Start Procedure

 

The starting procedure used for all races is as follows unless otherwise stated:

 

When the lights go green (or the final buzzer has gone and countdown timer completed) drivers will make there way at a speed of less then 20mph to their starting position, as listed below and line up 2-a-breast. You must not pass drivers

of your own grade. You must line up correctly without making contact with other cars, incidents will be dealt with the same way as if it were part of the race. Previous race winners during the meeting must start at the back of the grade.

 

Once drivers are in position the steward will ask if anyone is not ready. If nobody replies, 'Roll at 20' is called and the leader of the whites will roll at a steady 20mph for the rolling lap. Drivers at the front of each grade are to

drive at approx. 20mph but ensure they keep their 4 to 6 cars distance to the grade in front. Anytime after the leading white reaches the apex of turns 3 & 4 the steward will call 'GO GO GO' and the race will be on.

 

If for any reason the grid does not form properly after rolling, then a restart may be called. If there are persistent offenders that stop races being started they will be sent to the back of the grid or excluded.

 

Starting positions approximate - always follow instructions from meeting steward

 

Whites: At the start / finish line

Yellows: Exit of Turn 4

Blues: Exit of Turn 3

Red: Entry to Turn 3

 

On Track Behaviour

 

- Drivers must drive in the correct direction (clockwise) at all times.

- No use of the infield at any time, using the infield during a race will be classed as cutting.

- No driving round the track slowly or waiting for other drivers.

- Contact and Fencings are permitted but this must not fall into stupid driving by deliberately ruining somebody's race outside the rules.

- No following in or unsporstmanlike sideswiping is allowed

- No talking once the race has started, and until all drivers have crossed the finishing line.

- If your car is damaged you may leave it on track but off the racing line.

- Do not leave the server during a race as this will cause warp. However if your car is sat on the top of the fence please press escape.

- Care is to be taken when rejoining the racing line following a spin and persistent carelessness in this respect will be punished.

- Individual drivers with a bad connection may be banned from the rest of the meeting if it causes a problem for other drivers.

- Wall riding is NOT permitted. If you are hit into the wall, you must back off the throttle and gain full control. You must not use the wall to steer the car around the turn, nor use it to gain a race advantage. Anyone found to do so

may be docked places, excluded from the results, or have their meeting points removed.

-Jump starts will be penalised by docking, 2 places or 2places per car they jump.

 

Grades

 

Drivers are graded at intervals throughout the season, please make sure you know what grade you are. Novice drivers to rFactor have been graded as white, where a driver races in another UKDirt rFactor mod they start from one grade below

there highest grade i.e. Mike is red in F1s so drops to blue grade. If anyone believes they have been graded incorrectly please just say and we'll sort it out.

 

Skin Packs

 

Please ensure you have the latest Skin Packs that can be found on the UKDirt Website.
