Round 1: Tsukuba - 44 Laps - 12:00 - 26/7 WELCOME to Season 12!! 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 10 mins. If a driver joins while qualifying mode is active, room captains will need to grab a quick photo of qualifying results, cancel the race and then set grid by host. In practice mode, once 10 mins has been reached, finish the lap you are on and park up off track. RACE START TIME : 8:30 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. FALSE START CHECK : Please note that the start type is Grid Start with False Start Check Please practice this so you know what to expect. Simply, you hold the brakes on until the lights go from all lit, to none lit TURN 1 LAP 1 : This has the potential to ruin someones night if we don't use our heads! Should be everyone's goal to get through the first phase with ZERO contact. Give room and run in your 'lane' till you have space to run the normal race line. 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. Be careful with the run-off on the exit of T12. 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 : Sports Mediums (mandatory) & Sports Softs PIT ENTRY : Please make an attempt to use the pit entry / exit lines. Failure to do so, where an incident/impede is caused, will have consequences 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 @JonoStan96 @Viperzed & @emmo46. If you have reason to protest, please SAVE YOUR REPLAY, and then let them 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. Stewards 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. 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)
Just a quick reminder (or information for those who were unaware) When running Raceonoz/ROOZ or team (SAR/BHR/SR/etc) lobbies, we are firstly a community. So we don't kick other rooz members from our lobbies (unless they are not following site guidelines eg threats etc) If this occurs, we may be forced to abandon the teams championship, which I wouldn't like to see happen
My dad had fun and he has an incentive to improve. Thanks for letting him in. Please bring up any incidents you saw with him letting lapped cars by and I will make sure he is well aware that he interfered with someone's race. You have my word on that. Finally, I saw the way qualifying began was quite sloppy. I don't know whether custom in div 5 is different but my dad had no idea when qualifying started and the accidental race start was also sloppy. I'm sure communication will improve throughout the season. Thanks - You guys are lucky to have such a brilliant car and track combo next week and I'm jealous
Yeah sorry mate the stuff ups with qualifying and the false race start were my fault I pressed the wrong button with the false race start and I thought everyone knew I'd started qualifying I'll make sure everyone knows from now on say sorry to your dad for me as for any incidents that he was involved in when being lapped I didn't see any and he was really good with not holding anybody up and getting out the way when being lapped from what I seen
From my perspective (first race tonight), it was good to have another newbie on track. Tell him that I said welcome. I didn’t see any him causing any incidents, he did well getting out of the way where necessary. If your Dad can get a headset during the week, getting involved in the chat session will help him know what’s going on with qualifying and race starts etc.
If he has a mobile, his phone headphones will work just fine. Plug them into the ps4 controller and you're good to go.
Hey Crunch, it was great to have him race with us. On one occasion I was trying to pass and may have caused him to have a bit of a moment. Hopefully he didn't get too annoyed. He seemed to be keeping up when he managed to keep it straight. I was like this not too long ago. With a few races under his belt he will find consistency & will be fine! Thanks to everyone for an enjoyable race, it was well mannered and ran pretty smooth. Looking forward to a full grid next week (hopefully) @Jimmygrimble69 @Easyprey007 @Bj88
Hey guys in regards to this week is everyone ok with starting at 8pm est rather than 8:20pm for qualiy As on average it will take us 20 mins just to do an out lap and one flyer let us know what everyone’s thoughts are on this Cheers
Guys, just a very quick post to all divs with regards to protests. The stewards group finds it very hard to act on protests and driver standards without a replay. If you dont know how to save your replay please ask someone ! There are plenty of guys willing to help you. - At the end of your race, if you have an incident to show the stewards group please save your race and then record the incident and forward it to them, with a brief explanation of why you are protesting, and who it is against - If for some reason you cant get your replay and want something looked at, ask the room captain or another driver if they have a replay available, to access to incident you want looked at. - Even if a driver redresses an incident, you might like to save and send it on regardless. Particularly if that driver has a history of incidents - If you choose NOT to protest anything, or in fact, if you HAVE put in a protest, PLEASE do NOT make a fuss about it on the forum. Let the stewards group do its job, and then work out if you accept the decision or take it to appeal. Protests are something that need to be done right, as it holds all drivers to account, but also represents the integrity of the league in general. A high driving standard is something that ALL drivers should strive for. Thanks Mod Team
@Aza2672 @Peersy @robin edwards I heard you guys had issues with qually on sunday just make sure the room is aware of issues via room chat and when things are happening, thanks

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. This round will be ONE out lap and ONE timed lap, then park on the left of the T1 hairpin. If the room is up early, drivers can complete the qually lap 5 mins early as long as room Captains give the go ahead. This will give the field more time to be spread out and drivers who join later (but still on time for 8:20) can jump in and complete their qually lap. Qualifying will occur in practice mode. RACE START TIME : 8:30 AEST (once qualifying has finished) LAG ISSUES / ROOM RESTARTS : This is up to the room host/captains.
