The following rules will be observed for Time Trials on May 13th:

- Qualifying runs will be initially scheduled in order of car number.

- A qualifying schedule will be published on Thursday May 10th showing the qualifying runs divided into 5-minute increments.

- If a driver cannot make their scheduled time, a swap can be negotiated with another driver and submitted to the admins before Time Trials begin on May 13th. The qualifying schedule will then be updated accordingly.

- Each car will be allowed a maximum of three qualifying attempts. HOWEVER, this is not a guarantee that there will be enough time in the session for one car to make three attempts.

- In the case of an accident, blown engine or wave-off, the driver in question will be charged one attempt, moved to the end of the line, and the next driver scheduled will attempt to qualify. In the case of a late arrival or no-show, the driver in question will be moved to the end of the line, but will not be charged one attempt.

- If a driver crashes or blows their engine in the pit lane, they have one more chance to leave the pits successfully. If a crash or blown engine occurs in the pit lane again, they will be charged one attempt and moved to the end of the line.

- A qualifying run will consist of one warm up lap, followed by four timed laps.

- The total time of the four timed laps will be each driver's qualifying time, which will then be converted to MPH for their qualifying speed.

- During the Time Trial session, drivers may proceed to the track only when called on by the admin(s).

- Absolutely NO chatting is allowed while a qualifying run is underway.

- Per Indy tradition, a driver who cannot be present for Time Trials can have a friend qualify their car for them -- the catch is that they must start the race in last place (assuming the car is not bumped during Time Trials). The friend qualifying the car cannot be already qualified for the race in another car.

- A driver may wave off their attempt before completing it if they feel it is too slow. One attempt will be charged to the car.

- Once a run has been completed, that is the car's qualifying time and speed, unless it is bumped from the 33 car grid.

- If a car is bumped out of the field, the driver of said car may get back into line and attempt to qualify again (provided they have additional attempts to use). The driver in question must ask to be put back in line by posting in the schedule thread.

- At 00h35 Paris time, if a driver is in the middle of a qualifying run, they will be allowed to complete the run.

- Only the fastest 33 cars will be allowed to start the 500 mile race on May 20th. In the event that less than 33 qualify, the remainder of the field will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis on Race Day. In the event that 33 qualify and there are drivers too slow to make the 33 car field, up to three alternates will be named (34th, 35th and 36th fastest) for Race Day, in the case that one or more of the qualified cars do not appear.

Behaviour on track

A few behaviour rules :

- as for all HSO events, it is required you use your real name both in-game and on the forum. Thank you.

- DO NOT enter the track under a red condition

Application and Interpretation of the Regulations

The admins alone are qualified to solve any problems raised by the application and the interpretation of the present regulations.

Car Allocation begins today at 20h00 CET. The format is first come first serve. However, the admins would like to make everyone aware of a few ground rules:

- Since the entry list will likely be bombarded with posts when it is unlocked, we are asking everyone to list three choices. This way, if people cross post asking for the same car, there is still a chance people will get a car they like. The admins will do our best to keep the entry list updated, but understand that this will likely be a challenge due to forum traffic.

- You can make car choices on behalf of one person, provided said person confirms the choices within 24 hours.

- The admins will refuse cars from Group 1 in the mod readme (Coyote 74, McLaren M16D, Eagle 74 #48) to drivers deemed to quick for them or of unknown performance. If you are in doubt about where you stand in this regard, please PM an admin and ask prior to 20h00 CET today.

One final note: We encourage everyone to be reasonable with their choices; this means don't select three group 1 cars and then act surprised later when you don't get any of the cars you wanted. Thank you for your attention and enthusiasm!
