Tuning: Open within the restrictions listed above.

You are allowed to use shared tunes, however they must be built to the correct spec or you will be disqualified.


#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.

2Feb 21Prague Short

^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.
