RULES

RULE CHANGES

The Coach Dave 1000 Series will use newly introduced regulations. These new regulations will see smaller punishments for minor transgressions, allow drivers to race against each other a bit harder within the rules, but the revised licence points system will see repeat offending teams/drivers be punished in a much more severe manner than ever before.

For the full regulations, please click here

PIT STOPS AND STINTS

There are no mandatory pit stops, however a stint timer of 65 minutes will be in place. If a driver does not make a pit stop before the end of the stint limit, then the game will issue a penalty.

Maximum driving time is 170 minutes.

POINTS SYSTEM

Points will be awarded to the Top 22 of each race. The amount of points scored in each position can be seen here.

ABSENT TEAM MATE

This is a driver swap series where each team is required to have 3 drivers at each race. However, in the event that a driver is unavailable, there are 3 options available to the team:

  1. Replace the unavailable driver with somebody else;
  2. Withdraw the car from the round using the withdraw function (explained further down this page);
  3. Race without the unavailable driver however any in-game penalties will not be removed.

CUSTOM LIVERIES

Custom liveries made outside of the game are permitted in this series but please bear in mind that they are not officially supported by the game’s developers.

Pro split will be live streamed on YouTube and custom liveries can be shared to the stream broadcaster in a dedicated channel on discord.

If your team wishes to run with a custom livery, the livery must follow the requirements detailed in Article 3 of the Terms & Conditions.

The logos can be found in the assets folder available in the discord channel “Custom Livery Assets”.

Any politically charged or potentially offensive material on a custom livery will see the team banned from the series.

To avoid the significant lag that custom liveries are known to cause we request that teams do not run the liveries of other teams. The files are shared for use of the broadcaster only.

WITHDRAW AND RESERVES

If a team is unavailable to attend a round in the championship, then use the withdraw function. This is found by clicking on the “Races” tab, and then “Admin” on the round you need to withdraw from. There you will find the withdraw button. Withdrawing from a round means you are withdrawn from both races held that round. It is not possible to only withdraw from one of the two races held at each round.

Every team is permitted 5 withdrawals. However, missing a round without prior withdrawal will see the team disqualified and removed from the series.

The event is finished.
