TORA German Touring Car Championship Season 2 Rules and Registration

RULES AND DRIVING ETIQUETTE
The German Touring Car Championship is a non-contact sport. But, some contact might be unexpected or unavoidable. If you feel that you have been wrecked on purpose, please report it to me (Bandit1097) or any other hired race steward for that weekend. If we hear any reports on lag from a driver, please report it to me and I will tell the driver who is causing the lag to fix his/her connection. The only possible penalty for lag is to start from the rear of the field to avoid any first lap collisions.

I expect each and every competitor that attends at any of the championship meetings to behave and communicate in a respectable manner to every single competitor and steward. If you feel a comment may be offensive, hurtful, etc., then please don't say it at all. On the track, if you feel you gained a spot unfairly, then please give the spot back UNLESS the other driver(s) have either spun or crashed.

You may get only one block per straightaway per vehicle. Any second movements that get reported to me will most likely result in a lost of positions, depending on the effect of the second block. It is not considered blocking if the driver is getting prepared to enter a corner, which will give that driver the right to move to the appropiate side of the track to take the corner, if there is any sufficient room.

If at any moment of the race a driver goes off the track, please be very watchful when you see that driver joining the track. Depending on where the driver went off depends on the action everyone has to do. If the driver is rejoining the track at the exit of the corner, then that driver has to wait until all drivers pass by. If the driver is rejoining the track on a straightaway, then all oncoming cars must give the rejoining driver room to enter the track in a safe manner. Failure to comply to this will result in lost positions, depending on the severity.

All racing and passing must be made on the race track. If a part of a track gives you a dirty lap, you are not allowed to use that part of the track. If you use the run-off of the track to gain positions, then you may either be asked to give all spots back or lose positions at the end of the race if you fail to do so. You may use all the run-off you want if you are avoiding a wreck.

When you decide to sign-up, remember that all teams may only consist of up to four drivers per team. The only way a car can be official is if you use your TORA number.


CHAMPIONSHIPS
The German Touring Car Championship will have the use of three championships. These championships are: Driver, Team, and Manufacturer.

DRIVER CHAMPIONSHIP: This championship is simple and straight forward. All drivers are by themselves when earning these points. Points are: 1st-16, 2nd-15, 3rd-14, 4th-13, 5th-12, 6th-11, 7th-10, 8th-9, 9th-8, 10th-7, 11th-6, 12th-5, 13th-4, 14th-3, 15th-2, 16th-1.

TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP: This championship is to determine the team with the most points at the end of the season. The highest finishing driver of that team will score points for their team. A team is allowed a maximum of four drivers and a minimum of one driver.

MANUFACTURER CHAMPIONSHIP: This championship will determine which manufacturer ran the best all season long. This will be fought between Audi and Mercedes-Benz. The highest finishing driver running that manufacturer will score points for that manufacturer.


RACE DAY

QUALIFYING
All qualifying will take place before the race starts.Qualifying will consist of one warm-up lap, four flying laps, and a cool down lap. On the cool down lap, please stop in the first turn so that I have time to record all times. Once I record all the times, you can either finish the race or return to the lobby. If you lag out or wreck during qualifying, I will not restart qualification. You will have to deal with the damage.

RACE
On race day, please be on 10-15 minutes before the start of the race so I can hand out invites for the race.

You are allowed to use any assists you wish. So, you can have everything at the easiest level or everything on the hardest level. The damage will be on limited.

The warm-up lap will be one lap so that everyone can get in their correct positions for the start of the race.

Once the race starts, I expect clean racing from everyone and hopefully a good race. A caution will be thrown when either someone crashes or two or more cars spin. Off-road excursions will not throw out the caution. When the caution is thrown, the leader will pick up the field at a slow speed and pace them around the track until all drivers have caught up. You are allowed to pit if you want to under the caution. If the caution is still out at the last turn with three laps to go, all cars will stop in the final corner and there will be a two lap shootout from there. There will be no more cautions once there are two laps to go. All restarts will be two-wide. Whoever is in first gets choice of left or right side. Odds have to be in the same line as the leader and evens will have to be in the same line as the second place driver.

There will be no mandatory pit stops, although the pits are open if you need to repair or car or if you feel it is safer to go down in case a wreck ensues.

At the completion of the race, I will record the finishing results and tally up the points. No bonus points will be rewarded. So, you could lead all the laps, but wreck on the last lap and not get any points for all of that leading.

Will there be another season, as this one had finished now right??

you may have already put it, and I've missed it, but what assists do you allow and what are the damage settings?

Season 3 will be either after TASCAR is finished or before the TASCAR races start (which means a changed time). If I plan on doing Season 3 after TASCAR starts, than I will run a summer league on the Forza forums for Saturday nights at 7:00 PM EST.

I allow all assists.

Ok, thanks for letting me. Know
