The Online Racing Clubs & Championships Association Presents:
All-Proto 2.4 Hours of Le Mans
NOTE: AT THIS TIME WE ARE ONLY ACCEPTING YOUR TEAM NAME AS AN ENTRY. DO NOT ANNOUNCE YOUR CAR SELECTION!!!
The 24 Hours of Le Mans is one of the most prestigious and challenging endurance races on this earth. It combines the strategy and endurance of man and machine, pushing the boundaries of speed to the thresholds of safety. This tribute event, in an attempt to capture that sensation of the real race, will thus not be for the faint of heart or the ill-prepared!
At this time, we are accepting teams who are interested in participating in this event. You do not need to have an existing team in order to apply and can form your team later. Simply state your team name and which sub-class you would like to participate in (See 'Entry Application Format') but do not name which car you will be using! Once you have decided on which exact car you would like to use, Private Message me on GTPlanet. Do not make your car selection lightly as you will not be permitted to change it!
SCHEDULE
Testing, Development, Team Creation // Present - June 14th
Online Performance Check #1 // May 25th
Group Testing Assigned // May 25th
Deadline for Car Selection is // June 1st
Online Performance Check #2 // June 1st
Driver Confirmation Deadline is // June 8th
All-Proto 2.4 Hours of Le Mans!! // June 15th
Note: All events are schedule for 7pm GMT
If you are interested in this event, even if you're not sure you'll be able to drive in it, I will accept your Team's entry. You should then gather other members to work together to set up a car and then work out who will drive the car come closer to race day.
It's important to see you, your entry, and your car as separate entities to ensure optimum quality for this event and your competitors. Work with a reserve driver or drivers who would be willing to fill in your seat should you be unable to enter come race day (and they find themselves available). I'd like to see every entry have at least 1-3 reserve drivers depending on how many entries that team has made.
This thread will be updated and flushed out over the coming weeks so please check back!
If there is sufficient interest in the run up to this event, it could be used as a spring board for a series that will consist of 1.2-2.4 hour races at tracks like St. Croix, Fuji, Catalunya, Nurburgring GP, Monza and more.

It is strongly encouraged that a driver form a team with friends and other members to help prepare their entry. (If you are interested in this event but fear you might not be able to participate, reach out to competitors to be part of their team!)
Teams are permitted up to two driver entries, but they may not enter the same class. Teams may have any number of testers, tuners, or reserve drivers!

As would be expected, your livery must maintain a level of courteous decency and should not include (nor allude to) vulgar language or imagery.

All other colors and textures may be freely used.
Decal Layer Restrictions:
Decal textures should be Gloss or Semi-Matte
Matte and Powder are prohibited
Sponsorship Restrictions:
One of ORCCA's growth goals is to increase the promotion of online racing on the whole, and that includes helping our racers obtain sponsorship. To eventually meet that goal, we are barring the use of real primary sponsors aside from those listed below.
LEGEND - "Primary/Primary Sponsor" The largest logo to appear on the car, the logo that sets the theme for most of the car's livery.
"Secondary/Secondary Sponsor" Optional. The second largest logo to appear on the car. Can influence the theme of the livery and should have it's own field of color but doesn't need to
"Associate/Associate Sponsor" Minor logo, might appear in a small box, rectangle or oval containing a contrasting field of color.
Primary and Secondary Sponsors
You are not required to run Primary/Secondary sponsors if you do not wish.
Primary and Secondary Sponsors must be from GT Sport's Fictional Brands or
You may use GTPlanet as a primary or secondary sponsor.
You may use Gran Turismo or Polyphony Digital as a primary or secondary sponsor.
Associate Sponsors
Gran Turismo and GTPlanet must appear as Associate sponsors if not used as primary sponsors.
Your vehicle's manufacturer logo and their associate motorsport-related logos (NISMO, TRD/Gazoo, etc) are permitted to appear as associate sponsors. You may run one of each decal and they can only appear once on each side of the car.
You are permitted to run your Wheel Controller Manufacturer logo on the car as an associate sponsor. (Logitech, Fanatec, Thrustmaster, etc).
DS4 Users are permitted to run the Sony logo as an associate sponsor. This is the only time the Sony logo is permitted to be used on an entry.
You may use non-fictional lubricant, fuel and tire sponsors. You are permitted to one of each.
Please ensure that fuel and lubricant sponsors are sister brands (Shell/Pennzoil, Castrol/BP, etc)
Note: APEX and bURN are Fictional Oil and Fuel brands, should you choose them or wish to run them as a primary/secondary sponsor.
Please take care to ensure that all sponsor logos are legible and visible and above a sufficiently contrasting field of color.
Team Livery Regulations:
Team Entries should either share exact colors yet use differing designs or
Share designs while using differing colors or
Share both colors and designs.
Personal Sponsors and Team Logos:
These are absolutely permitted and encouraged to be used! If you have a sponsor (even if, say, for Go-Kart or RC Car racing as an example) in real life, you are freely able to use their logo/logos. Additionally, if you are a part of an e-sports or GTPlanet racing team, you are permitted to run their logos and livery. I do ask that you try to keep the base design (non-logo) of the livery within the Paint and Decal layer restrictions, but I am willing to approve exemptions.

Number Plates:
Special thanks to @Maninashed
Note: The Number Plates are roughly the required size and should not be up or down-scaled much.
Number Fonts and Restrictions:
Number fonts may be selected at your pleasure with only the following restrictions.
The number's "stroke" should be unbroken (no military style stencil fonts, for example)
The stroke should not vary drastically in width (no "vintage" style fonts)
All numbers should be painted GT Sport standard black
Numbers should not overlap and should maintain an amount of spacing between them to theoretically allow a single straight line to be drawn between them.
Outlines are permitted but should be sufficiently small to ensure the number is distinctly visible.
Drop shadows are not permitted.
Numbers and Number Plates should be sufficiently large enough to be legible while the car is in motion at speed.
Numbers should be contained wholly within the middle box of the number plate.
Numbers should be sufficiently small enough to allow the background of the number plate to have at least 30% visibility.
Members of a Team do not need to share a font.
The following users have uploaded numbers onto GT Sport that are pre-approved:
Pandi-GP: CnF Number (0-9) and CnF Number S2 (0-9)
JPS-3: "Number" 0-9
okasan_joestar07: WELGT number (0-9) and SGT_number (0-9)
Dalejrfanfreak: Avenir (0-9) and Eurostile (0-9) Note: Militia is prohibited
criminalrobot: British GT (0-9) and DTM (0-9)
You are permitted to use other number fonts if you wish, but please submit them to me for approval via PM discussion. (You do not need to make a new discussion if we already have one)
Placement Restrictions:
Your number plate should appear between the front and rear wheels and no amount should extend above the belt line of the body work as established by the top of the shortest wheel well.
Select V Class entries are permitted to place the number plate aft of the rear wheels should the bodywork make clean placement difficult (Alpine VGT comes to mind)
You do not need to place number plates in any other location on the car if you do not want to. Only the left and right sides are required!
