5. JUDGING

5.1 QUALIFICATION

5.1.1 Qualification runs are judged with reference to the 4 basic criteria:

• Line
• Angle
• Speed
• Impression/ Impact

5.1.2 Line-the perfect line, defined by the judges, which must be followed by the participant while drifting on the track (in most cases, the estimated line is identical to the fastest trajectory through the track). Overall score for the run will be substantially reduced for not following predefined “perfect” line.

Line is set by the inside and outside “clipping points”. Distance of the car from these points is reflected in the score for criteria -“Trajectory”

“Clipping point” – Key area on the track, in which the participant must steer his car, which must be in the state of extreme over steer, as close as possible to a given point, thus following correct , from the standpoint of judging, trajectory. “Clipping points” are divided in to inside and outside clipping points.

“Inside clipping point” – zone on the track, in which the participants score is determined by how close the cars front bumper goes by (while maintaining over steer condition) to a given point (marked with a special cone). “Inside clipping point” is placed on the inner side of the track (inner side of the corner or where the car should be facing with the front end), in most cases at the apex of the corner.

“Outside clipping point”- zone on the track, in which the participants score is determined by how close the cars rear bumper goes by (while maintaining over steer condition) to a given point (marked with a special cone). “Outside clipping point” is placed on the outer side of the track (outer side of the corner or where the car should be facing with the rear end), in most cases at the entrance or/and exit of the corner.

“Clipping zone”- zone on the track, in which the participants score is determined by how close and how long the cars rear bumper goes by (while maintaining over steer condition) the “clipping zone” “Clipping zone” can only be at the outside (outside clipping zone) of the track and should not be longer than 5 meters. ”Clipping zone” can be marked with special cones or evaluated visually by the judges.

Judges must explain in detail the trajectory they want to see from the drivers (the line that will give them maximum points for this criteria). Usually this line is optimal for the car to move in the state of drift and proper use of this line means minimal loss of speed on the judged parts of the track which further improves overall score for the run.
“Off track” situation occurs when the car goes with more then one wheel of the track ore hits the track marking cone (or clipping point marking cone) with the base (area between front and rear axels of the car) of the car. In the event of the “off track” situation judges will estimate 0 points for this criteria or for a full run. Judges must explain in detail the scenario when the car will be considered “off track”.

5.1.3 ANGLE-average slip angle (the angle between cars axial line and the line of its movement) which is maintained by the participant via full length of the track. Magnitude of this angle is especially important entering the first corner. The loss or extreme reduction of this angle is considered a big mistake and will negatively effect the score for this criteria. In case of complete straitening (when slip angle can not be noticed with naked eye from judges place) or of this angle becoming too big (the car stops moving forward and/or spins) the judges most likely will give 0 points for this criteria or for a full run.

5.1.4 SPEED – speed that participant develops throughout evaluated part of the track, is the third criteria. The basis for estimating cars speed is by a greater extent the input velocity (speed entering the first corner), but it is also important how the driver is able to maintain highest average speed while drifting. Extreme loss of speed (or at worst stopping the car) will most likely end up with 0 points for this criteria or a full run.

5.1.5 IMPRESSION – energy and effectiveness tat participant demonstrates during his run. It may be the large amount of smoke from the wheels, early initiation before entering the first corner or sharp transition from one side to another. Any other things that can be requested and explained by the judges.

5.1.6 Full throttle-passing a certain area specified by the judges at the maximum speed and throttle.

5.2 JUDGING PAIR RUNS

5.2.1 Judging pair battles is dun on the same basic criteria as a qualification runs. On calculating the points in more detail in paragraph 6.2.7.

5.2.2 Judges in there disposal have 10 points for a single pair run, which means- the sum of points , given to both rivals must not exceed 10 (for example if their performance was equal they get 5-5 point. If one of participants in the pair spins out, he gets 0 points and his rival gets 10 automatically, if both rivals spin- 0 points gets the one who spins thirst. Car running second in the pair heat is estimated by the ability to catch up and mirror the leading car. Points are assigned for for ability to mach speed, angle, change of direction, distance between cars, ability to initiate drift in parallel with leading car. Points are assigned based on the comparative advantages of two participants, when the basis for comparison is the leading car.

