Points Scoring.
There will be multiple championships to compete for in the DSRL Ginetta Junior Championship: Drivers, Teams and Privateers for each division. (If more than 16 drivers)
The points will be scored on the following basis:

1st - 35
2nd - 32
3rd - 30
4th - 28
5th - 26
6th - 25

Points will reduce by 1 point by all following positions.

Teams will be a maximum of 3 drivers. However only the top placed drivers will score towards the teams championship for there team
Example: If a team has 3 drivers finishing 1st, 2nd and 3rd in there lobby. The team will only score 1st place and 2nd place point towards there teas score, but each driver will score there own points in the drivers championship.

Team scoring will be based of the addition of the individual points of both top scoring drivers in a team.

There will be 6 dropped races from this championship for drivers, making your best 18 scores count towards the championship. So if you attend every race meeting, your worst 6 race scores will be dropped and your total is then the total of other 18 race scores. If you do not attend a meeting, then all three races will be a drop score until you miss more than 6 races, in which case you will receive a 0 score and it WILL count towards your championship total as you have already taken 6 dropped zero scores.

Tuning.
Tuning in this championship WILL BE PERMITTED. So get tuning!

Incidents & corner cutting
Report incidents and/or corner cutting or overly defensive swerving/blocking immediately after the race to the admins.

SAVE THE REPLAY! Or RECORD THE CLIP. We may not be able to see the incident from our perspective.

We are concerned that people during practice sessions are cutting corners too much. Regardless of what other series do, if you see someone outside the whitelines, tell them there and then. Anyone found doing this repeatedly/deliberately will be penalised, either in points or by exclusion from the ongoing championship.

DO NOT hesitate about reporting, it will be confidential and will make the racing here cleaner, therefore better and more fun! We may need you to make and upload a clip.

It's the responsibility of the person overtaking to ensure they make a clean pass! If you do hit someone (we appreciate accidents do happen!), make sure you give them the spot back.

If you feel that you were a victim of unsportsmanlike behaviour or intentionally taken of the track. Please present footage of the incident in question to the organisers within 24 hours of the end of the event. Any inquiries will be, at best, closed and penalties applied before the next event.

Connection issues.
Any driver who loses his connection to the lobby will start the session from the back of the grid.
In case of multiple DNF's or DNS's this is sorted by the host (faster driver starts at the back).

Please make sure your connection is fine and your ports are forwarded (even if your connection acts fine).
Try www.speedtest.net, your ping is the most important (lower=better, generally below 50ms).

Broadcasting
We request that there will be no broadcasting through Twitch. This is to aid the quality of lobby connections.
