Hello people, I'm looking for 15 people to join me to race at Daytona Speedway this Sunday. The race length will either be 100 or 200 laps, this will be decided via the poll. People who are commited to this event, I don't want people dropping out half way through the race. I'll update this post in the next 24 hours, the rules for this event. If your interested then let me know in this thread and feel free to ask any questions.
Rules:
I will open the room at 19:00 GMT for questions
Free run will start at 19:30 GMT then the race will be followed at 20:00 GMT
Grid will be set via Free run prior to race
Honesty is a must for this event if it is going to be a success.
Pace car Chevrolet Camaro SS (White) (GTPlanet userTommyWizard)
Not only TommyWizard is the pace car, but he will be the steward for the race aswell, so we have to be honest and respect him. For example, double file restart will be like real life. Also if someone spins out, TommyWizard will say caution out or pace car out, we slow down like real life. The driver or drivers involved in the caution will have to make a mandatory pit stop.
Don't worry this has been all tested out, but if anyone who hasnt then tomorrow is the last chance for Sunday.
Laps 100
Anyone invited
Do not take out other oppenents intentionally
Do not drive backwards at anytime
If 1 lap or more down, do not intentionally spin out to cause a caution. This will not be tolerated. People can get the lucky dog rule, that is the first person a lap down can get back onto the lead lap. (TommyWizard) will say the drivers name or type the drivers name in the chat log.
In Free run prior to race test bump drafting if you want
Bump drafting allowed obviously, however be careful through the corners due to the unbelievable slipstream
Start Type (Video at the bottom) - Double file restart behind pace car at all times, at the start of the race we will have 1 warm up lap behind pace car. Pace car will pull off onto light grey tarmac just before the pits. Thats where the pace car will be postioned most race and will keep an eye on the track map.
The leader has the choice on the restart whether to start on the inside or outside. He has to make his decision and when he does, the rest of the grid will be formed.
For example, P1 inside - P2 outside
P3 behind P1 - P4 behind P2
So basically it will be odd numbers one side and the other side even numbers.
Also in the double file restart you have to hold your position, you can only overtake after the start/finish line. No jump starting.
When making a pit stop make sure you brake down to 50 mph
When making a pit stop, coming out of the last turn make sure you be on the inside.
Overtaking below the yellow line is not allowed and under caution aswell. ( So when the caution is out/pace car you slow down and stay in your position, no overtaking.
Boost - No
Penalty - None
Grip Reduction - Real
Tyre Restrictions - Racing Hard (Front & Rear)
NO - Skid Recovery Force
NO - Active Steering
NO - ASM
NO - TCS
Driving line OFF
The chat log can be used during race if people want to communicate with eachother. Because everytime someone sends a message it will pop in the chat log on the bottom left hand side. This obviously can be used during caution laps or even during the pit stops. Headset can be used aswell if anyone has got one, would be really handy.
Skip to around 7:45
