Racing online can be daunting, you may feel more comfortable racing against AI or simply time trialing - but what if we told you that you can race online safe from any abuse in a friendly and accommodating environment. Sounds good? Read on.
For a while now, approximately a dozen premium members have been getting together on a Friday night and racing against each other on AMS2.
Automobilista 2 is probably one one of the more accommodating racing sims, cars don’t feel as brutal when compared to ACC and are easier to drive on the edge of grip compared to iRacing.
Don’t be fooled though, Automobilista 2 is a sim and whilst it is potentially more accessible to sim racers who are just getting into this genre; it still takes time and skill to push these cars to the limit.
This Friday, we are inviting any premium member to join us as we race around the Cascavel circuit in Formula Ford racing cars.
Cascavel is in Brazil and the track has been around since the mid 70s. The track is 3.3km in length and even though it’s a relatively short track, it still manages to provide two long straights and several challenging corners.
Over the years, the track has hosted MotoGP, truck racing, and stock cars, but unfortunately due to the lack of investment in the complex, the circuit had to be withdrawn from the official calendar of many major competitions. The circuit has continued to host motorcycle events, and various other types of automotive events.
As we said the car we are driving is the Formula Ford, or known in the game as Formula Trainer Advanced. It is an open-wheel 1.6 litre race car, weighing just 425 KG and with over 154 HP. It has a good blend of power vs weight vs grip. It’s a fun car to drive, that wants to go sideways - however make sure not to exceed the optimal slip angle or you’ll end up in a barrier!
To be fast, the car rewards precise driving; not like what you saw in the video!
The race will take place this Friday 25th March 2022.
The time table for this rookie event:
