Steward Inquiry Reference Number: 1481

https://clips.twitch.tv/FreezingCogentElkSSSsss-W2pYF0qLBczU8HtK

Description by JustUnkuuu: Coming in to turn 1, Heikonyan is able to take a small bit more exit speed off the corner from the outside line, and doesn't account for the car of Scarlett, who was on the inside line into the corner. This causes a bit of contact and lifts the rear wheels of the 962, sending it into a spin and into the wall.



Stewards Decision: No further action. After viewing the replays it is apparent that lag was the probable cause of this incident.

SI-1506 | TEC | Round 2 | Lobby A | SFM Darkzer | AMS Brooksy, SFM Darkzer

Steward Inquiry Reference Number: 1506
Drivers Involved: AMS Brooksy, SFM Darkzer
Series: TEC
Round: 2
Race: Stint 3
Lobby: A
Lap: 14?

Evidence: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meE6ZDWS19g

Description by SFM Darkzer: I get a wheel on the grass going into the last corner and break loose, gassing it to try to straighten the car. After correcting the car, Brooksy slams into my right rear, upsetting the car. I state in Discord that I intend to pit, while still trying to correct the car back straight. Brooksy makes additional contact in the pit entry, causing significant damage.



Stewards Decision: Racing incident. This was a tough call as it was either a racing incident or penalty for both. Racing incident seemed more appropriate. The entire incident was initially caused by Darkzer's loss of control in front of oncoming traffic. He then attempts to get into the pits even though Brooksy is still inside him. None of this was intentional by either driver and there was some obvious confusion as a result.

Stewards Decision: boiledbord88 will be assessed a 3.5k penalty for violating the end of stint procedure by going into the pit lane. While no real advantage was gained, it's still a procedural violation.

Description by PTG Chungus : Clips of Lmp Quickly cutting the track to defend against myself and Kirito.

I'd accept once or twice but...this was constant with no regard. One thinks it could have been all race



Stewards Decision: LMP Quickly will be assessed a 3.5k penalty for violating track limits. Some of the violations were possibly due to hard racing with others, but there were enough cuts overall to warrant a penalty.

Incident at around 40 seconds ish

Description by APEX BLADE87 : Unpredictable GT car moves from left side to right as I am passing at a very high speed section entering Canada corner.

I had already committed to passing on the right as I expected the GT to hold the left side as was the case with LITERALLY EVERYONE ELSE.

By the time the gap had closed on me I had no chance to brake or change back to the left without also crashing into the GT, resulting in me taking partly to the grass and still ending up rear ending him and damaging the car.

Steward Inquiry Reference Number: 1490
Drivers Involved: CCX Mattimus, LMP Kainry & SSR Gruwel
Series: TEC Endurance - Road America
Round: 2 / Road America
Race: 2 as above
Lobby: B
Lap: Unknown - at race finish

Evidence: https://clips.twitch.tv/CrowdedGeniusSangSwiftRage-_oC3mcPVkQkj_uAa

Description by CCX Mattimus: LMP Kairny didn't stop at the 20 minute mark as per the rules. He drove passed me and SSR Gruwel and then stopped. The distance between me and LMP Gruwel after SSR Gruwel left was 418FT but I guess you can work this out from the stream clip as attached. LMP ItofSan communicated the issue after the fact but as the distances were taken, I was told to submit this. It appeared by LMP drives knew what they had done but failed to correct it at the time. Any questions, let me know.



Stewards Decision: LMP Kairny will be assessed a 7.5k penalty for failing to stop at the stated time at the end of the stint and gaining distance as a result.

NOT AN SI, A PROCEDURAL CORRECTION:

The drivers in A lobby followed 60 MPH for the full out lap as per the rules. The drivers in D lobby did not, as evidenced by DOR CharlieT's onboard. Note the 37 second difference between when the first cars begin racing in A lobby versus D lobby. Between the time the corresponding cars in A lobby started racing vs Charlie, Charlie was over a mile into the first full speed lap. This failure to follow the start speed gave D lobby an unfair advantage compared to A, B, and C in the first stint.

Evidence: A1 start - https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/761677800633139260/1099728056014356500/Capture_decran_268.png

DOR CharlieT POV - https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1800546353?t=00h43m58s

TORA staff concluded this was an error by the lobby host dictating a speed of 80 MPH instead of 60. While we recognize that the drivers were only following directions, we do not feel it fair to allow distance gained from an incorrect procedure to stand.

To that end we will be adjusting ALL distances from stint 1 in D lobby:

Gr.X - 1.4 miles (7392 ft) will be deducted
Gr.T - 1.3 miles (6864 ft) will be deducted
