General Rules
All drivers must be registered by posting in the driver registration thread requesting a number which will give you the ability to use the booking in tool. Numbers will be allocated on a first come first serve basis, however drivers who have already submitted a skin for the skin pack will have there number reserved.
To race in the league you must have rFactor installed with the latest version of the Banger mods and most recent Skinpacks and the tracks listed in the schedule. You must also have access to the Sim-Stox MIRC channel, which can be found on the forum. You must book in for each meeting using the booking-in tool found on the portal/homepage.
During a meeting your name in the server (game profile name) must be, your registered name, followed by your number (I.E Hamster97) - This is important and must not be changed through the season other wise you WILL be excluded from points scoring.
This league is designed to be fun and fair, you are expected to treat all other drivers with respect. Abusing or swearing at other drivers will not be tolerated and you will be banned.
Car Skins
These should be posted in the relevent section on the forum as a ZIP or RAR files stating, racing name, driver number, . If you have failed to submit a car within 4 weeks of your first race, you cannot race. No replica skins must be used (there may only be exceptions if you have a connection to the particular car or real life driver - check with admin prior to use)
Any new drivers will be required to use one of the Sim-Stox novice skins available until the next Skinpack is released.
On Track Behaviour
- NO Opposite Driving will be allowed at all, unless specified in the Meeting Info.
- No use of the infield at any time, using the infield during a race will be classed as cutting.
- Lapdown hits are permitted.
- No typing once the race has started, and until ALL drivers have crossed the finishing line.
- Do not leave the server during a race as this will cause warp. However if your car is sat on the top of the fence please press escape.
- Individual drivers with a bad connection may be banned from the rest of the meeting if it causes a problem for other drivers.
- Persistant wall riding is NOT permitted. You must not use the wall to steer the car around the turn, nor use it to gain a race advantage. Anyone found to do so may be excluded from the results.
- All races are random grids
Complaints
Any driver who is lodging a complaint must do so within 2 days stating the race and replay time of the event, and a brief description of the incident. This can be done by sending a PM to Banger Discipline. The Disciplinary team at their discretion may also review incidents that are not reported if there are exceptional circumstances.
The league will operate a penalty point system. When a driver reaches 6 points they will receive a 1 week ban. For every two points gained after this they will receive an additional 1 week ban (IE 8 points 2 week ban, 10 points 3 week ban). Offences will not carry a standard penalty, each incident will be judged individually. You will be informed of any penalties by PM and have 48 hours to appeal.
Any driver booking in and then not attending without prior notification will receive a Messer strike. Drivers receiving 3 Messer strikes will receive a 1 meeting ban, and a 1 meeting ban for each Messer strike after that.

If there are more than 24 cars booked in, then each driver will get three heats. The heats will be split into even numbers with the top 20 points scorers qualifying for the A final.
