The 'BurnoutCrew' Tracker:
Will automaticly list all registered teams and racers for this event.

The 'BurnoutCrew' Lapcounter
This Tool is relevant for the final results at the end of this race. Two Lapcounters are tracking your race. One counts your driven laps ingame and displays the quantity you have reached and your current position (the LfS positions may be incorrect if you think of disconnects and surely mutiple grids) directly on your screen. The second will be hosted on the DoP Eventpage for external views, so your teammates and other visitors could get a quick summary of this race event.

Disconnect / Re-joins
There're many reasons for disconnects and we don't whant to distroy a race of fun for you. So, reconnects will be allowed. Of course you're losing a lap in lap-counter. That's it.
After reconnect you have to act carefully with blue flags. Admins may punish you for ignoring a blue flag caused by a faster/leading team. Others may be ignored. Unfortunetly there is no way to prevent LfS programmaticly from showing the blue flags. So it's up to you, to fit the rules of racing...
The Appreciation
It is only a team competition. The total number of driven laps decides the final placements. This is determinded by the Lapcounter. If there are two, or more teams in the same lap after race end, the first finish decides for winning this event.
Penalties: The Admins could judge immediately about penalties; for example: crossing the pitlane, unfair actions, permanent ignoring blue flag and so on. The penalty scale could be ‘Drive through’ or ‘Stop and go’ und must fit in the next following three laps!

Exlusion

The BurnoutCrew organizes this Event. We will decide about necessary adjustments if needed. There will be no privileged participation.

How will you know that they are definetly 16?

Indeed, we are depend on the honesty of our participants.
We couldn't do more.

Why we think so?

6, 12, or 24h races are really endurance events in front of the PC. Many hours are not really appropriate for younger kids, we think.

May be, in general it is a discussion, but not yet / here. So it would not be more than our rule for this events.
Quote from Webflat :Many hours are not really appropriate for younger kids, we think.

Really? I've been winning races of that length since I was 14 (and my brother since he was 12). I think it should probably be up to the kid to decide whether the races are right for him

I have done 1 and 2 hour stints in IGTC when I was 12, so I think that rule is completely stupid.
Quote from racer hero : ... so I think that rule is completely stupid.

This 'rule' was minted for the 6h Westhill race (not for the short one upcomming this tuesday) and especially for 12 & 24h longruns. You have got another point of view? We respect that, but we do not judge your opion as somewhat.
Feel free to join to the server tonight:

DoP - Grid 1

Hope to see you again! We will do some changes for the next 12 hours racing, esp. the Track
Can we get some driver specific stats, or a list of each driver in each team. I was wondering if I was the only one to go in alone, and I forgot what it looked like back in the qualifying.

Also- I am wondering if there will be rules to having a minimum number of participants for each team in the 12-hour Kyoto event. I am hoping to be allowed to go at it alone as a mental and physical challenge. I know it is impossible to do this with the 24hr event but it should be quite doable for 12 hours Please and Thanks!

Here http://www.ganzgenau.com/index.php?site=stats you will find some stats of the 5h part of the race.

I think you proved very well the skill of driving an endurance race alone now. I see no problem to let you race the 12h as a one-man-team.

There are drivers who did this
Just have to remember Ky3r 24h... there was someone doin' the whole distance in a rb4 and I'm sure there more guys who did a day-race as well
Ok, well I didn't really mean to say impossible. It may be on my list of things to try if I enjoy the 12hr race. But I was simply meaning it's not in my focus right now...
