Premium
Win a one-year free RD Premium membership by racing in three very different, but equal cars!
- Porsche 935 '78 "Moby Dick". A race car based on the 911 Turbo from 1976, the most powerful 911 of all time.
- Praga R1, a full-carbon track car designed around a composite monocoque, inspired by endurance prototypes.
- Audi TT RS (VLN), a front wheel drive car with sequential gearbox, based on a five-cylinder TFSI engine.
The 20th percentile (so, "pretty good drivers") of all hotlaps with these cars have been analyzed and visualized in this chart:
They are all quite close together, and if you calculate the average, you'll get
100.07 seconds for the Audi,
99.96 seconds for the Praga, and
100.32 seconds for the Porsche.
All three are less than half a second apart for a combined track that has a laptime of two minutes.

Now the catch:
You need to drive each of the three cars at least once during the championship. Which car you use in any given race is up to you, but every car needs to be driven in at least one race!The dates and tracks:

The Wheel Of Fortune (aka win a free 1 year premium membership)
Win a one-year free RaceDepartment Premium membership...by driving in all four races until the finish line with at most one lap behind the winner. Also, always follow our golden rule - if you breach it, you're banned from the wheel.
After the last round, I'll start a short live stream with a wheel of fortune, and every eligible driver (except for myself) will be on it. The Wheel will decide the winner of the one-year RD Premium membership.
