The Practice sessions will start at 24:00amGMT, 20:00EST_EDT.<BR style="mso-special-character: line-break"><BR style="mso-special-character: line-break">

3. Race Format and Starting procedure
All races will be 60min long, except 2 of them that will be 90 minutes long with a day/night (Sebring 12H) and day/night/day sequence (VLM LeMans 1977). All races will be 6x timescaled (simulating a 6hrs race) except the 2 special events at Sebring12h (timescale 8x) and at Le Mans (timescale 16x).
All sessions (Practice, Qualifying and Race) for all events will start at 12:00 (server time), except the Race at LeMans that will start at 16:00 (server time).
Damage will be set to Normal. Full course yellows are on.
The starting procedure will be the standard pace lap behind safety car and rolling starts. It is not allowed to pass before the S/F line when the green comes.
During the formation lap, ALL cars must line up in a single file and keep a 1s distance with the car ahead.<BR style="mso-special-character: line-break"><BR style="mso-special-character: line-break">

4. Restarts
Restarts will only occur because of a server malfunction that involves at least 20% of the drivers, period.<BR style="mso-special-character: line-break"><BR style="mso-special-character: line-break">

5. Championships
We will host a Drivers Championship per class (GT1 and GT2) and, if there is interest, a Team Championship, also per class.
Before the start of the season, all drivers must select a car from the ones available for each Class. He must also reserve a number for that car. All drivers must use that car and number for the full season, though one change of car is allowed during the season. Drivers can compete at both classes, so they can select one car per class.
Drivers can use one of the listed cars and numbers, OR they can submit their own cars. Those cars MUST use the numberplates and other IDs as provided by AtlasF1. They must use the Class colors as follows:
LMP1: Red
LMP2: Blue
GT1: Green
GT2: Orange

Teams of up to 2 drivers are allowed.
Drivers will receive 20 additional points for finishing the whole race. If you do not complete the entire race, you will be awarded a percentage of the 20 points depending on the percentage of the race you completed. All drivers that start a race will receive their % of the basic 20 points, even if they finish the race in 13th position or higher.
In addition, the top 12 finishers will receive points as follows:<BR style="mso-special-character: line-break"><BR style="mso-special-character: line-break">
Position Points
1 20
2 16
3 14
4 12
5 10
6 8
7 6
8 5
9 4
10 3
11 2
12 1

Best 4 out of 6 races will count for both the Drivers and Teams Championships.



6. Chat
No chatting is allowed after the official Qualifying Session starts. Only 'Pit In' and 'Pit Out', or similar, are allowed. If it would be possible, leave the 'sorry' for the post race comments.<BR style="mso-special-character: line-break"><BR style="mso-special-character: line-break">

7. Incidents and Protests
If you feel an incident has unfairly affected your result then it's your responsibly for bringing it to the attention of the League Admins by submitting a protest. A description of your accusation is required together with a replay of the incident.
While normally the Admins will only review protested incidents, it is in his rights to review anything that took place during qualifying or a race. If an offense is serious enough, a penalty may be issued without a formal complaint being filed.
All complains/protests must be send to the Admins up to 24hs after the race is finished.
Penalties can range from just issuing a warning, to adding seconds or laps to a driver's race results, to loss of points, disqualification, suspension and banishment from the league.<BR style="mso-special-character: line-break"><BR style="mso-special-character: line-break">

8. Race Reports
All drivers are encouraged to post his comments about each race, either positive or negative. However, we will not tolerate any flame war here. If somebody would want to discuss an incident in public, it is ok, BUT keeps flames out of the thread. That discussion/analysis must be useful to avoid other incidents, not to find a guilty of charge.
All other AtlasF1 Legends League rules are in effect.

I will open an specific post for the team, number and car selection. Please, post here any doubts about the rules.

[Arturo Pereira]

Server is open, hosting Buenos Aires track. Feel free to join it at will

[Arturo Pereira]

As a suggestion, we may alternate the use of GT1s and GT2s. FOr instance, we could all race GT1s at Buenos Aires and GT2s and Montreal. THis may lead to some changes in the schedule to set the slowest tracks to race the GT2s though.

[pai]

How are we gonna handle the full course yellow situations? No passing at the moment it's announced, or we can race until the S/F line?

[Arturo Pereira]

In the case a Yellow is shown, we can race back to the s/f line, as it happens at oval tracks.

[Tidge]

Have you decided which tracks will be GT1s and which will be GT2s ?

Nevermind, I reread your post, we are alternating, yes ?

Yes, we are alternating. We will race the GT1s at BUenos Aires since, because of the characteristics of the track, the cars fit better with it. I will review the whole schedule later and will add which races I think we will race with each variant.

[Arturo Pereira]

Hi guys,

I have changed the schedule so we will alternate GT2 and GT1 races. Also changed the order of some tracks to fit better with the respective classes.

Finally, I postponed the start of the season one week to avoid conflicts with the Oval Division schedule.

Next Monday, August 2nd, we will host a race at Montreal_ISI running the GT2 cars. Sorry for these changes, but I think they do not alter significantly the original plans.

Your modified schedule above states 8/16 for Montreal ?

Yes, I guess it would be better to start with the slower GT2 cars and Buenos Aires is a very fast track so that is why I decided to set BA as the 2nd event and to start with Montreal and the GT2s.

It is the date I am questioning, is it 8/2 or 8/16 ?

Sorry Tidge. I misunderstood you. We will have a pre-season race on 8/2 and the first official race will be on 8/16.
