Registration

General

- Incidents may be reported up to 24 hours after race start. Each series has an incident channel with a form that must be completed.
- Admins reserve the right to review race replays and issue penalties without an incident report.
- Admins have 48 hours after race start to post the results of any incidents.
- Points will be updated within 72 hours after race start, or sooner if there are no incidents to review.
League Format

Race Restart