5.2.3 During the pair run on the evaluated part of the track can only be two participating cars, car “A” and car ”B”. During the thirst evaluated pass of the pair run car
“A” (participant ranked higher after quali9fication) is the leading car and car “B” is – the chasing. On the second pass , cars switch places. Throughout a full pair run a chasing car can not overtake the leading one, only in the case of emergency situation (the loss of trajectory by the leading car or in order to avoid collision)!!! In case of not enough pronounced difference between the participants, judges (and viewers) can inflict a full re-run (full re-run is a full “isolated” pair run when both drivers get to lead and to chase0 or (after 2 reruns) a run till one of participants makes some kind of mistake (sudden death).

5.2.4 Number of re-runs is mainly decided by the judges , but there should not be more than 3.

5.2.5 Cars are positioned at the starting line, by the track judges, side by side. After the start was given , both cars accelerate in the “Drag race” fashion up to the initiation point. At that point distance between cars should not be more than 3 car lengths (depending on the track specified by the judges). Chasing car must take position behind leading car before entering the thirst corner.

5.2.6 Winner of a pair run can advance to the next round (from Top16 to Top8 and cetera).

5.2.7 CALCULATING POINTS FOR THE PAIR RUNS

5.2.8 Score for the pair run depends from:

1. Angle
2. Distance
3. Ability to mirror the trajectory of the leading car
4. Sports behavior, politeness toward opponent during the run
5. Closing the distance when following end increasing when leading
6. Car potential ratio between rivals
7. Controlled finish
8. Judges decision!

1. Angle – see 3.1.3

2. Change of distance between the cars entering evaluated part of the track and at the finish. Score depends whether this distance increases, stays the same or decreases.

3. Ability to mirror the trajectory of the leading car– during the briefing before pair battles judges will explain the preferred driving line for “tsuiso” (pair battle), which does not necessarily must be the same as for the qualification If necessary , the line can and should be adapted for pair runs (by the judges). Leading (“A”) cars task is to follow this line, chasing (“B”) car must follow this line too, while keeping in mind transitions and priorities of the car in front, there for anticipating possible trajectory (and other) mistakes from car “A” is a must. Because of this car “b” needs more time and space on the track, for this reason certain adjustments to the line and angle of the chasing car are justified although the range and where (on which parts of the track) this kind of adjustments are allowed must be specified by the judges.

4. Sports behavior, politeness towards opponent during the run- example: the leading car slowing down more than necessary to tackle the corner (thus creating difficult situation for chasing car)… this kind of situations will be discussed during drivers briefing considering specific features of the given track.

5. Distance within evaluated part of the track. Judges not only consider distance between cars at the entry of the first corner and at the finish, but also points for a chasing driver are being added if he, at some point of the track, gets close to his rival.

6. Car potential ratio between rivals. Drivers with low powered cars are at a disadvantage when following more powerful cars (mainly due to smaller acceleration and ability to maintain big angle) therefore judges can give the privilege of up to 10% to a driver with a less capable car. This matter must be discussed at the briefing.

7. Controlled finish. The car must stay under drivers control at all times, controlled drift when the car has already crossed finish line is a must

8. Judges decision –is always above this Rules and Regulations and is also irreversible.

5.3 SIGNALS OF THE JUDGES AT THE TRACK

Each judge on the track is carrying a flag. Starter- green
Marshals on the track- yellow and red flags.
Green flag- the track is clear, driving at peak performance is allowed.
Yellow flag- danger on the track, slow down, no “drifting”
Red flag- stop racing, stop movement of the car.

5.4 FATAL EROR

5.4.1 Driver gets 0 point for making these mistakes:

• Spin out while drifting
• The car straightened and drove more than 20m without “drift”
• Critical loss of speed or a full stop
• The car went out of the track (see 3.1.2- off track situation)
