The main rules :

1) Clean racing MUST be followed (rules of clean racing here :
https://en.lfsmanual.net/wiki/Rules_of_Clean_Racing

2) No hacking or cheating!! (Born 2 Ban/lifetime ban).

3) You MUST move off the racing line when blue flagged where possible, carried out in a safe way which wouldn't affect the car trying to lap you. Only attempt to unlap yourself when you have a consistently large pace advantage to the car you're trying to unlap. (E.G 5+ seconds a lap.)

4) You MUST have to put at least TWO wheels at the pit lane entry or exit lines! (Failure will result in a strict penalty. Multiple offences may result in a race ban).

5) NO BUMP DRAFTING!! (Either in Race or Qualifying).

6) PLEASE respect other drivers on track and in chat. Insults are not tolerated.

7) This series may require the need of a SAFETY CAR and need clear communication to alert drivers, for which discord voice chat is MANDITORY when a safety car/medical car is present in that race. (If we don't see you in the voice chat 5 minutes before qualifying you will be kicked! Late joiners will be given a chance and asked to join.)
7.1) Discord Link : https://discord.gg/mnrXzq3
7.2) Please use the same name in-game as in discord

8) If you are in the discord voice chat, please keep chat to a minimum during qualifying and the race in courtesy of other drivers. You may be requested by a organizer to mute yourself or enable the "push to talk" feature to which you MUST comply.

9) As all single seaters go, NO CONTACT is allowed. Deliberate contact will result in disciplinary action.
10) Please keep the chat in game to a minimum! Binded sorry is acceptable. Incidents will only be reviewed after the race.

11) DO NOT overtake the safety car unless instructed to do so by the race organizer/director. If you are a lap down during the safety car period, please wait for instructions before attempting to unlap. If someone ahead crashes behind the safety car, you are allowed to pass them and they MUST join the back of the queue!

12) Pitting during a safety car is allowed but you must rejoin the queue in whatever position you come out of the pits.

13) If stated, you MUST pit at least ONCE during the race. However no pit work is required.

14) Please leave a gap to the car ahead during qualifying, so when going on hotlap to prevent traffic and slower cars getting in the way.

Safety Car procedure :

1) After some discussion our Safety Car system has been reworked. Safety cars will now only be called if someone has a flipped car or is stuck. You are not required to "SHIFT+S" in the race however please do so in the qualifying to prevent messing up other's lap times.

2)If the Safety Car come out , you must catch up to the queue safely and respect the distance between cars , you can however pit during the Safety Car period .
2.1) A pre-determined Safety Car speed will announced at the Race-Information for every race , that mean what the maximal speed of the Safety Car Driver will go at the straights.

3) If you blue flagged under Safety Car , wait for the instructor from the Race Director to unlap yourself .

4) If you cause the Safety Car on purpose or unintentionally and you get lapped by the leader , you chance to get unlap is reduce , it will depend on different factors ; such as "Race distance , Track length , the car used" moreover , if you get the instruction to unlap yourself , we are not gonna wait to get back to the queue "depend on the factors previous" .

5) As soon as the track is clear for racing , a message will pop-up "Safety Car in this lap" , that mean Safety Car will back to it initial place .
5.1) The Safety Car will accelerate away from the queue toward it initial place , when the Safety Car crossed the start of the pit lane line , "Safety Car in Pit-lane" message will appear .
5.2) The leader who can decide when to accelerate for the restart , but he doesn't slow down again except for natural slowing points , any unnecessary slow-down may lead to punishment .
5.3) Drivers are allowed to overtake after crossing the start/finish line , if anyone overtake before that , he may get punishment .
5.4) When the Safety Car is coming into the pits, the leading driver must control the pace of the pack but also leave gap to the safety car pulling into the pits. You can NOT overtake the safety car before it passes the red cones or red line coming into the pits.

B2R Special Summer Event: Car Football
Hi and welcome to a special event of car football brought to you by B2R!
The Event will be held at the "B2R Open Wheel Wednesday" server.


The dates are:
05/08/2020 at 18:30 GMT - Preseason match and adjustment changes before final match.
12/08/2020 at 18:30 GMT - Player briefing and team balancing (if needed).
12/08/2020 at 19:00 GMT - Kick off (each match lasting 30 mins with break at half time).

Rules - (may be adjusted before the final kick off)

- Cars available: FXR, XRR, FZR

- Teams are currently made up of 7 players but this may change.

- You must be in the "race day" voice channel during the event times, a mic is not required. https://discord.gg/sVXDs2Q

- Players must either use a plain blue or red skin depending on which side they are playing, or have a distinct team skin.

- As most football goes, the team to score the most goals in the time period wins.

- The ball will be placed in the centre of the pitch before kick off, every member from each team must start from their own box (The penalty area).

- There is no designated goal keeper, however only 1 player is allowed to goal keep at once (being in the inner box/"6 yard box" counts as goal keeping).

- If the ball goes off the pitch at the touchline (the long side) then it is a throw in for the opposing team.

-If the ball goes off at the goal line (shorter side) then it is either a corner kick or a goal kick depending on which team kicked the ball off.

- You can only go on your opponents side of the pitch if the ball is there, you cannot hang on your opponents side of the pitch.

- If your opponents score against you, the ball will be placed at the centre spot for your kick off. Only the person who is doing the kickoff may be in the centre circle at this point.

- Car reset will remain on during the match, if you damage your car or flip then you are allowed to reset. If you somehow fly out of the pitch you will be allowed to rejoin from pits.

- Intentionally ramming other players is not allowed. There will be some contact which is negligible but setting out with the intent to damage your opponents car or crash will get you red carded.

- Latency will play a major part in how the ball and your opponents react to contact. If your ping is too high or unstable we may unfortunately ask you to sit out to keep it fair.

- MVP will be handed to the player to help their team the best (might be polled).

- You will be allowed to come up with team names once final teams are decided.

- This event and any points given will NOT count towards the official Open Wheel Series.

To sign up to this event, please reply here and fill out the form below before 22:00 GMT 11/08/2020
