NITRO KNIGHTS - RACING RULES / PENALTY RULES
Updated as of 20th august 2025
For any enquiries or appeals> [Link]
On following the track:
Generally speaking, we must follow the track layout according to Real Penalty app.
But since it's not perfect on every track, the general rule of thumb is to keep at
least 1 wheel inside the white lines. 3 or 4 wheels out of the track will be
considered a track limits violation warning. More than two of them, will get you a
penalty, as it follows:
· During qualifying: Your lap will be considered invalid, and this will deduct 10
positions from your final result.
· 3 out of tracks limits violations: 10s penalty on your final time.
· This will be cumulative, meaning every consecutive offtrack will incur another
10s added to your final race time.
· If you're found abusing a loophole/cutting a corner not detected by Real Penalty
during the race, you will be disqualified.

Forcing drivers off the track:
When overtaking an opponent, you must be careful not to take/ force them out of the
track. So mind your braking points and give the opponent enough space. In case you
force someone out, this might get you a penalty:
· If the offtrack incident was a mistake and not intended, and there was no signs
of unsportsmanship, 10 seconds will be applied. This will be mitigated if you give
your position back to the driver you forced out, in which case, no penalty should
be applied. This must be done during the same lap.
· If the incident was caused on purpose, the total time of a Stop and Go + 10
seconds will be added to your final time. Take into account this will vary between
tracks, admins will know the total time according to the track.
· Continuously forcing drivers offtrack and driving recklessly will cause your
disqualification.

Causing a collision:
When driving, please use your best judgement and don't push the limits so hard that
you ruin someone else's day. But if you do, penalties will be applied as follows:
· If the collision was unintended, and it caused none or minor damage to the other
driver, it will be considered a warning.
· If the collision was unintended, but the other car got offtrack and you gained
their position while causing the incident, 10 seconds will be added to your final
time. In order to mitigate this, you should give the position gained to the other
car in the same lap.
· If the collision was unintended, but the other car suffered major damages and was
taken out blatantly, a stop and go penalty will be applied to your final race time.
This may be mitigated if you show sportsmanship and give back the position to your
rival, in which case admins will consider the damages caused to the other car when
considering applying you a 10s penalty or a drive through.
· If the collision was intended, you will receive a stop and go on your final time.
Driving recklessly into other drivers continuously will cause your
disqualification. Also, you will be banned and blacklisted from our races.

Please, keep in mind that every race is fully reviewed after the race ends, but if
you have some incident to denounce, you can always do it using the tool WSS
provides you, so we can revise it further and take actions on it. Other than that,
please use common sense, and enjoy the races with us!
