The micro-sectors can be defined in the championship configuration:

Here is the track map for the 8 micro-sectors:

Micro-sectors are available in the software in:

  • Main scoreboard
  • Best sector scoreboard
  • Car Scoreboard
  • Graphing
Live Excel Export
  • If Use Micro Sectors As Main Sectors is set to true:
    • Standard sectors S1 to S8 will correspond to your new main sectors so MS1 to MS8.
    • It is required to define the Number of Non-Track Sectors in the backstage option (e.g., 3). After defining this option, HH timing must be restarted for the change to take effect:
      • Then, NTS1 to NTS3 will correspond to the original S1 to S3.
  • If Use Micro Sectors As Main Sectors is not set or set to false:
    • Standard sectors remain named S1 to S3.
    • All non-track sectors, including slow zones, will appear as NTS entries (e.g., NTS1, NTS2, ...).

Suggested Race Settings​

Backstage Options​

Minimum Pit Stop Time

The minimum pit stop time will be confirmed in a Bulletin at the Event. This concerns the following setting : Enforced Pit Stop Time.

Track Map Item for Strategy​

Driving time

For Bathurst, the rules mentioned that driving time will be calculated excluding the pit lane unless the same driver stays in the car. This is different than most series.To take this into account, it is important to make sure that the backstage option: "Driving time continues in pits without driver change" is set to TRUE.

More on driving time and how to setup max driving time can be found here.

For this race, mainly the maximum time column would be used.

Example:

note

The race clock will start at the start of the formation lap.

Lap 1 will be the first lap after the green flag (after the formation lap).

Timing will starts at the completion of S1 in Lap 1. Nothing will be populated during the formation lap except the clock time.

Reset tlw after​

To allow automatic resetting of Track Limit Warnings every 6 hours, a new option must be introduced: "Reset TLW After". It needs to be defined like that:

Reset TLW After6/12/18

Suggested Project Settings​

Session Settings​

The Session Settings in the backstage options are some of the most critical to get correct for the race. An example of how the session settings may look for the Spa 24H race is shown below. Note in particular the Fixed Stint Length is set to 61 minutes as per GTWC Europe maximum stint length rules.

note

Backstage settings can now be exported, which is useful to share them with other teammates.

Fixed Stint Length Mode​

Our Race Finish Calculation uses Predicted or Fixed Stint Lenght depending on the selected option. Before it was done In the Strategy Overview and Projected Gap Graph. Now this needs to be done in the backstage options. For all GTWC races, the Fixed Stint Length option should be used. This means the maximum driving time will be used to determine the maximum stint length for each car individually.

Track Item​

We suggest making a new Track Item for each event which allows keeping some of the relevant strategy settings specific to each event. In the Strategy Parameters section, the only relevant setting when using the Fixed Stint Length mode are the Average Lap Time For a Stint table and the in/out Lap Ratio. The Average Lap Time allows controlling the average lap time used for the forward predictions. If nothing is specified for a given car then the Assumed Pace is used for the future stints. Regarding the In Lap Ratio and the Out Lap Ratio, our recommendation are:

Stop & Go Pit Loss isn't use with GTWC rules and the Pit Lane Stop & Go Time can be set to use the stationnary time in the Pit Stop Scoreboard ( Corrected For Pitlane Time).

If the Drive Time Plugin is used, the Maximum Driving Time inputs should be set as per the relevant regulations.

Track Map Highlighting​

To highlight cars of interest on the track map and set time lost ghost cars for pit stops, details are given in the Track Map Highlighting section.

Detailed information for options available to configure the Main Track map are given in the Track Maps section. Particularly at Spa, with so many cars on track, the Class Highlighting options may be of interest.

Possible Configuration​

One possible way to setup the track map highlighting to make it useful for both the normal (time-limited) stops and the short stops would be to use the settings below. It is not possible to setup the 4 pitstop options: Short and long refuelling time and with or without pitstop.

  • The "F" (Fuel Only) ghost will represent the position the car will come out on track during a Short Stop. This assumes the Short Stop will be fuel only.
  • The F&T (Fuel & Tyres) ghost will represent the position the car will come out on track during a normal refuelling time-limited (minimum refuelling time by regulations) stop.

Set in the backstage options Time lost for fuel and tyres pit stop to the time that will be lost (relative to a normal green flag lap) by doing a full-service pitstop (minimum refuelling time + tyre change).

Time lost for fuel only pit stop to the time that will be lost (relative to a normal green flag lap) by doing a short pitstop (maximum refuelling time).

With these settings, both pit ghosts can be used throughout the race for both stop types.

The values entered can be changed by the calculation. Numbers can be changed to have a ghost for other options (Long refuel without tyre change for example).

The custom ghost can also be used to display other offsets from the running car, more details are given here.

Technical PitStop​

It is possible to add values for the Technical Pitstop in the track item. It will set the value for Technical Pitstop to true in the main scoreboard if one pitstop matches these values.

Drive Time Plugin Settings​

If the Drive Time Plugin is used to monitor the driving time, it is important to ensure the settings which are used for both the Stint Summary and Pit Stopwatch are correct. The Drive Time Plugin has proved to be a useful tool however, we stress that users practice with it using previous replays before using it in a race situation to ensure it is well understood. In case of SC or FCY, the stint time will need to be updated manually.

