Fragmaster's Fox Friday ([FM] FOX Friday) is a weekly single event series and single seater league run by Fragmaster. Its inaugural season was held in 2010. [FM] FOX Friday is a weekly event and is held on Friday evenings. Although it's a seasonal league with its own standings, it's a free and ready-to-race type league: no need of signing up and committing to a whole scheduled season. Joining the "FOX - Race Day" voice channel of the FM Discord server is required to participate (as drivers get called out on Discord during qualifying - listening is sufficient, talking not required).

Format

As its name suggests, the Formula XR (FOX) is used for every race. The upcoming track is picked by the winner of the previous race. After the pick, the track is set on server and is available for practice for a week (until the next race on Friday).

Qualifying

The event is held in the evenings. There is a one-shot qualification before the race: players get called out on track in "FOX - Race Day" voice channel of the FM Discord server. The connection list (N) dictates the qualifying driver order. A called out driver is allowed to run the outlap and a single timed hotlap. After crossing the start/finish line, the driver must spectate (Shift+S). Only called out players are allowed on-track. The qualification ends and track opens when the last driver completes their timed lap and the organizer says so. Only those are allowed to participate in the race, who have set a valid time during the qualification and are in the Top 40 (as 40 is the max grid spot number). There's usually a 5-minute break between quali and the race.

Race

Races are usually 1 hour and 10 minutes long. A single mandatory pitstop is required (no work needed, but refuelling is recommended as 100% fuel for FOX isn't enough to last the whole race). Like in every race, the document of Rules of Clean Racing should be followed.

There are no starting numbers, no skin requirements or any special in-game name requirements.
