4. Race Start & Restarts

On all starts and restarts the race leader has the choice of high or low. The Green flag starts the Race.

There is NO jumping the start/restart, you must wait for the green flag.

There is NO attempting to pass high or low on the start of the race or any restart until after you cross the start/finish line.

This includes changing lanes also. Stay in your lane until you reach the start/finish line.

5. Incident Rules:

We have a 2 Incident and park it Rule PER NIGHT. As we are all adults here you are expected to do this on your own.

Incident definition: Any action by you or your internet connection that results in the Yellow flag coming out (whether it be a self spin, or contact with another car).

1st Incident in a race

If you are the cause of an Incident or think you are the cause you must do one of the following:
1) 4 Tire Stop 2nd time by
2) Speed down pit road 2nd time by
3) Restart the race in rear (last row)
The penalty must appear on the export.

2nd Incident in a race

You must park it for the night and will be on a 1 Incident and park until you complete an incident free race in that series.

If a driver on a 1 and park causes a 2nd incident in the same race, he will be parked for a minimum of at least the next two races in that series and one additional race for each incident after the 2nd incident.

If you fail to park after your 2nd incident your scoring will stop on that lap and you will be parked the next week. You will also be on a 1 Incident and park until you complete an incident free race in that series.

6. Cautions

No Racing Back

***With 15 or less laps to go, and the yellow comes out, you are allowed to race back to the yellow flag.***

When the caution comes out, HOLD YOUR LINE and RACE AT A STEADY SPEED back to the line. What this means is, don't let off the throttle all the way and don't try to pass the person in front of you.

Hold your position and wait to slow in turns 1 and 2, not the START/FINISH LINE.

The driver who caused the caution cannot take the Lucky Dog. After you leave the pits pass the field on the HIGH side of the track.

When you get the 1 to go, go all the way around the track and line up double file in the first open pacing line.

If we clear a black flag and it was legitimately yours, you will be you will be penalized.

If you disagree with a call in the incident report, you may protest to the series director by sending your own replay clip within 48 hrs of the report being posted in the forum.

*Do NOT retire from within your own pit stall while on the pit stop timer!
The unacceptable behavior of retiring from your own pit stall with the wheels/tires off the car therefore causing a caution verifiable by both the race replay and the export will result in an incident charged against your 2 and park it plus any additional sanctions incurred covered by other RTG Rules.