Miscellaneous Information​

Overriding Driver Data​

It is possible there can be errors in the driver ID name coming over the timing feed. This can either be an error on the part of the timing provider or an issue with the driver ID switch in the car itself. When the calculation of driver time in a championship like GT World Challenge Europe is so critical this can pose a problem to affected teams.

A function has been added to the software to allow the driver name taken from the timing feed to be overridden inside the software to allow the driver time to be corrected. This feature was specifically added with the Drive Time Time and Strategy Plugin developed for HH Timing.

The driver in a given stint can be edited in the Strategy Overview by right-clicking on the stint in question. This will open a dialogue box with a drop-down to select the correct driver. Once this new driver has been selected the change will propagate throughout all parts of the software. It is worth noting that in some views the new driver name may not be recognized until the next full lap is completed.

Technical Stop Window​

There is a useful feature for visualizing the mandatory technical stop in the Strategy Overview by using the Annotations tool.

Driving Time with Drive-Throughs​

By the sporting regulations, the driving time for each driver is only accumulating while the car is on track, the time in pit lane does not count towards drive time. Each time a car enters the pit lane, the stint time is reset to zero. The exception to this is if a car enters the pit lane for a drive-through, in this case, the stint time is not reset and time spent traversing the pit lane, in this case, does count towards the driving time of that stint. There are three situations where this may occur:

  • Car completing a drive-through penalty
  • Car(s) traversing pit lane to avoid an accident on-track
  • In case of red flag if car are going into the pit during the race suspension

If this situation occurs, this needs to be accounted for by the person responsible for managing driving time. In this case, the Start and End times for each relevant stint should be referred to in the Car Scoreboard for the car of interest to manually determine the remaining stint time.

1000 Km of Suzuka​

Information in this section are a focus on being prepared for the 1000 Km of Suzuka event.

Details on using the Drive Time plugin created for HH Timing can be found in the Drive Time Plugin section. It is important to make sure that the latest version is downloaded and stored in the correct directory of the computer.

Timing provider​

Timing at Suzuka will be provided by TSL Timing.

Prior to event, it will be necessary to contact TSL to get an API Key and a Shared Secret Key from them. Those keys for this event are different than the one used in other IGTC or GTWC Asia races.

Session Settings​

The Session Settings in the backstage options are some of the most critical to get correct for the race. An example of how the session settings may look for the 1000 km of Suzuka race is shown below:

note

The Max Stint time can be extended to 70 minutes if the Safety Car is on track or a Full Course Yellow period is in operation at the end of that stint (EDS). In this situation, the "EDS" option can be ticked in the Drive Time Plugin:

This will not have any impact on the total driving time.

Fixed Stint Length Mode​

Our Race Finish Calculation uses Predicted or Fixed Stint Lenght depending on the selected option. Before it was done In the Strategy Overview and Projected Gap Graph. Now this needs to be done in the backstage options. For this race, the Fixed Stint Length option should be used. This means the maximum driving time will be used to determine the maximum stint length for each car individually.

The Average Lap Time allows controlling the average lap time used for the forward predictions. If nothing is specified for a given car then the Assumed Pace is used for the future stints.

If the Drive Time Plugin is used, the Maximum Driving Time input should be 195 minutes as per the 1000km of Suzuka sporting regulation :

note

The total maximum driving time can be extended to 200 minutes if the Safety Car is on track or a Full Course Yellow period is in operation at the end of any driver’s final stint only.

Track Map Highlighting​

To highlight cars of interest on the track map and set time lost ghost cars for pit stops, details are given in the Track Map Highlighting section.

  • Car completing a drive-through penalty
  • Car(s) traversing pit lane to avoid an accident on-track
  • In case of red flag if car are going into the pit during the race suspension

This is what the "Merge with previous stint" checkbox of the Stint Summary is for. When it is ticked, the current stint is merged with the previous one, "Stint Merged" is displayed and the stint time keeps running from the last real pit stop. The box must be unticked again at the next pit stop.

caution

This option only affects the Stint Summary of the Drive Time Plugin. The driving time shown in the Car Scoreboard and in the Driver Scoreboard will still be incorrect in these situations, as the stint is reset when the car crosses the pit entry line. This needs to be accounted for by the person responsible for managing driving time: the Start and End times for each relevant stint should be referred in the Car Scoreboard for the car of interest to manually determine the remaining stint time.

Indianapolis 8 Hours​

Details on using the Drive Time plugin created for HH Timing can be found in the Drive Time Plugin section. It is important to make sure that the latest version is downloaded and stored in the correct directory of the computer.

Detailed information for options available to configure the Main Track map are given in the Track Maps section.

Possible Configuration​

One possible way to setup the track map highlighting to make it useful for both the refuelling (time-limited) stops and the stops without refuelling would be to use the settings below.

  • The "F&T" (Fuel & Tyres) ghost will represent the position the car will come out on track during a normal refuelling time-limited (minimum refuelling time by regulations) stop.
  • The "T" (Tyres only) ghost will represent the position the car will come out on track during a stop without refuelling, which has no minimum duration.

Set in the backstage options Time lost for fuel and tyres pit stop to the time that will be lost (relative to a normal green flag lap) by doing a full-service pitstop (minimum refuelling time + tyre change).

Time lost for tyres only pit stop to the time that will be lost (relative to a normal green flag lap) by doing a stop without refuelling.

With these settings, both pit ghosts can be used throughout the race for both stop types.

The values entered can be changed by the calculation. Numbers can be changed to have a ghost for other options.
