LEAGUE RULES

---

CODE OF CONDUCT-

1. Race Clean! (If you are a dirty driver, you will stick out)
2. Good sportsmanship is a must. 
3. Race your car and focus on racing not officiating!
4. You must understand the simple rules of racing
5. New members must respect the league and the drivers who have been here.
6. If you are a young person and we let you in the league you are expected to race with maturity and respect. We will not put up with anyone acting like a child. 
7. Keep the mic open for admins and drivers that are racing (we will mute you or possibly boot you)!
8. Harassing league admins will be reason to boot you from the league!  (There are no refunds of your membership when this occurs) There are ways to approach issues without name calling and threats. 

Starting the Race and Restarts-

1. All races start and restart on the leader!
2. Leader may choose inside or outside on all restarts!
3. The pace truck must be completely off of the track! (This means behind the guardrail and off the track) 
4. You must keep a steady pace at pace car speed! 
5. Jack Rabbit starts and breaking before a start that causes the field damage will result in a black flag!
6. If 2nd place beats the leader to the line, he will be given a black unless it is determined the leader fired and let off the gas. This is a judgement call by the race director!

In Race Rules- Each series may have individual rule changes.

1. Qualifying will be 2 laps!
2. 12x incident limit 
3. No bickering over the mic! Quick emotion is understandable but carrying on too much may lead to you being removed from the race!
4. We will use the asphalt lucky dog rule. No wave arounds!
5. All Feature incident points will be deducted off of your points total
6. If you are involved in a single car or small multi car crash that does not receive a caution you will be expected to get your car going asap and clear the track.
7. If you cause a caution on purpose, you will be given a 1 lap black flag and possibly removed from the race.
8. If you receive a black flag or EOL from the race director, you can challenge it but once the challenge is confirmed you must go to the back of the pack or be disqualified. (Be a grown up about it and race on)
9. If you exit the pits and wreck someone you will be disqualified immediately and face possible multi race suspension!
10. Black flags will not be cleared (If you challenge the black the admin will watch the replay and make a decision, it will have to be crystal clear that you should not have gotten it, otherwise the black will stick).
11.  Your ping must be under 200 to start a race!
12.  If you are disqualified from multiple races during a short time span, you may be removed from the league!
13.  It will be up to the race control to go single file or not after the 3rd caution!
14. We are broadcasted on many networks. Do not embarrass the league. We will not let one driver give us a bad reputation.
15. Wall riding will be given a warning and then will be a black flag. DQ possible.
16. If you wreck someone intentionally without disregard for the rest of the competitors and yourself. You will be parked for 2 weeks. (We do not want to see guys losing control of their emotions and going after guys without regard to the fact that there are many racers not involved in your skirmish and they shouldn't get their night ruined by something like this.)
17. If we catch you staying in the gas after a caution has been thrown, we may black flag or even disqualify you. Get off the gas!
18. After race contact will be cause for a DQ and a possible loss of all points for the night. We race with incident points on, and they are a deduction in points. If you destroy someone after the line and they get disqualified for too many incident points it will cost them positions as well as points. It is an accident if it happens from here forward.
19.  Accidentally wrecking someone will be an EOL.  The 2nd offense will be a 1 lap black for racing incident. 2nd offense may get you a DQ if it's a dumb move that ruins a driver's race.
20. If you have 3 incidents that cause a caution in one race that is your fault it will be auto DQ and a 1-week MOD suspension.       
21. If the Leader is taken out by an unsportsmanlike move or retaliation that the admins rule unfair the leader will be given the spot back and we will restart Delaware style on the next restart!   
22. Once 4 laps down you will be Disqualified. This is a self DQ. If you enter the track 4 laps or more down, you will be suspended for a full week! If you do this a 2nd time you will be removed from the league!
23. Mirrors On/Off is up to the sponsor.
24. If you cause a caution that is not a racing move. Especially late in the events you will be suspended for 1 event of our choice. If it happens again, you will be suspended for 3 events of our choice. If it happens a 3rd time you will lose your league membership.  POSSIBLE INFRACTIONS include. Causing a caution coming out of the pits, causing caution quitting instead of pulling off of the track the correct way, spinning yourself out for no reason, dukes of hazarding yourself through a wall and not quitting the right way.  If your stupid caution benefits your teammate or someone with the same decals your teammate will also be parked. NO MORE STUPID GAMES WITH THE CAUTIONS. Race right!

