Sign Up Procedure
Interested drivers, with a licensed membership can apply for a place in the league but we decide who will eventually drive based on a few criteria:
- driving standards
- commitment
- participation in previous RD leagues
This means that some people will be disappointed but that is unfortunately the downside of this system.
Sign-ups open: Monday August 1st 2011
Sign-ups closed: Thursday August 18th 2011
Drivers list will be announced Saturday August 20th 2011
Qualification
The qualification this season will be held over 2 sessions, Q1 and Q2. All drivers go out in Q1 to set their fastest lap in an open qualification session, the top 10 of Q1 will enter Q2 for a superpole battle.
After Q1 (ingame known as Practice 2) we continue to Q2 (ingame knows as qualifcation) where only the top 10 of Q1 will drive a superpole lap, the rest of the drivers (11 till 30) will remain in their pitbox till Q2 session is finished.
In Q2 drivers need to drive their outlap, hotlap and inlap, 3 laps in total. If drivers outside the top 10 start a lap in Q2 they will be disqualified for the race!
Liveries
Each car will have its own livery. If you cannot skin a car yourself we encourage you to find somebody who can within the community or download one of the hundreds of skins from the RaceDepartment database.
Livery deadline: Wednesday August 31 2011
Absence
This is the most important part of the league briefing you need to understand! If you are qualified to drive the in league we expect you to be present during all races of the season. If you happen to miss out on an event and go missing in action afterwards without giving any notice the race staff reserve the rights to terminate your licensed member status on RaceDeparment.
You can report absence until Friday prior to the race by writing a post via this link (tba). On Saturday morning the final line ups will be presented by a forum post in this section. No more absences are allowed after posting the final list.
Incidents
It may happen that rules get violated. In such cases it is up to the drivers to report the violation. The staff encourages this and will only investigate incidents that are reported by drivers.
No report = no investigation = no penalty
A report can be sent to the staff by clicking this link (tba) It must always contain:
- Name of the league: RDTCC S7
- The name of the reported driver (the violator)
- A link to a youtube movie that shows the incident in various angles
- A short description of the incident, without rant.
You can only send a report if you were actually in the race. Report from outsiders will be not be considered.
After sending the staff will then investigate the incident. Incomplete reports will not be considered.
Reports must be sent within 24 hours of the finish of the race. Reports that come in too late might not be considered.
