SCORING RULES
1)
The
following points will be assigned at the first 10 drivers: 15-12-10-8-6-5-4-3-2-1. Two ore more drivers with
same time get each the points correspondent their position. Also drivers with higher time.
2) There will be 3 checkpoints for every race, exactly at 14:00:00 (GMT+1) of every Sunday (except when Sunday is the first day of race and except last Sunday of every month, day where all races finish). In correspondence of every checkpoint bonus points will be assigned in the following way:
1st CHECKPOINT
Leader:
1,0 bonus point
Second:
0,5 bonus point
2nd CHECKPOINT
Leader:
1,0 bonus point if he wasn't leading at 1st checkpoint
2,0 bonus point if he was leading at 1st checkpoint too (new time must be 3% lower than previous*)
Second:
0,5 bonus point (if he had sent yet previously a time, new time must be 3% lower than previous)
3rd CHECKPOINT
Leader:
1,0 bonus point if he wasn't leading at 2nd checkpoint
2,0 bonus point if he was leading at 2nd checkpoint too (new time must be 3% lower than previous)
3,0 bonus point if he was leading at 2nd and 1st checkpoint too (with times 3% lower than previous)
Second:
0,5 bonus point (if he had sent yet previously a time, new time must be 3% lower than previous)
In
correspondence of 3rd checkpoint, it will be assigned 1 bonus point for
current leader. If current leader will be the same of 2nd checkpoint it
will be assigned bonus point only if his time at 3rd checkpoint is at
least 3% lower than his time at 2nd checkpoint.
*
For example: A Driver is resulted first at 1st checkpoint with
1'10"85 and so he has got one bonus point. If he results first
again at 2nd checkpoint, he gets another bonus points only if he has
sent after 1st checkpoint a new replay lower than 1'08"72 (3% of
1'10"85 = 0'02"12), that is 1'08"70 or lower.
3) Team scoring will be calculated summing the points of the three best drivers on every team (individual bonus points will not be added).
RACES RULES
RH RACES
A RH Race permits to a driver to save the race every time he wants, retaking in a second moment the race from the point where he saved. In this way a driver can repeat how many times he wants a specific part of the race (curve, jump or others) until he thinks to has got his best. Click here to see how you can use Replay Handling.
1) Download current track from Download section, load it in any version of Stunts and select designated car to race on it.
2) After race, save the replay of the race and send it by email to race administrator with indication about driver’s name.* Also with driver’s country and team if it’s the first replay sent. Replays received after 14:00:00 (GMT+1) of last Sunday are not valid.
3)
Update of scoreboards will be weekly just after every checkpoint. This
means every driver won't know the results of the opponents before every
checkpoint. This vales for contest manager too, because he will check (with
RPLINFO) all replays just after every checkpoint.
4)
After every race, the replays about best times of
all drivers will be available in Download section.
