Donny Racing Summer Series 2013
This year we will be holding a summer series @ DTCC at many rivers requests. This will be run in addition to the normal club meetings we currently run, which means that we will be racing 3 times in every 4 week period, eg, DTCC, Donny Racing, DTCC miss Friday etc....
This event has only PROVISIONALLY be setup at your request! You asked for more racing so for this to happen, we need your help and support!
This will be a pre booked event, for this to happen we need to cover costs (hall hire, tape, paper, numbers etc) which means we need a minimum of 30 DRIVERS per round! If we don’t get 30 drivers paid in advance, we don’t have a summer series. The cost per round will be as normal, £5 to be paid in advance, once we has 30 drivers, we have a meeting. Drivers turning up on the day will be charged £7.50. Any money raised over the “costs” will be put into this event for trophies or prizes at the end.
If we don’t get enough drivers, your money will be returned to you. If the summer series starts and numbers drop off, or if we don’t get the minimum 30 drivers paid in advance, the series finishes there......drivers paid in advance will have their money returned.
This event will be run and hosted by yours truly with the help of Scott Wilson, I’ll be doing race control so won’t have time to race so I’m just doing it for you guys, so we need your support.
Rules
Normal club rules still apply, please respect these...(slick tyres, 5mm ride height, no grey tape on the hall floor, 12v batteries in a leak proof container...etc)
NO motor limit, this doesn’t mean bang a 3.5t and see how fast it is (Mr Scholey).....you need to be able to control your car!
Start of the race, NO cars to go round the track....if a car passes the loop before the start of the race, I have to remove it, if I don’t the system will not count your laps, this is for your benefit as the system will be on automatic and I won’t be monitoring the computer all the time.....it also allows for track repairs. To compensate for this the track will be open for practise. Once the track is laid with everyone’s help, I will open the track for practice.
Best 3 of 4 rounds to count.
Points system
The summer series will have its own points table. Standard final result points will stand eg. 100 points for 1st in A final 99 for 2nd ...etc....90 points 1st in B final 89 2nd. To make it a little more competitive, drivers will earn up to 10 points for their qualifying positions eg. 10 points for pole in each final, 9 for 2nd on the grid etc....this is for every final. In addition up to 10 points will be awarded for the top 3 most consistent drivers of the finals, the closest gap between your fastest lap and your average lap. 10 points for first, 5 for second and 3 for third. This is available for anyone in any final eg. If the fastest driver in the A final does 25 laps in 5 mins and their average lap is 12.90 seconds and best lap 12.08 then the different will be 0.82 seconds. A driver in the D final may only do 13 laps with a average of 23.85 seconds but their quickest lap of 23.15 seconds with a difference of 0.70 seconds. This means the most consistent driver will be the D finalist and will be rewarded with 10 points. To qualify, you must complete the full 5 mins.
Just because you’ve come first in the A final, doesn’t mean that you’ll be top of the leader board. Hopefully I’ve explained that easily.
The dates are as follows:
7th June – payment required 31st May latest
21st June – payment required 7th June latest
5th July – payment required 21st June latest
19th July June – payment required 5th July latest
Remember we need 30 drivers paid in advance before each meeting can take place.
This event has been setup for you
Oh and enjoy yourself and have fun! ;D
Any questions?
