Race Format:
Qualifying will be your best single lap time from a 1 minute session and will seed drivers into a 6x4 minute segmented final. The overall positions in each class will be decided by the number of laps completed during the segmented finals, regardless of which final the laps were achieved in.
Technical inspection:
Scrutineering will take place prior to the start of qualifying; cars will remain in ‘parc ferme’ between qualifying and the race for the 24PR and 24ES classes. 24OG12 cars will be returned to competitors overnight on Saturday and will be scrutineered again on Sunday. Technical inspections may also be completed at random by the designated scrutineers at the direction
of race control. Any car failing the technical inspection will be removed from the track and the race will continue. The offending car will need to pass a technical inspection before it is allowed to be raced again.
Working on cars:
During a segmented race, it will not be permitted to work on cars during a lane change or a track call.
Marshalling:
Each driver will be required to marshal at least one full race immediately after they have finished their own race.
Marshals will be expected to be at their marshalling points in time for the next race to start. If the race is be held up due to a lack of marshals, the offending marshal or marshals shall have their
lap score reduced by 2 laps for the first offence and 5 laps for the second offence. The third offence will result in disqualification from the current class.
Track Calls:
Track calls can be made:
When a car is on the wrong lane (RIDER), when there is a track fault, when two or more cars are interlocked and the marshal cannot separate them and when a car deslots in an unmarshalable position (indicated by markers on the side of the track). Incorrect track calls will not be tolerated. The first offence will result in a recorded warning issued to the offending competitor, from race control. Each and every further offence will result in a 5 lap penalty applied to the current race. It is expected that the caller of 'track' will call 'clear' when the issue is resolved although Race Control may restore power at any time.
