Notes:
(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
cars that join after they are on track until they go back to the garage.
(2) Please make sure you are fully aware of the SimRacing.org.uk Rules (https://www.simracing.org.uk/index.php?pid=7) especially the
rules about in-game chat messages.
(3) You will need to install Race Room Racing Experience from Steam, and have the Euro and American Track Packs for this series (And maybe another
non pack track occasionally)
(4) Please exercise caution when pitting as some tracks have a speed limit.

(5) 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.

Thanks Geoff, it's DTM92 only, as, apparently. the TCs have been slowed down.

I will add some more events in the next few days, something happening today  ???
Can't remember what  ::)

Each series will be 6 events. The NSU series will be 2 shorter races each night.

Another year, another super RRE race..! I find the Merc a little trickier since the update, and trickier to set up too. And on soft tyres now it was getting very tail happy towards the end. Great battle with Geoff, but sorry for the contact at the last corner - I should have left you more room there. Also a shame that I miscalculated the fuel, and ran dry just before the start of the last lap. Ah well. Congrats Geoff, Riccardo and Matt.

I did not start well in this 2020, I was just lucky I did not deserve second place, too few but great warriors too bad

Good battle with Frex for most of the race, shame you ran out of fuel.

Grats to Riccardo & Matt.  :clap: :clap:

Amazing that the thread I posted at Sector3 forums has had nearly 150 views but not one extra person showed up!  ???

I think the new ranked servers RaceRoom are running will have an effect on organised races, very easy to just jump on a server & compete with 20 or more other racers. Been using the NSU one regularly & had some really good races & the GTR3 one seems full for almost every race. Some others, notably FR X90, don't appear to be very popular though.

AH well, we can keep plugging away, It would only take another 2 or 3 to make the races even more interesting.
I did my usual "almost on the pace but keep falling off" was matching Riccardo for some laps, had I stayed on
I might have given him a race..

The NSU events are double headers.  ;D

That's true, and I've been on the NSU and DTM 92 servers quite a bit myself (wish there was a Group 4 server though). Still (for me) not as much fun as our league races here however, even with the meagre turnouts..

Sorry I missed this race but only arrived home yesterday after a while in hospital with the dreaded flu!! Grandson managed to update my new gaming laptop before I went down with the flu, so I intend to race once I’m fit.

Thanks Geoff, already surprised myself with how much I have done today and have been having an unwinding afternoon and evening.  ;D
