Had a great time with the first race of the season while I didn’t do so great in the second race overall I was pleased with my performance. This was my 1 ever pole and race win in this league so it was a huge achievement for me. I felt I had the pace to win this event however that’s the beauty of racing.. you just never know the outcome, So taking second overall is ok. Congrats to @Worst_Driver for the solid performance in both races! I took some pictures and I have replay on track for the 1st lap. Thanks for the great event @llNovall!

I will be hosting practice sessions in the afternoons periodically over the next few weeks, and am sure there will be other rooms open during the evening prime-time. Get those laps in and be ready.

Track Map and Boundaries
View attachment 1313244

Keep 2 wheels on or within the white line where curbing is not present, or on the curbs where they are present at all times, except where it is specifically noted otherwise. The white line and curbing is considered legal track surface. Failure to comply to track boundaries could result in penalties if infractions are witnessed and reported.

Exceptions and Specified areas:
1.) At Turn 1 (The 90), Turn 8 (Heel), and Turn 10: These corners have paved run off areas. ALL drivers are to make their best efforts to keep at least 2 wheels on the curbing at all times. Infractions should be reported if it appears obvious that a driver is deliberately and/or repeatedly running excessively wide out of bounds in these corners. An occasional off or slight OOB's will not garner a penalty. Please use your best judgement.

REMINDER
For any drivers that care to participate in displaying their Driver Standing for next event, please see the spoiler tab below for details. Please verify your current driver standing on the driver profile page (3rd Post in this thread) or quick reference it in the Spotters Guide above. Please be sure to update your livery prior to each event. If in doubt, simply remove the numbers before the event. See the Spoiler tab below:

Spoiler: Driver Standing Recognition Numbers

Driver Standings Recognition
Drivers will be encouraged, not required, to display their current driver standing going into each event after Event #1, though there will be a few rules and requirements.
Drivers who are interested in diplaying their current standing, should collect the following green digital numbers 0-9.

After scoring is finalized and Post Race report issued, drivers will be cleared to edit their driver standing on their number board along with any award tags. Drivers should apply their Standing on both side's boards and be sure their number is in line with their actual standing in the Championship.
Should look like this:

Rules and requirements:
To maintain accuracy and integrity to this recognition, drivers who choose to add their standing to their car will be required to submit an updated profile picture before each event with their scrutineering tuning sheet. Submissions will be reviewed post event just as I do for the driver regulations.
Drivers can submit this to me at my PSN - NOVA-0479 anytime leading up to the next event.
If a driver forgets to submit the car picture with a standing displayed or has the wrong standing placement displayed , it will result in a 5 point penalty against the overall event score. This has to be in place to ensure that those who want to display their standing, maintains the attention and accuracy for it to be credible.
If choosing to display, be sure your edited livery is correct, accurate, and saved prior to each event. If unsure or not interested in displaying your standing, simply leave it blank or just apply double zeros.
The profile pictures will not be used for the Driver profile page, only for scrutineering to maintain the integrity of this recognition.
Again, this is optional, but if done correctly, it will be a great way to know who is where in the standings as the season unfolds.
