This is the domestic newswire for the Whittoria Auto Club, sanctioning body for all racing series in Whittoria.
SIGNUPS FOR THIS LEAGUE HAVE MOVED. I'm operating this league primarily over on the EFR forums. This is subject to change. Information here will still be relevant and updated soon.
Keep in mind it's the 80's here in Whittoria. Keep sponsor logos and paint schemes era appropriate.

*Note: The Regional Sportsman Division may not be run in 1982
OPEN WHEEL
SPORTS CARS:
Let me make this clear: THIS IS A DOMESTIC RACING LEAGUE. I scorinate all races on my own time. However, if you feel as though a team in your nation would like to field a car, send me a telegram. Keep in mind there's not a lot of room for new teams, but arrangements can be made. I don't expect an overflow of that kind though, so it probably won't be a problem. A Whittorian company would also be willing to back your team in exchange for pasting its logo on your car if you didn't have any other financial backing.
Sucrati's Patriot Racing is an example of an independent team that competes in the Grand National Series.
There will be a three car limit per series on foreign teams. First time participants will be limited to one driver per series.
APPLICATION FOR DRIVERS
If you are interested in sending a driver, please fill out this form. Upon completion your driver will receive his or her WAC license and may participate in the series in which he or she applied. A team will then contact you with contract information.
Note: If entering in the Sports Car Championship you must list AT LEAST TWO drivers and NO MORE THAN FOUR drivers under first section.
IF YOU FIELD AN INDEPENDENT TEAM (such as Patriot Racing or Jeffgordonville International Motorsports) please fill out these next two sections, as you'll be providing your own car and pit crew as well.
Please keep in mind that while you may request a certain number for your driver, be prepared to be assigned something different by the race team you sign with. Car number rights are purchased by the race team, just like in NASCAR, and your driver will just have to live with the car number of the team he signs with. Trades can be arranged.
Also note that when your driver signs a contract with a team he or she must honor it until it expires. (Remember though, all contracts are negotiable)
RP BONUS
All new foreign drivers will have have minimum ratings that are lower than the Whittorian drivers. However, those who produce quality RPs will have their minimums raised to equal those of domestic drivers. Veteran foreign drivers will have minimums equal to Whittorian drivers. RPing may be done in the results thread, after permission is given to you via telegram.
Each season all Whittorian drivers and teams have their ratings randomized (this will not affect foreign drivers, but it may affect their vehicle if the drive for a Whittorian team).
SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
Many teams in the WAC seek financial backing. While most are sponsored by domestic companies, there will be opportunities for foreign investors to sponsor one of our domestic teams. There are a few rules to who the WAC allows to sponsor cars:
1.) NO MILITARY GROUPS/FOREIGN MILITARIES
-Should be self explanatory. The only armed forces the Whittoria Auto Club allows to advertise in any of its series is Whittoria's Armed forces. Don't like it? Too bad, suck it up.
2.) NO ARMS MANUFACTURERS
-The only exception to this rule is if your company produces civilian goods as well, much like Boeing and Remington. But in order for that to happen, your company's primary focus has to on civilian goods, or you must be able to prove to me that you're more than just a pimp-my-gun fanboy via a storefront in the GE&T forum.
3.) NO SLAVE TRADE/ADULT ORIENTED SERVICES/ETC.
-Self explanatory. I expect you all to know better.
Ultimately, the decision will be up to the team owners, so keep what they're looking for in mind when you apply. If you are interested in sponsoring a team, please fill out this form:

HOSTING A RACE
If you are interested in hosting a race in one our our series, please contact me via telegram. So far the only WAC race held overseas (that I know of so far) is the Andossa Se Mitrin Vega Grand Prix, held from 1967 to 1976 on the ASMV mainland.
If there is a motorsport competition you have missed out on due to late signup or any other reason, feel free to apply to compete in the WAC. That being said:
THE WHITTORIA AUTO CLUB IS A DOMESTIC LEAGUE AND MAKES NO ATTEMPT TO COMPETE WITH ANY INTERNATIONAL MOTORSPORT COMPETITION IN ANY WAY, SHAPE, OR FORM WHATSOEVER.
All series will be scorinated using NASCAR Racing 2003 by Papyrus.
If you have any other questions feel free to TG me.
The In Character Results Thread can be found here.
Comprehensive results will be posted here. However, there is no forum.
This is where I'll be taking signups. Results will still be posted here and at the webs site above.
