Playoff Tournament
Welcome to the big show. It comes down to this. A grueling championship road of ten races starting back in February has led us to the final 16 who will go head to head for a chance at claiming the fantastic top prize of a rSeat EVO S3 Racing cockpit!
There will be stress, there will be intense scrutiny, heartbreak, glory, success and closure for all. This is what racing is all about - the Grand Prix.

.: Playoff format :.
The car:
You can not tune the car, you must use the default settings exactly as shown. The only thing you're allowed to change is the brake balance and power level, which must be set to 87.9% in order to make the tournament regulations for the car.
*Note: Every one must buy a new car for this tournament. These figures are from a brand new car with no oil change. You must do the same in order to apply the correctly stated power limiter percentage. If you continue on to further rounds you must buy yet another car.
________________________________________
The tracks:
Round 1 - 6 laps of Nurburgring GP/D. Best of 3.
Round 2 - 6 laps of Laguna Seca. Best of 3.
Final rounds - 3 laps of Suzuka. Best of 5
________________________________________
The settings:
*All car settings must be default, exactly as shown in the car graphic above. The only setting you may change is brake balance. Any other setting changed will not allow you to go on track. Changing the power level is the only other setting that GT allows tuning prohibited cars to make, but here you must comply with the stated value of 87.9% in order to meet the power regulation.

The first playoff week will start this Saturday where any driver pairs can work out a race time with eachother.
The playoffs will be held over two weeks starting from the 14th of April.
Every one will have from the 14th of April to the deadline of the 21st of April @ Midnight PDT to submit results for classification. This will be Tournament week Round 1.
- First week
Denilson, Wardez, twistedfirework, Josh1994, Paulmac2k9, Andil, Paginas1, Biffy.
A steward must be present in the racing room for the race to be official.
All races of the tournament will be held in WSGTC Private lounges. Driver pairs are free to select whichever account's lounge to race in.
- Second week
Round 2 will go from the 21st of April till Wednesday the 25th which is the deadline (Midnight PDT -7 GMT) for result submissions.
After results are tabulated new semi-final bracket drivers will be named for the final showdown on the 28th of April. Rounds "3 and 4" (semi-finals and finals) will be held on the same track on the same day. The final four will meet on the 28th of April at 20:00 GMT for the Tournament finals in a specified WSGTC Private Lounge. The two driver pairs will race one after the other in the same room then the two remaining drivers will face off for the grand prize.
Race format:
Each race will be a series of 20km sprints. Drivers will begin from a standing start where pole position will be randomly assigned according to pit box placement with the event settings grid order being set to "fastest first."The driver who wins 2 out of 3 races for the first 2 rounds and 3 out of 5 races in the finals will be declared the winner and advance to the next round. Whoever starts on pole for the first race will then start second for the following race then all subsequent races will be the reverse of the initial grid positioning. This will be set by the drivers and supervising steward either by using the "reverse grid based on previous result" setting or by resetting the track and lining up manually to use the "fastest first" option for the correct gridding.
No pitting is necessary. All drivers must go on to complete the full distance of each race unless clearly told otherwise by a supervising steward. So do not simply stop running if your opponent has crashed out, continue on.
Elimination rules:
If a driver causes a crash, or the other driver to go off, and is deemed to be at fault, he will forfeit that specific race and the other driver automatically wins. We'll need to have an available steward overseeing the race. So the driver pairs will have to come to us with their chosen race time during the week and will be assigned a steward that is able to oversee it at the time requested. A racing incident where both drivers are mutually at fault will be called a draw, and the next race will be started - they will continue on until there's a best of three.
If a driver is able to pull a twenty second gap on the other, then he automatically wins (this must be called during the race by a steward). This "gap win" will only be acceptable if the other driver had an accident by no effort other than their own or simply lacked pace.
If a racing incident that decides the winner can not be resolved then the steward will bring a replay of the event to non-participating staff in order to make a decision to then continue on with the tournament. Standard CODE OF RACING CONDUCT rules will apply.
If a driver forfeits their playoff position before they complete their first round race, the driver next in line in the championship will take their place.
