ANZCRL's 1st edition of the Bathurst (1000) 500 on Automobilista 2. AUS/NZ Combined Racing League has a rich history of running Australia's Great Race on Xbox Project CARS2 over the last 6 years, and are excited to bring this event to Automobilista 2 on PC.
The race will see drivers running solo or paired up together over the 2 sessions to see if they can etch their names into ANZCRL history books for the inaugural running of the mountain classic on AMS2. There will be 2 sessions of 40 laps, so you can use a co-driver during the race for one session, using the same race car number and livery for both nominated drivers in your sign up.

Race position at the end of each session will determine starting position for the next session. If you fall a lap down or more, you will need to wait on the grass area left of pit exit until the number of laps down from previous session is reached (NOTE no driver will have to wait more than 4 laps down in total) and then you can drive off carefully joining the race up mountain straight once the leader has passed you. If the leading pack is following close to one another it is the driver re-joining the race responsibility to join the track without effecting the leaders so its suggested to used your look behind button and join the race after the battle pack has passed.
There will be no safety cars called during race sessions.
NOTE Standing start for all race sessions, but for session 2 the standing start is only for the organisation of a formation lap into a single file restart from results of the previous race session. Think of this as a safety car intervention.
SESSION 2 RESTART PROCEDURE
Sessions 2 will start as a random standing start grid. At the green light all cars on the lead lap will head off for 1 formation lap to get into race restart order from previous race results.
Cars that are laps down will move off the grid and line up on the grass left of pit exit along mountain straight in order with the leading car being the car least laps down from race leader.
Once the lead cars are in single file formation, the leader has control of the race once exiting the chase and can restart the race anywhere from the chase to the starting line. NOTE: There is to be no overtaking until passing the start finish line, overlapping is allowed after the final corner only.
Lapped cars are to wait until the leaders have passed and put the car down the same amount of laps down from previous session. (example: cars that are only 1 lap down only have to wait on the pit exit grass area during the formation lap and can then restart on the actual race restart as soon as leaders have put them the lap down, but must wait until its safe to rejoin up mountain straight so this may mean waiting for the full field to pass. It is up to the car rejoining not to interfere with the restarting pack remembering tyres will be far from operating temperatures.)
