Race procedure
A)
Open a race and start practice immediately, allow 10 min for
everyone to get in and practice. (Note 1 to drivers: If you
don't get in it is just hard luck so make sure you concentrate
please)
B) Once the flags wave
for the end of practice everyone go immediately back to the
pre-race area and join the main race grid as soon as it is
possible.
(Note 2 to drivers: The race
will start automatically after a short delay and you will miss the
grid lineup if you carry on practicing or don’t join in time. If
you don’t join the lineup time you can still start but you will
join from the pit lane, so you will be behind the others by
whatever time you are late)
C)
1st race will be the 'Int Short, 2nd race 'Int Long' to set number of laps
for each track..
D)
Make sure your race name VROC/IGor names are the same. i.e
F1RaCeR and F.1Racer or Steamroller in VROC and Steam.Roller in GPL. Failing to keep the same
name throughout the season will result in the loss of points. If
you race in different leagues, setup a separate driver name for
this league.
E)
Stay in the server at the end of the race, and conduct the next
race in the same way.
2)
Scoring
A) We
will use the following scoring system so that every place is worth
fighting for.
1st
25
points, then 22, 20, 18, 16, 15, 14,
13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2.
DNS=
no points, DNF score according to order of dropping.
There is also bonus points added to your weekly results depending on
which car you drive. To gain these bonus points, you MUST drive the
car you selected from the start of qualifying, through both Races 1and 2.
Swapping cars during the race evening will earn you a 'black flag' and you will gain ZERO
points for that meeting. These bonus points are ONLY for the 1967
cars.
Bonus
Points BRM --------- 10
Cooper ------- 8
Honda -------- 6
Brabham
------ 4
Ferarri
--------
3
Eagle
--------- 0
Lotus
--------- 0
These
bonus points are added to you final score for the race meeting:
i.e
Win 2 races in a Cooper 2x 25= 50
+ 8 = 58 points
All race results
will count towards the final league total. We
will score 10 from 12 with last race compulsory. This allows you to
miss 2 weeks racing without penalty.
B) For the 1965 mod, during the season, you must use
each car in the 65 mod at least once during each round in the
season. 3)
Etiquette/configuration
A)
Take care at the starts. The car starts off on cold tyres, and you
will have less grip for 1 or 2 laps.
B)
Be patient and explain what people need to do when they are
stuck. Don't assume too much knowledge when explaining.
C)
Drivers should have braking and acceleration help off.
D)
Please take some time out and read the GPL
Recommended Driving Behavior web site on better online
racing. It is a great insight!
E)
If you miss 3 consecutive races without prior arrangement with
Steamroller or F1RaCeR, you will be removed from the league tables. This is to
let people join the league who can race regularly without racers
coming and going when they please. Use the forum to post messages if
you can't attend.
F)
Race evening may sometimes be delayed by approx 15 minutes when ever
there are big events taking place i.e major football matches etc.
Notice of any race meeting delay will be done through the forum AND
newsletter. G)
When defending another car from overtaking, you may make 1 (ONE)
move to block the car, but weaving is not accepted. H)
If you take out another driver through no fault of the other driver,
we feel its right to wait for him to get back onto the track and
take up the same racing position before the accident you caused
happened. Failing to comply could lead to a DQ for that race.
I) New for season 12 will be a penalty system to
punish poor driving/racing. If you cause any accident which the CoC/s
feel could be avoided then you will be issued with a yellow flag.
After receiving 3 yellow flags, you will then be issued a Red flag
and a 30 point penalty. Yellow flags 'may' be lifted from racers if
they show clean driving over the next few races without incident.
J)
If you want to make a complaint about poor driving, send a ZIPPED
replay file to THE RACE
STEWARDS who will each look at the replay and decide on that
drivers fate. Race Stewards are (F1RaCeR, Steamroller, Bas and Maxim) If
a complaint is with one of the Stewards, then a 5th Steward will be
selected.
