How will this be organized:
I have been carefully planning on how to organize a tournament on this game. Thanks to French drifters Deck56c and TX3 Voodka. We came with a way to run an event without in game spectate. You could call this a test tournament. Here is a breakdown how this is going to work.
We have 3 judges and 1 or 2 lobby host. Host goes through the lobby, save the replay and share it. Judges will be look at the first lobby replay while the next lobby is being ran. This saves a little time during the comp. Estimated time could take 2 hours or a little over. This depends on OMT, Connections and if drifters get on at the right times.
Track: Silverstone National
Bracket: This will be a 16 car bracket.
Rules:
-A Class Max 700 - B Class 550 Min
-RWD Only

Checking Tire Compound:

Stock and Street Tire compound

Qualifying:
-In competition, drivers are given two judged laps to qualify.
-Each Driver will get 2 qualifying runs.Best run will count as their best score.
-Tiebreakers will be determined by the driver worse run,style Points,and speed.
-Each qualifying run is judged on four (3) criteria:Line, Angle, and Style.
Qualifying Scoring:
-Angle=25+10=35
-Line=25+10=35
-Style=30
-Total=100
Battles and Judging:
-Each driver will have a lead and follow run.
-Passing is allowed only if lead driver is off the suggested line.
-Collisions occur during tandem battle and in the event of contact, the driver at fault will lose advantage points. Incidental contact is allowed but not encouraged. Drivers are required to complete the entire course, even if the other driver crashes, hits, spins, stalls or is not able to complete the run. Drivers are always being judged as long as they are on course.
-No practice runs
Runs That count as a Zero:
-Qualifying:
-Spinning out
-Clear straightening or losing drift (Losing drift and reinitiating quickly is a major deduction, but not a zero. Judges will determine if an zero should happen)
-3 or more tires off course at the same time
The following items constitute an automatic zero or deduction in tandem:
-3 or more wheels off course at the same time= Zero
-Straightening= Deduction
-Hitting a cone or course marker= Deduction
-Double entry= Zero
-Abrupt stop= Zero
-Stalling= Zero
-Resulting contact causes an abrupt change in the vehicles drift and/or causes a spin= Zero
Protest:
-Protest will not be used as replays will be used to judge
Connection and Being Late:
-Connection to game- You battle will be pushed to the next lobby or make a new lobby with you and your opponent.
-Lag testing-You can lag test, but will no longer be allowed to do lag runs on the course.Take it somewhere off the section.
-Wheel and Controller issue- VFD will not allow a redo.Track staff or a judge will go into game chat to make sure everybody is ready.Wheel drifters check your equipment before battling, and —controller drifters check for enough battery.
-Being Late- If you feel that you are going to make battles, but show up late.Let one of the track staff or judges know.This way your battle can be pushed back.Note:Once all battles are completed,and if you haven’t appeared online.You will be skipped.
-Not at the line for qualifying-You will get 5 minutes to get to the line and go for your runs.This rule has been implemented so time time will not be wasted.
-Late for battles- You will be granted only 5 min to show up to the line.You will be DQ for not showing up.
-Talking during other people runs- I can just so be quiet, but that will not make people be quiet. Daiguren Tip- Make a private party with a spotter and you or it you can be the only one in. It will be quiet and you can concentrate on your runs.
ZTA/Terms and Agreement:
-All drivers must sign a terms and agreement form.Drivers will not be able to enter without signing one.
Ban and Suspends:
-1 offense=Suspend
-2 offense= Rest of the season
