Locked vinyl groups will not be allowed as all cars are going to be gifted to the winner of the paint competition and cannot be gifted if there is even 1 single locked vinyl on your car.
(You can send a duplicate car if you wish to keep your copy)

8. Reporting Of Race Incidents

All incidents must be reported directly after the race (not during the race) unless it requires a penalty. Race incidents will not be discussed during the race and all replays must be saved by the driver making the complaint because if there is a lag which caused the incident then it will not be visible by somebody else’s replay.

The replay/replays will be reviewed by the administrators and a decision will be made as to weather or not anyone is to blame and if a penalty should be given to any or both drivers.

If there is anything I have not discussed here that you would like to see or if you have any questions please comment below.
