Hello and welcome to the FNCC.


This is a unique racing series for a huge amount of cars to run under one set of regs.

This means that the grid will be unbelievably unique.


Rules:

Cars must have a maximum of 197BHP.

Cars must have a minimum weight of 1300KG.

Cars must have a PP limit of 410pp.

No 4WD, MR or RR allowed, No concept cars allowed, no Race cars, TC cars or RM cars allowed.

Sports Softs are the tyres used, even in the rain.

Tyre Wear and Fuel will be on, and room will be set for maximum realism.

Only one car changes are allowed during the season unless your car gets banned.

No driving aids apart from ABS are allowed.


Qualifying:


* At 7PM GMT (8PM BST) we will start qualifying. The qualifying session will last 15 minutes and the race will automatically start.

*Once you have entered the track for qualifying, you are not allowed to back out to change your set up.

*When you come out of the pits, make sure you stay within the lines. Failure to do so may result in a penalty.

*Be respectful to fellow race drivers. If you are on a fast lap, you shouldn't really be expected to move out of the way for someone else, but excessively holding someone up is frowned upon, especially if you are not on a flying lap.

*Make sure you leave a gap between you and other drivers so incidents do not occur. If you do your best to stay away from others on the track in qualifying, you can't complain about being held up.



Warm Up Laps and Rolling Starts:


*At the start of each race, the cars will set off at cruise speed (60 - 80 MPH) around the track for one lap.

*No overtaking is allowed on the outlap, and the car on pole will control the pace.

*Tyre warming is not allowed on the Warm Up lap.

*Races are rolling starts. Cars will drive around two wide and as soon as each car crosses the Start/Finish line, the race is on!



Race​

*There are two races a night, one is 15 minutes long and one is 30 minutes long. Race one will start at 8:16 BST after qualifying and half points are awarded. After a 5 minute interval after race one, race two will start. Race Two is reverse grid and has a madnatory pit stop.

*If you hit a driver off of the track or cause them to spin, pull to the side of the circuit to let them through again.

*Nudges and taps are generally accepted in motorsport, however, pushing someone wide to gain a place will earn you a penalty.

* Do not quit the race midway in anger.

* Backmarkers have to let race leaders through.

* Upon entering and leaving the pits, stay within the white/yellow lines.

* If you have suffered due to one of these rules being broken, do NOT talk about it in the chat. Simply file the complaint towards one of the stewards and wait for a decision to be made. We do not want any animosity between racers.

I know we will need to ban some cars before the series is over, but it could be fun.
I will do some testing and will "tentatively" sign up as a reserve.

Are MR and RR cars "OK", and just how much "detuning" can we do?

Can we change cars after race 1?
 
As long as the cars are 2WD and your car can get within the specs (411pp and 200BHP/1300kg) then it is in the regs.

Probably going to say, only one car change per season... but then loads of people will flock to one car...

I'm in as long as it takes until NASCAR Trucks re-commences...
 
Wait, any limit on de-tuning with power limiter and ballast?
 
Well I'd miss the 3rd and 10th of August as I'm away but I'll have a crack at all the other races if I'm around, should be a laugh :)
 
Yep, sounds good. May set a start date for next weekend at this rate. :p
 
I suppose most would be doing detuned cars, but I don't care, should be a blast.
 
OK, after going though the list of oviouse choices I can safely say I found a car faster than a moded 86 ;)
Do we have a max or "upper limit" weight? My car's a little over 1300kg.
 
There is no maximum weight limit or Minimum BHP limit, just as long as it fits within 411BHP and weighs a minimum of 1300KG and has a maximum of 200BHP it's fine. ;)


Would like it if noone tells eachother their car so we are all surprised at eachothers choices. ;)
 
At least with the SS tires we all have so much grip that it makes only the engine really important.
 
Yeh, I'm up for this - sounds like it should be a laugh. I wonder if anybody turns up in the same car!
Suppose wanting to keep the cars a surprise would make it difficult to run a test session?? Unless anybody would want to free run and test a few different cars?

Edit: do I need to add anybody's PSN?
 
I better start doing some testing then. Think I might go in a slower car and tune the hell out of it :sly:

Flimbo you will need to add GTP_DaxCobra as he will be hosting every race.
