Snail FIA Manufacture Challenge
This is to put your Manufacture choice up against the rest of the SNAIL team.
Read carefully as some of the details have changed!!
Official race nights are for Snail Members ONLY! This is the FIA rules package with a little twist to it to spice it up a bit. The laps would mirror the FIA scheduled distance. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE RUNNING THE OFFICIAL FIA MANUFACTURE SERIES NOR WILL YOU NEED TO BE SIGNED UP WITH A MANUFACTURE TO RUN THIS EVENT. If you are wanting to change your manufacture of choice in the next season you could use this as a test run if you want. You will however need to choose your car wisely PRIOR to entering the room. You will not be allowed to change your vehicle once you enter the room the first time. Your name and car will be documented and you must run the entire night in that car.
How this will work: There will be 3 total races ran which will be the next 3 scheduled events for FIA.
Roster for race night!

The lobby will be open at 8:30 EST if you are not in the room by 9:00 EST then you automatically are out of this challenge. At 9:05 the host(s) will be in contact with one another via party chat on PSN. We then verify everyone has the correct car who is in these rooms. At this point we will determine if the lobbies are fair for the event and will even out the rooms. During this time everyone is available to practice on track until 9:10 when we start qualifying. Qualifying will run 10 minutes to get your best lap possible. Anyone who is driving recklessly and attempting to ruin others times will be immediately removed from the lobby and will not be allowed to run the next scheduled challenge. Qualifying will end abruptly at 9:20 and everyone is to stay on track!!
The Qualifying will be documented and then There will be a Dice roll to determine the "invert" for the race. The host(s) will then need to set the grid order according to the invert. For example: 1 on the dice is the 1st and 2nd will swap. 6 on the dice means that pole position will then start 12th. and the rest will invert as well. The last 2 rows will start as they qualified in the event that a 6 is rolled. You may ask "Why an invert?" Below will tell all.
points will be as follows:
1-25 5-12 9-8 13-4
2-21 6-11 10-7 14-3
3-18 7-10 11-6 15-2
4-15 8-9 12-5 16-1
If you qualify pole in your lobby you will be awarded 1 bonus point. If you have the fastest lap out of all the lobbies you will be awarded an additional 1 point.
Passing points will be added to the final totals each race. Passing points are awarded for each position gained during the race, if you start 10th and finish 10th no points will be awarded. If you start 16th and win the race you will be awarded points. If you start 1st and finish last then no points are awarded. Each position gained is 1 point. So if you qualify pole with the fastest time out of all the lobbies and then there is a 6 row invert and you win the race. 1+1+11+25=38 points. If at the end of the night there is a tie in the points the overall win will go to the person with the lowest total time on the track.
The following purse is currently only for the August 24th event.
1st place will get a $100 gift card to amazon,
2nd Place gets $50 gift card to amazon
3rd place gets $25 gift card to amazon
If you would like to donate to the prize winning you are welcome to PM me and let me know.
On practice or “Unofficial” nights we will focus primarily on the next scheduled FIA combo. Once the schedule comes out for season 3 i will post in this details of those races for anyone to practice in who is not running the series.
I will need help with the following:
Creating a spreadsheet for the points system to work. (I am currently working on this but am not that great with formulas.)
I plan to host, but we will most likely need to plan on a few other hosts for the overfill of racers.
