- As stated above the Elite Sports Car Endurance Championship is in its early stages of development. These races will be on Sundays at 4:30 pm US EST. This series will have a multi class structure utilizing the LMP1 chassis`s with the GT3/GTE chassis`s. Comment on this thread or message chadbaseball15 if interested.

The Championship

- The championship consists of 6 rounds using all LMP1 and GT3 chassis`s.

- The rounds are held every other Sunday with qualifying beginning at 4:45 US EST.

- The main lobby race distances are between 1 hour and 2-hour time limits. The 2nd lobby will be half of the main lobbies distance unless told otherwise.



Car Setup

- Setups will be allowed for this league.

- No driver assists


Practice

- Practice will be scheduled between 30 minutes - 1 Hour depending on the demand.


Qualifying

- One 30 minute round.

- Each class will have their own Qualifying lobby.

- The top 8 in each class will qualify for the main lobby race.

- The bottom 8 will be eligible for the 2nd lobby race.

- In qualifying, 2 points will be awarded to the driver who wins pole position in each class.


Race Control

A1 - This championship will utilize a safety car/caution if needed. Cautions will be called when there is at least one car stopped or turned around because of an incident with another competitor and it results in damage. All cautions will be reviewed at the end of the race. If race control has decided that the incident did not merit a caution then the person who called the caution will be penalized. If race control feels as though a driver caused a caution on purpose to better their chances at success in the race they will be penalized.


A2 - Cautions in the second half of a race will be called for accidents of 3 or more cars that result in damage. Any lapped cars involved will not be allowed to get their lap back - regardless of whether or not the accident was their fault.


A3 - There will be no cautions in the last 30 minutes of the race.


B1 - If a driver has caused multiple incidents that were avoidable they will serve a green flag pass through pit lane. If the issue continues that driver will be kicked and banned for 1 race.


B2 - If a driver is either jumping or causing contact on restarts, it is in race controls discretion to either send the driver to the rear of the field or to restart from pit lane.

C1 - The start of the race will be double file with the leader choosing the side he would like to start on. All restarts will be single file.


C2 - Caution speed is 75 MPH unless race control decides otherwise.


D1 - Car "resets" are not to be used unless a vehicle is upside down, or stuck on a wall or object for a minimum of 5 seconds. Any car caught resetting without meeting the criteria just explained will be disqualified from the race. This rule is in place because avoiding damage is unfair, and a car appearing on track can disrupt other drivers.


D2 - Any car using a reset is responsible for making sure the track is clear, if a driver resets in front of another car and causes that driver to lose time or crash as a result, the incident will be reviewed and a penalty for the resetting car will be assessed based on severity.


E1 - In the event of an incident on track, the driver at fault is required to admit fault, If no one admits fault, or it isn`t agreed upon by all drivers involved that it was a racing incident without blame, all drivers involved will be penalized. A post race review of the incident will then take place, and the driver found at fault will receive a stiff penalty.


E2 - If a driver leaves a race in which they`ve been blamed for multiple incidents that they haven`t owned up too, the replay will be reviewed, and if the drivers making the claim are wrecked by a ghost car, the driver that left will be suspended one race. You have 12 hours from the end of the race to message chadbaseball15, Doot_Due or Mega_Driver_24 and admit fault, in the event that you did not leave the race by choice. After 12 hours all penalties are final.

E3 - List of Penalties (Per Race) - First incident, warning or put to rear before restart. Second incident, driver will restart from pits, or pass through pit road under green if it is the 2nd half of the race. Third incident, driver is parked for the remainder of the race. 0 points if the driver leaves the lobby.


E4 - Reviews - Reviews will be done by third party unbiased officials who are not entered in the league.

What length of races are you looking at running? How much practice, quali, etc? Basically how long will a full event last?

Similar to the Elite IndyCar, Elite Formula C, Elite Formula One, and Elite Cup leagues practice will be on your own. We may open a lobby for practice but it won't be required. Qualifying will last 15 mins. Races will be between 1 hour and 45 minutes to 2 hours and 40 minutes.

So roughly 2-3 hours for the full event? That's all I was kind of looking for...wasn't sure if you were aiming to have much longer sessions or what.

But 2-3 hours, I can handle. Consider me very interested :)
