Racing Rules

CAUTIONS
  1. Are for multi-car incidents
  2. Are not for single car spin outs
Two tires must remain in contact with the track at all times.
  1. At Daytona and SSRX, the "apron" (area between the bottom yellow line and the grass/paved runoff) is NOT track and you may NOT run on it to make a pass.
  2. On road courses, curbing/rumble strips and most hard surfaces attached to white boundary lines are track; different considerations may be made at certain tracks.
  3. Concrete patches, "greencrete", or turf and other run off is not considered to be track.
  4. When exiting pit road, you may merge onto the racing line as soon as it is safe to do so. You must make certain that you will not impede any other cars while merging.
  5. Harsh penalties will be applied to those who cause an accident while exiting the pits.
  6. The same thing applies for drivers rejoining the track after spinning or otherwise leaving the racing surface.
  7. Lapped Drivers may not impede the progress of the lead lap cars. They may, however, choose to help a lead lap car by bump drafting, etc.
  8. Bump drafted is permitted on all tracks, provided it is safe to do so.
  9. If you cause an accident for any reason that causes another driver to spin out, you must wait for all affected drivers to rejoin the track, and allow them to overtake you before returning to race speed. Doing so proves it was unintentional, and will lessen any penalties applied to you.
  10. Slight bumping and rubbing is inevitable and permitted, but intentionally punting a driver out of the way ("bump-and-run") to overtake him, or worse, intentionally spinning him out, is strictly prohibited.
  11. Penalties will be applied for any and all punts, and there will be zero tolerance for dumping another driver. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/215172-how-nascar-can-prevent-dumps
  12. If you have any issue with another driver send me a PM

I just got home from football banquet I'm not mentally ready to do any practices very very emotional night. 1st time since losing Super Bowl I have been around my team. It's funny because when I seen the team I started tearing up yes I'm a BIG SOFTY.

Oh... then all the cars are taken then. Will there not be doubles or will there only be a 10 car field?
Are there any other #s in the 2011 cars that have not been used. Also come this Monday 730pm est show up we will be talking about that topic car with same #s because I want a 16 car field.

Are the older gen cars designed to drive the same as the newer ones? Don't want someone to be disadvantaged. I really don't see an issue with doubles.
 
I see a total of 10 2013 cars and I don't see any 2011 cars in the dealerships. Not sure where those are...
 
@Pichon617 After some testing/practice I see that I'm actually a terrible NASCAR driver so I am going to back out of the series before it gets started. It will be safer without me...lol That should free up the 14 car too. Thanks!
