Example

Rule 7

 

If Racer A gets disconnected from the track they will remain out of the race, and considered off the track, until the opportunity arises to re-invite the disconnected racer...based on the DC Lap Grace rule detail above. If the lap grace expires before the racer has a chance to return...he/she may still be able to get back in if the entire track shuts down...and again...based on the lap grace legend.....We will invite everyone back into the race except those who have a blown engine, and etc..

If other racers disconnect within the allotted DC percentage rule AND  before allotted lap grace has gone by Racer A will be re-invited back into the race with no penalty.  If other racers disconnect AFTER the allotted lap grace, Racer A will go down however many laps after the grace. When Racer A gets reconnected he will start at the back of the pack.

For example...if Track A has 8 racers and 2 racers disconnect...then the Track Admin can restart the track. HOWEVER...If the Lap Grace Expires between the 2 racers that disconnected...the race WILL MOVE FORWARD WITHOUT A RESTART...

THIS option is left to the Track Admin to decide on a case by case scenario and MUST BE RESPECTED by all NRL Members.

Several Other Examples:

Ex.  1   Racer A disconnects on lap 30 of a superspeedway track. (10 lap grace) and all other racers disconnect on lap 39. Racer A and everyone will be re-invited into the race and Racer A will start on the lead lap. 

Ex   2   If Racer A disconnects on lap 30 of a Short Track (20 lap grace) and all other racers disconnect on lap 46. Racer A and everyone will be re-invited into the race and Racer A will start on the lead lap.

Ex   3   If Racer A disconnects on lap 30 of a speedway track (15 lap grace) and all other racers disconnect on lap 46. Racer A and everyone will be re-invited into the race and Racer A will start -1 laps down.

Ex   4   If Racer A disconnects on lap 30 of a road Course (5 lap grace) and ONLY 1 more racer loses connection AFTER the lap grace...THE RACE WILL NOT BE RESTARTED. A NEW GRACE PERIOD is based on the last racer who lost connection.

Ex   5   If Racer A disconnects on lap 30 of a road Course (5 lap grace), and Racer B loses connection on lap 38...RACER A IS NOT ELIGIBLE TO REJOIN TE RACE....The new Lap Grace becomes lap 38 for racer C. If Racer C loses connection at lap 42 (within the active lap grace) then ALL RACERS Will be allowed back in the race under the applicable grace...meaning Racer A would be 7 laps down ...Racers B and C will start on the lead lap.
