*This can change at anytime, please check settings often.

VIABILITY & MAP:
  • FIXED TO CAR MAP is required to be on your HUD
  • Set the distance between 1-2
  • WATCH FOR FELLOW DRIVERS! USE THE MAP TO HELP YOU SEE WHERE OTHER DRIVERS ARE AT


CAUTIONS RULES:
  • ONLY MULTI-CAR accidents will bring out the caution.
  • Single Spins WILL NOT BRING OUT THE CAUTION. Be fore warned. If you are NOT endangering other drivers, a caution will NOT come out for you.
  • When you spin [single car], move as best as you can off the racing line.
  • Cautions Last 2 Laps. Example, if the caution comes out on lap 3, then we take the green flag going into lap 5.
  • When there are 3 laps to go, and if a caution exists; the feild will be required to enter a RED FLAG state. The field will remain in a red flag state until all other drivers are caught up.
RULES
GENERALLY, THESE ARE THE RULES WE WILL BE FOLLOWING. PLEASE READ UP!

CLEAN RACING or you are out. The only time you should be touching another car is in the straights, other than that give each other LOTS of room to race. Failure to comply to these rules, and you will be asked to leave.

A. COMMUNICATION
  • A headset is strongly recommended
  • No cursing, racism, bathroom humor, or innuendos of any kind is allowed over the radio or in text form through the PSN or GTPlanet at any time. This includes shortcut words like STFU or WTF.
  • Flaming is not tolerated in open or public. Debate the incident in a civilized manor but do not flame the other driver.
  • During the race keep communication light and strictly to issues concerning the race.
  • Communication is to be kept silent during qualifying sessions.
  • Keep off-topic (non GT5/race related) chatter to a minimum
B. GENERAL ON TRACK BEHAVIOR
  • You must bring your car to a stop either in the pits or on a safe place on the track before exiting the vehicle using ingame options.
  • Reversing or driving backwards on track for a period longer then needed to recover from an incident is forbidden.
  • Making donuts or standing stationary and spinning your tires is forbidden in every session.
  • You are not allowed to park your car anywhere on track.
  • Intentional wrecking of any kind is not allowed, even between two consenting parties.
C. PIT STOPS
  • Each track has a pit lane speed. You must reduce your car's speed to the speed limit by the time you enter pit road.
  • Do not merge onto the track until the backstretch at Daytona Speedway, Twin Ring Motegi, and Texas
  • If possible, do not slow down for the pits while on the racing line.
  • When exiting the pits pay attention to any merging lines on the track. Watch out for other cars already up to speed when exiting the pits.
  • Do your best to alert those around you of your intention to pit. If you have a headset alert those around you about your intention to pit. Ex: "Car 24 pitting this time"
I. RACING
  • Bump drafting the car ahead of you at a sensible speed is allowed on the straights, but is strictly prohibited in the turns.
  • Any kind of contact while cornering is strictly prohibited.
  • "Bump and Run" techniques are strictly prohibited.
  • If you are about to be lapped by the leader keep sensible in your driving. If you are considerably off the pace or damaged it would be better to just move out of the racing line and give plenty of room to the leader or other leading cars.
  • You are not allowed to intentionally wreck anyone, even in practice sessions.
  • Certain ovals have an "out of bounds" line. You are not allowed to put two tires below this line. You are not allowed to advance your position over any car on the track below this line. If you are forced below this line and you advance your position, you must give the position back before the end of the lap.
  • When blocking you are not allowed to make sudden changes of direction. The following driver must be given enough time to react and avoid you depending on his closing speed. You are allowed to only make one blocking move per straight. Weaving across the track to block someone or break a draft is not allowed.
  • There is no strict formula on how to pass another car or how to be passed. SCANA expects all drivers to respect their fellow drivers. Do not dive bomb drivers. Keep an eye on drivers attempting to pass you from behind. Give a reasonable amount of room. If you find yourself constantly creating alot of contact when you make a pass you probably aren't doing it right. Do not boss your way through the field or through lapped cars. Keep in mind that on roadcourses most turns are not suitable passing opportunities.
  • Physics for every racing series will be "Professional".
J. ACCIDENTS
  • Accidents are a part of racing and are expected to happen and most are honest mistakes. However there is a difference between a mistake and carelessness. A careless driver drives beyond his limits or the limits of others around him time and time again. Learn the limits of your own driving ability and the limits and driving ability of the drivers you race with on a weekly basis before attempting any risky manuvers.
  • If a driver wants to a file a complaint against another driver for wrecking him in a race he should not attempt to retaliate in the race. He should file a complaint with SCANA after the race. The SCANA officials will review the replay and take proper actions. Attempting to retaliate during the race is a bad idea because the driver cannot be 100% sure how or why the incident happened and retaliation may collect a bystanding driver.
  • If you spin/wreck another driver you may slowdown at a safe point on the track and let him retake the position ahead of you. This is NOT a requirement for any accident. It is up to the driver's conscience. However doing this may prevent or lessen post-race penalties. If you think a race accident was just a racing deal and nothing outside of superhuman reflexes or abilities could have prevented the situation then continue on racing. If you think the accident was the other driver's fault then continue on racing. Everything will be settled after the race if the driver you wrecked files a complaint.
  • When recovering from an accident wait until the track is clear before reentering the race course.
K. CONNECTION ISSUES & WARP
  • If a race is disconnected it may or may not be run at another time.
  • If a single driver is disconnected from a race he will be scored behind all the other drivers who finish the race. This will be seen as a mechancal failure.
  • If more then half of the drivers in the race are disconnected the race may or may not be rerun at a later time.
  • If you start to warp drop to the back of the pack or away from other cars. You may be asked to disconnect from the race if you are a threat to the other drivers.
Other Rules:

