A lot of guys jumpstart because they think the box has to be red I decided to make this tutorial for the noobs
Sighting lap
The sighting lap takes 5 minutes. When the timer is on 0:00, the warmup lap starts. Make sure you see the green flag.
Warmup lap
The warmup lap takes 5 minutes BUT it ends once the final rider is on the grid. So don't move on the grid during the warmup lap!
Race
Don't move on the grid and wait until the lights go off.
Position
Most important part, the position.
Go to the red arrow (that's your position on the grid). Use the walkkeys (default: I, K) once you're near the grid.
If you see an arrow in a box, it's ok. If the box is red, it's not ok!
Wrong: Box is red = jumpstart
Wrong: Box is not red but you're too near the line. A bit of lag = jumpstart. Steering a bit too much = jumpstart.
Good
tl;dr:
BOX = RED => BAD
USE THE WALK KEYS (I,K)
