Yep. The ST race is 30 laps vs 25 and yes there is a mandatory pit as specified in the initial race post.
The qualifying for GT/GS will be held to a STRICT STANDARD. Any racer who has not qualified with a room host or series official by 12:00 Sunday the 10th will start from the back of the field for the respective class entered.

Are there specific officials? Just remember u saying that 3 officials will be looking at the cars before the race is why I ask.
And we have a 7 lap qual session at Le Mans?

The specific officals are TyrannicCymbals, XMan4299, KikRox268 (source, series officials list)
you do not have to worry about anything just follow the rules, i.e. do not go over the power limit and do not adjust your cars upgrades between qualifying, race day and do not adjust cars upgrades when no PI adjustment been given. (obviously your allowed to tweak your tune between races and qualifying and race day)
and from what pred has said on the 1st page yes it is seven laps.

I'm glad its not 50 laps at Maple either, I wasn't going to race if it was 50 laps. I always flip on Maple so this should be interesting. I think a ST race on Le Mans would have been awesome though.

Why is Le Mans 7 laps to qualify...i thought it was 4 or 5 for the pass few season. I think 7 laps qualify is too long for Le Mans

Ohhh darn thats such a good idea! To bad we are full.
As for 50 laps of lemans, i say yes! But id suggest not having a ST race that week and starting the GT/GS race at the ST time so that we arnt racing even later into the night
