General rules

Although this is a private hosted series the sporting code of iRacing and FIRST is forming the basis for fair racing. Every driver commits oneself to take care of this rules.

Additional to that there are following general rules:

• Starting spot:
   There is no guaranteed starting spot. The first drivers who are entering the race will get the spots and drive.
• No repairs:
   There are no fast tows in the ranked races.
• Rolling race starts:
   All races are starting behind the pace car at any kind of track. The lead driver has the decision to get up to speed after the pace car

   peals off into the pits.
• Full course cautions:
   Yellows are always on (hopefully they will work sometime in the future on road courses).

• Restarts:
   Restarts are always in single file mode. The lead driver has the decision to get up to speed after the pace car peals off into the pits.
• Reckless driving:
   Every driver who is racing without enough care or car control gets at least one warning by the host.
   If the host feels it doesn't get better the driver will be removed from the race and can be penalized for future races too.
• Protests:
   In case of braking the rules every driver has to make a clear protest in the text chat during the race or within 5 minutes after race

   finished (race is finished when first car crosses the line).
• Drop weeks:
   Every driver gets two drop weeks. His two worst results out of the full schedule get stroked automatically.
   If he doesn't compete in enough races he doesn't get any stroked results. For example: on a 13 race schedule only 11 will be counted.

Track specific rules

Additional to the official sporting code there are different rules according to each track (for example pit entrance and exit rules). This rules are made for safer and more realistic behaviour on track. To see these rules have a look at the track list.
