• The Driver Listed on the left hand side of each pairing will begin first on the grid. The pairings are made at random.
• Any interference by non participants (drivers taking part in the public race) during the race will sometimes be unavoidable and should therefore be considered as an unavoidable part of the game.

Moving off the track:

• When the race begins, it is important that you move off the racing line in a manner that doesn't interfere with those who are competing in the public race.
• If you are placed on the left side of the grid, you must move off the track and onto the grass. If you are placed on the right side, you must pull over to the pitwall, positioned out the way.
• This must be done while being careful not to impeded other drivers on track. Please practice steering off the racing line, to be sure you are comfortable with it prior to your actual race.

All drivers are solely responsible for any delay in getting to their grid position. If any driver fails to get to their grid position in due time, then the other driver has the right to commence racing at the 15 second start time.

If both drivers fail to reach their designated grid positions before the 15 second start time, then the start time will begin at 20 seconds after the start of the public race.

• It is the responsibility of all driver pairings to initially govern themselves in regard to any racing disputes.
• If any racing dispute cannot be resolved then it is the responsibility of both parties to contact the Race Steward individually by following the race dispute procedure below.
• All disputes must be conducted in a gentlemanly manner and in private.
• The drivers may, at their own discretion, ask another driver to act as a 3rd party observer during their race. The drivers would need to mutually agree upon this, and it is not a requirement.

• Name PM subject title 'Racing Dispute'
• Supply Tag of drivers concerned.

I'm really looking forward to this one, no tuning so it's all down to driver skill...I'm a dead man

Great choice of car and track though 👍

 

[Jack]

Thought it was time trial....

You are able to read, correct?

The first time you asked the question it was answered here.

You then answered and it seemed you understood the rules.

This is a racing competition.

 

[Hyper-Dan]

Thought it was time trial....

[Ghoa$t]

10, 19, 21, 25, and 43 will be interesting.

 

[Obli]

When you say transmission: optional, I guess you mean we can choose auto or manual, but not change the ratios. Just clarifying!

Yeah. Means you can choose if you want auto / manual not changing the gear ratios.

[Nicko]

Awesome! This should be really fun. Nice work Jack. 👍

 

[MeAgainstYou]

i thought at least about 1 pit.. anyway good work jack 👍

 

[Synwraith]

i thought at least about 1 pit.. anyway good work jack 👍

I think with an already delayed start in a 5 lap race, a pit stop would just increase the likelihood of not finishing before the 30 second limit.

All the best
Maz

i think thats not a big problem... the pit through is quick but enough to avoid some slipstreams...

but lets go as it is.. im excited to see the results

 

[steven]

Good luck to all racers in this excellent initiated tournament 👍

[markyboy92]

[Blitz187]

Good luck to everyone participating! 👍

 

[Mad94d]

This looks like fun. Good luck everyone. Now I just need to organise a time to race, difficult for us in Australia(otherside of the planet).

 

[The Outlaw]

Sorry to crash the party but I'm not so sure I like the idea of using a universal tune, especially when it is the default tune which is FAR from ideal, and also considering that there's absolutely no way of enforcing the use of the stock tune. I think it is a bit naive to think that every single person is going to follow the rules, especially if they face a tough opponent....but hey I guess that's just the way it goes. I think it may be better to offer a bunch of tunes to pick from, or at least have a tune that is close to being optimal in performance...but hey that's just my opinion 👍

 

[Boffin]

Ohh dear...It seems I have drawn the short stick and got Spyrrari.
Well, good luck to eveyone else, I'll be watching from the sidelines.

Well, it's true that the setup is far from ideal. But I think that the goal here is to get everyone exactly on the same line. Not to get the ideal/fastest performance from the car.

And also, I think it's naive to even participate in the event if not going to obey the rules. If someone is not going to.. it's their own loss..

Just my opinion. 👍
