Welcome to the RD Racing Club.
After the great race on Spa where finally the Abarth was clearly the fastest car, we're now re-entering Mazda territory in the Dutch dunes of Zandvoort.
As I'm not participating myself I can give you some tips for this event.
It's hard to overtake here so for the MX5 drivers it's very important to qualify in front of the Abarths for the first stint. So practice will pay off.
Tyre wear on Zandvoort is always a problem so the Abarths will probably have a long pitstop with tyre change. Mazda drivers better not do their pitstop before the Abarths do.
It's a multiclass and for some more excitement and action we bend the rules a bit: BLUE FLAGS CAN BE IGNORED IF THE LAPPING CAR IS FROM A DIFFERENT CLASS!
IF THE KNOWN S.GP BUG APPEARS (all cars disappear when the lights go out), please don't do anything. The host will restart the session in a few minutes. DO NOT LEAVE THE GAME.
I'm on holiday and if Brian or Markus are not able to attend, there will not be a host for this event. I expect everyone to drive as clean and respectful as always. If there's a severe incident that needs attention of a staff member please save and provide the replay. I will have a look when I'm back.

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.
