- While we only have 1 room (16) the limits for either class will be 9 GT500 and 7 GT300.
- NOTE: The back up list below is for people who CANNOT commit to the entire series but can do 1-2 races now and again as fill ins. If you want to enter you WILL be in the "locked in 16".
Please note: Some of the contestants do not compete that often and if you enter and prove yourself to be a fast and clean driver we will put you in instead of them!

We at max will have 32 entrants, if we push over 1 full room (16), the field will then be divided equally into group A and group B. Points will be the same for each round. After round 11, the bottom 16, from their respective classes will be eliminated, and the final round will be hosted in one room with the top 9 GT500 and 7 GT300 entrants.

Race "weekends"/meeting layout

- We try and get a race in EVERY weekend on a day & time that suits all racers. Most of the time they are a SATURDAY NIGHT
- 20 minutes of open practice (if necessary)
- 10 minutes of qualifying
- Each race on it's own has it's own distance as can be viewed above ^
- Rolling starts
- 2 mandatory pitstops.

Points system (For both classes)

- 1st - 10 points
- 2nd - 8 points
- 3rd - 7 points
- 4th - 6 points
- 5th - 5 points
- 6th - 4 points
- 7th - 3 points
- 8th - 2 points
- 9th - 1 point
- 10th or lower - 0 points

BONUS POINT FOR POLE POSITION FOR BOTH CLASSES

NOTE: The points for the title are done on YOUR best 9 rounds. At the end of the season you choose you best 9 out of the 12 rounds and they are your points. This is to even it up for late entrants and if you miss a few rounds etc.

After round 11, the top 9 GT500's and top 7 GT300's will go through to the finale. The Grand Valley East Reverse 500. Points for this round will be tripled.

If you miss one round, you will get 0 points, but remember you have to drop 3 at the end of the season anyway!

Rules/regulations

- During an allocated session run, everyone's mic MUST be muted 1 point deduction every time it is heard
- Slipstream strength - weak
- Boost - low
- Penalties - weak
- All driver aids allowed as everyone is different!
- Racing soft tyres are MANDATORY
- Damage - light
- Manual rolling starts
- Tyre & fuel depletion - Normal

ACTIONS THAT WILL RESULT IN PENALTIES
- A damaged car that does not move out of the way of oncoming cars
- If a damaged car causes a crash
- Jumping the start
- Being a d*ckhead on the warm up lap!
- Unsportsmanlike behavior (Late dives at corners etc)
- If A GT300 fights with a GT500
- If a GT500 forcefully touches a GT300
- Failing to complete 2 pit stops
- Having your mic heard for an unnecessary reason
- Weaving after being told to form up before the start
- Failing to remove your car from the track after qualifying

The majority of these incidents will result in a points deduction, denting your chances of making it to the finale, or if it is the final example, you will start from the pitlane. Some will be looked at after the race and can result in:
A - Points deduction
B - Grid penalty for next race
Or C - 1 race Ban


Prizes (For both classes)

- 1st place - 1st place trophy that will be custom made and mailed to you! 1 racing outfit of your choice, inc suit & helmet & $30 PSN VOUCHER!!
GT500 prize car for 1st place - Honda Weider HSV-010
GT300 prize car for 1st place - Toyota WedsSport Celica

- 3rd place - 3rd place trophy that will be custom made and mailed to you! A helmet of your choice and 1 GT auto ticket from BERNSY001 of your choice

- Most improved driver award! - This award is for the most improved driver (obviously!), which is done on votes by everyone who raced at the end of the season. We haven't (as yet) decided on the prize, but like the others, something well worth it and like no other series has to offer!

- Endurance champion (both classes)! - This award goes to the racer with the most points from the 4 endurance events alone. We haven't decided on the prize just yet, but it will sure be worth receiving for slugging it out in the endurance events!

- Allan Simonsen memorial trophy - This award is awarded to the best driver in the final round, The Grand Valley East Reverse 500. Allan was an excellent endurance driver and these skills of pacing yourself etc will have to be used in this two and a half hour marathon. This is voted for by the drivers after the race and they can vote for someone from a different class if they wish.
