Welcome to Season 1 of the Renault Clio Cup!
Championship website
Renault Clio Cups are widely recognized as THE way for young drivers to get into the touring car scene. The equal cars guaranteed close racing and lots of action. When drivers of these cars asked for even more power, Renault gave them the ground-shaking V6 Clio racer. Can you master this piece of outstanding machinery, packed to the limit with F1-tech?
NOTE! Only the Renaultsport Clio/Lutecia Renault Sport Trophy Race Cars are allowed, the Premium road version is not!
The race will be held in my (rallymorten) private lounge as people fail to read the PRIVATE tag when attempting to run the races in public.
Please be in the lounge on time. Weight checks will begin 5 minutes after said time. When these are done for all drivers, 5 minutes of qualifying begins. Please leave at least a few seconds of room between you and the driver ahead.
The Clios may be touring cars, but clean racing is expected. Refer to the GTPlanet OLR for all regulations.
The race week consist of a qualifying session, consisting of two timed laps.
Race 1 grid will be based on the qualifying results.
Race 2 grid will be reverse Race 1 results
Race 3, the longer Feature Race, will have grids based on the results from the first two races. The better you do, the better your start position for the Feature.
When lining up for Race 3, leave the pits in the order announced by rallymorten, and park on the first possible straight. You only need to take notice of who are to be in front of and who behind of you. When you've parked, only the main steward (rallymorten) is allowed to move in order to check if everyone is situated in the correct spot. This procedure should not take more than 2 mins at max.
A part of any race is overtaking. As most other series, dive-bombing will be looked down upon. However, we are aware of the difference between dive-bombing and tucking down on the inside to outbrake a fellow competitor. Under all circumstances, you are to show respect for the one overtaking as well as the overtaken one. Leaving enough room on the track will make any moment less controversial.
Specs
Horsepower: 365
Weight (kg): 1250
Tyres: Sports Soft
Room Settings
Race Quality: Standard
Mic Quality: OFF to prevent unneccesary lag
Draft: Weak
Damage: Light, no visual
]10 minutes prior to start time, the room must be absolutely clear, and you may not enter before the countdown timer for the event reaches 0. Once you are in the room, prepare to have your weight checked right away. Using the chat during this time is not illegal, but when it's your weight being checked, you will have to go to the track instead of finishing your post.
Success Ballast
The Clio Cup will also include success ballast to level the field:
Sprints:
Podium: +20
Top 6: +10
Low 6: -10
Low 3: -20
DNF: no change
Feature:
Winner: +30
Podium: +20
Top 6: +10
Low 6: -10
Low 3: -20
Low 1: -30
The weight penalties will be enforced at the following round.
It is, always has been and always will be, your job to know what your current weight penalty is. When I proceed through the checks, all you need to do is jump into the pits and STAY THERE UNTIL GREEN FLAG FOR QUALIFYING IS GIVEN. As with the Race 3 checks, the stewards will be the only ones allowed to return to the lobby, in order to proceed the weight checks
