Season 22 - GT Team ChallengeNow that we have some experience with the GT mod, we have made some to the rules now that we have some better data on the cars and drivers. In a departure from previous seasons we have replaced the token system with one that handicaps the cars on a per race basis through timed pitstops
This new series will consist of ten races.
Teams
a) Teams will be made up of 3 drivers with free choice of chassis
b) Teams can be formed from the existing teams in UKGPL ( Wazas, Soggies, Clarke Hill, Antipasta etc) or by any alliances which you care to make.
Drivers
d) Drivers will be valued relative to their points score at the end of last season and their experience ( and speed ).
e) Any drivers who register for the new season, but who did not compete last season, will be assessed and assigned a token value.
Cars
f) Once the teams have been assembled they will then be able to spend the remaining tokens on 3 cars which they will use for all ten races.
g) All drivers must drive all 3 cars that the team has purchased at least 3 times during the 10 race season. If a driver competes in all 10 races he will be able to drive 1 of the cars 4 times.
Points
h) Points will be awarded as last season, so getting all 3 drivers to the finish will increase the team score.
j) At the end of the 10 race championship any TEAM which has not complied with rule "g" will have its BEST TEAM points result of the season cancelled.
k) Each driver will drop his worst 2 results, in line with the other championships, this gets over the problem of missed races and 2 man teams looking for a sub at the last minute.
Racing
There will be rolling starts for all races.
The events will be run on Intermediate damage and allow ONE Shift-R with a compulsory Stop and Go pit stop regardless of fault.
Any driver who fails to take a Stop and Go within 1 lap after a Shift-R, will be disqualified from the results.
For this division the full moderation will include both the warm up lap and the red zone lap one proper.
