Starting Procedure
Pit Entry and Exit
All information contained in this stewards briefing is created with the purpose of ensuring we have stable events, so CANZ administrators appreciate that everyone follows this information along with adhering to the CANZ sporting regulations.
Qualifying Procedure:
For the Sportscar Championship Series (SCS) we will be splitting qualifying for GT and LMP vehicles into two groups. GT cars will qualifying during practice 2 and LMP vehicles will qualify during the Qualifying session. This is to ensure that LMP vehicles always start ahead of GT vehicles even in the event of slower lap times. During practice 2 no LMP vehicles are to take to the track (read: exit the pit lane, fixing the spectate button by "going to track" then going to "back to pits" while still in the pitlane is allowed). During qualifying no GT cars may take to the track (same as before). In the event a vehicle (or vehicles) enter the circuit when they are not supposed to penalties may be applied.
The session will be set to 30 minutes, but only 20 minutes of the session will be used, the remaining time will be for drivers to finish their current laps before skipping to the end of the session.
Always keep note of who has qualified ahead of you so you know who to start behind at the start of the race. It is your responsibility to keep note of this otherwise you may need to start from the back of the field.
Starting Procedure:
The first lap of the race will be consumed for the rolling start to allow GT runners to get into their positions (having previously noted who they are to start behind), the LMP field will lead the group at a safe speed (90-100kph) around the installation lap and will form into 2x2 out of the last corner for the race start and reduce speed to 60kph to group the field up. The pole position for this round will be on the right.
The pole position driver will control their respective field, and may make the decision to start the race at any point past the start of the pit wall along the right side of the circuit until the start line, at which point the race will start regardless.
Pit Entry and Exit:
In the event the pit lane is required pit entry must be communicated with surrounding drivers early. Avoid touching the grass between the track and the pit entry as grass is known to reduce grip.
On pit exit, communicate clearly that you are exiting and ensure that you stay to the right if other traffic is in the area.
Thanks guys, have a good race!
(Next one will be better because I'll prepare it sooner than race day!)
