Welcome to the Volkswagen Golf IV Cup! This is a spec series using the VW Golf IV RM with a small power boost.
The Car - Volkswagen Golf IV GTi Cup Car
Rules:
1. GTP's Online Racing Rules apply.
2. Cars must be run to the exact specs given.
3. Two tires must be on-track at all times. As these are longer races, minor off-track excursions are expected. Rejoin the field without disrupting other racers and no penalties will be given. Absolutely NO shortcuts.
4. Some contact due to lag and close racing is to be expected. It is the responsibility of the overtaking driver to ensure the pass is completed cleanly. If you hit another driver and cause them to leave the track, you should allow them to regain their position ahead of you.
5. If a driver is catching you on a straight, you may change lanes twice to defend your position. Excessive blocking will be penalized.
Reporting Incidents:
If there is an incident you feel should be investigated, send me (LancerEvo7) a Private Message on the forums with the offending driver's PSN and the lap the incident occured. You have 5 days after the completion of the race to report incidents.
