Drivers and Teams
- You may sign up as either an independent, or as a team. Teams can be made up of a maximum of three drivers. Two-driver teams are also permissible.
- Teams can sign up reserve drivers specific to their team to fill-in for drivers who may not be able to make it to a certain round. However, reserve drivers must have an active premium membership, and must be able to drive the car at a competitive pace. They must also submit a skin prior to skin pack submission deadline.
- Important: Reserve drivers can only score points for the Teams Championship if they are substituting for a fellow teammate. If they are required to drive due to an independent or a driver from another team being absent, then they will not score points for their team, however they are eligible to score Drivers Championship points.
Absences
- Absences are permitted provided you notify the league director within 24 hours of the commencement of the Practice session (19:00 AEDT), and it is a valid reason.
- Late notifications of absence will result in a 10 point deduction from your total points accumulation.
- Drivers who withdraw from the league with an inadequate reason, or miss a round without notifying the league director at all, will be removed from the league and banned from all RaceDepartment leagues for the following 12 months. This includes immediate removal from any RaceDepartment league(s) they may be participating in at the same time as the Virtual Stock Car Championship.
General Rules
- All drivers must be Premium Members, and must use their full real name on both the game server and on TeamSpeak.
- During Qualifying and the Race there will be no in-game text chat allowed under any circumstances until all active drivers have crossed the finish line. Those caught using the in-game text chat during these sessions will be given a 5 second time penalty added to their total race time.
- Only communications from the league director will be allowed when it pertains to critical issues (i.e. Server problems).
- During practice, in-game text chat is permitted, however please be respectful of others trying to concentrate.
- Drivers and managers must read all the information provided by the organisers provided through the forum. That includes General threads, race threads and private messages.
- Teamspeak presence is mandatory for all drivers.
