Brand new to RD is our new Advanced Driver Academy which will be held every 2 weeks. New Premium Member or just need a little help? Unsure about everything you need to get started and be comfortable? Let us help you with anything regarding racing here at RD. We'll cover everything from Assetto Corsa game settings, Setups, Teamspeak or whatever you would like to know. This week our focus will be on the Maserati GranTurismo MC GT4 so you can jump straight into Tuesday's Social Event races and be ready to go.

All premium members using their full Real Name in the forum, race servers and teamspeak can sign up for this event. Sign up below and make sure to tag fellow community members who you think would benefit!!! Space is limited.

With limited space we are asking everyone to work together to allow others to take part. Here are a few things you can do to help us:

• If you were in the last academy, please do not sign up for this one unless spots are available the day of the academy.
• Make sure you have the DLC for this event.
  
• If you sign up, please show up. If you can't make it, we expect you to sign out no later than 1 hour before the academy starts to make room for others. Failure to do so will make you ineligible for the next Academy.
  
• Read the Club Rules and make sure you have your real name showing up in game and on teamspeak.
• Password for the Academy server will be given out on teamspeak. Please be sure to be on time so we can go forward in a timely manner.
• Have fun

Our Format will be as follows:

Introduction

• Question and answer session regarding Teamspeak and Asseto Corsa Game Settings. Please no wheel settings questions as that would eat up a lot of time and there are plenty of tutorials on the internet for this.
• Driving lines brief synopsis.
• Do a few laps following Jeremy. Please no passing. That will happen later
  
• Class goes out to drive in 5-10 second intervals. Q&A afterwards.
• Setup basics. Go over the order in which we start dialing it in ie Tires first and why
• Start building a setup
  
• Class goes back out to try the new settings to see how it feels. Q&A afterwards.
  
• Repeat setup and tweaking.
  
• Class goes out for 10 minute race.
• Final Q & A. Class dismissed.

End of Session
