Key Regulations

A brief overview of some of the key rules and regulations, with full Sporting and Technical Regulations for each race round is available as a download at the top of this page.

Technical Overview

 

The race cars' technical setting is according to each championship's technical regulations.

 

Race Format

 

There are eight rounds in the current season. For each round, there will be a qualifying session of 15 minutes followed by three SSMDG races of an equal distance of 55km.

 

The points system is 20-17-15-13-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 for the top 15 finishers.

​

Single bonus points are awarded for the fastest qualifier, the fastest lap in each race and for leading a lap during races.

​

For BoP Test Day, points are awarded to the top 8 drivers with the fastest average lap time after the three timed sessions in 8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1. For the race session, points are awarded to the top 8 finishers in 8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1.

​

Race Grids

​

  • The grid for race one is decided during the qualifying session.

  • The grid for race two is based on the finishing order of race one.

  • The race three grid is based on race two's finishing positions. However, there is also a reversed-grid element to the starting order. Numbers representing the cars that finished from sixth to 14th position in race two are entered into a computer, and the software draws one number at random. The corresponding car will start on the pole, with the cars that finished ahead of it reversed, i.e. if number six is chosen, the car that finished sixth in race two will start from the pole position ahead of the car that finished fifth, fourth, third etc. The remainder of the grid follows as per the finishing order of race two.

 

Success Ballast

Cars that are successful in the SSMDG Gran Turismo Championship must carry ballast (additional weight) in their cars.

​

Maximum success ballast will be increased to 50kg, thereafter reducing in 10kg increments down to fifth place as follows: 1st: 50kg, 2nd: 40kg, 3rd: 30kg, 4th: 20kg, 5th: 10kg.

​

  • Between events, the ballast is allocated according to championship positions and is carried in qualifying and race one.

  • For races two and three, the ballast is allocated according to the finishing positions in races one and two, respectively.

 

Note

These regulations may be amended by SSMDG during the season, with all teams and officials notified of any changes via official championship bulletins.

Driver Level

Bring Racing Closer

The race management of SSMDG utilised ASPAR (Average Score per Attended Race) to rate drivers into
Gold, Silver, Bronze and Green.

 

With the driver level, the race management will apply a Balance of Performance to each driver during the championship in order to bring closer racing.
