    I would think if the regs get changed it would change across all divisions not just one or two

    Tyre change just for enduro? I actually brought it up in private team chat. Was saying for this race just wouldn't be fun. Glad others agree

    So looks like normal start time then, which is preferable for me anyway

    Looks like we've got about 4 or so spots in Div 2 if anyone would like a run

    Round 5: Mount Panorama - 2x 11 Laps - Race 1 15:30 Sunny & Race 2 16:30 - 17/5 (Sprint Round)
    [​IMG]

    WELCOME to Season 11!!
    As always please take 2 mins to read the following so you have an understanding of what is expected on race night......If you have any questions, or want clarification on any of the rules or regulations please ask!

    ROOM OPEN : Most room captains will 'try' to have rooms open by about 7:50 AEST. Please be on time, or let the room captain or div thread if you may be late. If all agree, the room may wait for you, Within reason. Please remember we have drivers from NZ, and later starts mean a much later night for them.
    QUALIFYING : 8:20 AEST for 5 mins. Qualifying will occur in practice mode at x2 fuel in this division. Pits are CLOSED during qualifying.
    Once 5 mins has been reached, finish the lap you are on and park up off track.
    RACE START TIME : 8:25-30 AEST (once qualifying has finished)

    LAG ISSUES / ROOM RESTARTS : This is up to the room host/captains. If there is a Disconnection (or cars stuck on grid) at race start, it is sporting to try to get them back in, which may mean a new room to be set up. I always look at 1 or 2 starts if required due to DSC, but as it gets later everyone needs to be aware of getting things going. Please be as reasonable as you can with this....
    SIGHT ISSUES: Ensure that you can see everyone on track. Before qualifying, exit to lobby and spend 30 seconds in spectate mode, scroll through the list of drivers on track and make sure that you can see their car. If you can't see somebody (and they are confirmed as being on track), exit the lobby, re-join, and check again.

    ROLLING START : If a driver has a connection issue, their car has the possibility of not following the rolling start procedure and instead turning in a tight circle/into the wall and holding up drivers behind. In the instance this occurs, a restart MUST happen. If this isn't resolved after a restart, the affected driver can try once more starting rear of the grid. That way if the issue remains, they will hold no one up and can exit track.

    TURN 1 LAP 1 : With rolling start, we have more room going into T1, but you should still be cautious not to dive into someone. If your unassisted tap causes someone to spin, you need to redress.

    TRACK LIMITS : As we are running with 'track limit penalties" OFF, we will run with our usual Raceonoz track limit regulations. This means you MUST have at least 2 wheels on the ripple strip OR white line that defines the track limit. If you do make a mistake and have to run outside the limits, be aware that you are not allowed to gain any advantage.

    CONTACT : Is to be avoided at all times..... If you rear end someone and gain an advantage, YOU ARE EXPECTED to give the spot back. Side by side 'rubbing' is racing, within reason, but all drivers are expected to give racing room.
    If you bump someone and they end up off track or teleport back to the corner entry, you must wait for them to rejoin and get back up to speed.
    Show each other RESPECT! It is difficult enough to drive the car at the limit on your own, without someone squeezing you within a millimeter of the grass.
    So be patient and show respect to your fellow drivers.

    TYRES : Racing Mediums

    PIT ENTRY :
    Drivers MUST make an attempt to use the pit entry / exit lines.
    PIT EXIT : Please use the pit exit lane and be aware of cars approaching out of T1.
    NOTE: Pitting is NOT COMPULSORY

    BLUE FLAGS : Please observe blue flags, and move out of the way of faster cars if you are being lapped. Failure to observe blue flags WILL result in a penalty

    STEWARDS GROUP AND RACE PROTESTS : This season the stewards will be will be @Hatfield @JonoStan96 @Viperzed & @emmo46. If you have reason to protest, please SAVE YOUR REPLAY, and then let us know via a PM.
    DO NOT BLOW UP IN THE FORUM OR IN THE ROOM CHAT. There have been multiple incidents where the replays from drivers have been different, so its true that sometimes things are not as black and white as they may seem. You have until MIDNIGHT, Monday night to register your protest via PM. We will ask for video evidence from both drivers or room captain to make any decision.

    SAVE YOUR REPLAY : If the room host can ask all drivers to save their replay would be good before exiting the room.....once they exit out and the option goes, it cant be retrieved!

    PARTY CHAT : With the new party chat feature able to hold up to 16 participants, each division will have an open party chat for those that wish to use it. We recommend this especially to new drivers as they may ask questions about how the night is run or to clarify anything they are not confident on.

    PARKING UP : If you are unable to continue to race, please enter the pits and leave your game paused without selecting tyres (or no tyres) so that your car stays parked in the pits. Parking up off track activates yellow flags in the sector, and even though penalties are off, we have reports of penalties occurring for passes happening near the parked car.

    SPRINT ROUND: This seasons sprint round, the second race will be based on previous race results (NOT REVERSE GRID). Also both races will be worth full points, then your points from both races is added together, and you are ranked against all other drivers in your division. This ranking is how normal round points are allocated, and then FL/pole points are added last.

    FINAL NOTE: Could all drivers please confirm their attendance for this Sunday by 'liking' this post in your division. If you are unable to attend, please post in reply as much in your division. This way we can figure out our reserves or if the room can start early in advance.
    (ALSO IF YOU KNOW YOU CANNOT ATTEND, PLEASE POST SAYING SO, SO THAT RESERVES CAN BE ORGANISED IN ADVANCE)

    So might as well bring it up now.. havnt races all 11 laps here yet. But assuming tyres/fuel will struggle to last and a pit stop needed

    Is this a true sprint round were we shouldn't have to pit and is all about driving to the max??

    Or is this just a shorter round with a pit stop needed?? (Not a sprint round in my books)

    Would like to know with a bit of time to prepare.

    Sprint rounds have had pitstops in the past, nothing new here. The defining difference of sprint rounds to normal rounds, is that they are shorter. It is possible to finish without a pitstop required.

    Yeah I know just wanted to make sure, been in both type of sprint races here. Sprint races with pitstops are crap, not really a sprint race. Much prefer a sprint race that is just that, a all out sprint ;)

    After the mess around with the weekends race, wanna confirm Bryan's plan was to have a pitstop during the race. Or did he mean for it to be pitless.

    Don't wanna practice then have it change Saturday

    I think the term you are looking for is strategy.
    As Hat mentioned you can choose to make the tyres / fuel last or not.

    You can rest assured nothing will change come Sunday. I set up the race as it is so that you have a choice. There are no right or wrong answers here.

    Hey guys!
    I am going to be leaving ROOZ effective as of today. I have health issues and am going to be in hospital for rounds 6 and 7 sadly.

    It does leave me available for this week, but as I struggle a lot with time during the week to put in the practice, it leaves me a bit flatfooted during races. I would rather punt a reserve driver up ready to go, get them in now so they can get up to speed for Bathurst.

    I did become a gold member the brief time I was here to show support and am thankful for the tireless and sometimes frustrating task of keeping this thing going. I have enjoyed the quality of driving and people. I wish you all the best in your future races.

    Thank you and good luck :)

    All the best with your treatment.

    I highly doubt we will have a full room so feel free to come race even if it's without any practice.
