As well as the usual rules (which can be found in the ISAMCAR section of the forums) there are new rules for IS1 for the new season.
Engine modification:
Engine modifications such as boost mapping are strictly prohibited, drivers who are found to be using boost while be given a strike in addition to a potential disqualification from the race. A season ban may occur if a driver has used boost mapping on several occasions.
3 strike system
If a driver repeatedly causes a series of up to 3 incidents, or behaves in an abusive manner to admins or other drivers, they will be given a race ban (depending on the severity of each incident). If a driver sends racist messages directed at another member or anyone they will first be given a warning (again,depending on the severity) and ultimately, be given a race ban.
If a driver is given a strike for an incident they do not believe is valid they may post on the "Appeals" section (TO BE ADDED AS OF 11/08/2013). A vote may also be called among drivers and admins on the facebook group. Drivers can launch a maximum of 3 appeals for every 2 months.
Inactivity
If a driver is inactive over a series of races without a good reason they may face being moved to a different team or being kicked out of the league all together! If a driver misses 5 straight races without any valid reason or a response then they will be kicked from the league.
If an inactive driver misses 3-4 straight races without a valid explanation they will be moved down the grid to a lesser known team.
Chat
If chat is used in order to send racist messages or something deliberately insulting a driver then the user will be either warned or banned for a race depending on the severity. Chat may not be used in qualifying or race for off-topic messages. In addition, if a driver crashes or gets annoyed at something there is no need to send a message such as "FUUUU I CRASHED DAMN WILLY CRACKER BONGO PARTY". If you do need to say something that is related to the race and important e.g a question like "How many laps?" then the message is allowed providing it is sent in one message not
