Sabre - the scheduling of the games may limit players to what comps are to be played. well see how that goes.


Note - for the record, the WCG rules state that if you do not hold an Irish Passport, then you may not participate in the Irish Heats.

Additionally, were looking into getting the age limit dropped to 16.

Couple more questions:

Are spectators being allowed in.

Also, are there plans to have large screens on display or results on display?
How are tracks / maps decided upon?
Is the Need for Speed going to be 1v1 or what format will it take?
How are the draws going to be displayed so that people are aware of who and when they are playing?
Is it one race/round or a best-of format?

Thanks very much!
