Season 11: Toyota GT86 Season Info and Sign Up
« on: March 20, 2016, 08:44:30 PM »
Season 11 features 20 minute, reverse grid sprint races in the Toyota GT86.

Season Schedule
Round 1: Apr 5, Barbagallo, 3 x 16 laps [DOWNLOAD]
Round 2: Apr 12, Magione, 3 x 13 laps
Apr 19 - bye -
Round 3: Apr 26, Zandvoort, 3 x 10 laps
Round 4: May 3, Modena (Fast), 3 x 18 laps [DOWNLOAD]
Round 5: May 10, Nurburgring Sprint (GT), 3 x 11 laps
Round 6: May 17, Vallelunga Classic, 3 x 13 laps

Race 1 prac/qual starts at 8:30pm Eastern time, and there is usually a long practice session before that, starting from around about 6:00pm.

Round Format
Each race is a full reverse grid race with no qualifying sessions (only round 1, race 1, has a qualifying session to set start order). Race 1 of a round is in reverse order of championship points standings, and races 2 and 3 are in reverse order of the previous race finish.

Fuel and tyres are 1x and there are no compulsory pit stops.

Points
Points are 24, 23, 22 down to 1.
Fastest lap in each race gets 1 point bonus.

Penalties
Every major infringement (e.g. avoidable rear hits, unsafe track re-entry causing accidents etc), will be awarded 150kg of penalty ballast for the 1st race only of the next round (150 kg is approximately 10 seconds over the whole race, but the time lost will vary from track to track).

Every minor infringement (e.g. not leaving racing room and squeezing someone off the track) will be awarded 75 kg.

Penalty ballast is cumulative - i.e. you might end up with more than 150 kg ballast for multiple infringements.

Weather
Weather will be taken from the Adelaide forecast on each actual race day. Races are at 9:30am, 12:30pm and 3:30pm.

Track grip will simulate rainy conditions, according to the Adelaide forecast:
Damp track - 85% grip
Wet track - 75% grip
Very wet track - 65% grip

Is it ever dry in Adelaide.  ;D

Sign me up Wally, the ballast penaltues seem a bit harsh and there may be a few guys towing caravans around. If that doesnt help guys to try and avoid contact nothing will as even a few kilo's would likely cost a bit of time in these low powered cars.

I'm keen to get back into racing if there's a spare spot left. Got my cockpit made now so won't have to keep pulling the camp chair back into the desk any more.

Yes thank you please.

Good call on the Adelaide weather. I do hope we get a wet track though for some fun.

Believe it or not, it rarely rains in Adelaide.

I've done the testing on the ballast. It's roughly equivalent to a 10 second penalty like you'd get for repeated cutting.
