Sunset Speedweeks - Saturday, May 3rd, 2014
Sunset 250 - Saturday May 10th, 2014
9:30pm BST (4:30pm EST)


Race Meeting Set-Up

We ask that all competitors are on Xbox live at least 15 minutes prior to the start of the race meeting, and appear online. Where necessary, if each competitor could post "In" in the relevant race meeting thread on the TORA forums. Anyone who wishes to race without posting "In" will need to wait for the race meeting organizers confirmation before being allowed to race. Certain factors may come into account, such as if there are 16 people racing, and one person who hasn't posted in would cause a split lobby of 9 and 8 in each lobby, in decision making for those not posted in before the event.

RACE

Rolling Start
Competitors will form up behind the Safety Car to start the Formation/Pace Lap in a 2-by-2 fashion. The Pole Sitter will have choice over which side of the Grid to start on. We ask all drivers to listen to the lobby host for the pace speed and grid order. Once everyone is in position, And the Lead driver(s) pass the Pit Entrance, The person on pole for the given lobby can begin the 3-2-1 countdown when he/she desires.

Mandatory Pit Stops
There is 1 mandatory pit stop in each race (or race segment). Taking your pit stop under a Safety Car/Caution period will count as your Mandatory pit. You may not pit within the first 5 laps or last 5 laps of a race or race segment (First 3 or Last 3 laps at Old Mulsanne layout of Le Mans due to lower lap count.)

Race Rules

Bump Drafting
- Bump Drafting may only be allowed at the Sunset Oval rounds. Make sure the driver(s) you are in a group with know of your intentions to bump draft, be it the lead car or the 'pusher'. Also, "SLAM" Drafting will be deemed illegal and could be penalized. by Definition, SLAM Drafting is where the following car gets such a large run on the car ahead and gives a forceful push to the car ahead. With the Forza 4 physics, these types of hits will easily damage both drivers' vehicles, so it's in each drivers' best interest to know when and when not to draft one another.

Safety Car/Caution Rules

When The Safety Car is Used
The Safety Car will be deployed when Two or more drivers are involved in an incident and severely impairs their progress. Only driver(s) involved in an incident may request the Safety Car to the Lobby Captain. A Safety Car can be called up to the penultimate lap of the race. Once the leader has crossed the line to start the Final Lap, the caution/Safety Car cannot be called.

Forming a Safety Car Period
When the Safety Car period is agreed upon, and goes into effect, the Lead Driver at the time of the Safety Car 'Call', will act as the Safety Car and pace around the track at the track's designated 'pace' speed. All will form in single-file. SEEING THE STOCK CARS DO NOT HAVE BRAKE LIGHTS, PLEASE DO NOT SLAM ON THE BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN. THIS WILL CAUSE CHAOS. PLEASE JUST LET OFF THE THROTTLE AND FORM UP CAREFULLY!!!

Conduct During a Safety Car Period
While under the Safety Car period, Those involved in the incident should line up at the back of the grid. All competitors are free to pit under the Safety Car/Caution period, but must form back up in order when they left pit lane at the back of the grid. Once Everyone has rejoined the field, the field will line up Side-By-Side in the positions they are currently in. Once the Leader has passed the Final Corner, he can call out the restart by counting down "3..2..1..Go/Green."

Lucky Dog Award
The Lucky Dog Award is used under Caution/Safety Car periods only. The first person 1 lap behind will be awarded the 'Lucky Dog' to get back on the Lead lap, and allowed to pass the lead cars under caution and lining back up at the back of the field. The drivers involved in the incident that brought out the current Safety Car/Caution period, are not eligible for the 'Lucky Dog'.

"Green-White-Checkered"
The "Green-White-Checkered" rule takes effect when a Safety Car/Caution is called on the penultimate lap. the Final Lap will end under caution in present order each driver is in at the time of caution. Once all drivers are back to the main lobby, the race settings will change to 3 laps, for the Green-White-Checkered attempt. One the 1st lap, will be to form up in order drivers finished the 'Scheduled Distance.' Lap 2 & 3 are green flag laps. If there is an incident on the first green flag lap, the safety car/caution Can be called, and the 3rd lap in this 'attempt' will end under caution, and once everyone gets back to the main lobby, We will have another "Green-White-Checkered" attempt. 3 Attempts are the maximum. As stated above, Once the Leader crosses the Start/Finish line to start the Final Lap, The Safety Car cannot be called.

Race Restarts
The race lobby is subject to One restart attempt if more than 50% of the lobby is involved in a major incident within the first lap. Everyone will head back to the race lobby, and try again, forming up the same as the grid formation before. if another major incident occurs, standard Safety Car rules take effect.

QUALIFYING

Qualifying will be held at 9:30pm BST (4:30pm EDT), apart from any driver who is experiencing connection issues. Qualifying will start no later than 10 minutes after the 'bottom of the hour'.

Settings
Qualifying will be set to 4 laps. One Out-Lap, 2 "Flying laps", and one IN-lap. Once You have started Lap 4, please stop at a designated spot on the track so lobby host(s) can take down lap times. "Clean" laps take Priority of Dirty laps. So Make them Count!
-Oval Races
Everyone will line up on the apron of the track (or in front of Pit-exit), and TWO Drivers will go at a time, but in a staggered roll-off style. Meaning, 'Driver A' will go first, then 'Driver B' will go after a certain number of seconds have elapsed on the Race Timer. Once both drivers have completed their qualifying runs, the next two drivers can start, following the same process.
(i.e.: if 'Driver A' starts at x:35.000, then Driver B will start at x:50.000)
- ABS, STM, and TCS and locked off. Manual Transmission (Clutch is optional), Steering and Driving Line are up to the individual.
***For "Sunset Speedweeks", you get your normal 2-Flying laps, but this qualifying session is set-up very similar to NASCAR's qualifying and 'Duels', where only the fastest two qualifiers are Locked In on the front row, and where you qualify determines which "Qualifying Duel" Race you'll be in to determine the remaining positions.***

RACE

The Race for the "Sunset 250" is on Saturday, May 10th, 2014. Lobbies will open at 4pm EDT (9pm BST) with a 4:30pm (9:30pm BST) Start time. Make sure you are ready for invites next week!!!

-There will be TWO 50-lap segments to cover the 100 total laps.
- ABS, STM, and TCS and locked off. Manual Transmission (Clutch is optional), Steering and Driving Line are up to the individual.

-----Safety Car Speed for Sunset Oval is: 90mph-----

................

****The Drivers who have qualified this weekend, are automatically locked "IN" for this event. Those who missed Qualifying that had posted IN, have priority over the next available Lobby Grid Spots. Anyone can still post "IN" that did not post in for the Qualifying Session, but you will be placed behind those who missed qualifying.THIS WILL ONLY GO FOR THOSE WHO HAVE REGISTERED FOR THE SERIES BEFORE THE APRIL 30TH DEADLINE FOR ROUND 1!!****

"Boogity, Boogity, Boogity! Let's go Racin' Boys!"
