          • If agreed:
            • The Server will be rebooted with a single 5 minute qualifying session and a 10 minute race.
            • The event will commence as per the new configuration, with points awarded accordingly.

            • The server will be reconfigured to remove any qualifying sessions and add 5 minute practice session, which allows the drivers to reconnect.  The race length may be shortened if needed.
