Event Specifiics
Qualifying: You are allowed to rejoin after using Shift+P/Shift+S. Drafting is permitted, bumpdrafting is NOT. No Pro Car may be in server during the Am, session and vice versa.
Race:
1. Alerting the Administration: Use @sc to alert administration to look at your car or the section of track you were in when you use the @sc command.
2. Start and Safety Cars: Safety Car will lead the field through 1 formation lap. It will lead the field all the way to the pit entry. After Turn 20, the field needs to form into double file, the leader maintaining pitlane speed (with a 10 kph / 6 mph variance allowed). This speed MUST be maintained from that point until the GREEN FLAG.
On Restarts, the Safety Car will pull away from the field after Turn 16. It may not be overtaken before it crosses the 1st Safety Car line.
3. Communications: Each team must have a team representative in our IRC channel, #ndr at irc.gamesurge.net for the duration of the race. Failure to have a representative in IRC when contact is needed will result in the penalty prescribed by the rules. We will also be available in the NDR TeamSpeak server: teamspeak.newdimensionracing.com
ALTERNATE METHOD: If you cannot have an IRC representative, or if you wish to listen to race control audio anyway, that will be available as an audio-only stream (with a 10 or so second delay) at http://72.49.131.131:8000/listen.m3u - User: LFSNDR Pass: ndrracectrlaudio
4. Driver Naming: Be sure to be in your proper name format (Number blue for Pro; Green for Am, space, then First initial last name [eg. 00 J. Palmer]. The name must be in WHITE.
5. Tracker: Tracker will be available and running on http://tracker.newdimensionracing.com. Please point out any errors you note to us during the race.
6. New Race Control App: Since Round 1, we have developed a new Race Director app. It is largely the same, with the exceptions of separate tracking of Pit ENTRY and Pit EXIT, our administrative notifications indicate location on track of a yellow, @sc alert, and we can display a Race Control Messages as a BUTTON, using a special function. It is designed to not block any gauge view or view of your car, it should generally appear just below the literal middle of the screen. We have not seen any problems with it yet in testing or its use.
7. Miscellany: Do NOT under any circumstances Shift+P or Shift+S during the race without authorization from Race Control.
After finishing the race, please slow WELL BELOW racing speeds after turn 1 and proceed around into pit lane. Select any open garage stall and pull in. The top 3 in each class shall report back to Start / Finish Line for podium pose.
Please post any procedural questions in this thread.
Good luck!
