REGISTRATION

For drivers new to Gavra Racing, the Gavra Racing Academy is the point of entry to our racing championships.

We try to keep the driving standards of our community high, so we have developed a system for drivers to show that they can compete, and more importantly, have the driving competence to maintain a good level of close, clean racing.

We know many drivers entering the Academy will already have a high level of car tuning and driving skill. It’s important to note that the Academy is less about learning the skill of driving fast, and more about learning, or proving you have the skill to drive safely and fairly with others. Along the way, you will get faster too, of course.

Step 1. Join Us On Discord

It’s recommended to download Discord on your PC, tablet or phone and join our Discord server GAVRA Racing (Click Here). Contact the admins for any question or problem.

Step 2.  Register to the Academy

Sign up for the Academy in the “Registration” section

• Day/Time Of The Races: Wednesdays*, 8pm Uk.
• Assists Available: Dynamic Racing Line (Only Corner) Traction Control (Full), ABS (On), Braking Assists (Low).
• Assists NOT Available: Pit Release (Off), DRS Assist (Off), Pit Assist (Off).

*NOTE: the online time trial and the evaluation races may run on different days if more than 20 drivers are registered.

To have more details about the online time trial and the evaluation races, visit the evaluation races section in the Academy page.

Once you registered send a friend request on PSN to GAVRANOVIC1991. When registrations close, you will be added to a discord group for your Academy intake. There will be several senior Gavra drivers resident to answer any questions and help when needed throughout the duration of the Academy.

Step 3. Online Time Trial 

Before to enter in the Academy Series you must take part in an online time trial, in a private lobby, hosted by one of the Gavra admins. You will be notified of the track to be used, and also of the day(s) and time of the trial event. The length of the time trial is 18 minutes where you’ll have a time to beat. Drivers who will beat it, will enter to the evaluation races. Admins will set a time to beat accessible for the most part of drivers, so for someone the time trial may be easy.

**NOTE** Sometimes the online time trial may not be required so it won’t be organized.

Step 4. Evaluation Races

The evaluation races are the last step before entering in the Academy. You will compete with other drivers who have been graded with you in the time trials. The races are designed to evaluate several aspects of your driving; your commitment, on (and off) track attitude, and general ability. These things are important for the enjoyment of yourself and others in any Gavra Racing series you compete in.

Step 5. Gavra Academy Series

The Gavra Academy Series is a program designed to prove your clean racing ability and commitment to a racing series. The series is typically 7 races, but depends upon scheduling requirements. You will have the chance to adapt your driving style, and test your ability to set up your car in different tracks. Drivers may occasionally get feedback from senior Gavra members on their driving style and attitude on and off-track. Race placings will be recorded on a series points table. Though important to individual drivers, race placings and series results do not count towards earning a Gavra license.

Drivers who show good driving habits may be promoted and invited to participate in currently active Gavra Racing Series.

Of greatest importance to the Gavra team are your commitment, and clean, fair driving. Throughout the duration of the Academy, the Gavra admin team will really focus on two important aspects of your on-track behaviour.

1. Commitment. The Academy program is a test of your ability to commit to a program of races over an extended period of time, no matter what the circumstances. Gavra Racing doesn’t want drivers who are selfish. Quitting races and unreliable event participation seriously affects the enjoyment of other drivers, and makes life difficult for organizers. Maximum participation means maximum fun and satisfaction for everyone involved.

2. Clean, fair-minded driving. Everyone knows contact is sometimes unavoidable in motor racing, but your ability to avoid unnecessary contact and drive for your enjoyment and the enjoyment of others is critical. Knowing the limitations of the track, the car and especially yourself are extremely important.

Drivers who are overly aggressive or blame and abuse others in the chat groups are also unlikely to be welcomed into Gavra Racing. We require drivers with mature attitudes to communication and respect for others, no matter what happens on or off the track.

Qualify starts at 8pm Uk.

Race Rules

You Should Not:

1) Push or block others.

2) Engage in any form of cheating.

3) Cut or swerve in front of other drivers.

4) Message or talk during qualifying and racing (ensure your microphone is turned off).

