1 -No Flaming + No Arguing If something happens in the race.

     We can talk about it after the race.

1-A - Respect , Please have respect for each other. No disrespectful comments.

         or Insults. We can still have fun , but please try not to cross that line.



1-B- We come here to race and have fun. This is a time for us to get away from

         the Job, The wife and kids, POLITICS , the media and so on.

         So please when you come in to race, please have fun and leave that stuff

         elsewhere. We dont want to hear it really. Race and have fun :)



2-No Intentional wrecking.

3-Aggressive Driving - Aggressive driving usually leads to accidents.

    No passing below the race track painted line. Unless your forced.

    This will be looked at by a league Admin, If you cause a incident due

     to aggressive driving a penalty of -10 points will be taken from you race.

4-Starts/Restarts - The only time we restart a race is if a driver connection fails or if    there is a major crash before everyone doesn't pass the start / finish line.

this decision will be made by the league admins.

On starts and restarts, Leader must stay at pace speed until the green flag drops.

5-NO PASSING BEFORE TURN 1 , ( only with 10 laps or less ) Or in the Modifieds.

BE PATIENT AND WARM TIRES IF

SOMEONE IS DAMAGED AND OFF THE PACE , THEN THE DAMAGED DRIVER

SHOULD USE HE'S AUTO CHAT TO TELL THE DRIVER BEHIND TO PASS HI .

OR IF A DRIVER CLEARLY FALLS ASLEEP ON THE START THEN PASS HIM

THAT'S HIS FAULT HE SHOULD BE READY TO GO WHEN THE GREEN DROPS .

Slow/Damage cars please be courteous and move over .(use auto chats )

This flag means move over ! If you are - lapped or getting lapped or a
faster lead lap car comes up on you. Move over !!! use your heads...

6-Two Yellow Spin Rule - If you Solo Spin 2 times or bring out
   2 yellows, you must park it ! We will ask once - whos yellow ?

   If no one claims the yellow or says anything or type your # or me .

   We will review and a -20 penalty may be enforced.

7-All lapped cars must pit with 10 laps or less to go when yellow flag is out .

8-No Racing Back , only with 10 laps or less to go -

   Gentlemen's agreement. When the caution comes out.

   Hold your position in line. DO Not Jam On Your Brakes !

   Just back out a little.Stay in line with a safe distance from the car in front.

8-A - When a yellow comes out and your in the pits, and the leaders have passed

         you while your in the pits. When you come out of the pits, fall in line where

         you come out. If you come out ahead of the leader. Go to tail end of the

         longest line.

9-Lucky Dog - We are using the Lucky dog rule. The next lapped car/truck behind

                            the leader will gain a lap back under caution.

   Driver will get a free pass to get back on the lead lap.

   Here is how it will work. When we are under yellow. A Hobo Admin will type

   which driver is the lucky dog. ( example = LD #21 )

   When your spotter says ( we are going green the next lap )

   That's when the dog driver will go low and pass everyone safely,

   and go around the track.

   This will put you at the back of the field. You are now on the lead lap.

   So stay on the high lead lap line.

   After we go green, a Hobo Admin will then give your lap back.

   Failure to follow this procedure will result in not getting his lap back at this time.

   or a wave around.

9 A -No Lucky dog or wave around with 10 laps or less,
     and we DO race back at this point.
10-We dont clear Black flags, only for Lucky dogs and wave around. Please don't ask.

11-No disconnects. Once you connect to the race server. You can not disconnect.

      if you have to disconnect because of an issue , let an admin know.

12-Provisionals. You can get pros. Just let one of the admins know before the

      race starts.

13- You can not race down pit road and pass the pace to get a lead

       lap points, if you do it you will loose 15 points for the race.

14- No Blocking, You can protect your lead with 10 Laps or less.
      But dont be reckless.

Please stagger yourself under yellow, this can prevent us from running into

each other under yellow. ( if car in front is hi , you stay low. Everyone in

line will do the same ) When spotter says we are going green then we can

fall back in line and give a little room.

The Rules are basic and we feel they are fair .

Please try to use them all the time.
Thank You , Hobo Racing .
