CLEAN
DIRTY
Concrete on Trackside Right on the exit of the first lefthand turn after the tunnel exit. These pics are clean. If the lefthand tires are inside the rumbles without contact, that's considered dirty.
Steward's Comments:
WRP001 (Tim) is heavily involved in running our online events and loves race cars, especially fast ones. He's on vacation right now, without a PS3. I don't think he's going to be very happy that I picked this car while he is away.
The combo is fantastic. The track is wide, flowing, and probably the most commented/requested track to have turned into a real life venue. The car has loads of grip, but the power must be harnessed. Be careful and have fun. 👍
Viewing your T1 & T2 Lap Time Splits:
- You need to make sure you save the 'Save Best Lap Replay' (ghost replay), not the 'Save Replay'
- To view your best lap replay, go to 'My Home' and watch the replay from there using the 'Replay Theater' option.
- While Viewing Your Replay, Choose the "Live Timing Monitor" To View Your Sector Times
- To post your T1, and T2 Splits, simply post the sector times that are shown in the live timing monitor.
- The WRS Fetchbot has been updated and will now add your splits together

Standard Clean OLR Rules:
- At least two tires in contact with track at all times.
- In situations where contact with the track is not possible because tires are airborne (above the ground), then the run is only legal if at least two tires would have made contact with the track if the car were not airborne.
- If track contact cannot be 100% determined, then consider it dirty.
- Rumble/ripple strips are part of the track
- No contact with walls or objects, visible or invisible
- If you're not 100% sure that your lap is clean, then consider it dirty
- No hybrids
- No cheating of any kind,these are relaxed races and we are experienced racers, we know what times can be done,and we can read your mind.We will know.
- Nothing that goes against the spirit of the rules
- Save your best lap/ghost replay

I'll think about it. 
It was a fun rant though IIRC.
