As in 2017 the event will sport a double feature with GT3 racing on the saturday and the Suzuka 6hrs WEC endurance on sunday.[/b] [b]The Low Lands Suzuka Double [/b][b]Digital is a perfect opportunity for all slotracers on the Northern European continent to try [/b][b]Oxigen racing in an Endurance format and has become the place for the digital regulars to test their cars in preparation for the Oxygen Le Mans 24hrs in Henley in Arden.[/b] [b]For new teams the organisation can provide technical assistance on how to chip cars during Friday's and Saturday's free practice sessions and has several Slot.it controllers available for rent, if teams require them.[/b] [size=6][b][color=#000080][i]Suzuka GT3 Support race[/i][/color][/b][/size] As in 2017 the DiSCA GT3 cars with teams of either two or three drivers, will kick off the event on Saturday from 09:00 till 14:00hrs. There will be one 60 min. Timed Practice session and two 60 min. Races with one mandatory pitstop of 1 minute duration. Besides the above mentioned, full [url=https://www.slotforum.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=148730]Disca GT3 [/url]rules will apply for the Suzuka support race.
[color=#000080][size=1][i]Start grid of the 2017 DiSCA GT3 support race, photo: Giovanni Rusello [/i][/size][/color] [size=6][color=#000080][i][b]Suzuka 6hrs WEC, Prologue to the Oxigen Le Mans 24hrs:[/b][/i][/color][/size] With the Suzuka 6hrs run under the same DiSCA WEC Sports Cars rules as used for the Oxigen LM 24hrs, it has proven itself as the perfect oppertunity for teams to test their cars. for "the Big one". With its banked corners and elevation changes the Suzuka track will bring different challenges for the teams in both set up and strategy. Although most teams adapted their cars for Suzuka it was interestring to see that the top 5 at Suzuka all did score good results in the Le Mans 24hrs. With free practice staring on Friday afternoon there will be plenty of time for teams to check out the track and set-up...or not...time flies when you're having fun. [b]Deviations from the DiSCA rulebook[/b] Due to its shorter duration and the inclusion of a (GT3) support race, there will be a few deviations from the DiSCA rulebook for the Suzuka 6hrs main event. Teams will be [b]hand out 1 motor [/b]at random[b] (Flat-6 or MX-16)[/b] These motors have been tested, matched and run in by Slot.it. Should in the unlikely occasion a motor be defective, teams will recieve a new one from the organisation. Teams will be [b]hand out 2 pairs of N18 and 2 pairs of F22 [/b]at random. Both compounds must be used during the main race. Hand outs will be available on Saturday after registering at the race control. Although teams are free to run their own motors and tyres (of the same type and or compound) during free practice we advise teams to mount their handouts before the end of free practice This way you'll be able to hit the ground running on Sunday morning. If you use this option you will have to place the parts in the Parc Ferme overnight (can also be the whole car, chassis or pod with motor rear axle and wheels)
