA room these will be open rooms so anyone can join so it might not be the high caliber racing as we hold in private rooms but its a good way to introduce yourself and prove you can run clean and fair see ya on the track...
