Race distance for most events will be approximately 2 hours (Laps calculated for LMP completion time). Some special events will last 3 hours, exact lap count will be disclosed in the build up to each race.
Soft tyres are unlimited through out the race.
Medium tyres Must be used for a minimum of 40mins of a race.
If weather is used on a track then intermediates and rain tyres will be used, and after the rain has dried up then soft’s may be used till the end.
Tire rule, 40 minutes must be completed on the Medium tire, This must be done in a continuous stream, even if you need to pit during your 40 minute stint you are required to complete the 40 minute window, This does not include the pace lap, the pace lap time will be taken from the total of minutes when adding things up,
Weather conditions, The race will be declared wet at 25% track water, this means you are not required to do the 40 minutes on harder tire rule,
QUALIFYING AND RACE INFORMATION
Qualifying will be a 15 minute session followed by the race countdown timer for all circuits, except for longer special events, in which will have a 20 minute qualifying followed by a 5 minute break for you to sort your food, fluid and bathroom commitments for an endurance event.
Also, the field will not be cleansed after qualifying, so if you are in an LMP car and have a horrible run you cannot expect to be bumped up to the back of the LMP field, you will start where your qualifying time dictates.
The Races, All races will have 1 full pace lap, unless detailed otherwise in the drivers briefing, Or a restart is required, full restart procedure detailed further on,
The Pace Lap, Pace speed will be dictated by the pole sitter, This will be capped at 80MPH, Then reduced to 40MPH for the final part of the circuit to bunch the field and allow a proper 2 x 2 formation rolling to the start,
Race start, The race will be started at the desired time of the pole sitter, However the entire field must be on the start/ finish straight and the pole sitter must be in the painted grid slots, Memto89 or Jonnyb1990 will call green over the headset when the pole sitter decides to bolt, the race will then be green,
For the GTE class, The race will finish at the first full completed lap after the LMP car has started the count down, This is to discourage dive bombing moves that may or may not gain you a place in the last seconds of the count down timer, However you guys can continue racing for your GT5 prizes until the countdown has finished.
RACE START PROCEDURE
+) Cars will roll at pace speed around the circuit,
+) The leaders will slow pace to bunch the field up prior to the final turn of the warm up lap,
+) once the field is bunched the leaders will proceed through the final turn onto the front straight,
+) When the 2 lead cars are on the painted grid lines it is up to the pole winner to start the race, They can start the race from any point on the painted grid lines to the start line,
+) If they cross the start line and haven't gone then the race is green, their loss,
I'n summary, the pole winner dictates the pace lap, at pace speed, They have to ensure the field is bunched up, (near as makes no difference as some drivers will tail back to ensure their own safety in turn 1, once the leader gets to the painted grid slots its their choice to go, if they get to the start line and haven't gone then the race will also go green,
(Bare in mind that these may change race to race, so suit the track we are racing on, these will be released in the driver's briefing one week out from the event,)
OVERTAKING AND LAPPING
Be patient, overtaking points will come, You will never win the race on lap 1,
Lapping, GTE cars will be expected to maintain their line, It is up to their discretion to get out of an LMP cars way, "removing" them from the circuit will result in a penalty,
This is a championship, Points will only be awarded for top 5 only in each class, Bonus points maybe awarded for, Class Pole Position, class fastest lap, And class most laps led, and leading a lap at the start line,
DISCONNECTION RESTARTS
In the event of a mass disconnection, we will restart the race, however for this to happen,
+) 2 or more people must disconnect within 30 seconds for a restart to be called,
+) there must be a minimum 40% of the race remaining to be completed,
+) If there is 30% or less of the race to complete the race will be called to the lap prior of the dc and that is the order in which points will be dealt,
How this will work,
+) We will post on the thread Mass DC, 20 minutes to restart, (If everyone returns it will be earlier)
+) Everyone who dc'd will go clear their cache and reset router and return to the room,
+) The room will be set to a percentage of the remaining laps, Minimum 33%
+) Everyone will use racing soft tires for the restart, it is not required to use the harder option,
+) The room will be set to 'Standing start with false start check',+) once everyone has returned and things are ok we will go out on track and park in the order of which the dc occurred,
+) The race will start and we will go on green, No warm up lap!

WARNINGS AND PENALTIES
Penalties will be dealt with accordingly per class steward, I TDZdave am the head steward, Memto89 is the LMP steward and Johnnyb is the GTE steward.
Warm up lap, Leaving big gaps will result in a 10 second penalty added to your overall time, Avoidable contact and causing a collision will be classified under the same rules for the race, resulting in a 1 minute penalty for either offence,
Racing incidents, For obvious reasons contact will happen in racing, most of these will go with a warning, or a 30 second penalty maybe given,
Causing a collision/ Avoidable contact, will result in a 1 minute penalty to the offending driver,
If an LMP causes a GTE car to spin or crash while lapping them, the LMP driver will be given a 1 minute penalty for avoidable contact.
Blocking, Will be frowned upon, you are allowed one move per straight, and 1 car width must be left as a gap, Malicious blocking will result in a 1 minute penalty for each offence,
Blue Flags, If you find yourself being lapped by a car in your class, it is expected that you allow them to pass where applicable as soon as applicable, Ignoring blue flags will result in a 1 minute penalty for each lap they are ignored,
White lines in and out of the pits are monitored and will be a 10 second penalty for crossing. If all 4 wheels cross the line then a 30 second penalty will be imposed, All 4 wheels must remain in the white line unless it has been noted by the stewards that 2 wheels may cross.
Extended, There are instances where the AI will try spit you across the circuit, please make sure you view the drivers briefing to be aware of circuit specific rules,
Corner cutting, Two wheels must remain on the black stuff at all times, (or curbing) If it is deemed by us that you have been cutting corners you will be served a 10 second penalty for each offence,
Circuit specific rules, Will be posted in the drivers briefing, this will outline track limits and rules regarding the unique situation of requiring the rule, penalties will be in place for not adhering to the rule, most will be from the above unless something else is required for the unique situation,
Rules and penalties extended, Now 95% of you already adhere to the rules, specially after being penalized for breaching them, this is showing that the rules and penalties are equal for everyone, please do not be afraid of them, and unless otherwise told, continue doing what your doing,
If you are not sure if you have received a penalty or warning from an event, They will be published at the bottom of the OP, they will be published by Monday evening after the race, If we have yet to come to a decision it will be published as TBD,
Also, Do not arrive in a "Hybrid" or "Hacked" vehicle, you will be removed on the spot! NO EXCEPTIONS!
