RS.01 Rules and Regulations
Welcome to the 2018 TORA PC2 Spec Cup Series 1. This will be contested on Project CARS 2 on Xbox One and will consist of five rounds; each round will be formed of two sprint races of approx 25 mins each.
Before you decide to enter the series, please take the time to read the rules & regulations very carefully.
By registering for the series, you agree to the rules and regulations as written in this section.
TORA reserves the right to alter the rules & regulations as necessary, for the purpose of fairness and clarity in the competition.
1.0 GENERAL RACING RULES AND DRIVING ETIQUETTE
1.1 Motor racing, as defined by TORA, is a non contact sport. It is understandable that on occasion some contact may occur as a consequence of incidents caused by either party; for instance "lag". At TORA, lag is defined as sudden high internet latency or ping causing visual or physical inconsistencies between players.
1.2 Competitors with lag issues will not be penalized, but will be asked to improve their connection for future participation in TORA’s events. If the issue is persistently hindering other competitor’s experiences, or you cannot join lobbies (see rule 14.0), please perform a speed test on your connection via http://www.speedtest.net/. Once you have completed this, see the connection section via this link: http://forums.theonlineracingassociation.com/t1312-xbox-live-connectivity
1.3 TORA expects every competitor who partakes in our championships to behave in an appropriate and respectable manner. Insulting comments or behaviour towards fellow competitors, race stewards, lobby hosts and staff is unacceptable and will be dealt with severely by TORA Staff. Respectable on-track etiquette is expected of all competitors. This includes on-track battles, track limits, dirty driving etc.
1.4 The track limits are determined by the solid white lines either side of the track, or for lack thereof, the edge of the tarmac (or other racing surface, not including curbs). At all times, two wheels must remain on this part of the circuit, unless of an occurrence where it is near to impossible to keep two wheels on the track, such as avoiding a collision. Each time the track limits are not adhered to during a race meeting, a warning may be given. Each driver is allowed five warnings of all four wheels leaving the track via the inside of a corner, at any part of the circuit. If a sixth and subsequent "corner cutting" occurrence happens within a race meeting, then that driver will lose a position for each corner cut. Again, if a corner is cut to avoid a collision, this would not be given a warning.
1.5 All TORA members must read and follow the TORA Sporting Regulations. Note that specific rules defined in these Rules & Regulations will take precedence over similar rules outlined in the Sporting Regulations: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Z61lkYkBXCFr9-dGRIO0o6RJgdqIcjWOAFzdjPGJhbw/pub
