Why We're Here - The Racin Grafix Racin League was created for guys to get together, race online and Have Some Fun. |
| 2. |
We ID - You Must be at least 18 years of age, own the NR2003 Sim from Papyrus and have a steering wheel to race. |
| 3. |
a. Driver Names - You must use your real name both in the forum and in the game. We prefer that you put your first and last name in the LAST NAME box in the game and also in RPM. That lets everyone see your full name in the F2 screen online.
b. Car Numbers - You should look at the Car Number List before picking a number. Each driver will run the same number in all series at RGRL.
c. Car Files - If you are signed up for any Series, you should have a carfile uploaded to the Racin Grafix website. |
| 4. |
Take a Week or Two Off - Only 8 races out of a 10 race schedule count toward your points. |
| 5. |
Keep Your Cool - Not all days are going to be good ones... so keep your attitude in check. |
| 6. |
Do Unto Others - Intentionally wrecking another driver before, during or after a race will not be tolerated at any time. You will be removed from the server on the first offense and issued a warning. Second offense you will be removed from the league. |
| 7. |
Don't Be a Hazard to Fellow Drivers - You should have at least driven on the track we are about to race on, if not then you should show up early for practice. |
| 8. |
Know Where You Are On The Track - Do not rely solely on your spotter!!! Use the F2 key to see where other drivers are in relation to you on the track. Respect should be given to all drivers that enter a race. |
| 9. |
Maintain a Good Connection - RGRL Members are asked to make sure they maintain a good DSL or Cable connection to the server when racing online. |
| 10. |
Check Your Quality - You can see a live quality meter while driving on the track by holding down the CTRL key and hitting the C key. |
| 11. |
Old School Rules - We run the NR2003 sim rules just as they came from Papyrus, no questions asked. |
| 12. |
a. Caution Flags - We do not race back to the flag in any series. We will stagger under caution, first car behind the pace car to the outside, next one to the inside etc...
b. Starts and Restarts - Lapped cars are asked to drive through the pits with 10 or less laps to go, so they may line up at the rear of the field and let the lead lap cars race for the win.
c. Lucky Dog - All series will have a lucky dog. When the caution flies, you maintain your speed and position until you get to the yellow flag and slow down in turn 1 to pick up the pace car. Once we reach 10 to go, we race back to the caution for position. No lucky dogs with 10 to go!
|
| 13. |
Jumping the Gun - There will be no passing on restarts until the exit of turn 2 unless the car in front of you has a problem with their car which causes them to be slow on a restart and they stay high to let you go by. Lapped cars will maintain their position on the low line and blend in with the lead lap cars as they can. With 10 laps to go you may attempt to safely pass going into turn 1 on a restart. |
| 14. |
Lapped Cars - Cars 1 or more laps down are encouraged to race for position to gain their lap back on restarts if they do so in a safe manner. You will be penalized for wrecking somone, so be sure to race them cleanly. |
| 15. |
Low Lining - If you block the low line down the straights you will be black flagged, sent to the back of the field and charged with an incident. Basically if you are more than a full car width off the wall when driving down the straight, that's low lining and will not be tolerated. Restrictor Plate Superspeedways are the exception to this rule. |
| 16. |
Blocking or Chopping - If a person gets a bumper inside you down the straight away, don't expect the car on the inside to lift going into a corner. It's the outside lane car's responsibility to give up the bottom groove if a car is inside. This occurs in real life and should be expected here. If a person gets position on you before getting into the corner and you cut down across their nose, you will be charged with the incident. In the same respect, if you are already entering the corner and overdrive your car to shove your nose under a guy, it's your fault and you will be charged with an incident. This rule is designed to improve the racing, not give bullies a free card to dive bomb a guy. |
| 17. |
2 Incident Rule - If you spin out on your own and it brings out the caution, you will be charged with an incident. Solo spins that do not bring out a caution are considered a freebie and do not count against you. If you get into someone and cause them to spin out, you will be charge with an incident. Either form of incident requires you to go to the back of the line on the next restart by speeding in the pits to get an End of Longest Line (EOLL) penalty. We expect drivers to claim their own cautions, and type the word 'Mine' in the chat window, or say your car number and 'mine' on teamspeak if an incident occurs.
2 Incidents in one night and you need to park it. Solo spins that bring out a caution count as an incident.
Final 10 Laps: If you cause an incident in the final 10 laps of an event, the incident will be reviewed after the race by admins and if you are found to be at fault you will be scored as the last car on the last lap you completed.
|
| 18. |
Intentional Wrecking - In the event a driver intentionally runs into another driver in malice, he will be ejected from the server. A second offense and you will be suspended immediately for the remainder of the season.
We classify an intentional wreck as you running into someone under green or caution without using your brakes to attempt to avoid them, or in retaliation after a recent caution with the same car. This is a judgement call, but if you blatantly run someone over, and it's pretty obvious to more than 1 admin, you will be removed no questions asked.
