Pre
race driver meeting will cover series specific instructions.
Driver
Application / Registration
All racers who would like to be considered for league membership
must register.
Please register on both the forum
and
Member Database and indicate which series you would
like to race in.
Racing Rules and Procedures
It is the responsibility of all league members to understand
these rules.
Please contact an admin if you have questions.
Computer
/ Internet Connection
WPracing.com uses the best race servers on the internet.
All racers are expected to have a computer system that
is capable of running the sim software we are currently using.
If you are having issues with the computer sim software or internet
connection then please contact an admin and get these resolved
prior to race night. Do not show up on race night and expect
the race to be delayed. Admins are available on non race nights.
TeamSpeak
Voice Communication
All racers are expected to have teamspeak
up and running on race night.
Driving Etiquette
WPracing encourages and promotes “clean”
driving amongst all our drivers to ensure a good time for everyone
– after all, it is just a game. We don’t want to
enforce a long list of technical rules. We’re all here
to have fun! The motto is: “there is nothing to win or
lose but friendship”. Be fun to race against.
However, there will always be individuals that don’t share
our philosophy. If you feel the need to drive unprofessionally,
retaliate, wreck another driver, or bring unneeded drama to
our league, do yourself and all of us a big favor and go somewhere
else! We don’t want to remove anyone from our league,
but we will do so if necessary.
General
Courtesy
Don’t FORCE your way around another car that is patiently
trying to pass a slower car – allow them a lap or two
to make a clean pass.
Show up at race time and be prepared to race.
Aggressive driving such as dive-bombing corners or blocking
is not allowed and will result in useless incidents.
The bottom line is, BE FUN TO RACE WITH. That is why we are
here.
Blocking
Blocking is not allowed except during the last 10 laps. We all
know what blocking is. Don't do it. It will get the attention
of the race reviewer. The car behind you beating your bumper
off is faster, let them pass cleanly.
Double
file restart
If there are less than 10 laps remaining, lap cars are required
to pass through pit road as the “one lap to go”
command is given by the starter.
Cautions
& Penalties
Flags
are not cleared and caution laps are not shortened. Don't ask.
Pre race driver meeting will cover series specific instructions.
Pitting
Brake
early and practice your pitting during the warm-up or practice
period so you know how your brakes will react.
Faking a pit stop, is not allowed.
Pre race driver meeting will cover series specific instructions.
Re-Starts
No jumping starts. Don't do it. It will get the attention of
the race reviewer.
Tires are usually slick on re-starts and traction is reduced.
Many wrecks occur in Turn 1 as drivers fight for position. Wait
until after you have cleared Turn 2 to attempt a pass for position.
Green/White/Checker
There will be only one attempt for a Green/White/Checkered.
If another yellow occurs, all drivers will reposition themselves
as they were on the restart and the leader will bring the field
around at pace car speed until the race is officially over.
Provisional
Points
Provisional
points are available in all series. Any driver unable to make
a race will automatically receive a provisional.
Note
The driver meeting held prior to every series race is the most
up to date instructions for that race. Pay close attention.
If something is still unclear then ask an admin. Have fun -
And be fun to race with.
