Moderator's Report

A great opening race to season 22 Gt's.

The rolling start was good for 95% of the grid until T2 and then it was good for 100% until T6, where it dropped to 95% again!!!.
Fulvio thought that he had gained an extra 2 cylinders in his Porsche at the start, as he passed many cars around the outside of T1, until reality dawned at T2. Juha was rolling comfotably until he got a wheel on the grass at T6 and had to suffer the embarresment of waving to the whole grid as it cruised pasthis stranded Lola.
There were only 2 reported incidents after that, both involving the eventual winner of the race.


Server replay time: 0h11m30s

Rash move at Turn 7 is how Samb reported it but "opportunist and ill fated" might be a fairer description.
Somehow Sam managed to carry enough speed off of T6 to get partially alongside Al before T7, a distance of about 50 mtrs??!! This caught Al completely by surprise as Sam's Lola was now precisely where Al thought his clear apex ought to be.
The contact fired Al into the barriers and he lost several places whilst Sam escaped unscathed, continuing on to win the race.
The contact happened because Al did not see or expect Sam to be able to get his car into that position in such a tight sequence of bends, otherwise he might well have left room for both cars and avoided contact.

This is a classic example of the "perceived overlap" dilemma in GPL. I suggest that anyone who has not read the info here..https://www.ukgpl.com/rec_dvr_beh/rec_driver_beh.htm reads it NOW.

Al's car is intending to take the normal racing line, from wide on the left of the track, tight to the right through the apex and running out to the left again afterwards. Because his line through the bend is on a greater radius he actually starts his turn in much earlier than Sam will.
Sam is making a dive up the inside and cannot therefore take the classic sweep through the corner. He must literally follow the edge of the track on the inside and therefore his "turn in point" is only 10 mtrs short of the apex in this instance.
At Al's turn in point, Sam has only 30% overlap and can be said to have no right to the corner. But, at Sam's turn in point Sam has almost 100% overlap!! just at the moment that Al hits him. I think we have to rule Sam's attempted overtake as "ambitious", because the only way that both cars were going to make this corner, would require Al to give up his right to the racing line and allow Sam to go through on the inside.

The overtaking driver had NOT achieved 100% or greater overlap at the point of turn-in. There was no loss of control by either driver. Penalty for overtaking driver.

This type of incident occurs regularly in on line races and we have to moderate fairly and consistantly in these cases. We have therefore always deemed the turn in point to be that of the leading car, which in this case is Al's.

I have asked the opinion of the other moderators on this incident and the general agreement is that a penalty should be applied. But, Al has asked that no penalty be given because he knows from experience that Sam is not a reckless driver and would not have risked such a move if he did not think it fair. Had this been a Lap 1 incident Al would not have had that discretion and the Mods would have applied a penalty.

We have decided therefore, because of Al's comments, to mitigate this to a warning instead of the usual penalty.




  • Samb (Sam Blood)warning — Rash move at Turn 7
    For advice only - unreported by victim, so penalty disregarded


Server replay time: 0h39m10s

Incident at T6 with Clive Gardner and Samb.

I would like to be able( on a purely personal level as I finished behind Sam) penalise Sam and drop him 10 places, but this was a warp contact that caused Clive's car to spin.
The replays clearly show that there was no actual contact, although Sam is very close to the rear of Clive's car.

Warp Contact....Racing Incident

  • Samb (Sam Blood)advice — Contact with rear of Clive's car T6
    For advice only - unreported by victim, so penalty disregarded

UKGPL Season 22 GT Teams Championship
Race 1 Surfers Paradise

Welcome to the opening round of the GT Teams Championship for Season 22.

The venue for our first race is the wonderful Surfers Paradise track in sunny Queensland. Many of the GP stars were found here through the 60's attending the Tasman Series events, a championship split between Australian and New Zealand tracks and often used by the teams as 'shakedown' races for their new chassis prior to the start of the new European F1 season. Be aware that it could be a little crowded early on and patience will be a must. Although we are not fully moderating the race, in view of the short length of the circuit the first two laps will be fully reviewed.

Download the circuit here

Please check the Season 22 pages for details regarding rules and the GT Teams Championship pages in particular.

Reserve drivers should not join the server until there are only 30 minutes of qualifying left so as to give the FULL TIME drivers chance to join, and drivers are not to go out on track until there are 30 minutes of qualifying left as this helps all drivers join the server successfully.

Please restrict chat to pit messages if necessary, and this includes the end of the race, until all running drivers have completed the necessary laps.

The GT races are run under Int Long rules and there will be full moderation of lap one Red Zone and reported incidents for the rest of the race, however the moderators reserve the right to review any incident. Drivers are reminded that they are limited to ONE Shift-R

Please submit incident reports within a week after the race so that the moderators report may be out before the next race.

Race List = iGOR
Server = T7_2

Password: see above

There will be rolling starts for all races with full moderation of both the warm-up and first lap.

Guidelines for rolling starts...

The car on pole will lead off the grid and maintain a steady pace for the 1st lap around 175kph
All drivers should form up in single file behind him leaving 3-4 car lengths between each car.
There is NO OVERTAKING on the 1st lap until the exit of the last corner.
It is the reponsibility of the lead car to ensure that all drivers are with him as he approaches the final corner.
Racing and overtaking begin AFTER the exit of the last corner, so you may overtake between the exit of the last corner and the S/F line.

Any driver who loses his position on the rolling lap, by going off, blowing his engine or through contact with another car ( regardless of fault) must rejoin at the back of the field.
Incidents on the rolling lap ( Lap 1) will be fully modded and anyone found to have caused another competitor to lose position through bad driving will be penalised appropriately.
Also, please make sure that you know which car you should be following on the rolling lap, so that you do NOT get out of position.

The teams have been chosen and the cars are polished and ready to go.

It looks like Hiki Waza has pulled a late change to its line up, just to catch everyone else with their pants down ( we don't have that problem, fundoshis NEVER come loose!!)

Tim ( FMG) has returned for a guest series under HER gracious wing. It means that we have had to swap some cars around to get within the budget but we are OK now.

So, despite the intro repeatedly mentioning the 65's, this is the GT race- right? I'm getting older and easier to confuse:)

Lol Nigel....just a little gaff that escaped the notice of the editor, and certainly not a deliberate attempt to confuse you. It is fixed.

Hmmm. Less than great. As a reigning champ in the GTs ( Grin) I was quite looking forward to this one...

Alex and Mark didn't appear in iGOR so I waited until 9:25 - so no setup and no qually and when I started the Ford was pulling to the right horribly. I couldn't even keep it straight on the straights. Thought I would pootle around waiting for accidents then rolled it at T3 on L3. Didn't wnat to use my precious Shift-R but it was so bad to drive that I thought "I am not enjoying this". Bailed out.

Got to get the Ford sorted but I wish Alex had chosen a Porsche.

Where did Mark get to me wonders...

Next time Godzilla boys - 9pm iGOR pls. Wink

LOL I should have read it before...
I shifted in Porsche mod and started like a rocket very proud of myself, after have passed almost all the field after T1 a light came in my old brain  Shocked  Embarrassed

I left by all the cars till Steve, but I'm not sure to have let by Nigel too, have to watch replay, anyway no escuses for a dumb ass move  Embarrassed

Later in the race I struggled a lot with Steve to stay behind Tim that had a very wide GT40 in the twisty bits  Grin

Unfortunately I rear ended Tim when I didn't take account of his lower turn speed, plus it was like there was a lag, anyway my fault there, sry for ruin your race Tim.

Off to watch replay...
