Liability
The NWWT was founded for the promotion and improvement of sprint
car auto racing. All members of the NWWT hereby release the NWWT
and any and all employees, corporate or series sponsors, and
anyone else associated with the NWWT from any and all claims
resulting from any injury or death while engaged in any activity
involving the NWWT.
Conduct
All participants at NWWT events are expected to conduct themselves
in a professional manner at all times. Any owner or driver of the
NWWT that fails to conduct himself/herself in a professional and
sportsmanlike manner will be disqualified for the remainder of the
event, and forfeit all points and purse money for the event. The
NWWT Board may impose additional suspension and/or fines after
review of the infraction.
All owners and drivers will be responsible for the conduct of
their pit crew and guests. Unacceptable behavior by any member of
a racing team (i.e., owner, driver, pit crew, guests) will result
in immediate disqualification of the car and driver.
The use of alcohol and drugs is prohibited at all NWWT events. In
addition, the use of stimulants or prescription medications found
to impair the ability of the driver to safely drive will be
reviewed by the NWWT Board. Any driver, owner, pit crewmember or
guest found to be drinking alcohol or taking illegal drugs during
the competition portion of the race program will result in
disqualification of the team from the racing event. The second
offense will result in disqualification from competition with the
NWWT for the remainder of the season.
The NWWT has been formed by owners, drivers, and sprint car racing
enthusiasts who are committed to a sportsmanlike, professional,
competitive, and enjoyable racing series. Our fans appreciate this
perspective. Our sponsors and track promoters demand it. For these
reasons there is a zero tolerance for on-track altercations
involving the cars, and verbal abuse or fighting in the pit areas.
Drivers, owners, and race teams will be expected to handle on- and
off-track incidents in a civilized manner. In the case of a
dispute team members are strictly prohibited from entering another
team’s pit area. If a race team feels that a serious infraction of
the sportsmanlike and professional racing code of NWWT has
occurred they should contact a NWWT official at the track.
Penalties for violation of the NWWT Rules of Conduct will be
decided upon by NWWT officials on a case-by-case basis, but will
involve as a minimum the disqualification of the racing team at
that event.
