Racers:
The first Official Practice Session for the 2011 Kyoto 250 will be held on Sunday, 27th February 2011. It will consist of hotlap qualifying followed by a 45 lap + 2 pace lap (47 total) race. Anticipated timetable:
1700 UTC: Qualifying begins - InSim controlled queueing; one outlap, two flying laps, one inlap, fastest lap counts
1750 UTC (or 10 minutes after qualifying ends): Race
To ensure the session is completed prior to GTAL Qualifying Session 1 scheduled for 1900 UTC, if the race is still in progress at 18:45 UTC, the race will be shortened so that there are three laps remaining from the 18:45 mark.
The insim application will order you based on its method, providing you are on-track before I start qualify. You are NOT to ask "Why am I not in the list" or similar. I will be taking care of that thruought the session - there will be a chance to mention you did not take a run at the end of the session. First infraction is a warning, second loss of 4 grid places, 3rd is start from the back of the field.
You are to respect all messages from administration. If we ask you to do something, like back off the SC or behind another competitor, do it, and don't say anything at all. The response is performing the action, that's all we need.
Remember that the initial race start is double-file, overtaking permitted at green flag.
On restarts from caution periods, lead lap cars line up on the outside, lapped cars (if any) to the inside. You may overtake ONLY ON THE OUTSIDE after the green is out, but still before the line.
Your presence in TeamSpeak is required for the session. You don't have to be able to talk, you just need to at least be able to listen. Connect your TS client to 81.19.209.204; port 10005. Remember that TS may be recorded for logging and control purposes during the session.
Also, bear in mind that generally the first few sessions will be somewhat numpty-filled as people acclimate to their competitors, and the rules. Don't run off and resign from the event when this happens. We will be observing all drivers during and after the sessions and will not hesitate to remove drivers who will constantly cause problems.
Please, to help us know who may be attending, post here telling us such.
You will receive a PM with the password for all practice sessions prior to the first session starting.