TRACK

Track - Indy

SIGN UP:​

Once you sign up you are guaranteed a starting place in a dual race.

Each Person who signs up will be entered into Dual 1 race or Dual 2 race depending on sign up sequence. It doesn't not matter which dual race you end up racing in. What matter is the top 7 drivers who get inducted into SCANA's top series. Any driver who does not cut the top 7 will no longer have a chance to be in SCANA until the next season.

Should there be only 12 drivers who show up for the duals. Then there will be 2 places available for other interested drivers to race in each week. Anyone not officially in SCANA will have to race their way in each week. If such demand exists. Any other details will be posted in each race week post.

Once the final 100 lap race is finished, 1st place driver gets his/her choice of stock car to use. Then 2nd, then 3rd...ect. I understand there are only 13 available cars to choose. So there will be 1 to 2 drivers who have to have the same car type and number.


Step 1. Please go here to sign up, http://gt5-scana.net/sign-up *
Step 2. Post your PSN & interest here in this thread


* If you are already signed up, don't worry about it, just post your PSN here.

Saturday nights? Dang, can't make all of them. I'll try my best to come, but I have important stuff to do every other Saturday, including this one. :(

EDIT: I can make it, as I mistaken it for being this Saturday!

Awesome. Let's go racin.

If I am able to race every other weekend, then could I still be able to enter the 1st Tier if I do good enough? I'm just actually qualifying to see what Tier I'm in as I can make this qualifier. I mistaken it for being this Saturday, lol.
 
I'll offer my pace car service if you wish?
Then you have someone to watch and check for wrecks, I call caution and we get a proper race going. Your call mate.

If not, I'll tape my bad thumb up and go for it!

Where ever you qualify. If you miss, you loose points.

See you there
 
Would love to join but I'm hosting a poker game that night at my house. If I get busted out early, I guess I'll be there.
 
Once again I'm in. I've actually spent the past couple of days doing a lot of online NASCAR races and it'll be fun to be in an organized one with the same people over and over.
 
I'm in.

I'll probably have practice rooms up throughout the week. I'll make sure to put FND/SCANA in the title.
 
Im in just pop me in a room PpR_Junkyardspec

The undecided track could be Cape Ring Periphery or Monza without the chicane.
 
Hey Chad is the tracks going to be the same every season or will a few change?
Also after each season will there be a qualifier or will people from say one teir move up and some others move down?
And how about Suzuka?Nascar has raced there.
Thanks again for putting this all together:tup:
 
hey guys i am down for this series. you can add me my PSN is: angrykoala_89
 
What is looks like to me is this. We will only be running one series. Judging by sign ups and past appear stats; it looks like we will have only 1 series. We also might switch up the track to better judge driving skills.

Stay tuned.

Have 18 signed up. For me a want to put effort into two series, there would have to be 28 drivers committed. So far I dont have a problem telling two or more people we don't have room for them.
