This race, after completion, will set a record as the longest ever completed race to be conducted in JC2MP.Details:This race will aim for a length of 2 hours. We will be using a slightly modified version of JC2MP Racing 1.0 for this race. We will be running 6 laps on a course made by me called "Ultimate Test Couse" (Yeah, I know, it's a bad name.) A video walkthrough of the course is available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sf-YcdHuMPc Also, a script allowing admins to start the race has been constructed so that we may easily start the race just by typing in a command into chat. A special catchup script has been created just for this event which limits the top speed of cars near the front and gives cars in the back a chance to catch-up to the leaders.Though not immediately relevant to the event, it should also be noted that a script allowing RPWU leadership--BIGGamerer and hairybones1997--to kick unruly players and a script that lets RPWU members set their car colors to unique options has been created for this event.Rules:1. No trolling. This includes, but is not limited to, doing a P.I.T. maneuver on fellow racers, driving the wrong way, blocking the race track, hindering the progress of cars who are on the lead lap while being at least one lap down.2. No sandbagging. The overall goal of all participants in the event should be to win it.3. No spamming chat. Don't do it.4. No lagging. Players who consistently exhibit >350 ms ping may be kicked (if the lag is not consistent among all participants/is not the fault of the server.)5. No flaming/racism/unfounded hate/hurtful comments. Please do not personally attack anyone else in the chat unless they started it first. (An admin will ultimately decide who needs to get kicked.)Punishments:Violating of any of the above rules will be grounds for getting kicked out of the event. BIGGamerer and hairybones1997 reserve the right to kick any player they feel should not be allowed to participate in the event, even if they do not violate rules during the event. Such action may be taken against users whose actions are seen as destructive or detrimental to the success of this event or the crew in general. RPWU members that violate the rules will receive a temporary punishment. Non-RPWU members will be permenantly banned from future events.Event Procedure:All participants are to join the servers before the designated start time; preferably 15 minutes before.

(If you get kicked before the race starts, it is to allow people that have reserved slots to use them. This will only happen if there are more than 32 people that are trying to join the event.) Once RPWU leadership is ready to begin the event, we will force-join everyone to the race--yay for scripting--and the race will begin.IF the server is to fail for whatever reason, or if a different server needs to be used, we will use this server to conduct the event:Emergency server name: RPWU 2hr RaceEmergency server IP: 96.58.171.165:7777Emergency Password: RPWURPWU is willing to/may restart the event once for the following reasons:--A player loses connection to the servers--The server becomes laggy--Server scripts malfunctionRPWU leadership will call a manual vote for restarting the event if we feel the event should be restarted. If more than 50% of participants vote in favor of restarting the event, we will do so. RPWU leadership will NOT restart the event under these circumstances:--RPWU leadership is unable to commence the restart vote (This may happen if a user classified as being part of RPWU leadership, experiences a disconnect.)--Restarting would cause the race to finish past 11:00 PM EDT--The race has entered lap 3Participation:The event will be limited to 32 players. Spots are available on a first-come, first-serve basis for anyone who wishes to participate in the race--Spectators will not be allowed to sign up for the event. RPWU members take first priority in admission, then everyone else. Participants that sign up will have their spots reserved, subject to the section above on the event procedure.
