Laps: 30

Prize: 1:st place will get ONE car of hes choice up to a value of 500.000cr. from the New Car dealeships provided by me!

The startprocedure will be:
During freerun every player will see a list on hes right, stating what position you currently posess according to your best lap (If you exit freerun mode your time will be erased and you will end up last in that list as you reconnect to the freerun from the lounge). So when you are saticfied with your Q-time, just park the car somewhere on the track where you don't interfear with other drivers.

IMPORTANT: Remember the name of the players ahead and behind you according to the list on your right before race starts. Also remember the driver 2 spots ahead of you, since that car is going to be infront of you when the grid split up in two lanes before the start.

Race start: When countdown reaches zoro: DO NOT MOVE! I'll write the positions on the chat, then take of one by one in a SLOW pace (accelerations and brakings to get temperature in your tyres is allowed) for one lap. The poleposition car will serve as a "pace car" during the formation lap. From the last chicane, the polecar have to keep a SLOW and STEADY (no accelerations or braking) pace. From here on, form a 2 lane grid with the polecar on the inside lane. So the odd numbers will start at the right side of the track, and the even numers on the left side. When the poleposition car reach the startline the race is on! NOTE: NO overtaking is allowed before the startline! So if you i.e starts as car number 8, you can not start before car number 7 a.s.o. So keep an eye on the car ahead of you, and don't look at the poleposition car (If you're not in 2:nd ofc) during the start.

The race will be set to 31 laps including the formationlap. So the actual race will run over 30 laps. Estimated racetime 50-55 minutes.

Make sure that you fully understand the rules, regulations and startprocedure!

Rules and regulations: https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=111241&highlight=gtp+rules

IMPORTANT: 2 wheels must always be inside or touching the white line at all times (aprt from when airborne). A curb is considered part of the white line in this perticular event. A green area, concrete area or any other area on the outside of the curb or white line is NOT concidered as within tracklimits

All accidents/cornercutting reported or noticed will be judged, and if found quilty a 10 sec penalty as a standard will apply. The poportion of the incident will ofc play a mayor part in what penalty is decided. But as a standard penalty: 10 sec is added to your total racetime.

IMPORTANT: If you need to go to the pits because of damage, meke sure you stay out of the racing line on your way to the pits. Failing o do so may result in a penalty.

A protest must be reported before 13/1-2011 at 11:59 AM (GMT). Official results will be posted in this thread no later than 13/1-2011 at 4.00 PM (GMT).

This is a competative race! But do not forget that clean racing and respect for your fellow drivers ALWAYS comes first! Positions is secundary!

Anyone interested? Add your PSN in the thread and the car of your choice.

I will host the race in my lounge. In that way we don't get public players in the room to interfear with our race.

Add me on PSN: chorda (It's a lot easyer if you add me, so I don't need to put all your names in. Will take me forever)

NOTE: I'll not accept any friend request from 4.30 pm GMT to 7.30 PM GMT because of me being out for football practice :) So don't worry if you hav not been accepted by that time. I will accept who that are on the list for the race as soon as I get home tonight.

Hi, I use my Nismo Z ´06

PSN: eppe00
 
from what i read it sounds like you want to do a rolling grid start x2, why not just set it that way in the configuration?

I don't think it's possible to set a rolling start where the laptimes from freerun is used to position the cars.. or is it?
 
If You set in Your Lounge-> Event Settings -> Grid Order -> Fastest First, We dont need a rolling start at all, if it feels difficult to do.

People just stay on the track after qualifying session.
 
I'd love to enter, but any chance that there might be a GT300 sub category?
 
First post updated! Regarding track limitations, penaltys and protests.

If there is an interest for GT300 to enter and I can't fill 16 spots with GT500's, so sure. I'll keep it open for now and decide later. Have to get a feel for the interest among GT500's first 👍
 
well if there isnt count me in, but in the GT300 class.

No, I belive that setting only works if you had a race before. And then the computer reverses the final standings from the previous race.

I'm not sure.. But I think I'm right :nervous:

Anyone know if it works?

The starting procedure as I posted in the OP is not that complicated, really. But if it works as some of you say. Then that method shall be used 👍

Will do! 👍

If you talk to some GT300 drivers and they report their interest for this race here in this thread, I'd love to have GT300's in 👍
 
4/10 spots taken!

So far: chorda, eppe00, C-Falcon89, nycrom

There is 3 different options in Grid Order, Fastest First is depending on Your Free Run laptime, then there is Slowest First and finally Reverse Grid Based on Previous Race Results.

So the Fastest First works as Qualifying method, so long everybody stays on the track until the Race starts.
So if You go back to the Lounge for doing changes to Your car You have to do a new lap, otherwise You start last.

You can though exit from the Free Run to Pitlane, but there You don´t see how You are positioned in the Free Run Qualifying..So I´d say it is best to find a good place somewhere on the track, wherefrom You could fast enter the track again to do a fast lap.

Hope You understand my Finnglish:)

Are you 100% sure?

If it works, that's the way we do it next time. I don't want to confuse drivers. So easyest right now is to stay with the rules stated in the OP. The result is the same either way. But I have to say that the formationlap ads A LOT to the experience.
 
Can i use a standard car for the GT300??

If so i'm in with my Celica.

If not i got to think if i buy a Premium GT300, or if i go with the GTR for the GT500.

Either way, count me in. 👍

We had a discution earlier in the thread about including GT300's. I'm not against it. But as it seems right now it's only you and lb1990. So for now I have to ask you to use your premium GT500. Stay tuned to the thread, because if 2 or 3 more GT300 shows up. I'll make space for GT300's in the race. 👍
 
First post updated regarding GT300's.

Also, don't forget to add me on PSN. It's great that you guys post your interest here. But it will take me forever to add all of you, since I won't have so much time later tonight. So please, just add me and I'll accept it during the day.

Great idea with a one off endurance race. More racing, less prep.

I try to join but don't know yet if I have the time, so I will not reserve a slot (yet).
