- Choice
of Law and Forum. The TOS and the relationship between you and RACINGQUARTERS.COM®
shall be governed by the laws of the State of California without regard
to its conflict of law provisions.
- Waiver
of Jury Trial; Arbitration. You agree to submit any dispute arising
out of this Agreement to binding Arbitration. Either party may submit
any dispute arising out of the terms of this Agreement to binding
arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under
the Commercial Arbitration Rules. Judgment on the award rendered by
the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The
parties agree that any such controversy shall be submitted to three
arbitrators selected pursuant to the provisions of the American Arbitration
Association Commercial Arbitration Rules. This arbitration agreement
applies regardless of the claims or causes of action alleged. The
arbitrators’ award will be final and binding, but in no event can
an award exceed the amount of direct compensatory damages actually
incurred by the claiming party, and no party can recover for anything
other than the benefit of the bargain under the agreement. The parties
further agree that no punitive or exemplary damages can be considered
or awarded by the arbitrators. The parties agree that the American
Arbitration Association Commercial Arbitration Rules are modified
as follows: the procedures set forth in California’s Rules of Civil
Procedure applicable in California will govern the arbitration, including
those relating to disclosures and listing of witnesses and exhibits,
initiation and completion of discovery, and dispositive motions. The
parties agree that any arbitration conducted in this case shall be
held in Kern County, California.
-
Attorneys’ Fees. In the event it becomes necessary for any party to
employ counsel to enforce any of the provisions of the TOS, or the
breach thereof, then, in that event, the non-prevailing party agrees
to pay to the other party all of such other party’s costs and expenses,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees.
- Waiver
and Severability of Terms. The failure of RACINGQUARTERS.COM®
to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the TOS shall not
constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of
the TOS is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid,
the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give
effect to the parties' intentions as reflected in the provision, and
the other provisions of the TOS remain in full force and effect.
- No
Right of Survivorship and Non-Transferability. You agree that your
RACINGQUARTERS.COM® account is non-transferable and any rights

all contents therein permanently deleted.

the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related
to use of our Service or the TOS must be filed within one (1) year
after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.
- Miscellaneous.
If any provision in the TOS is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable,
such provision shall be reformed to reflect the intent of the parties
and the economics of the transaction and the validity, legality or
enforceability of the remaining provisions will not, in any way, be
affected or impaired thereby.
- Headings
contained in the TOS are included for convenience only and form no
part of the agreement between the parties. If a question of interpretation
arises, the Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by
the parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring
