RAC stands for Recent Average Credit.

It's the average of credit you earned (your ID, your computer, your team) of the period of time, since you started earning credit. You can compare it to your car: Credit is like the odometer. This rises every time you get credit granted. RAC is like the speedometer. It rises and falls with recent and past credit grants.

When you quit running the project, your RAC for that project will decay every week by being divided in half.
