As Round 2 was not so good i had to make clear about some rules. Greg (88Reasons) helped me fix them a little bit, and here they are.


-Chatting under race conditions: This will not be tolerated AT ANY POINT BY ANY PARTICIPANT FOR ANY REASON. If you decide that something is important enough to say during a race, go ahead, but it will cost you 2 points in the event if it is not very inportant (for example a important question to the organisor or the judger. But you need to ASK if you can ask the question first. If we/i say no, you're not allowed.

-Abusive/Disrespectful chat: This will result in ONE warning. If that warning is ignored, you will be immediately removed from the server. We understand that mistakes will be made by the organizer from time to time. In this case, PLEASE bring it to our attention, but do it AFTER the race and in a respectful manner and everything will be solved in an organized fashion!

-Dangerous Driving/Dive Bombing: We saw a lot of this in Round2. This was partly due to the track at hand, but mostly (in my opinion) due to Gelin trying his best to give warnings instead of penalizing drivers. From now on, it will be very simple. If you are seen being OBVIOUSLY overly aggressive, you will give up one position, AS WELL AS any position(s) gained by your aggressive driving. This means if you dive-bomb a corner, and damage 3 cars, your finishing position will be no better than the LAST of the 3 cars that you damaged. It is in your best interest to avoid contact as much as possible. There will be NO exceptions to this for any driver under any scenario. The only time warnings will be given will be when it is hard to tell if overly-aggressive driving was the reason for contact!! If this happens 3 times, the 3rd warning will be treated just like an aggressive driving penalty. Warnings will not carry over to the next race.

-Using mods online Any type of mod car is strightly forbidden. A wing/lights or other interior is allowed but a replacement car is not allowed due to the lag effect. If the judgers see you start your first heat with a mod you will either be ordered to replace it or get excluded.

-Alcohol/Drugs Any type of drunkness is strightly forbidden. If you appears drunk or drug-affected you will be banned emediatly from the event, and the one after.



Questions and Answers will be answered via PM or E-Mail.


Cheers

Hi. Great news just came up. The whole 2010 season will be broadcasted live on Swedish Webb-Tv for LFS. The link for the TV will come up for those who cannot drive put perhaps can watch a bit.

[Gelin SWE]

Even more news!

It's also possible to have a commentator during the race. Is anybody volantair? The commentator cannot participate, i think, that might be wrong though. If you are a volantair for being a commentator for the webb-tv, write it here!

[Drift King CZ]

You could ask NDR!
But only if the commentator can speak English.. I mean, I would make it English overally, but it might be bad for the Swedish TV. What do you think?

Well IMO i think it should be in English. But 90% of those watching will be Swedes. So there is a small problem......

Well, the first round of the 2010 AirAttack Rallycross Cup is in the books! It was a very competitive field starting with approximately 12 cars in the heat races. The B-main saw the number one car of Nillson clinching the final A-Main position, as well as becoming a definite favorite to win the final race.

The starting grid for the A-Main set up what would be an extremely competitive race as the number 7 car of Blixt lined up in the first position with the number 13 of [AA]Juha and the number 9 of [GRT]Gelin on his outside to form the front row. Behind them was another 3-wide row with the number 12 of Berglund taking the inside in 4th, with the number 11 of G.TammERC and the B-Main winner rounding out the field.

Nillson dominated the green light, shoving his way to the front to challenge Blixt for the lead as Berglund stayed right on his bumper for 3rd. The three-car battle for the lead continued onto the asphalt, and back onto the dirt as Blixt and Nillson went side-by side through turns 5, 6, and 7. Nillson would briefly win that battle before making contact and sending his car plowing into the tires. This caused significant suspension damage for Nillson and effectively ended his day.

After recovering from early contact, Berglund impressively ran down Blixt to challenge for the lead on lap 3. The two cars briefly made contact on approach to turn one on the final lap. This gave Berglund a very slight advantage before he sent his car slamming hard into the inside wall. Blixt attempted to take advantage of Berglund's mistake, but was hit by faster
traffic behind him. Blixt would remain unchallenged for the rest of the race, taking the checkered flag and the first win of the 2010 AirAttack Rallycross Cup.

This was my first time attending an AA event, and my first time commentating any event. Thanks to Yann (AKA Commentator1) for commentating with me. This event was well run, action packed, and very competitive. I can definitely recommend this cup to anyone looking for close action and great race-marshalls. Very nice job, AA!
