LLS 2021: Round 3 - Driver Nominations
Hello team managers and vice-managers,
Please nominate your drivers to the cars they will be piloting for Round 3. This thread is also where you will tell is if your car(s) will not be attending this round.
IF YOU ARE NOT ATTENDING THE ROUND
Please use this format:
00/no
IF YOU ARE ATTENDING THE ROUND
Please use this format to pair a driver to your team car(s), one per line:
00/username
Remember, once a driver has driven an official session, they are locked to that team. For the avoidance of doubt, we will not consider Pre-Qualifying a session that would lock a driver to a team.
You can have up to five drivers on your team roster at any time, and can only replace those who have not partaken in Free Practice, Qualifying, or the Races.
NOMINATIONS ARE DUE BY 20:00 UTC on Saturday, 11 September, 2021. You may make substitutions or changes up until the start of qualifying, but must have an initial declaration by 20:00 UTC or you will automatically be considered to not be participating, and your spot given to another car.

LLS 2021: Round 3 - Race Discussion
Hello racers,
Next stop for the LFSCART Light series is the Rockingham Oval. NDR's first oval event since 2015, the last year the Kyoto 250 was run. LFSCART Light would often visit the Kyoto Oval for "The Night Before The 500", always held the evening prior to the Kyoto 500.
This time, we use the trapezoidal Rockingham Oval. This round will see a rolling start, and be a single race, 240 km in distance.

LLS 2021: Round 2 - Pre-Qualifying and Locked-In Drivers
Hello racers,
Locked-In Teams
The following teams and their entered cars are locked in for Round 2 of the 2021 LFSCART Light Series:
Team S1DUS (Cars 27, 28, 29)
Jsrk is NOT an Alpha (Cars 36, 37)
World Class Lions (Cars 39, 40, 41)
Race Green Autosports (Cars 12, 13, 14)
This gives us 11 reserved spaces for the second round. All these cars are entered into the race meeting, therefore do not have to pre-qualify.
Pre-Qualifying
All teams outside of the top 4 in points for Round 2 are required to pre-qualify.
Pre-Qualifying starts at 18:00 UTC on 26 August 2021, and runs for 48 hours.
It will take place in the NDR.Pre-Qualifying server. 25 cars will make it into the round on Sunday, we ask the first three team cars outside the top 25 to be ready to jump in last minute, if necessary.
Drivers may take as many laps as they want. Drafting is permitted, bump-drafting is not. Drivers should not impede other drivers at any time.
In the server, drivers are to use their names in proper format, using a car number associated to their team, assigned to them by their team management. Multiple drivers for a team may use the same car number, the fastest time will apply. The teams have the right to decide which driver represents them for the race meeting on Sunday in the event they have more drivers available than cars entered. Pre-Qualifying this round therefore serves a dual purpose - allows us to establish the entry list, and allows teams to use it to select their drivers, if they deem it necessary.
Airio will be running on the server, as well as the tracker.

LLS 2021: Round 1 - Pre-Qualifying
Hello racers,
Pre-Qualifying
All entrants for Round 1 are required to pre-qualify.
Pre-Qualifying starts at 18:00 UTC on 12 August 2021, and runs for 48 hours.
It will take place in the NDR.Pre-Qualifying server. 36 cars will make it into the round on Sunday, we ask the first three team cars outside the top 36 to be ready to jump in last minute, if necessary.
Drivers may take as many laps as they want. Drafting is permitted, bump-drafting is not. Drivers should not impede other drivers at any time.
In the server, drivers are to use their names in proper format, using a car number associated to their team, assigned to them by their team management. Multiple drivers for a team may use the same car number, the fastest time will apply. The teams have the right to decide which driver represents them for the race meeting on Sunday in the event they have more drivers available than cars entered. Pre-Qualifying this round therefore serves a dual purpose - allows us to establish the entry list, and allows teams to use it to select their drivers, if they deem it necessary.
Airio will be running on the server, as well as the tracker.

LLS 2021: Round 1 - Driver Nominations
Hello team managers and vice-managers,
Please nomiate your drivers to the cars they will be piloting for Round 1. This thread is also where you will tell is if your car(s) will not be attending this round.
IF YOU ARE NOT ATTENDING THE ROUND
Please use this format:
00/no
IF YOU ARE ATTENDING THE ROUND
Please use this format to pair a driver to your team car(s), one per line:
00/username
Remember, once a driver has driven an official session, they are locked to that team. For the avoidance of doubt, we will not consider Pre-Qualifying a session that would lock a driver to a team.
You can have up to five drivers on your team roster at any time, and can only replace those who have not partaken in Free Practice, Qualifying, or the Races.
NOMINATIONS ARE DUE BY 20:00 UTC on Saturday, 14 August, 2021. You may make substitutions or changes up until the start of qualifying, but must have an initial declaration by 20:00 UTC or you will automatically be considered to not be participating, and your spot given to another car.

LFSCART Light Series 2021: Skins
LFSCART Light Series 2021 - Skins
Per the regulations, you are required to run a skin with elements that we provide. For this season, we are providing a logo on the airbox area as an overlay (2048 square). Please overlay this image on your livery, and place the car number on the following locations:
- Both rear wing endplates, clearly visible
- On nose, to be read facing the front of the car
The series logo and the NDR logo are provided for your convenience in the pack.
Driver naming in-game is to follow the NDR Sporting Code, using the format ## F. Last. Number, first initial, and last name should have one space between them. The car number must be in white (^7) or grey/default. The Driver's name may be in any colour, but remember that each colour change costs you two characters. You must use the name provided to us in the entry list.
No skin may contain material deemed offensive, pornographic, political, or other such cases. The Stewards have right to refuse any skin based on elements.
Please post your skins by 16:00 UTC on the Friday prior to the round, so we can generate a skinpack and a spotting board.