5) Race with or unduly delay drivers who are lapping you. Also, please let obviously faster drivers unlap themselves.

6) Use the reset button to get back on track quickly.

PLEASE NOTE: The race group chat IS NOT the place to accuse or complain about race incidents. Please, DO NOT engage in blame and accusations in the chat. This is important to maintain the good community feeling that Gavra Racing has developed over a long time. The ONLY place a race issue can be solved is in the Discord channel ‘#incident claims’.

Claim

To make a claim:

• In any channel on the Gavra Racing Discord server, type the command ‘!claim’.
• You will be automatically given the role of ‘@Making A Claim’ and the ‘#incident-claims’ channel will become available to you.
• Please delay posting to the ‘#incident-claims’ channel to allow some time for careful thought and consideration regarding your claim. Prepare your claim, but please wait a few hours, think about and review your claim before posting to the ‘#incident-claims’ channel.
• Post your claim with a link to the video evidence from your replay and/or the video stream. Please note that video evidence is required; no video means no claim.
• Please make sure you provide the exact time of the incident in the video(s).
• Claims must be made within 48 hours of race finish.
• After your claim is posted, the ‘@Making A Claim’ role will be removed, and you will no longer have access to the ‘#incident-claims’ channel.

Drivers License Penalties

At the beginning of the season, drivers have 0 points on their license. Drivers could have license points added as a result of protests or direct action from the Gavra Stewards team. License Points will remain with the driver for the remainder of the season.

License Level Penalties (LLPS)

LLPs added are variable and applied at the discretion of the incident review panel depending on the severity of the incident. Typically +1 Level for a minor incident, and +2 Levels for a more serious incident. The LLP scale is listed below:

LLP0 – No Penalty
LLP1 – 1 Place Penalty or 5 Seconds of Penalty, 1 license point
LLP2 – 3 Places Penalty or 10 Seconds of Penalty, 2 license points
LLP3 – 5 Places Penalty or 15 Seconds of Penalty, 3 license points
LLP4 – Qualifying Ban, 4 license points
LLP5 – Race Suspension, 5 license points 
LLP6 – Championship Disqualification

10 License Points = 2 Races Ban
15 License Points – Championship Disqualification

All Penalties do not carry over to next race.
Place penalties to be served at the end of the race.
NOTE. It’s up to the stewards discression as to how many penalty points are awarded for each incident e.g. a LLP1 may not be given 1 penalty point.

Academy Lobby Settings

Lobby Issues

In case there are problems with the lobby (glitches, lags, etc), a new lobby will be created, with the same settings. If a glitch occurs between qualify and race or during the formation lap, the new lobby will be created with a custom grid, if possible. In this case, the top 10 drivers must start the race with the tire compound they qualified. Drivers who will start with a tire compound different from the one with which they qualified, they will get a LLP2 penalty. In case it isn’t possible to make a custom grid, the whole qualify will be repeated and so the previous results cancelled. Instead if the race is started and there are lobby issues, the race can be called off under the following two conditions:

1. Race Called Off: No Result. If at any time BEFORE the first 5 laps have been completed by the first place driver and only 5 or fewer drivers are still connected, or a glitch occurs, the race will be called off with no result and rescheduled. If an event is abandoned, it will be rescheduled preferably to the same day in the next available week, or next suitable opportunity. The event will be run under the exact same race conditions (in-game date/time, weather etc).

2. Race Called Off: Race Result. If at any time AFTER the first 5 laps have been completed by the first placed driver, 5 drivers remain connected or a glitch occurs, the race will be called off and considered complete. Half points will be awarded to all the connected drivers according to their placing at the last lap completed by the leading driver.

   Please note, ‘driver connections’ means all drivers still connected to the session regardless of their on-track status.

Points System

In the championship will be used the F1 point system. Also, 1 point is awarded for the fastest lap if a driver finishes the race in the top 10.

In case 2 or more drivers (or teams) should finish the season on equal points, to determine the final standings we will take into account the factors below in this order:

• Most Wins
• Most Pole Positions
• Most Podiums
• Lowest Average LLPs
• Best Minor Placings
• Best Attendance
