League Fees

League fees for the first year are $50, and $50 every year after that. Once you join WRL the money is non-refundable.

BoardMembers :

The WRL Boardmembers serves this league. Its function is to act as a steering committee. It will advise, and carry out assigned duties. The Board is NOT a ruling body. The final authority on any issue is that of the CEO of WRL!


GAMES RULES:

 Know the rules that VHR (rFactor) enforces and what ARCA Remax 08' enforces.


 PENALTIES:

1st Offense: Verbal Warning

2nd Offense: 10-point deduction

3rd Offense: 20-point deduction

4th Offense: 30-point deduction

5th Offense: Sit out 1 race (no points for that event)

6th Offense: Sit out 3 races and the board looks over your actions. (no points are given while out)

 

NOTE - 20 point penalties for under caution contact resulting in an accident or lose of position on the track is a STAND ALONE penalty. It DOES NOT run concurrent with the penalty system.

 

Penalties do not carry from one series to the other. If you recieve penalties in CUP they do not carry over to CTS. If you recieve penatlies in CUP, they stay in CUP, if your recieve penatlies in CTS, they stay in CTS! Penalties do not have to be backed up by a specific rule it is up to admin of that series to make the call. They will be fair but FINAL. If you get a peantly, you deserved it, move on and learn from the mistake.

6th Offense : Probation is the most likely action but dismissal from the league is possible. You can be expelled from WRL at anytime with out going through the penalty process. The integrity of the race and the preservation of the league continuity is paramount.

If any driver is declared by administration of taking out a fellow competitor on purpose during a race in anger or anything else, the driver will be suspended for 1 race and 30 points deducted.  Upon a second violation of this rule, the driver will be removed from that series until deamed by the WRL Board that they can return or be dismissed from the league!  TAKING A DRIVER OUT ON PURPOSE WILL NOT BE TOLERATED IN WRL.

 

There will be no flaming on the track or off. Either in E-Mails or the WRL Forum. This will be grounds for immediate dismissal from WRL and you will have to a voted back in by every WRL member.


APPEALS!:

There is NO appeals process here in WRL!  Admin for that series is the FINAL authority! What ever is handed out, that is it.

 

BLOCKING:

Blocking is wrong!  Be respectful of the guys you are racing against.  You do not want to take another competitor out because you were blocking him or take yourself out.  It is better to finish 2nd than crashed out in 10th. Blocking is ok within 10 laps to go but do it respectfully and at your own risk. Don't get mad if another competitor takes you out because you were blocking him and he was faster. DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!

 

CHEATING:

Our server is configured with anti-cheat software to detect any driver from cheating.  If you are caught, you will be removed from the league permanently!

 

DRIVER'S MEETING:

You must show up on the race server before 8:00 pm est on race night or you can not qualify your car that night for that event, it does not matter how many hours you have on the server practicing for that race. 15 minutes prior to the race, a drivers meeting will be held on team-speak. It is a must that you have teamspeak in order to race here in WRL due to the fact that it is very important that you hear the driver's meeting and the other members and it also helps the league to get to know you as a person and not just the driver of your car on the computer. There also is an email sent out before ever race to when and where the next event is. It is your responsibility as a competitor to know when and where we are racing and to be prepared.

 

SCHEDULED PRACTICES:

We encourage each driver to participate in each practice session.  Please do not horseplay during practice. You are to participate in at least (1) practice session each week for at least (1) hour on the race server in order to race that weeks race. If you do not show for at least (1) hour, you will not be able to participate in that race for that series.

CTS / ARCA PRACTICE - MONDAY - TUESDAY

CUP PRACTICE - THURSDAY - FRIDAY

(SATURDAY NIGHT IS OPEN SERVER NIGHT)

NOTE : You can contact admin for Saturday Night open server for any series and any track

 

RACE HOST:

The race host of the WRL is the WRL.  WRL has it's own T1 server that is dedicated to only WRL and no other company and or league. 

 

SERVER ISSUES:

If the server dumps or experiences problems which interferes with the race prior to halfway, then the race will be restarted if feasible or postponed until the end of the season.  The series administration may also choose to move the race date to fit it in whenever possible.  If the server failure occurs after the halfway point, the race is official; there will be no restart or makeup race.  If you loose your connection, you have 3 attempts to rejoin the race and finish but many laps down.  After 3 attempts to join and you are unable to join the race, your night is done.  DO NOT TRY AGAIN!

Warping, dissappearing for long periods of time and or blinking, you must retire from the race! Remember, everyone's race is important.

 

RACE STARTS / RESTARTS:

When coming to the green, keep a good pace speed and stay within 1-2 car lengths behind the car in front of you. The pace car sets the pace! BE SMOOTH!  If you are damaged, when the green falls, move to the inside and let the faster cars through.  DO NOT JUMP THE RESTARTS!  Always let the faster car through.  It is the gentlemen's agreement just like in NASCAR!  It is better to finish the race than not to finish at all.  Be smart and respectful. There will be no restarts of a race unlessed deamed by admin to do so. Races/Qualify will start at 8:30 for CUP, CTS and ARCA on the dot. There will be no delays unless asked in enough time and admin allows it. Even then only 5 minutes will be given, if you are not there by then, you just miss that race.

 

PACING:

When coming to the green flag, you will keep 1-2 car length distance between you and the driver in front of you so there is no accidents.  Do not lag back and do no jump the starts, the GAME will penalize you. Under caution, stagger your car with the car in front of you, and keep at least 1-2 car length distance between you and the car in front of you.  The leader will always stagger to the right of the pace car/truck. ( if you hit someone undercaution and it leads to an accident of any sort, damaged or not, or that driver looses a position because of you hitting them, it is an automatic 20 point penalty no questions asked)

 

YELLOW FLAG RACING:

When the yellow comes out for an accident on the track or debris, DO NOT race back to the flag.  Hold your position.  The feild freezes.  Any car/truck that recklessly takes out another competitor under caution will be penalized points if determined by administration that is was avoidable. The LUCKY DOG is in effect in all series here in WRL.

LAPPED CAR RESPONSIBILITIES:

If you are a lap down to the leader, be careful and race accordingly.  Do not hold up the leaders when they approach you. If you are a lap down or more with 10 laps or less to go, be careful and do not hold leaders up. If you wreck a lead lap car battling for the lead positions, penalties will be handed out according to the rules and regualtions of this league.

 

 CHATTING DURING RACES / CAUTIONS:

Please keep your chatting down during races! This protects everyones race so they can hear their spotter and know what is going on around them. Use you text message board or whisper on Teamspeak or go to your respectable race channels. Type the letter "T" and write what you want and then hit enter, or go to your respected team channels on teamspeak.

 

PITTING PROCEDURES:

All drivers will give a warning that they are pitting at least twice.  You will execute your pit stop safely.  All drivers must exit the pit safely giving your signal of exiting early and at least twice.
