Welcome to the RD Racing Club.
After a couple of racetracks it's time for something not completely different.
Two weeks ago we were at the northern arctic circle and this week all the to the other side of the world: New Zealand. The Wellington 500 was a 500 km street race for touring cars which took place at the harbor of the capital.
SITUATIONAL AWARENESS is essential for clean and respectful driving in our community. You should therefore use tools like Helicorsa or CarRadar and CrewChief. The links for these apps are on the bottom of this post.
DISCORD. It's important that you also join us during the event on Discord for additional information and instructions. Link is below.

If you don't have an Emperor account yet, ask for one by posting in this thread (only for premium members).
Especially the new and inexperienced drivers are recommended to participate. There are a lot of learning opportunities but without the intensity and stress of the GT3/4 cars or the endurance multiclass cars. It's also good step up for those kind of events.
