Simply head over to <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tegiwaimports.com\/sim-racing-uk\">www.tegiwaimports.com\/sim-racing-uk<\/a><\/strong>, download the application form, fill it in and email it back to <a href=\"mailto:admin@tegiwa.com\">admin@tegiwa.com<\/a>.

We\u2019ll be using a standard system to award drivers points based upon their finishing position. The lobby format will consist of a 60-minute practice, 15-minute qualifying session and a 40-minute race. We\u2019ll also be enforcing a 20 incident limit for each race which means if you do reach this limit you will receive a stop-and-go penalty.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tegiwaimports.com\/blog\/?attachment_id=3657\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3657\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3657\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tegiwaimports.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/TegiwaSimRacing-Rules.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tegiwa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/TegiwaSimRacing-Rules.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.tegiwa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/TegiwaSimRacing-Rules-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.tegiwa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/TegiwaSimRacing-Rules-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.tegiwa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/TegiwaSimRacing-Rules-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tegiwa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/TegiwaSimRacing-Rules-640x640.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.tegiwa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/TegiwaSimRacing-Rules-197x197.jpg 197w, https:\/\/www.tegiwa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/TegiwaSimRacing-Rules-245x245.jpg 245w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Obviously, we want to make this as fun and enjoyable as possible so any direct messages or abusive comments via any channels will not be tolerated and will result in removal from the league.
