Introduction
As all of my friends and others know by now, I am undergoing a second battle with ovarian cancer. Because of this, I have to drop all forseeable future racing plans beyond the end of June. I want my last official race of 2015 to be among friends and I want it to be a clean, festive event. With that said, this event will be exclusive to those on my PSN friends list, as well as those I have raced with previously that are trustworthy enough to not spoil an event.Car Rules
The car rules are very simple. All that is required for those racing is a Red Bull X2014 Standard, available in the Gran Turismo dealership for 3 million credits, racing soft tires, and an oil change. All cars will be left untuned in all aspects and the power limiter will be brought to 50%, which means we will be racing at 419 horsepower.Safety Car Rules
A safety car period system (for ovals it's simply a caution) will be used for the case that I actually have people show up. Cautions will be used in accidents where multiple cars are involved and there are stranded vehicles in the way of potential traffic. Pace speed will be 55 mph, and safety car periods will last for three laps. During those laps, pit lane will be open at all times to all drivers. I will be looking for a safety car driver to help enforce this system.Qualifying Rules
Qualifying will be held right before the race in 15 minute long session attached to the 200 lap race itself. All competing drivers must run laps so the safety car is pushed to the back of the field at the start.Race Rules
The race will start immediately from the moment drivers gain control of their vehicles. No formation laps will be required as the field will be set to a rolling start x2 file. It is stressed that leading the first lap will not win you the race and there isn't a reward for it. This is a test of endurance and to figure out who the better strategists and smart drivers are. I will allow officials from other series to use this race to evaluate drivers and if they are to be allowed to race for them. Please take this serious. Being an imbecile will only make this whole thing longer and very boring.Entry Regulations
It is recommended that everyone use different colors to help identify teams and factions present. Numbers won't be necessary and I will keep record of drivers and nations present. As stated above, you'll need to be invited by either myself or someone given authority to do so.Day Planner
