PURE | GATE 2 - GT300 - Season winners - tony1311 and Team Wedssport

If someone can give me the trans top speed for the Subaru and watch my lap it should be enough time wise. Also as you changed my car I need to go buy a turbo for the P Subaru :P

Sorry Stretch,
You are too late. It's going to be D2.
The Subaru 08 doesn't have a turbo.

This series isn't OLR we simply adopted certain parts of it.

actually it would... no you and no jason puts me on D2 pole rather than the last car in D1. :(


---------- In other news.

rosckolove asked me for a second opinion on his lap.
Unfortunately it is dirty. 4-off exiting turn 2.


Yeah, I was dropping the expected (given our practice laps) 0.5 through the s2 and s3 tunnels. But easily got it all back in the tractor beam every lap.
Before we went into the turn1 bend I was actually bouncing my 6th gear... and it's set to 166 mph. :embarrassed:

We didn't determine this section of track was off limits. I've always thought we would treat that extra patch of material the same as the yellow/beige stuff along the left side of the track at Tsukuba.

Jason did the same thing and I called his lap clean btw. There's nothing in the notes about it btw.

Track boundaries for all races in GATE 2 are universally defined as follows:
The white lines along the edge of the track are considered to be the track boundaries. These lines continue onto the rumble strips at each corner. At no point should there be no more than two wheels over those lines/rumble strips. two tires must remain in contact with the track at all times. The preceding defines the "track." hard surfaces beyond white lines and curbing/rumble strips such as concrete, "greencrete", or turf and other run off is not considered to be track. White lines, curbing/rumble strips are track and even if you only have two tires on their very edges (to be reviewed and confirmed by as steward) it will be considered clean.

There's a few spots to be extra careful at.
Turn 5 kink, be sure to keep 2 wheels on the rumble strips.
turn 7 exit and turn 8, same again, keep 2 wheels on the rumble strips, the concrete patches beyond the rumbles is out of bounds.
turn 12 exit before the bridge, the white line is a road marking and not a track boundary, it is ok to cross that line.
turn 15, keep 2 wheels on the rumble strips
turn 16 exit, the large concrete patch is not part of the track, be sure to keep 2 wheels on the rumble strips.

Every concrete patch beyond a kerb is considered out of bounds. And the generic description says that it's out of bounds even though this particular corner wasn't called out.
 
But it's not concrete. That's the main thing.

It's not the same color as the real material we're worried about, which is the classic grey concrete patches around turns 7 and 8.

But it is a hard surface... damn.

Well I'm a useless idiot.
 
I've always considered that stuff as track.

≡New Procedure ≡
Before the race, if you have a problem seeing everyone on track please tell the host. If there is a problem, certain drivers may be asked to leave the room and re-set their equipment (PS3 , Router and clear the cache). Hopefully, that will resolve the problem. Unfortunately, if a driver is unable to see everyone and be seen by everyone, they may be asked to sit out the race.

≡Flag Marshals ≡
If an incident similar to the one shown in the video happens, a restart will be allowed.
Once the grids are confirmed, we will be appointing Flag Marshals who will be able to call a restart. The Marshals will be chosen according to grid position.
Before the race the host will make the room aware of who the marshals are for the race. This information will also be displayed in the thread on raceday.

≡Track Notes ≡

Track boundaries for all races in GATE 2 are universally defined as follows:
The white lines along the edge of the track are considered to be the track boundaries. These lines continue onto the rumble strips at each corner. At no point should there be no more than two wheels over those lines/rumble strips. two tires must remain in contact with the track at all times. The preceding defines the "track." hard surfaces beyond white lines and curbing/rumble strips such as concrete, "greencrete", or turf and other run off is not considered to be track. White lines, curbing/rumble strips are track and even if you only have two tires on their very edges (to be reviewed and confirmed by as steward) it will be considered clean.

This rule is, of course, also pertinent to both regular season qualifying and the group qualifying to be held especially for the pre-season event. And this also applies to marked pit lane entry and exit lines. Do not cross them.

≡Track Specific ≡

Pit Entry: Only thing to keep in mind is to not enter too fast. The game will penalise you or even hold you in the pits with no release. DO NOT use any barriers or walls as guide or to gain time/speed.

Pit Exit: Make sure to respect the white pit exit lines. You can cross them, but only if you're 100% sure that the track is clear.
As always, if an incident occurs as a result from a driver crossing the line (Either the one on track, or the one exiting the pits), it is the driver that crossed the line who is at fault
​

≡Running Wide ≡

There's a few spots to be extra careful at.
  1. Turn 5 kink, be sure to keep 2 wheels on the rumble strips.
  2. Turn 7 exit and turn 8, same again, keep 2 wheels on the rumble strips, the concrete patches beyond the rumbles is out of bounds.
  3. Turn 12 exit before the bridge, the white line is a road marking and not a track boundary, it is ok to cross that line.
  4. Turn 15, keep 2 wheels on the rumble strips
  5. Turn 16 exit, the large concrete patch is not part of the track, be sure to keep 2 wheels on the rumble strips.
≡Fuel ≡

The in-game fuel calculator doesn't function correctly. You must do a test run of approx half distance and calculate your own fuel usage. If you follow the guidelines set by the game, you will run out of fuel

A staggered double-file line is used for our rolling start for the first lap after which the race will begin at the start/ finish line.
oQpyV.png
( First time pole sitters will be contacted for confirmation of the following regulations)
  • Pole sitter will begin on the left side of the track.
  • Even number position qualifiers will be on the right side lane of the formation. Odd number qualifiers will be in the pole sitters lane on the left side.
  • Once the GT5 race countdown has completed and the race event has begun all drivers must hold position and wait for confirmation from the host to proceed. Use your handbrakes, sit silently, report any suspicious latency between cars or lag jolting/skipping. After the host has given the go ahead all drivers will begin to slowly form up in qualifying order. The leader must act as gatherer, they must not pre-maturely advance from the group, it is their job to keep the pace slow enough until all cars are in position then proceed to formation speed.
  • Even pace at 100 kmh / 62 mph,
  • The pole leader must wait for the grid to line up behind them completely on the start straight before starting the race by applying full throttle at the start/finish line.
  • No weaving is allowed during formation lap.
  • You must not overlap the car ahead of you.
  • Do not pass any car until you're past the point the pole sitter started the race at.
  • Jump starters will be given warnings or penalties depending on severity.
  • If a driver is damaged on formation then the damaged driver must communicate this through text chat and continue at a reasonable speed to the pit area. The other cars will continue on as normal and the damaged car(s) can join the group as they come around for their first lap. At this point the formation lap will continue on for a second lap after which the race will begin. If it happens once more, the same contingency will be applied and a third formation lap will go on. After this, no more "formation restarts" will be acceptable and the affected drivers must either retire or start far behind the group. Drivers experiencing extreme lag will be asked to leave so the other drivers can race.
  • If, for any reason, a driver misses the formation start and stays behind still on the track the race will not go on, it must be restarted to eliminate the obstacle.
