Format:
Rally racing is a point to point race where all cars travel the same distance and time is the critical measurement. Multiple “stages” make up the full “circuit” and the car traveling the total distance in the least amount of time is the winner. This is the 6 Stage Circuit:
Positions determined by total time to complete the stage, since each driver will have completed the same distance. If the driver misses or does not complete a stage, they are awarded the slowest time posted for that stage plus a 5 second penalty. As each stage is completed, race results will be posted showing the fastest driver at the top with number of seconds behind the leader for each sequential driver.
Drivers will always know how far they are behind the leader, how far they are behind the next position ahead of them, and how far ahead of the next driver behind them.

Just want to clarify, we are talking about WRC or World Rally Championship cars right? Cars that race on gravel, snow and mud, sometimes a little pavement. Ninco has a Porsche 997 that is a road rally car that doesn't fall into that category, that would also eliminate all of the Ninco classic, vintage Monogram and Carrera cars too.
Ken, if the car raced in a rally race and came with a driver and navigator that is holding some sort of map, this will work. And yes the NINCO Porsche 997 rally version will work as well as the Jaguar XK 120 with driver and navigator. The cars that i missed that i will post in the rules are the NSR Cleo and any sort of pro/pro race kit cars. In short no $80.00 + dollar cars. This is a race that Allen thought up and it's a great idea, we just need to keep it simple and get any bugs worked out, if there are any. This is a new style of racing for us so keeping the cars simple and what everyone has is best for now.
