We haven’t had any sign ups so far other than @EDK, but there is most definitely a race if we have drivers. I’m trying to round up some more now. That’s makes 3 of us so far. :)

Tonights race lobby is now open for practice. Gotta find a way to get 14 laps out of this thing to have a chance to catch @gatordaryl :)

Quick announcement for everyone who's been participating here.

@Pigems is not going to be able to host our races indefinitely, at least for the next several weeks.

I am going to take on hosting duties for the Sunday WW events only. For right now, we are not going to run Thursday night races. My work travel schedule will not allow me to host a consistent schedule of weeknight events.

This week (Sunday 1/5), I am gone to a real life race, so we will not have an event.

Our races will resume on Sunday, 1/12 with the week 111 Combo (Combo to be announced in our TT section on Sunday, 1/5).

I am going to move the Sunday WW race start an hour earlier, to 3 pm Eastern and 8 pm GMT. I'm hoping this opens it up for a few more EU participants, knowing we are running the races on Sunday evening leading to the start of the work week.

I am flexible on the start time change, so if that causes issues for some of the folks who have been running with us, just let me know.

Thanks to all who have been participating, the races have been fun. 👍
 
8pm GMT sounds good
I best go re-read all the information.
I registered for TT but not race I best to register because I don't see myself at the bottom of the rookies list

Edit

Found myself in the unregistered list.:(.. I below a rookies & need to do something about that ..:lol::lol:

I still want to race incase there is space.

Eligibility

This WRS-Online event hosted by TPC Racing is open to GTP_WRS Registered members only. If you are not currently on the registry, join now by following the GTP_WRS Registration!

Once Registered with WRS, Simply hit reply on the newest version of the Race Sheet and add your PSN name to the day(s) you would like to participate on.

Delaying or Restarting Race Start

Once the race countdown timer has started, the race will only be restarted in these cases:

  • Multiple drivers report a black screen/hang, instead of the 3-2-1 countdown.
  • One or more drivers get disconnected before race-pace has begun ("GO" for grid-starts, end of formation lap for rolling starts).
  • Steward realizes there is a condition that would lead to an unfair or poor race experience.
Once the race countdown timer has started, the race will explicitly NOT be restarted for:

  • Latecomers, even if you've registered
  • Driver realizes he picked the wrong car parts (ie, tires) or driving options (ie, Auto tranny)

Lobbies
-Lobbies will be open approximately 30 minutes before Qualifying starts for warm up/practice.

-Qualifying will consist of 1 out lap followed by 2 hot laps, once your hot laps are completed please stay on the track and park your car somewhere in the 2nd sector and off the track while everyone else completes their qualifying. Leaving the track may cause you to lose your place on the grid. If you go off the track or crash in qualifying, please be sure that when you do re enter the track that it is safe to do so, never re enter the track when there is any type of oncoming traffic.

- After Qualifying has finished we will start the race. The race will be Approx. 50 minutes, Full Race Details are posted below.

- We will start off by not using the games built in Penalty system, for now we will use the honor system. If you make a pass and accidentally mess another driver up, give the place back, even if it means you have to give up 10 other spots in the process. If we find this isn’t working we will move to using the games built in Penalty system, but I don’t foresee that being an issue.

Track Boundary Guidelines

Drivers are expected to do their best to stay within track boundaries per the OLR. Mistakes happens over the course of a long race and the random off or two will be overlooked in most instances, but if a pattern of boundary abuse is observed penalties will be handed out which include 15 seconds for a "minor" pattern of abuse, 30 seconds for a "substantial" pattern of abuse, and a DQ for "complete disregard" of track boundaries. In cases where penalties may not impact the driver (e.g. DC), the penalty may be carried over to the next event and may be applied as a 5 (minor) or 10 (major) grid spot penalty.

It's up to the admins' discretion exactly what qualifies as "minor", "substantial" or "complete disregard". Going outside the rumble by a centimeter isn't as serious as a car length wide excursions into the run off area. Factors such as dirty air and traffic also come into play. If you find yourself going wide then the next lap you're expected to slow down a bit more to make sure you stay within boundaries. If you make the same mistake multiple times and you want to avoid a penalty you can always self-penalize during the race by lifting for a very brief period upon returning to the track. Continuing to hammer the throttle after repeated boundary overruns may very well end with a post race penalty.

General Guidelines:
  • Contact with walls should be avoided. Wall riding/bouncing to gain time will be penalized and/or can result in disqualification. This includes pit entry/exit.
  • Rumble/ripple strips are part of the track
  • Runoff areas are not part of the track.
  • If you overrun boundaries by accident, lift momentarily to make sure you don't gain any advantage.
  • Do not complete a pass that was made possible by going outside track boundaries.
Track Specific Guidelines:
  • Same track limits as the Time Trial.

Standard Clean OLR Rules Apply:
  • Unless otherwise specified, all rules from the original WRS event apply.
  • You are expected to drive clean at all times as if you are racing in the WRS. All participants are required to follow the GTPlanet Online Racing Rules & Guidelines.
  • TPC Race Stewards (who are taking part in race, but will review the replay) reserve the right to kick out or invalidate the result of any driver from the Race Room for driving offensively. If you ignore any warnings from the stewards and are kicked out of the race room, you will not be allowed to participate in future TPC events.
  • Contact with walls should be avoided. Wall riding/bouncing to gain time will be penalized and/or can result in disqualification.
  • Rumble/ripple strips are part of the track
  • Runoff areas are not part of the track including green painted concrete.
  • Limit your contact with walls or objects, visible or invisible
  • No hybrids
  • No cheating of any kind
  • Nothing that goes against the spirit of the rules
  • Passing and Blocking: Aggressive blocking is not permitted, but the driver in front has the right to choose his/her line and braking point and drivers behind should respect that line. Be especially careful when you are on older tires than the competition as the speed difference may be significant. These events are "for fun" so just play nice and take a conservative rather than an aggressive approach when possible.

Good Luck, OLR Team:gtplanet:

Yes, you are welcome to race. You are not in a division because division placement happens when you participate in and submit for at least 3 times trails, and those laps are verified clean.

We use the time trials to establish pace relative to other drivers. But not being in a division does not keep you from participating.

Hey Bud, thanks for thinking of me. Unfortunately I’m not available at that time. I love the combo ... wish I could run with you all. Have fun!
Is the hour earlier a pinch for you in general? Or just this week? I only moved it to try and get some EU guys.

Afternoons are generally tough for me ... family obligations. I don’t get much time to race these days ... I just hop on when I have a spare moment.
