Contestants

Contestants in ONE RACEHUB represent the individual entries in your racing series. Each contestant is typically a car entry with its own start number, class, and associated drivers.

Prerequisites

Required:

  • A series already created
  • A season set up within that series

Optional (but recommended):

  • A chassis defined (enables chassis assignment to setup sheets)

Creating a New Contestant

To add a new contestant:

  1. Navigate to Admin > Contestants
  2. Click Add new Contestant at the top right
  3. Fill in the required information:
    • Season: Select the season this contestant will participate in (make sure to search for the season identifyer and not the series name e.g. "2024" or "Season 11")
    • Start Number: Enter the racing number for this entry (e.g., "60")
    • Class: Optionally specify the vehicle class (e.g., "GT3", "LMP2")
  4. Click Save to create the contestant

Editing Contestant Details

After creating the basic contestant entry, you can add more detailed information:

  1. Find your contestant in the list
  2. Click the edit button (pencil icon)
  3. Add additional details:
    • Chassis: Assign a chassis if you have one defined
    • Drivers: Add the drivers associated with this entry
  4. Save your changes

Using Contestants in Events

Once contestants are created, they can be:

  • Added to specific events within your season or event
  • Used to organize data in runsheets
  • Referenced in setup sheets for car-specific configurations

The contestant system ensures that all data is properly organized by individual car entries, making it easy to track and compare performance across different entries in your series.

Example: Setting Up a GT3 Entry

Let's create a contestant for a GT3 championship:

  1. Go to Admin > Contestants
  2. Click Add new Contestant
  3. Type season: "2024" > Select "2024 (DTM)"
  4. Enter start number: "99"
  5. Enter class: "GT3"
  6. Save the contestant
  7. Edit the contestant to add:
    • Chassis: "Manufacturer GT3 #1"
    • Drivers: "Driver A" and "Driver B"

This contestant entry can now be used throughout your 2024 season events.

Benefits of Proper Contestant Setup

  • Data Organization: All runsheet and setup data is automatically organized by contestant
  • Performance Tracking: Easy comparison between different car entries
  • Driver Management: Clear association between drivers and their assigned vehicles
  • Reporting: Generate reports specific to individual contestants or classes

With contestants properly configured, your runsheets and setup sheets will automatically separate data by car entry, making analysis and reporting much more organized and effective.
