Need For Speed: Shift GTP Racing League - Season II

RULES (Updated for Season 2):
To keep things fair a few rules are necessary.
· All drivers must use Pro Handling mode. We know what to look for, and it is not difficult to spot when people are driving in Experienced or Normal difficulty mode and you will be ejected from the group for cheating.
· No Driving Assists: No traction, stability or steering assists. If you want to use ABS braking thats up to you.
· No cutting corners and chicanes. At least 2 tires should remain on the track at all times (unless of course you are in the process of wrecking your car in which case, have at it!). We cant obviously enforce this rule in most cases, but try to keep the car on the track.
· Use of Nitrous is OK: Unless forbidden for a particular race
· Restart Rules: In the event that a driver(s) gets disconnected from a race within the first three laps, the race will be restarted. After three laps the race must continue to its finish. A race may be restarted only twice for disconnects to keep League sessions a reasonable length.
· Bump Rule: Any driver bumped from the server after the half-way point of a race will receive points equal to the position he occupied when he was disconnected. Or- The driver may instead choose to re-run the race during the Sunday Make-up Race.
· Make-Up Races: Those who cant make the Saturday League races for whatever reason may arrange to run the race on Sunday with any others that missed the previous days event.
o Please mute your microphone during the League races, to prevent disconnects from excessive bandwidth usage.
o As a good alternative to a microphone, the Chat Room will allow players to communicate before & between races.
Shift League Racing Ettiquette
Rules Enforcement:
For future races (2/20/10) when it is brought to the attention of the League Organizer (me) that someone advanced their race position through contact, the errant driver will forfiet his final race position and be placed in a finishing position behind the person he contacted.
It is up to the driver who was run into to lodge a complaint against another driver. It is not my intention to look through the videos to find out who did what to whom. The complaint must be PM'ed to me and the errant driver by noon on Sunday.
All racing incidents are different. Some occur because of faults in the game like poor collision detection, car location mapping and internet lag, but these will affect us all impartially so the rule will be applied strictly.
Race Weekend Format
1. Race One: A Manufacturers Race: (Using a stock car to be determined each week)
2. Race Two: A Manufacturers Race or a Personal Car Race: (Type of car or Rating Limit will be determined each week)
3. Race Three: A Personal Car Race: Using a Personal Car within the rating limits. (Rating Limits to be determined each week)

Shift League Racing Ettiquette
- If you are forced off the track by contact with another car, you may hit Reset to get back into the race as quickly as possible.
- If you go off the track due to your own driving error, you must drive back onto the track.
- Drivers may not advance their racing position by means of contact.
- If you make contact with another car forcing them off the track, you must slow down and allow them to retake the position in front of you.
