Cat and mouse/sudden death:
The lead car wins if the space between the cars increases considerably, while the following car wins if they overtake the lead car. If any car spins out or crashes, the other car wins the race. In the event of the following car keeping pace, the race is usually rerun with the positions swapped.[citation needed] Once again the new lead car must pull away from the pursuer significantly, or the follower must overtake, to win and prevent another run.
This style of battle is often chosen when the road isn't wide enough to allow passing, but if the car in front does indeed somehow get passed, the overtaken car automatically loses.
This is just a primer for what I'm planning. It's pretty much a chase and follow race series involving just two racers per race that will duke it out in a knock out championship ladder series.
The cars involved and all the details will be fleshed out soon enough with the start of this series starting sometime early next year.
The idea is to have a more open style series that won't need so much scheduling. People wil sign up, they'll be assigned to a pool of two separate groups and be matched to a random challenger within your group.
Right now I'm having fun imaging running rally cars on tracks like Eiger trail and such, treating them like point to point one lap races. It'll follow the basic rules stated in the beginning of this post.
Since there's only gonna be two guys racing we can all join in on the room and watch the action happen in real time. Should be pretty cool.
