There should be exception also for fast S exit, shouldnt be?

I will quote the rules:
The Race Director may set up exceptions of the above mentioned rules for certain corners which will be announced on the forums.

I've a question. If I cut but I slow down it will be counted for this rule?

1) If driver has up to 10% illegal cut laps - no actions
2) If driver has more than 10% illegal cut laps - +30 sec race time penalty
3) If driver has more than 20% illegal cut laps - +60 sec race time penalty
4) If driver has more than 30% illegal cut laps - DQ

A cut lap shouldn't bring an advantage or the same time as an average race lap without a cut. A cut lap will be considered illegal if that lap is faster than 101.5% of the fastest clean lap of the stint the cut happened in. If a cut is made during a pit-in or -outlap, that lap will automatically be considered a cut lap, regardless of the laptime.

I know about it, thats why Im asking. Next time you can tell to your president to do not confuse people if what he told will be not taken into account. Rather just say "This wil be up to race directors..."

if I may ask why is considered all the lap and not the single sector?

Ben Eastman · Mar 31, 2015

Hopefully won't be enough people to need PQ as I am not looking forward to being up at 7am for that.

It will be annoying after practicing all this time to just be kicked out in PQ

Because We are not F1 and we have our own rulebook. That have to be answer enough

Than tell all your Friends about FSR and when there are more than 36 Drivers, the ones who missed Top26 will have a Grid2 race.

Maybe it's only because u wrote and it's harder to understant the tone of the voice but your answer it seems to me rude.
Anyway idk the F1 rule but if i cut in sector 1 without earn time and i made my best s2 and s3 it will be counted...

It doesn't make much difference if rule is sector or laptime. You still need a big lift to make sure laptime/sector is not inside 101.5% of the best one. It's obvious to anyone who reads rules anyway.

This was a discussion in TOA and the rules are pretty clear that it is up to the director.

Sorry, sometimes the translation from german to english make it sound a bit rude

But you have to understand me too. I get the whole day questions why this rule is this and that rule is that. Just accept the rules like they are and we will have a great season

Important Note:
Please send in your skin and helmet(optional) to:
villeneuve53@msn.com
or
david53@grecodavid.com

In the SUBJECT line of your email put "Division - Team"
Example: Pro Series - Avid Chronic Racing

Each team will need 2 car liveries and 2 helmet liveries(optional)

If the Skins arrive before Friday, they will be integrated in the Mod. There is a realistic chance that Skin Transfer will be completly disabled on Race Day due to heavy problems with the Skin Transfer and the new build. Please pay attention and send in your skin!

Ok no problem, I understood you, infact I asked if maybe you won't be so rude as it seems. I saw you were answering to many polemical people

Just wondering, does it matter what the .dds file is called? Apart from the Alt as I do not have an underscore(_) in mine
