General info about races: Our goal is to provide a racing simulation experience for everyone. Real off-road grip, weak slipstream, tire wear on, and yes, heavy damage! ABS is optional.
The potential for damage encourages respect and sportsmanship among everyone, making penalties unnecessary -- GT5's penalty system is easily gamed, often penalizes the victim and does nothing to further the "racing simulation".
The races are usually long enough to require at least one pit for tires and/or gas depending on the car. We also enjoy racing real life cars, and offer a wide range of racing experiences, from VW Buses to F1's, some tuned, some untuned, you name it. Feel free to check out the Facebook ( http://tinyurl.com/GT5-LPP ) page to post race suggestions and say hello!

Qualifying: Qualifying begins as soon as the room is open, will last 15 to 30 minutes.
Because of connection issues and how the game records times, once you have a qualifying time you like, please do not leave or exit the track. Park in the sand or sit in the pits.
Before qualifying ends, I will record everyone's best lap and then call out people to join the track again in the order of qualified position.
Prizes:
- First place (5 car paints, Lvl 9 car ticket)
- Second place (Lvl 9 car ticket)
Actual race notes: Once the "start race" timer finishes, the race is on. No warm up laps. Be aware that people might false start so you may have to avoid some people in the beginning.
Other notes: For the most part, the GTPlanet Online Racing Rules & Guidelines apply with some changes.
1. Bump drafting is allowed where it makes sense.
2. Keep moving on the track, regardless of incident, unless cars behind you are approaching. Time, depending on severity of incident, will be added to your final race time once complaints are filed and replays checked.
3. Drivers that are to be lapped are under no obligations to move out of the way, as long as they are not intentionally blocking. If you're faster, you'll find a way to pass.
