A message to all Drivers
If you run off track, you have to check and see that its clear before you re-enter the track. Do not just keep the gas pinned and pull back on track.
When entering the track from the pits stay off the racing line until you are up to speed and do not race on your out lap. Let other drivers by in qualifying.
On re-entering the track stay off the racing line until you are up to race speed and do not block any fast approaching car. Remember, you've made the mistake by going off so let them by cleanly.
Golden Rule

Be 100% sure it's not your fault and just carry on like nothing happened and take the risk of being banned for 30 days.
Play on the safe side and wait for the affected drivers, knowing 100% sure you will not get a ban.

Track limits

No more than 2 wheels over the white/yellow line without a complete lift of the gas please if it is safe to do so.
You will be penalized if you break our rules

Really starting to like these cars. Extremely fun to drive but not as easy as you may think to drive, no sliding, no skidding, no carbs, it eats your time. You've really got to be super smooth. Too much kerb and before you know it half a second is gone. Very disheartening when you're seeing it happened right in front of you, bloody shocking.

there has been times where I found myself screaming just after a little tinsy error, MOVE MOVE COME ON you slow piece of

. Not that that's going to help this old fart go any faster.

But I do like a enjoyable challenge so if you please @Buster add me to the list please.

I totally agree with you..I think the Mazda cup is the best learning car there is ..great to learn your trade in ..forces you to drive super smooth, hit the apex and coast rather than brake and if you don't, she will punish you like no other. I also know many drivers, that have already learnt there trade, to still really enjoy driving the Mazda, that is how good she is ...Welcome aboard m8

Loving these races. The car is great, the racing clean and the track selection ace, I'd never heard of Bathurst and loved that place. Would be great to see a championship table or something, if I can help at all I will.

Anyway, count me in.
