 You can define how to measure the race duration in two ways:
-  - **Time**: Race finishes when the given amount of time goes (hours, minutes and seconds)
+  - **Time**: Race finishes when the given amount of time goes (hours, minutes and seconds).
   - **Laps**: Race finishes when the amount of laps is completed.

-:!: However, it can be defined an extra time to complete the last lap. It is the time the racers have to complete their last lap once the have passed before the race duration.

 The qualifying mode decides who wins the race. These are the available modes:
-== Lap Count ===
+=== Lap Count ====
 It wins the racer with more laps in the given time to run. If two cars have the same lap count, the lower total time invested will break the tie. If both of them have the same total time also (hard to see as lapcounter resolution uses to be milliseconds) the best lap time will break the tie.

 === Best Lap ===
 It wins the racer who drives fastest. It doesn't matter the total time, just the best lap completed is used to sort the results. If two racers have the same best lap time, the racer who get it first will win.
