    Participation in league competition implies a sound knowledge and understanding of all the rules listed here (subheadings 1 – 9) and the Official group rules. Dangerous driving, persistent unrealistic driving (driver aids that are not in the spirit of competition) or flagrant abuse of the rules can result in time penalties, disqualification, race bans and exclusion from the competition. Generally we prefer to warn drivers before taking serious action, however we do enforce them.
    Finally, we want you to have fun and drive well!
    Friendly competition is the only way to race…
