rF2 S397 Multiclass @ Imola - Saturday 06 April 2019

Craig Dunkley · Mar 30, 2019

I am very pleased to bring back "Multiclass" racing, the poll was unanimously to bring back Multiclass racing, I sincerely hope that this news will make the majority of you happy, sadly you can never please everybody. But wait, do not be to disappointed, we will at times just be racing GTE, this will be at my discretion and track dependant. This week we are off to the beautiful country "Italy" to race on one of the most atmospheric and challenging circuits in Europe, of course it is "Imola" a much loved circuit by many.

ALL DRIVERS: PLEASE READ AND ENSURE THAT YOU ARE FULLY AWARE OF THE ADDITIONAL RULES THAT APPLY TO ALL MULTICLASS EVENTS

Multiclass
A minimum of six (6) drivers are required before the LMP class will become official. If we have less than six (6) drivers sign up for the LMP class, the class (LMP) will be removed from the event, a day prior to the event taking place. If there are any GTE slots still available, you will be placed in that class (GTE) Should you not want to drive GTE? then please make a post is this thread to that effect.

LMP drivers must ALWAYS drive with your lights on, you are allowed to also flash your lights, if you feel the situation ahead requires this. GTE drivers are not allowed to use your lights in anyway, this also includes "flashing" this rule, will help identify the class of car that may be behind you.

Please Note
The rule above will only be applicable if it does not become dark during the race. When it is dark ALL drivers must use their headlights, regardless of the class in which they are driving, but GTE drivers are still not permitted to flash their headlights.

Overtaking / Lapping
LMP drivers are predominantly responsible for ensuring that a pass is completed safely and successfully. The only requirement of GTE drivers is that they remain on the racing line when shown the blue flag and being overtaken; they should always behave predictably. Meanwhile, the LMP drivers are expected to safely find a way around GTE drivers without forcing them off their line. Headlights should only be flashed to indicate presence, and be used sparingly. And finally, LMP drivers should only initiate an overtake against a GTE car where appropriate and when it is safe to do so.

Drivers ..This is a personal recommendation and not a rule - LMP cars should only be driven by experienced drivers, due to the extra responsibilities involved.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Reserve Drivers
If you have not got a place in the race event before official practice starts, please be in TeamSpeak by 20:15 UTC. Not before 20:20 UTC I will start to invite the reserve (reserve's) drivers into the event, starting at the top of the reserve list and working down depending on available slots.

A message to all Drivers
If you run off track, you have to check and see that its clear before you re-enter the track. Do not just keep the gas pinned and pull back on track.
When entering the track from the pits stay off the racing line until you are up to speed and do not race on your out lap. Let other drivers by in qualifying.
On re-entering the track stay off the racing line until you are up to race speed and do not block any fast approaching car. Remember, you've made the mistake by going off so let them by cleanly.
Golden Rule

Be 100% sure it's not your fault and just carry on like nothing happened and take the risk of being banned for 30 days.
Play on the safe side and wait for the affected drivers, knowing 100% sure you will not get a ban.

Track limits

No more than 2 wheels over the white/yellow line without a complete lift of the gas please if it is safe to do so.
You will be penalized if you break our rules

Note: Please use your full real name in teamspeak. Not doing so may result in you being kicked from the server if an admin cannot identify you as a premium member.

Regarding the required DLC content, since you're listing all the alternatives, I believe you don't need the Reiza track pack or the full Reiza if you don't want to buy these, you should be able to join the event even if you buy the standalone Imola(?):
