Please Note: We are aware as are most racers that the game as well as the consoles do glitch from time to time. We are not responsible for finishes or outcomes based on a glitch but we will do our best to make the best decision possible when these situations present themselves
1.Damage is ON. Unless otherwise stated with prior notice.
2.Yellow Flags will be ON at all races except for Road Courses where we will run competition yellows. See Below for procedure.
2b. Before getting into a race, wether pit stops are required or not, you should learn how to enter pit lane. During a warm-up or practice session, make sure to familiarize yourself with its location. Things to pay attention to are: Wether or not there is a blend lane, the speed limit as well as your stretegy for getting slowed down to that speed limit(35 - Short Tracks, 45 - Speedways, 55 - Super Speedways). These are all very important to saving time during your pit stops. Lastly, make sure you don't upset someone's race when attempting to enter. If someone is folling closely on your in-lap, it may be smarter to allow that driver to pass so you can enter safely and also to avoid cautions. If the track is crowded, do it as safely as you can. Perfecting your pit-stops can gain or cost you precious spots on the track. Don't wait till last minute to work on your entrance. Make sure you're the one gaining postions because your practiced.
3.Black Flags will be ON and will also be aggressive but fairly called by league officials on track. Do not argue black flag calls in race please. Take them up with league officials after the race if you have a problem. If ignored, drivers are subject to penalties and or suspension.
4.Wear is always on normal unless otherwise discussed.
5.Speed compensation will not be turned on unless otherwise discussed.
6.Race Length will be around 50-55% for Cup and 85-100% for Trucks. The "B" Room will now be 35-45% as long as there are 5 or more drivers. This is subject to change according to late season turnout.
7.Race day schedule is as follows. There will be a practice session at 7:30pm Eastern Time. Not Mandatory but recommended!
Qualifying will begin promptly at 8:30pm Eastern in which the Top 14 drivers will make the "Feature" Room racing for the top 14 points positions and drivers with qualifying positions 15-XX will race in the "B" room for finishing postions 15-XX with a 35-45% race as long as there are 5 drivers.There will no longer be a transfer spot into the feature race!
The Feature race will lineup according to the initial qualifying session just like we always have and race will begin at 9pm Eastern sharp.
The "B" room will re-qualifying right before they run the race but will also start at 9pm sharp.
8.Race lobbies for your race will be open a minimum of 15 minutes prior to the agreed start time but will fluctuate frequently depending on race procedure.
9.If a racer is dropped BEFORE the green flag we will make reasonable attempts to restart the race.
10.Drivers dropped from the race AFTER the green flag will be treated as a blown engine and will receive points according to their finish position.
11.If the server fails a host will make reasonable attempts to restart the race with the nearest of laps remaining. If it looks to be a problem with the host, we will have the next available driver/admin host the next room. If it turns out to be an EA problem, we will postpone the race to the next possible date.
12.If a racer lags out during pre-race we will make a maximum of 3 attempts to start the race with a full field.
13.We are aware of the rule when a driver drops of other drivers being a lap down. We will score drivers in logical order regardless of laps down. Please keep track of your position in the event of an EA glitch. Also, please do not worry on the track about situations that may or may not fix themselves. If a problem occurs, we will take all steps necessary to fix it as fairly as possible.
14.Races will not be restarted for a late entry. We allow for tardiness as long as a race has not yet started, but will not restart a race once it has begun.
15.If a race is cut short of 75% the remaining laps will be run in a separate room.
16.Drivers will be removed from the league after three no shows without making race administrators aware. Its is Your responsibility to advise league officials if you cannot make the race. Those who plan on running a part time schedule must also advise officials of their activity. Also, if this is something you don't plan on staying dedicated to or interested in, then please let us help find you a less serious league to join. We are here to have fun and not take things too serious; But that being said, turnout is important for that to take place and we would like to have an understanding of who will be around and who will not.
17.Drivers must also have a valid email address, instant message account or valid phone number to enter.
18.Drivers must keep their respective XBL Gamertags during the course of a season, unless circumstances that are out of control present themselves. Please advise league officials if you plan on changing your Gamertag.
19.Xbox Live Headsets are required during league races for proper on track communications among other drivers. If you are having problems with a headset and need some help, please contact an admin and we will do our best to point you in the right direction in order to fix the problem.
20.Custom cars are ALLOWED. However, we ask that if you choose a number that has a regular car already, that you would try to run it every now and then to lessen server stress.
21.The Cup Series champion will receive the only provisional given each year until the official prize structure is announced. He/She may use that provisional at any race throughout the season that he/she does not qualify for.Additional prizes on the way!
1.Positions 15-XX will be given the opportunity to race for points. By racing in a 35-45% race, the winner will recieve 15th place points and the remaining positions will get points for their corresponding finish.

4.When all of the drivers are lined up, we will begin our laps and STOP ON THE BACKSTRECH! Only the polesitter is allowed to finish his lap. (You may be penalized if you do otherwise.)
5. Please keep conversation to a minimum as we announce the lineup.
