IMPORTANT
Read the pit entry rules in the following posts very carefully - failure to comply will result in a penalty!
Driver/Team notes:
- Driver swapping is allowed
- Each car can have 1-2 drivers (Driver Swap Tutorial)
- All cars must have their headlights on at all times (additional flashing is encouraged when overtaking / lapping)
- Blue flag: signals a faster car is behind you. Caution is required, but moving over is not.
- The faster car is expected to look for a sensible passing opportunity. They are responsible for initiating a safe pass, but the slower car is equally as responsible for allowing an overtake to occur safely. Stay on the racing line, leaving plenty of room for the overtaking car, and do not make sudden / unexpected movements.
- When lapping: straights are preferred over corners; corner exits are preferred over corner entries.
- Slower cars are expected to keep to their racing line and cooperate with safe passes. Moving out of the way is not advised, as it leads to unpredictable situations.
- Faster cars may flash their headlights to indicate that they are about to make a pass.
- Patience is key!
- Remember to test pit-stops and driver swaps (Driver Swap Tutorial)
- Ensure that all drivers in the team have driven some laps in traffic, and different track conditions
- Whilst not racing or preparing for a driver swap, drivers are not permitted to be on the server; timing software will be provided so that team members are able to monitor the race
- Presence on TS is not mandatory, but is recommended in case communication with drivers or teams is required
- Standing start
- At the beginning of the race, once you select "Race" your car will immediately spawn directly on the grid in your qualifying position
- Your tyres and brakes will be cold - BE CAREFUL
- Do not take risks, or attempt to make over-ambitious overtakes - it's a 2 hour race, don't ruin it for yourself or others
- Ensure that you practise standing starts before the race - please only do this in the pit lane, away from other cars (be aware what's around you)
- Mod edit: Please ensure you treat other drivers with respect at the start. When was the last time a "brave" move under brakes on lap 1 sector 1 made your race (especially in a 120 minute event)? The drivers in front outqualified you and probably put quite some effort into practice. Respect please. Adhesion over ambition. Turn 1 is tricky.
- Name all drivers for your car
- You can always add or remove drivers to your car later on
- Your final line-up should be clear 24 hours ahead of the event
