AC GT3 @ Thomson Road - Sunday 12th July 2020

[Chris Down]

by Chris Down, link​

What's that I hear? Is it the distant rumble of GT3 cars on a vintage circuit? After the roaring success of the Group C cars at Feldbergring, how could I resist the urge to run GT3s at another of @Fat-Alfie's classic tracks: Thomson Road in Singapore. With plenty of twists and turns that can be taken flat out in a GT3 car, this is sure to be one to remember.

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.

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 teamspeak. Not doing so may result in you being kicked from the server if an admin cannot identify you as a premium member.
