A message to all Drivers

If you run off track, you have to check to see that its clear before you re enter the track. Do not just keep the gas pinned and pull back on track.

When entering the track from the pits, stay off the racing line until you are up to speed. Do not race on your out lap, let other drivers by. On re-entering the track stay off the racing line until you are up to race speed and do not block any fast approaching car. Try to re-enter the track parallel to the racing line.

Golden Rule

1. If you hit somebody 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 and in game. This should match you real name on RD/s.gp. Not doing so may result in you being kicked from the server if an admin cannot identify you as a premium member.

Come and join us for this *Group C Special Event* . No hassle of choosing the best car for the track as we all will be sitting in the Japanese monster. Don’t miss the sound when the lights go out

@Interslice I like your extra image, looks kinda more appropriate

Bonus points for skids! Looking forward to trying this track... Plenty of corners!

Interesting track, feels like a hill climb most of the time. Very wide (widest track I've raced so far) all the time, think that should be great for racing

 

[Shed 17]

I'm in please Andreas/Brian, I'll take the bonus points for this one now and hopefully not in the race!

 

[Interslice]

You're in Paul! Great pics!

 

[Kek700]

I’ll give this a go please Brian. @Interslice
Really looking forward to trying to get a good setup for this car.

Hi Ernie, you're in. Good luck with the setup clicks!

Oh dear, I would've loved to go for this challenge with you. I just wanted to sign up, when I recognized the German team is doing the first match against France at the same time.

Matches of our own team are always a happening at home, so I can only choose the better of two great drugs.

I've tested the combo a bit now. It's somehow a sick one. But I would've accepted the challenge for sure. Hope you have fun and bring the Mazdas up again in the future.

Will post a setup tomorrow, when I'm on the PC. I'm curious about other setups, too. I just can't get the car feel right...

That's a big game for sure! Nice it's before they both are qualified too.

Look forward to seeing your setup interpretation. I need to find some mid corner grip in the salzburgring setup for this track!

Here's my setup in two versions. They're both the same, only one of them with harder springs. The version with the harder spring settings feels a bit better to me but lap times were the same.

I recorded a lap live to show how I drive it.

It feels like a lot of grip comes from higher wing settings. I tried lower wings and it felt better when pushing the car through the long turn 5 but then the car slides much into turn 6 before it comes to grip again (also in other places).

Maybe we will postpone it because there are not enough participants at the moment

And it would be nice to have all the Group C regulars on board

 

[Taj Johal]

I'm not sure about the others, but I'm going to be out of action due to the footie for the next few weeks

I would like to declare Reik the winner if I may, in the absence of the race. The times he posted were out of this world, so that alone should secure him the honour of victory, could get nowhere near.
will eep trying, this time with his setup.

Hard to argue with that! Judging by his twitchy exits I'm not sure the setup will help us!

I posted a lap time?

However, thank you very much for the compliment.
