A league is a season of rounds, and each round is one race night at your venue. You pick how a race night runs once, when you set the league up. On the night, staff run everything from one screen with one big button that always shows the next step. Drivers score points, and the public standings update the moment staff confirm the night.
Leagues are included with every Multitap Cloud venue. They are not part of Cloud Lite, which is leaderboards only.
How a league works
- A season of rounds. Each round has a date and a track. Most venues run one round a week on the same night.
- One race night format per season. Practice, qualifying and a race, a sprint and a feature, two races, or heats with A and B mains. You choose it once and every round uses it. See Race night formats.
- One screen on the night. The Tonight screen takes staff from check-in through every session to the results. See Running a race night.
- On a rig or online. Drivers can race on your rigs or join from home. Both drive on the same race server.
- Missed nights. You can drop each driver's worst rounds, run make-up nights where a driver who missed a round races later for limited points, or both.
- Your rules. Everything that is a venue decision is an option with a sensible default: points, bonuses, grids, timing and what happens when someone misses a night.
Where leagues live
| Who | Where |
|---|---|
| Staff | Admin panel › Competition › Leagues |
| Drivers and fans | Public pages at your venue's Multitap Cloud address: all leagues at /leagues, one league's standings at /leagues/<id>, a results page for each round, head-to-head at /leagues/<id>/h2h, live timing at /leagues/<id>/live while a round runs, and a profile page for each driver. |
| Your TVs and front desk | The admin Links page and the kiosk Links screen list the league links with QR codes. |
Only leagues that are Active or Finished are public. Draft and Archived leagues are hidden from drivers.
Creating a league
Open Leagues and press New league. Setup has four steps, shown across the top: Name, cars & points, Race night format, Rounds & dates and Drivers. Back and Next move between them, and nothing is saved until the last step.
[SCREENSHOT: New league setup, step 2 "Race night format"] The four-step strip at the top, the preset cards (Classic selected) and the session list with lengths and starting grid.
- Name, cars & points.
Give the league a Name (for example Tuesday Night GT3 Cup) and an optional Description. Under Cars, the race settings editor sets the cars allowed, assists and conditions for every round (see Race settings below). Pick a Points table: F1 style (25, 18, 15…), Top 5 (10, 8, 6, 4, 2) or Linear (15 down to 1). You can change the table later in the league's Settings.
- Race night format.
Pick a preset card, then adjust the sessions: their names, lengths, starting grids and scoring. Race night formats explains every choice. Under When a driver misses a night set:
Option Default What it does Drop worst rounds None None, or 1 to 5. Each driver's worst rounds don't count towards the championship. Allow make-up nights On A driver who misses a night can race a make-up night. You add one from the round. Best a make-up driver can score 4th A make-up night can't score better than this place. When a make-up driver finishes higher Winning still pays Winning still pays 4th-place points: anyone who finishes 1st to 4th gets 4th-place points. Everyone moves down: 1st pays 4th, 2nd pays 5th…: the winner gets 4th-place points, 2nd gets 5th-place points, and so on down the order. - Rounds & dates.
Add a row per round and pick its track. Set the First round date and time and press Every week to fill every date seven days apart. You can still change any row, and + Add round adds another. Not sure yet? Leave this empty and add rounds from the league page later.
- Drivers.
Add drivers by searching your venue's driver list. This step is optional: press Skip for now and add drivers from the league page any time. Choose Start as: Active (open for the first night), the default, or Draft (only you can see it). Press Create league and you land on the new league's page.
The setup page says what went wrong. Fix it and press Create league again. Anything that was already created is not created a second time.
Race settings
The race settings editor appears in setup step 1, in the league's Settings under Advanced race settings, and when you edit a round. It sets the cars, assists, conditions and server rules. Start from fills every field from a preset, and + Save as preset keeps your own values under a name. Conditions work the same way as on the Groups page; see Conditions. Session lengths and reversed grids are not set here: they come from the race night format.
A round can change these settings for that round only, for example a night race. Open the round with Edit and change Race rules for this round.
The league page
Click a league in the list to open it. The header shows the name, the status, a one-line summary, and two buttons: Public page opens the league's public standings, and New season copies the league as a draft, with its race night format and settings, ready for the next season.
A draft league shows a banner, Not visible to drivers yet, with a Make active button.
The page has four tabs: Rounds, Drivers, Standings and Settings.
Rounds
[SCREENSHOT: League page, Rounds tab] The Tonight card at the top with Open race night, then round cards showing different buttons (Edit, Review & confirm, View results) and a make-up night row under one round.
When a round is scheduled for today, or a round is running, a Tonight card sits at the top with the round, track, time and an Open race night button. Otherwise the top card shows the next round and its date.
Below it, each round has a card with its number, track, date, status and one main button. The button always matches where the round is:
| Round is | Main button |
|---|---|
| Upcoming | Edit |
| Tonight | Open race night |
| Running | Back to race night |
| Results in, not confirmed | Review & confirm |
| Confirmed | View results |
The ⋯ menu on a round card holds Change date or track, Duplicate, Reopen results (on confirmed rounds) and Remove. + Add rounds adds several rounds at once, with the same First round and Every week tools as setup. + Add make-up night is covered in Make-up nights; make-up nights show as rows under the round they make up.
Drivers
Add a driver with a Display name (start typing to pick someone from your driver list), a car number, a car and an optional skin, then press Add driver. Edit on a row changes the name, number, car, skin or linked driver.
Each driver shows a status: Approved, Waiting for approval or Withdrawn. Drivers who sign up from Discord wait for your Approve unless auto-approve is on in Settings. A withdrawn driver keeps their results and shows Re-admit to bring them back.
Standings
One column per round and a points total. The admin standings include rounds whose results are in but not yet confirmed; those columns are marked provisional, and the public standings don't count them until you confirm. Points from a make-up night are marked M. Dropped rounds are shown dimmed.
Settings
Settings is one long page in sections. Press Save settings to keep your changes; the race night format has its own save button.
| Section | What's in it |
|---|---|
| General | Name, description and status (Draft, Active, Finished, Archived). Drivers don't see a league that is Draft or Archived. |
| Race night format | The sessions on a race night and Save race night format. See Changing the format later. |
