Welcome to the RD Assetto Corsa Racing Club. This Sunday we're heading to the Thruxton, for some touring car action!!

The evening will consist of a traditional BTCC twin race format, with points given for both races. Qualy is for the sprint only. Your position in the sprint them determines your feature race grid slot, which requires a mandatory pitstop, changing at least 2 tyres as per the 1998 regs!

A message to all Drivers

If you run off track, you must check to see that its clear before you re enter the track. Always try to re-enter the track parallel to the racing line. Stay off the racing line until you are up to race speed and do not block any fast approaching car.

When joining the track from the pits, remain inside the white line and stay off the racing line until you are up to speed.

During qualification, do not race on your out lap, let other drivers by.


Golden Rule
  1. If you hit somebody, sending them off the track and carry on like nothing happened, you take the risk of being banned for 30 days.
  2. Instead, you should always wait for the affected drivers, and that way you can be 100% sure you will not get a ban.
Track limits
  1. No more than 2 wheels over the white/yellow line without a lift of the gas please.
    You will be penalized if you break our rules
Note: Please use your full real name in Discord. Not doing so may result in you being kicked from the server if an admin cannot identify you as a premium member.
 
Damn, I've got the neighbours coming Sunday night so I'm going to miss this one.
Now I'll have to organize an event myself in order to race with these cars!

Have a good one, guys!

I am getting error downloading the BMW. When done through CM the error is not supported car? When installed manually I get cannot find lods.ini for car. Any ideas?

Hi Pat. I always download it straight from RD or the mods tab in S.gp. Not sure CM works very well for getting mods. Had issues with it before.
