Car: Dallara Indycar
Track: Lowes Oval

Practice: approx. 18:00 for 115 mins
Qualifying: 20:20 and is 4 laps (lone)
Race: 75 laps

Start: rolling
Re-starts: rolling
Flags: full course yellows (see below)

ONE 'fast tow' (reset) available for each driver (available by pressing SHIFT+R by default)

NOTE: All sessions protected by the main password, there is no seperate 'pre-event practice'

Starting Procedure

Once all drivers are on the grid, the pace car will lead the field around the track and exit the course as late as possible to enter pit lane.

As the front row of cars approach the start/finish line, the green flag will be shown, signifying the start of the race.

Drivers shall not pass cars in their own pacing line on the left hand side before the start/finish line. Drivers attempting to improve their position by passing on the left-hand side before the start/finish line will be assessed a black flag Stop-and-Go penalty by Race Control.

The leader of the second pace line may not pass the leader of the first pace line (pole position) before the start/finish line. Doing so will result in a black flag Stop-and-Go penalty.

Yellow Flags

The flag signals are the same as on the road course with the exception of the yellows;

Yellow Flag – When displayed, indicates caution, danger, no passing, be prepared to slow down. Line up behind the pace car as instructed by Race Control. Competitors may not pass until the Yellow flag is removed and the green flag is displayed, signifying a restart.

Restarts

A yellow flag will signal a full-course caution. The pacing order will be frozen at the moment the full-course caution begins. Cars involved in causing the caution or otherwise seen as out of control may, however, not be awarded a place in the pacing order until they are detected to be on course and under control. Race Control will instruct the leader to follow the pace car. All other drivers must line up in single file in accordance with instructions from Race Control. Up/down arrows will be shown to assist drivers in preparation for a restart. Failure to line up correctly by the time a driver attempts a pit entry or the race restarts will result in the driver receiving a black flag penalty.

While pacing during a full-course caution, Race Control will signify two laps to go, then one lap to go until the green flag restart.

When there is one lap of pacing to go until the green flag restart, Race Control may restructure the pace lines in preparation for the restart.

Restarts will be double file with lapped cars at the rear.

Practice: A server will be available from approx. 19:00 - 23:00 the day before the race

Password: see above

Re. the bit in red about re-starts.

I'm wondering if it would be safer to have lapped cars at the back of the pack on re-starts as this is now an option.

It does eliminate the chance for any lapped cars to get back on the lead lap but that's unbelieveably unlikey anyway tbh...

Is it worth running a poll on how many are likely to turn up for this?

If it's like 10, it seems reasonable that a road event could be scheduled instead?

The only thing that running polls tells you is that you probably shouldn't bother running any polls Smiley

This event will stand, if we get a poor turnout then there won't be any more oval races in the future.

They just don't get it Pops!
Don't let them drag you down!

A couple of words to the wise from the last time we did this.....

Need to be very ... let me say that again, very careful on cold tyres on the Start and restarts!
I think last time it was 3 good laps until the tyre grip levels came up!

Second, you don't win a race on those 3 laps! Racing each other too agressively is unwise and the main reason we had so many full course yellows last time! If you want to be competitive you need to practice driving those 3 cold laps so you are well prepared for the grip levels!

If you think this means we are not racing then again, you miss the point!  Grin

Getting bored defending the egg races!  Wink

Really looking forward to it!

I've run some laps and my set-up from the previous race we did here seems fine Smiley

In fact, I seem a tad quicker. I looked at my previous times and I'm not far off 0.1s faster in qualifying.

I don't think there have been any changes that would explain it, maybe I've just found a slightly better line.

Paul Richards is saying he's a tad quicker too so it looks like there has been a small change somewhere.

I've updated the announcement, re-starts will move lapped cars to the rear of the line.
