I would hate it if i'm battling for first position and there is someone that got lapped trying to defend, although he is getting lapped, it would cost time and there is always a big possibility that they take each other out. Because the person is getting lapped. |

Anyone getting lapped obviously has to yield to the car on the leading lap. But no surrendering positions to cars of other classes this time I guess. It will all be pretty close.

Random teams are annoying, team 1 on Xbox side is going to dominate. I'm going to make up my own Team 6 (me, Twilicane, Sean) and just hope my imaginary team scores well. LS Customs Racing Team appreciates your concern though. This picture of Bender wins at EVERYTHING! XD |

If we don't call out blue flags, all I have to say is that a leader should not feel bad about punting a lapper into the cheap seats. Also me Cherry and Knockout are representing Team LifeInvader with the red and white! |

I dont think it should be that much of an issue honestly and Im not really worried about it. If you are lapping someone just be smart and pick a safe time to do it. No need to hit people off thats just not clean racing. I dont like the "Im from motorcross thats how its done" mentality. Mostly because this isnt motorcross lol. Seems more like an excuse to race dirty than anything. On the other side of the fence if you are getting lapped dont be a dick and attempt to block the leaders passes. Stick to your lines and make the leader make a clean pass but there is no need to slow down and let traffic through or block people. Chances are if they are lapping you it wont take long for a clean passing opportunity to present itself.

LS Customs Racing Team now proudly presents the first of the 3 superior road machines that will make the ground quake just by the killer sounds their engines. Behold, the LS Customs Racing Coquette Mk 1!  Mk 1 features a new aerodynamic front bumper with added lights for better nighttime visibility, more aerodynamic elements such as rear diffuser and a custom-made spoiler. Who will drive this fine piece of machinery is yet unknown. However, we at LS Customs Racing Team are 100% confident that all the other drivers will see of this car come Sunday will be it's tail lights. (This car was made by crazyman in story mode, or perhaps online. No deductions of who will drive this car are to be made at this point.)

When it comes to lapping cars then the rules are the same as in regular multi-class racing - those being lapped do not have to actively get out of the way and should remain on the racing line at all times.
That means no blocking or weaving all over the road to prevent a car that is trying to lap you get past, and if you're in any doubt just stay on the racing line. It is up to the car trying to get by to get a clean move done. Overtaking cars will be part of the race and that includes lapping traffic. Losing and gaining time in traffic is all part of multi-class racing, and remember that cars being lapped may be in their own battles too.
However of course if you're on the mic and actively talking with a car you're coming up to lap there's nothing wrong with that car choosing to take a wide line to let you though if that's his choice and you both know about it. But it is by no means a requirement and if the leader of the massacros comes up to lap two coquettes in a battle for the lead of their class for example (s)he's going to have to be very careful about overtaking them. At that point it should be seen as just a normal racing situation where the massacro is behind the coquettes in the order.
