General Rules and Regulations
ROOZ Racing Rules: http://raceonoz.com/forums/index.php?threads/racing-rules-regulations.70/

Good Racecraft Guide: http://raceonoz.com/forums/index.php?threads/the-good-racecraft-guide-rooz-racing-ettiquette.419/
PSN chat use during a qualifying or race session is not permitted. Abuse will be handled by moderators.

Events will be postponed and moved to the following week if there are less than 8 attendees.

Please avoid uneccesary movement during the formation lap. There is no excuse for contact. Try to remain in your starting position.

Passing under the Safety Car is not permitted. If you pass a car under SC and are not prompted to return the place, you must return the position when the race returns to green unless a pit stop occurs. Penalties will apply.

You are not permitted to enter the pits by overtaking other cars under a safety car or virtual safety car before the pit entry line. You must hold position until the pit entrance line. Exploiting this will result in a time penalty.

Drivers caught using the incorrect driver aids will receive a penalty of 20 seconds on the first offence, 40 seconds for the second offence, and then a DSQ for the third offence. Each offence carries a punishment of 3 penalty points.

If you receive a 5 second speeding penalty and do not serve it, the penalty will be applied post race.

In the interests of incidents and protests, it is STRONGLY reccomended that you record your gameplay using the PS4's share feature. Setting it to 60 mins is enough to cover the end of qualifying and a 50% race.

You are not to let the AI control the car for a large portion of the race. You must remain in control of your car at all times unless absolutely necessary. Time penalties may apply.

You must upload your pole lap to YouTube or other media. Failure to do so will result in a penalty point.

Rage Quitting will not be tolerated. If you want to quit, RETIRE via the pause menu before leaving the lobby. 3 penalty points will be applied if you do not retire properly.

Pre-Race Lobby Procedure
Drivers are to ready up at 8:20 (8:50 for 50% races) unless we are waiting for someone.

Each driver must receive at least one back up invitation before the ready process.

Should there be a major network issue during the qualifying session, the lobby should be restarted with a One Shot Qualifying session.
If it happens after the session is completed, the room will be reset with a custom grid in the order of the session results. Drivers are to be reminded to save their setups before this happens as you can only load setups in the one shot area and on the grid (parc ferme is disabled in a custom grid session).

After qualifying, drivers must wait 45 seconds before readying up, to ensure everyone has their setups set to their preferences.

Disconnection And Rejoin Policy
Drivers who disconnect are encouraged to rejoin the race as soon as possible, via a pre race lobby invite, joining through a party or a friend's profile. Driver's who disconnect after 75% race distance will keep their positions at the race's end, however they must have completed at least 75% of the total laps. (e.g In a 60 lap race, you must have completed 45 laps. Drivers who disconnect having not completed 75% of the total laps and not rejoined, they will be classed as a DNF.

Tyre Regulations
Those who qualify inside the Top 10 are forced to start on the tyres they set their fastest lap on. If it is on one of the harder 2 of the compounds it will count as one of the compulsory compounds for the race.

Time Penalties, Penalty Points and Stewards Group
Penalties handed down by the game cannot be reversed. These are 2, 3, 5 and 10 second time penalties respectively. You may receive a post race penalty for reckless driving and other misdamenours via a protest, or misuse of driver aids.

Racking up 12 penalty points will result in a race ban. In extreme instances where stupidity is repeated, a race ban may be applied regardless of PP. Reckless driving, multiple track limit infringements, chat use, and disregard for the rules may result in penalty points. A maximum of 3 points can be earned per offence depending on severity. Penalty points may or may not be applied in conjunction with time penalties.

The Stewards Group will handle all protests. If you wish to make a protest, file a PM to the members of the SG, preferably with youtube footage. More details here: http://raceonoz.com/forums/index.php?threads/stewards-group-official-thread.2593/

Classification
In order to be eligible for points in a full race distance, you must complete 90% of the race distance. As mentioned before, if you DSC, you must have completed at least 75% race distance in order to be a classified finisher. In the event of a catastrophic network error, or other, if the race is stopped before 50% and unable to be restarted, the event will be postponed and re-run the following week. If the race is stopped after 50% but before 75%, half points will be awarded. If the race is stopped after 75%, full points will be awarded.

Ooooo Formation Lap, wonder how much of a difference it will make warming the tyres

Formation laps are actually useful in this game, as it lets you configure the clutch bitepoints and tyre temps actually make a difference now

Throw me in a Sauber. Seems as good an option as any... (#66)

questionable tactics from ferrari already, ditching the title winning drivers for a couple of unknowns

Oh snap!
