New starters: a reminder of the rules

Turn 1 Racing Etiquette
To avoid turn 1 incidents, in turns 1 and 2 of the opening lap, stay on your side of the track, i.e. leave racing room for the cars around you. Don't close up the gap by cutting acorss to the apex on the other side of the track. All cars will come through safely this way without big pileups. The Helicorsa app is handy for knowing where cars are around you.

Pit Lane Penalty app
You need to run this cut penalising app in season races, which you can download from this thread: http://www.xgn.com.au/index.php?topic=758.0
and read about here: http://www.xgn.com.au/index.php?topic=673.0
It gives you 3 warnings for cutting the track and on the 4th cut, you will get 10 seconds added to your race time at the end of the race.

Redress
If you hit someone else in a race and unfairly gain a position, say if they've gone off the track, you are expected to redress and give that position back as soon as it's safe to do so. The best way is to pull off the racing line on the next straight and slow a little so the other guy can pass you safely. Communicate on Teamspeak so everyone knows what you're doing.
