(1) It's best if all drivers can make sure they are connected before the Qualifying session as drivers on track during qualifying will not see

rules about in-game chat messages.
(3) You will need to install Race Room Racing Experience from Steam, and have the relevant Track Packs for this series
(4) Please exercise caution when pitting as some tracks have a speed limit.
(5) Start procedure
*It will be the pole sitter's responsibility to complete the first lap at a pace that allows the rest of the grid to follow comfortably
*There should be no overtaking or hard accelerating/braking
*Drivers should avoid getting too far behind or too close to the driver in front
*Approximately 20 seconds before crossing the start line the pole sitter should slow down to a speed of no more than 50mph (80km/h)
*Each following driver shall close up directly behind the driver in front also maintaining a speed of no more than 50mph (80km/h)
*The pole sitter should maintain that speed until they cross the start line and then accelerate away to start the race (lap2)
*Each following driver should only accelerate when the driver directly ahead does (they do not have to wait until crossing the start line)
*No overtaking is allowed before crossing the start line at the completion of the formation lap
(6) Please follow the SROUK guidelines for using kerbs etc. Please keep 2 wheels on the track surface (kerbs do not count as track surface)
Excessive cutting of corners will seen as cheating and the results may be altered to reflect this.

Back to RRE this week, with GT3's round the awesome fast flowing Sachsenring!

Sorry, I'm not near my PC on sunday. Will be staying in a Premier Inn somewhere near Derby.

You slumming it up north for the night after watching the final round of the British GT's at Donington?

Well slumming it for 3 nights, decided to go for sat and sunday visit. Felt too far to go and do it in a day, but not sure why i decided to do saturday as well!

I will be going as well, got to remember to book my ticket before the advance orders shut.

The practice server is up for tomorrows race

Enjoyed my first outing in the GT3s, although the second half of the race was fairly lonely after my spin at the final turn early on.

Sorry about rushing off at the beginning, I forgot it was a rolling start.  ::)

Congrats to the podium  :clap: :clap: :clap: cya all at Zhuhai on Thursday.

Sorry to see you spin off Geoff. That gifted me the lead, but a mistake from me allowed Pete by, and then another from Pete allowed me back to the front again. Nothing between us though, and enjoyed the race. Thanks all, congrats Pete and Eck.

Only corner I had traction problems at, which seemed a bit odd to me. It was uphill so more of the weight would have been over the rear wheels which in theory should give more grip.  ???

I really didn't feel competitive last night. I think my few offs, where I understeered wide, were less penalised than the mistakes others made. I couldn't match Geoff's pace at the start, Dieter caught me at a great rates of knots after he cleared the other guys and Eck was gaining fast at the end too. I feel I lucked in to 2nd place really  ::)

Yes, I felt I had to compromise my whole setup just to get out of that corner with safety, even with level 3 TC. I think the exit is slightly off-camber, maybe that is why.


I disagree..!

I Always enjoy Sachsenring, fast flowing circuit, must be an insane track to race on in real life!

Had a good battle in the first half of the race before loosing touch with the others, compounded by running wide a couple of times while trying to lean on it.
