(8) At all tracks in 2009 there will be qualifying. (9) Custom cars are allowed for certain races, yungdough617, Death_Planner, or KX250Frippa will messege you about these races. (10) No Wrecking People on Purpose, illegal blocking, or Wreckless Moves. Wreck are handled by the following. 1st Time: Verbal Warning 2nd Time: depending on the situation another Verbal Warning or 25 point penalty 3rd Time: depending on how KX250Frippa, Death_Planner or yungdough617 handled the 2nd time, you'll receive a 25 point penalty, or another 25 point penalty if u got one for the 2nd time(50 in total) plus an automatic kick from the race (if you don't leave I'll you'll have another 25 point penalty) (75 in total), and a two (2) race suspension. 4th Time: Automatic kick from race with a two (2) race suspension. (11) If you can't connect to a race you will still be given 130 points or last place pts. and a start added to your stats. (12) If you can get in due to the race being full you'll recieve last place pts. (13) If you are unable to make a race let me know a day in advance. You are allowed to choose someone els to drive your car. You will get all the points if you choose to do that. But if you can't find a sub driver 130 points (same as not connecting) will be giving to you (it will count as a sub). Limit of Four (4) Times for the Regular season, and once (1) for The Chase. (14) If you didn't make a race and you don't have a sub driver, no points are awarded. (15) Everybody is required to make a lap in practice, and if your not within 1.5 seconds of the fastest lap you will be kicked from the room and not allowed to race for that race. Example: If the fastest lap is 29.000 secomds, your fastest lap has to be 30.500 second or better. This rule will not count on road courses (Watkins Glen and Chicago Pier). (16) For the first 4 races if anybody new join the league they will be given sub points for the race they didn't run to catch up. It will count as sub on stats (Limit of 4 for the regular season). (17) Their are NO subs or setups allowed for bonus races. (18) When we do a bonus race it will be a default (veteran) setups only race, except for the Coke Zero Team Challange. Only first place will get 10 bonus points going into the chase. (19) If you are not in the league don't try to join the races. (20) You can Qualify for the 2009 Chase by doing one of the following: 1) Having Fourteen (14) Points race starts without using a sub. 2) Winning the most Regular Season Points Races. 3) Winning a Race and starting 8 point Races. 4) Winning the All-Star Race or Budweiser Shootout (anyone can run the All-Star Race if yungdough617 or KX250Frippa approve the person). 5) Being in the Top 9 at the end of the Regular Season (Richmond 4/26/09) (21) Driver points scoring is based on how a driver finishes a race the host of the race whether it's yungdough, Death_Planner or KX250Frippa will write down the results of the race. Points matter in the regular season for chase seeding (rank) and bragging rights but it's only important that you win as much as possible and get bonus points for the chase. The points will be reset to 0 for every chase driver at the start of the chase you receive your bonus points before the Martinsville race also. Example: if you won three (3) regular season race you points total would be 30 before the start of Martinsville. Who ever has the most points at the end of Ford 400 (the final race) will be crowned 2009 Pro Cup Champion. The prize will be full bragging rights and an exclusive 2009 Pro Cup Championship Custom car with your car number Made by Death_Planner. (22) If there was to be a tie in the points at the end of the season the following are tiebreakers (in order). 1) Whoever has more wins 2) Whoever has more Top 5's 3) Whoever has more starts 4) Whoever has the most poles 5) There would be a 8 lap raceoff at Talladega, the winner would be champion. All Pro Cup rules would apply during this race. (23) The Manufactuer's (Team) Champoinship is a little different because their are many ways to earn your team manufactuer (team) points. The ways you can earn points are as followed (you can only get team point in points races): Finishing 1st Place = 10 points Finishing 2nd Place = 8 points Finishing 3rd Place = 5 points Finishing 4th Place = 3 points Finishing 5th Place = 2 points All Other Finishes (starts)=1 point Starting on Pole (without cheating/wallriding) = 2 points Setting (Having) the Fastest lap of the race = 2 points Being the Rookie of the Race (highest finishing rookie driver) = 2 points Being the Biggest Mover (gaining the most positions from the start to the end of the race) = 3 points The only way you can lose points for your team is being penalized for the race or a supension. The penalty is 6 points. The championship will be giving the the end of the regular season (after the Richmond race). The team that has the highest amount of points at the end of the regular season is the 2009 Pro Cup Manufactuer's (Team) Champion. The winning team will receive bragging right as the best team in Bass Pro Racing and a special edition Manufactuer's (team) edition 2009 Pro Cup Manufactuers (team) championship custom car Made by Death_Planner. (24) If there was ever a tie in the Team points the tiebraker would be the following (In Order): 1) The team with more wins 2) The team with more starts 3) There would be a race at Talladega using the Coke Zero Team Challange format except a win would get a 4 drivers a race (2 from each team). (25) Tip: Share good setup's within the team is a smart thing to do for Team points but it's not required it's a recommedation. NO TEAM CHANGES! These are the Pro Cup rules for now, more might be added if nessesary but will be announced in messeges.
