*IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ*

Historic racing is famous for the gentleman racer era and that is the kind of atmosphere I want to foster in the club. Please take time to read these web pages and try to get an understanding of what racing in this club is/should be all about.

Thanks

Just as a note if some of you running also into that problem to figure out which utc time is your local time and don't want to think every week again about it. You can set easily a second time to your taskbar like I did here.

Hi Roberto.
Nice to see you are staying with us - welcome buddy.

Aww. Last time this car was used I was doing an iRacing race.
This time... the same - also, I've removed one of my wisdom teeth (I wasn't wise enough), and are not really getting much food in, so I have no energy/concentration. I shouldn't drive at all!
Seems like I have to use the M1 for a Sunday event to be able to race the car!

Better luck next time for me!

Also, RDRC is in it's last month, I'll get a lot of time free'd up after that, so I really expect to be back to more regular historic driving again! I miss sliding around!
