car comes out of the slot during racing, the car will be returned to the
track by a track marshall.

other extreme circumstance to be determined by the person running the
scoring system for that race.

finishing order will be determined by the total combined distance,
measured in laps and tenths of a lap, completed for all 4 heats.
