Car selection will be evened out as best as possible as i don’t wish to have 16 BMW’s and 1 Cossie. First in best served. Ill Plan for 2 lobbies allowing for example 6 M3’s 5 Merc’s and 5 Cossie’s. If we get a third lobby itll get opened up again adding another 2 M3’s, 3 Merc’s and 3 Cossie’s

Once you select a car and paint job you can change up until the Qualification round to sort the lobbies, Try randomise these as best as possible as well.

Lobby Setup
Lobbies should be open at 6.00PM (WST) 8.00PM (AEST) and to commence the Qualifying 15 minutes later, for example; Qualifying will commence at 6.15PM (WST) or 8.00PM (AEST).
Clear Weather
No time Progression, time to be set at 12pm unless otherwise stated.
Full damage and mechanical failures on
No tyre wear
Fuel usage to be on realistic
Assists – Lobby 1, all assists to be locked off. Lobby 2, free to run what you wish
8 Cars per lobby
Qualifying and race length will be posted at each round.
Lobbies will be fixed for each round, allowing for people to be late. Lobbies will not be merged unless there are less than 3 people in a lobby. If you do not show up to a round you will be automatically demoted to a lowest lobby if applicable for the next round and replaced by the top point scorer’s in the previous round

Incident Review
I require four people to put their hand up to be steward as such and review any incident brought forward by a competitor. It is up to the drivers involved to save the replay and an “xbox record that” clip
If you in anyway feel you won’t make an unbiased and fair judge of an incident don’t volunteer for the role

Rules
Simple, adhere to the rules and regulations stimulated in the Code of Conduct.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
Penalties will be awarded if you are deemed to be at fault for causing an accident.
Larger penalties will be applied for more serious incident or consistent poor sportsmanship
If you have lag and or ping issues you will be asked to move to the back of the grid for the start of races to reduce the chances of a “lag bomb”
Points will be deducted if a complaint is lodge and proven to be true if you exceed the track limits on a qualification lap. A race penalty of 30 seconds will be added to your end of race time if you cut during the race.
The round winner on points for their lobby will be promoted to the lobby above his if applicable. The driver who finishes last on points in their lobby for the round will be demoted to the lobby below his if applicable.

Penalties – Pending Confirmation
Being found guilty of exceeding the track limit in qualifying and setting your fastest valid lap will result in a 5 point penalty.
Being found at fault in an accident will result in a 30 second penalty being added to your end race time for your first and second offence. Being found at fault for a third time will result in a 1 minute penalty being added to your end of race time. Any further offences will result in disqualification from the race.
Possible grid penalty to be applied in the next round if multiple small incidents continue to occur or a major incident occurs.

Qualification 7th of June
Hockenhiem
2 x 30 Minute sessions to determine the lobbies, this is not mandatory but advised if you wish to be in a lobby that suits your speed.
Other arrangements can be made to set a time if you’re unable to make it on this date.

Grid set up for 2nd or 3rd race during a round
A 10 minute qualifying session will be started all participants will head out onto the track straight away. Once they’ve completed their out lap and begun a “flyer” or “hot lap” they driver must come to a stop on the start finish straight and wait for the other competitors before completing the lap. Once the whole lobby is present the host will then get the drivers to set a time based on their finishing position. The rest of the session will be used as an intermission before the next race.

Failure to adhere will result in disqualification from the coming race at the discretion of the lobby host. The decision will be final. The less you piss around the sooner everyone will post a lap and the more time you’ll have to do what’s required before the next race begins
