#THE CARS
Builds from the 2017 FM6 TORA TCC will be used. Changes may be made as needed for later rounds.

#THE TRACKS
I tried to pick the twistiest tracks possible, since FWD lends itself to close racing on tight circuits.
This will be a 3 race event format, with each race being equal to approximately 20 minutes, with the number of laps being determined by the median qualifying pace.
| # | Date | Track |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Feb 14 | Brands Hatch Indy |
| 2 | Feb 21 | Prague Short |
| 3 | Feb 28 | Long Beach |
| 4 | Mar 7 | Rio de Janeiro |
| 5 | Mar 14 | VIR TBD ^A |
| 6 | Mar 21 | Nurburgring Combined ^B |
^A The specific VIR circuit has not been determined yet.
^B The Nurburgring round will be 3 laps per race, and will take a bit longer to complete than the other rounds.
#THE RACING
Since it is touring cars... rubbin's racin'. Light contact will be permitted, but side-slamming, brake testing, and excessive front-rear contact are prohibited.
Basically think this: if Yvan Muller would do it, give it a whirl, but don't pull a Carl Edwards at Talladega type move.
Where possible, the 2nd race of each event will be wet. The specific severity of rain will be put to a vote after race 1.
All races will be run with "Fuel and Tires" damage.
Excessive contact will result in a drive-thru penalty to be taken in the last 5 minutes of the next race. This penalty will only be used if someone emulates a pub-lobby rammer.
No decision has been made on a teams championship.

Notice that the gap between points awarded per position decreases the farther down the grid you finish. Never give up during a race, you can make up a ton of points with just a few positions.
