 You must tell us in Ventrilo that you need a restart and drive backwards.

Frozen Car rule:
If a car freezes on the track, at that very moment the entire field is froze and a restart will take place with the line up being heads up to the position each car was running, the remainder of laps will be reset the froze car will start last , with the exception of 5 laps to go, the race will be scored at one lap before the car froze. The final finishing order will be determined by the replay running order one lap before the car froze. The froze car will receive last place points. a froze car and a server issue will be treated the same. There will not be any green white checkered finishes in this series.

During the D,C, or B mains If a car freezes with 3 laps to go the host of that event has the option of re-running the entire Feature or call the race at the very moment the car froze or call a restart with the line up being heads up to the position each car was running, the froze car will restart at the rear of the field or the froze car will receive last place points of the remaining cars still running. It is the circumstance that will decide which option the host shall use.
 
If connection problems exist, a racer will have 5 minutes to get back into server or the race will start.

Glitching:
If a car glitches and causes an accident, it will be charged to the car that glitched.
a lagging car or sideways car or a car in a bubble is considered to be glitching.

Keep in mind this game is only 80% accurate and uses up way to much bandwidth to be on identical synchronization with each computer all replays will be different from one another, several replays will be evaluated to make such a claim.

PING, what does it mean? Simply put, ping (Latency) is a measurement of time, it is the time it takes to send data from your computer to the server and then back to your computer, this is done with node hops, someone might have 3 hops and another might have 15 hops and that's what causes ping to be high, the more hops the higher the ping. all this is done in a measurement called milliseconds, the higher your ping the longer the time. if your ping is 30 your internet speed will be 3 times faster than someone with 90, that's where the server synchronization comes in and averages all 10 players to have the the same speed to the best of the servers ability. Some servers are better than others, that's why you see some servers with all low pings but the cars are still lagging or warping, and others have higher pings but there is little warping this server has better a sync than the one with the lower pings.
