Open to Australia and New Zealand ONLY.
A new season begins on the 9th of July 2012. Details below.
The qualifier will be held to sort each driver out into their respective Tiers (see Rules section).
Each driver is given 5 laps to set their best time around the track. The 5 laps are taken in 1 go. Once you enter the track (when prompted) you will begin your 5 consecutive laps to set your best time. Once your 5 laps are competed your best time will be recorded and you will be advised to exit the track for the next driver.
A maximum of 2 drivers will be on the track at the same time during the qualifier to ensure each driver has enough room to set their best time without distraction.

The rules for qualifying each race have now changed. To bring more excitement to qualifying and reduce traffic,
the ORS will now run qualifying sessions in shootout format. The way this works is similar to real life F1 qualifying.
Qualiyfing 1 (Q1)
20 minutes
Drivers have 20 minutes to set their fastest time. Drivers in positions 7-16 will have their positions
locked in for the race. Drivers in positions 1-6 will move on to Q2.
Drivers 7-16 have their positions noted and ALL drivers leave the track. Once all drivers have left the track.
Drivers 1-6 will jump on track and begin their 10 minutes of qualifying.
Qualiyfing 2 (Q2)
10 minutes
The top 6 drivers from Q1 now have 10 minutes to get their fastest lap and lock in their position for the race.
A drivers fastest lap from Q1 does not have any relievence to Q2.
When the qualifying session is over. All driver postions are noted and everyone leaves the track.
Once all drivers have left the track, we will then announce all drivers to join the track, leave pits and line up in
qualifying positions around the track. Once in position the race will start.
NOTE: If a driver misses the Q1 session then they will start from the back of the grid for the race.
This new process ensures drivers get a chance to set their best time and stop people from joining a qualifying
session last minute, getting high on the grid and upsetting other drivers who have been in qualifying since the start.
I ask everyone to be aware during a qualifying session. If you are on your out lap or not on a hot lap
please ensure you move out of the way of any drivers currently on their hot lap.
The series is 10 rounds with 1 round each week (10 weeks).

Corner cutting Rules

2 wheels must be on the black stuff at all times! In other words.
2 wheels must always be inside the white track edge lines.
Foul Language and Ramming Not tolerated!! - Instant DQ and removal from the Championship.
Failure to comply results in a maximum point deduction of -15pts
A driver that consistently wins race after race will become subject to an increased ballast.
This is to ensure closer racing for all and provide more driver strategies.Example:
- Driver A wins round 1 and 2
- Ballast of XX applies to Driver A for Round 3 and remains for the entire series
- If Driver A continues to win another 2 rounds in a row then a further increase of ballast will be applied
Now the rules for this is simple. The car in front has the right of way and ownership of the racing line.
The car behind must wait to overtake and not muscle the car infront off the racing line.
Pit lane opens at the end of lap 5 for any tyre grade change and closes with 5 laps to go for your final tyre grade change. You cannot change to any other tyre grade until the end of lap 5.
Note: If you receive damage on lap 1-4 that needs to be repaired via pits you CANNOT change to any other tyre grade until end of lap 5. You must stay on your chosen qualifying tyre.
Example; You receive damage on lap 3 and need to pit. You must stay on your chosen qualifying tyre.
All drivers start the race on their chosen qualifying tyre.
The tyre limit is now open. Racing Hard, Mediums & Softs are available for use during a 'racing weekend'. A racing weekend consists of Qualifying and Racing. However there are limits to how you use these tyres. Everyone has an limited set of Soft/Medium/Hard racing tyres
(NO MIXING SETS, i.e Softs on front and hards on rear).
At the start of the racing weekend you will need to decide which tyre you qualify on.
Once you have chosen your qualifying tyre you MUST stick to that tyre.
You CANNOT change to a different set of tyres during that qualifying session.
You will also start the race on your qualifying tyre. The qualifying tyre and race start tyre count as 2 sets.
In the event a driver receives damage during set changes i have allowed a buffer to combat this. If you receive damage on lap 1-3 of your new set of tyres then it will not count as a used set if you need to pit to fix damage. You may stay on that same compound. If you receive damage from lap 4 onwards and pit to fix the damage then that tyre will count as a used set.The tyre limits for each compound are;
Tier 1 & 2
Racing Softs = 2 Sets
Racing Mediums = 3 Sets
Racing Hards = 4 Sets
Tier 3
Racing Softs = 3 Sets
Racing Mediums = 4 Sets
Racing Hards = 4 Sets
Your qualifying and race start tyre count as 2 used sets
Here is an example:
Driver A qualifies and starts on racing softs
Driver A now has 0xRS, 3xRM & 4xRH to use in the race
Driver B qualifies and starts on racing mediums
Driver B now has 2xRS, 1xRM & 4xRH to use in the race
Now here is the important part. ALL TYRE GRADES MUST BE USED DURING A RACING WEEKEND.
Stewards will make a note of each drivers tyres and penalties will be handed down if you fail to comply.Here is an example;
Example 1
Driver A qualifies on Racing Softs
Driver A starts race on Racing Softs
Driver A must use minimum of 1 set of Racing Mediums and Hards during the race
Example 2
Driver B qualifies on Racing Hards
Driver B starts race on Racing Hards
Driver B must use a minimum of 1 set of Racing Mediums and Softs during the race
Example 3
Driver C qualifies on Racing Mediums
Driver C starts race on Racing Mediums
Driver C must use a minimum of 1 set of Racing Hards and Softs during the race
Penalties can vary from warnings, point deductions and to disqualifications.
During the season there are 2 rounds out of the 8 rounds called Sprint races. During a sprint race the
use all tyre compound rule does not apply. However the start on qualifying tyre rule does.
Sprint rounds consist of 3 short races during the one session. The first race uses standard qualifying positions while
race 2 & 3 will use reverse grid based on the previous race result.
Points obtained during a sprint race differ from the standard championship points.
Out of the 3 races each driver must choose which race (1, 2 or 3) they choose to drop the points for.
You can only obtain points from 2 of the 3 races.
It is left to the driver to drop whichever race they obtained the least amount of points in.
To ensure closer racing all around ORS have a 3 tier system.
The way the system will work is by using ballast to ensure the tiers are on parity. See below;
Tier 1
Max Power: 503bhp
Weight: 1280kgs
Performance Points: 600
Tier 2
Max Power: 503bhp
Weight: 1250kgs
Performance Points: 600
Tier 3
Max Power: 503bhp
Weight: 1200kgs
Performance Points: 600
Once you know your Tier (via the season quailifer) you can then apply the required ballast and being pre-season testing.
