ROUND 5,
Daytona Road
DRIVER'S BRIEFING!
Circuit: Daytona Road
Laps: 76
Weather: Sunny
Circuit Rules:
+) Race Start: Our usual rule of starting the race on the painted grid slots will not apply for this round, as there are no painted grid slots on the banking of Daytona, Instead, The lead LMP1 car must be passed pit entry and level with the grass section on the tri oval before accelerating, as usual one of the stewards will call green,
+) Pit Entry, Due to the speed differences of cars in the banking any driver wishing to pit must maintain the lowest line plausible through the banking after the bus stop chicane and exit the banking to the apron where the tarmac goes all the way to wall before pit entry, and follow the thick solid yellow line into the pit lane itself, There will be no penalty for crossing the thick yellow line, it is there as a guide,
+) Pit Exit, Everyone is to use the proper road course pit exit, The hard left turn just as you regain control of the car from the AI, once you follow that around to the straight entering turn 2 you must keep your car as close to the left as practical until turn 2 entry, failure to do this will result in the same penalty as a pit exit line infringement (30 second time penalty) or death if you happen to be hit by a car entering turn 1 at speed, Any seen blocking immediately into turn 2 after exiting the pits maybe viewed as malicious intentional actions and the penalty will be severe to potential death also,
Follow up from Spa Francorchamps,
+) The incident involving Ninners (LMP1) and Plotnik (GTE) was investigated further and due to the discovery of a failed connection between the 2 cars meant that one was visible to one driver and the other could not see him, resulting in a terrible accident, no further action will be taken,
Seems the Spa circuit is really struggling for connection stability online,
+) Use of the text box and microphones during qualifying and racing, Seriously guy's, We are fed up with telling you, Its happening far to often we have the thread here for a reason, And it seems if its not in the drivers briefing then its going to be ignored, So to save myself the hassle a penalty will apply to any further infringements,
The penalty will be that you forfeit qualifying for the next round resulting in you starting at the very back of the grid! If this problem persist's it will time penalties added,
+) Pit entry and exit violations, Far to many occurring people, get it together!
+) GTE cars, HOLD YOUR LINE! there were several incidents with LMP1 cars and GTE cars due to a failure to do this, If you are going to move over make your actions clear very early, I can appreciate getting out of the way can be difficult, BUT! that isn't your job, It is the LMP1 drivers job to get by you cleanly without contact, and due to people trying to do the "right" thing its caused more issues then needed,
LOOKING FORWARD TO DAYTONA,
Notes to remember,
+) We have a new LMP1 driver by the name of RedBullRider20, Welcome, He will be taking the seat of the Audi R8 '05, I TDZdave will be dropping down to GTE and using the Corvette C5R,
+) Keep bunched under pace lap,
+) Text box and headset use during qualifying or racing are strictly prohibited! we aren't messing around now,
+) Ensure you understand the circuit specific rules regarding the start and pitting procedures,
Any questions or queries just ask, 👍 looking forward to this one,
.
Well, I might.
