Policies Overview

Turtle Racing League provides hard racing every Friday night. We all are expected follow the GTPlanet OLR Rules weekly and take pride in Race Craft on the track. We aim for an competitive field of racing every week, yet an fun atmosphere for all drivers every week.

Qualifier Information

We require all drivers to show up at least 5 to 10 minutes in advance before race start. When qualifying, all mics must be muted to avoid distraction unless host states that mic is allowed. All qualifying sessions are 5 minutes long unless started for a certain event for allowing drivers to get the required amount of laps needed to start. Minimum of 2 laps and a max of 5 laps shall be done in qualifying. (If shorter track, it will be acceptable in its time period of 5 minutes). A qualy session will only be restarted if 2 or more dc in qualy, and return to the lobby. Please listen careful to your division Host Steward on the calls during qualy sessions and in race.


The First Turn Rule - It is the policy of this league for you to hold your position in turn 1 and not try to improve it unless the following situations occur: 1) The driver directly in front of you is asleep on the start. 2) The driver directly in front of you runs off course with at least 2 wheels off the track. 3) Obvious race incidents that must be avoided. 4) If you are able to fully draft past someone without incident or disruption to the other driver(s) with a reasonable distance before approaching the first turn.

Holding your position in the first turn is limited to the first turn on the first lap. This rule is in place for 2 reason: (1) to effectively avoid incidents in the first turn, and (2) so that drivers who are being careful and doing their part to avoid incidents in the 1st turn of are not taken advantage of. There is no sense in causing an incident in the congestion of the first turn. You can not win the race on the 1st turn or even the 1st lap. If a complaint is filed, the decision we make will be one that promotes an incident free first turn.


Dive Bombing

Dive bombing is unacceptable, and only results in incidents. It is not the same as passing under braking. Dive-bombing is when a trailing car intentionally brakes late to dive underneath the car in front of them as they are turning into a corner. The trailing driver must move to the low groove for at least 3-4 seconds prior to corner entry so that the leading driver can see the trailing drivers intentions in his mirror. However, running the low groove is not a guarantee that he will allow you to pass, it is only an indication that you wish to pass on the low side. The trailing driver must also have gained at least a half a car length lead before braking begins so the leading driver can see his position and avoid contact.

Race Incidents

Legitimate complaints are encouraged, they insure a better racing environment for everyone. Complaints should be addressed by "Private Message" to the race steward of the race in which the incident occurred. Drivers are expected to keep a respectful manner at all times when sending in an incident. Please include race number, lap number, and time of incident. A ruling will be announced after a video review by an independent steward. All racing incidents or racing related issues shall be dealt with privately and under no circumstance mentioned publicly.
