Success Ballast
Podium Finishers from each classes will be incurred Success Ballast Penalties (added weight) for the following race. Success Ballast Penalties can only be removed 20kg at a time if you miss the podium the very next race. Ballast will accumulate depending on your success. Your ballast stays with you even if you miss a race, you can only get ballast reduced if you finish 4th or lower in a race.

There is no mandated location or weight distribution for your ballast weight; you may change the position, just not the weight, at any time and at your discretion.

Weights are added as follows:

1st: +60 kg
2nd: +40 kg
3rd: +20 kg

There will be no Success Ballast enforced during the Endurance race at Daytona, and for the last race of the series at Suzuka.

-500HP MAX
-1100KG MIN

Tire Restrictions:
-None (All Racing Tires permitted)

Image

Event Settings:

-Slipstream Strength: Low
-Tire Wear / Fuel Consumption: On
-Grip Reduction on Wet Track / Track Edge: Real
-No ASM
-No Skid Recovery Force

PLEASE NOTE

Visible Damage will be set to OFF (For pretty photos)

Image

Red Flag procedure
-When the person rejoins the room the current time index & lap # will be taken.
-No passing is to occur and all cars are to proceed to the front straight but behind the start/finish line.
-In current order, cars will pass the start/finish line to see if any cars are 1 lap behind the leader or more.
-Car order and laps down will be noted for the restart.
-The car that dropped will be placed behind the last place car. (Call this mechanical difficulties).
-The time index or lap count taken will be used to calculate the remaining time/laps of the race.
-Laps maybe added to the remain laps to allow for the lead cars to "relap" the lapped cars.
-The race will be restarted, however the first lap(s) will be used to get the cars into proper order and laps down if needed.
-Once any lapped cars have been "relapped" the first place car will lead as a "pace car" for 1 lap. No cars may change positions until after crossing the start/finish when the race condition is again green.


Bluetooth Headsets Strongly Recommended!
I can't stress that enough! Any Bluetooth headset will work, just make sure to pair it with your PS3. Futureshop has a good selection as well.

I've been away for a while, but I really want into this series, I'll get on later to pick the car.

*edit* I'm going to go with the Raybrig NSX 06. I was going to go with the Z car, but I seen it was taken already.

So tuning is allowed, just have to stay under the 500hp and 1100kg limits, correct?

I was pretty happy with the NSX, as long as I'm smart with the throttle, the car is fast and sticks well.

It just drives me nuts, very few passing zones, and I find it a hard track to make up time. For some reason even when I keep very consistent on the track, the car never reacts the same in the corners. I like a few different tracks though, I love racing the Sarthe, and I'd love to do a time change race on it!!

Let me look into the specs of that car and get back to you.

If more people join we may need to open it up to non-premium (standard/used) SuperGT cars.

I was going to ask about that car, but it was a bit low on torque for me, so I wasn't going to take it anyway, but I am pretty sure it is well within the specs of the series. Has the worst interior view though, a bar straight through the center of the drivers view...