We love to race also and always want to be just a driver when we are racing! So, for us to enjoy what we do since we don't race other leagues is to do this!

1. Before every race Heats/Mains one of the admins will be deemed the race director and will be called out to the room. The race director cannot be in car and has to be in tower ready to make replay decisions. We have many admins that are very trusted guys that make solid decisions. If there are not any non-driving admins in a race the series director of that series will be forced to park his car and be the Race Control for the good of the league! 

2. All race control calls can be challenged in a mature way after the race and if we messed up, we would do all we can to make it right!

3. All admins will admin without favoritism and will make the calls to the best of their judgment!

4. When situations go crazy and needs after race judgement on possible penalties, suspensions and expulsions from the league this is how it will go down from now on. Protest to an admin to get results.

John will contact 3 trusted league members that participated in the event. They will not be known unless they choose to do so and will not know of each other. John will discuss their views of the situation and severity the penalty should be or if there should be a penalty at all. 

Penalties will start off light but will get worse with more problems. We do not want to penalize, suspend or remove anyone from the league. But will do all 3. 

For every arrogant driver that thinks he's unreplaceable is 4 drivers willing to replace him that weren't racing because of him. We see this time and time again in this league. So instead of being mad about the rules how about this. Race like you would if you were paying for it and race with respect for the league and our broadcast.

In the Heats and Lower Mains there are either no cautions or admin cautions. If you get wrecked get turned around and get going. If your car is too badly damaged to get off the track or out of the way clear out of the race immediately.

 IF YOU DO NOT CLEAR OUT AND YOU CAUSE AN INCIDENT WITH THE LEADERS COMING BACK AROUND YOU WILL BE SUBJECT TO SUSPENSION AND COULD POSSIBLY BE ROMOVED FROM THE LEAGUE.

Once 4 laps down you will be Disqualified. This is a self DQ. 

If you enter the track 4 laps or more down, you will be subject to disqualification from the next event! If you do this a 2nd time you will be removed from the league!

No cautions in heat races.

If you are at fault for wrecking someone you need to back out to the rear of the field before re firing. If you are at fault and do not back out the admins will give you the black flag. 

Iracing calls the flags in the Features. If we see a wreck that should be called a caution before everyone is going straight again, we will try and call a manual caution. If Iracing and the admins miss it there is no reason to act out. It is not personal! 

Any caution flags that are caused by you wrecking someone on purpose or not will result in an EOL. 

Damage is on in our league. Blatant stupid overreactions will be met with suspension and possible expulsion from the league. 

If you stay on the track damaged or lay back to wreck a leader are reason for suspension. Targeting or team targeting will cause this rule to be addressed.

Any Un sportsman like activities that make the league look bad will be a bad thing. 

We aren't here to look like clowns because of one or two drivers.

All starts are on the leader.

The leader may choose high or low line to start on all starts.

Starts are coming off of turn 4 and you may not pass or touch the pace car. 

Starting in turn 3 or passing or touching the pace car will result in a black flag.

Mandatory to have Discord as we interview the Top-3 from each series. 

We would like you and your teams to find a home in our discord during the races so that we can get the drivers in easy for interviews during the events on our broadcasts! Please change your name in the MOD discord to something we will recognize easy. Your name and car number would be awesome

If the leader gets blatantly taken out with no fault of his own, we will be giving the leader his spot back.

Blatantly could be a lapped car being ignorant, 2nd or 3rd place throwing a crazy slider and taking the leader out, overly rough driving etc. 

What could cause us not to call the penalty. Hard side by side racing, just a racing deal, blocking. if you see him coming and he runs you down do not block and expect this rule to be used. The admins are racers. This will be the admins call.

If your car is damaged to badly, we will not put you back up front.

If we put a leader back to the front the next restart will be a Delaware restart unless it's a single file restart. Delaware restart means that on the next restart the leader will start as the only front row car. 

If you cause a caution that is not a racing move. Especially late in the events you will be suspended for 1 event of our choice. If it happens again, you will be suspended for 3 events of our choice. If it happens a 3rd time you will lose your league membership. If you share the decals or team as the car benefiting from your stupidity, we will park you both!
