    For all the Super Speedway fans, and to mark Matt Brabhams attempt to qualify for the historic, 100th Indy 500.

    ROOZ INDY 500 (km)
    When - Saturday 28th May , Qually 8:20pm , Start 8:30pm
    Track - Indianapolis Speedway
    Car - Formula Gran Turismo
    Laps - 125, (500km, 1hr 40 mins approx.)
    Tuning - Open, no limit
    Tyres - RH , normal wear (tyres & fuel)
    Qually - 1 out lap, 1 flying lap, then park on the infield
    Start - Double File Rolling Start
    Boost - None / Off
    Penalty - Off
    Grip - Real
    Damage - Light
    Aids - ABS only, all others Off

    Competition Caution - If anyone DSC's in the first 25 laps, everyone else races to the end of lap 30, where we'll all line up in order for a restart with 95 laps to go, with the DSC's starting from the back of the field. After that, it's GREEN FLAG to the finish. If no one DSC's , it's Green Flag full distance
    (so if ya DSC, it wasnt all for nothing)

    *edit*
    Qualifying :-
    - will be run in practice mode.
    - after a re-set, everyone enters the pit but doesn't go out on track.
    - will leave the pits in the order of the blue boxes (the order the game puts you on the driver list) one at a time.
    -the first driver goes out for their run, then the next driver (No.2 blue box) leaves for their run, as the driver in front crosses the first split timer line (after T2, at the very start of the back strait)
    - as driver No.2 crosses the first split timer line, Blue box driver No.3 leaves for their run,
    - continues through No.4 leaves as No.3 crosses it , continuing through all drivers.
    - When its your run, get on it strait away (no point swerving warming tyres, you need to get your momentum going strait away) put in your flying lap, cross the line , and keep on the gas around turn 1&2 then pull over to the left just after the pit exit and park it , keeping clear of the pit exit road.

    If everyone does this, the timing works to perfection that everybody gets a clear, no draft assisted run, without anybody tripping over any other driver, and will only take about 7 mins or so.

    -Once the last driver finishes their lap, race starts (so it's not possible to have a qually set up, and race set up)
    -if you have a spin during qually, get off track as quickly as possible and park it on the infield where you are, so as not to affect everyone else.


    Race End Timer -
    - will be set at 45 secs.
    - once the leader crosses the finish line, there will be 40 secs left of everybodies race. (about one and a quarter laps)
    Pits - When leaving the Pits, follow the pit exit/infield road past turn 1 and 2, and merge out onto the back strait, keeping aware of other traffic, so not just swinging across to the outside wall.make it as a steady merge, keeping clear of, and not blocking any other cars.

    Driving (general stuff that i'm sure everyone would always do :whistling:;) )
    - All the ROOZ Racing rules apply, keep it clean, keep it fun.
    - re-dress any incident that may have been caused, or was avoidable, by you.
    - No bump and runs. Slip back behind them, and wait till they are fully back up to speed.
    - No swerving or blocking, hold a line. If someone's overtaking you, you'll get a shot back at them on the next lap,
    - We all know racing incidents happen, but we'll try and keep em to a minimum :)

    Mic's - I'm thinking about leaving them on, just for general chatter, and commentry from some , but not positive on this as some don't like it.

    Are we running team liveries?

    Also, are we replicating IndyCar specs (700kg, 550-700hp)?

    I thought about teams, but it's not really a bump-draft race (speeds seem too high for that), and i guess its not really a teams race, more "all about the win." Who really remembers who came second in the real 500 ;)
    If people want, they can say what livery they want to run, and other's can choose some other livery to use, so we get a mix, but am not gonna make it a thing, unless the majority want that. :)

    Full Noise, no limits on tuning, max it out, as -
    1. There's no need to muck around checking any any reg's on the night
    2. the lap times are only a bit quicker than the record lap time around there
    3. there is no way to truly replicate an Indy car in G.T., as you cant have push to pass (not even by using a bottle of NOS)

    Let's pretend Prost entered IndyCar instead of F1 so I'll be in the dark blue Mugen Honda car :)

    Good to see there are still community events coming for GT6 :)
