General Guidelines
Profanity
Profanity on the part of the racers or turn marshals will not be tolerated.
• The race director will issue a warning to the competitor of their unacceptable behavior.
• Any second infraction will result in a five-lap penalty.
• Further infractions will result in disqualification, possible ejection from the raceway.
• Repeat offenders may be directed to leave the event and may be barred from future NECC events.
• Please remember we are racing toy race cars. Let’s all have fun with it.
Marshalling
You MUST corner marshal when called upon, even if you feel it is not 'your turn.'
• A marshal's number one priority is putting de-slotted cars back in their correct slot.
• You may NOT use
any electronic devices (ie: cell phones, ipods, etc.) while you are a marshal!
• Failure to marshal when called shall result in a 5-lap penalty for each heat and possible disqualification from future series races.
• This penalty will be imposed when the race director feels it is the best time—next race, next month, whatever.
• A mutually agreeable substitute marshal may take your place, but you must notify the race director.
• Corner marshals may not leave their positions to work on someone else’s car unless they get a substitute before they leave. Failure to do so will result in a 5-lap penalty for the person whose car you are working on.
• Marshals should only make minor, immediate repairs to cars while at their positions (fix braid, un-crumple body, etc.).
• If the work on the car is serious enough to impair a marshal’s ability to do his or her job, the car must be given to the driver or his/her pit crew.
• Volunteering to marshal when you are not required does not excuse you from marshaling when you are required.
