Rules:
If you have not entered the server and driven a few laps with fellow drivers before we go to qualifying you are to late for that session. Please think of your fellow drivers and get out on track with them, watch how they drive, you can't race with guys you have not seen drive.
We ALL brake a little differently and drive the corners differently, get used to how they drive and then we can all race more safely.
If you drop out of the server during qualifying you can return.

This is being held in our Club, using Club Rules, and should be driven in that spirit.

Signing up

Golden Rule

Be 100% sure it's not his fault and just carry on like nothing happened and take the risk of being banned for 30 days.
Play on the safe side and wait for the affected drivers, knowing 100% sure you will not get a ban.

Tell you what, for relatively modest numbers, that was a belter of a night

I had some properly great racing last night - real nose-to-tail stuff with pretty much everyone at some point.

Welcome to @Bidule hope you enjoyed it

Denis Betty · Oct 25, 2017

Yep, great fun last night.
Really nice combo.

Denis Betty · Oct 25, 2017

I'm in.

Denis Betty · Oct 25, 2017

OK Victor, I'll be joining too.

Rupe Wilson · Oct 25, 2017

Apart from my wheel coming loose from the base on my t500 in the first race so had to slow to correct this,
but had some great fun battles whilst i was at full speed..
Race 2 the same..had super fun racing with a pack, im glad i slowed and joined the pack for some fun again. i was no quicker just got a gap, so slowing and having fun was a much better idea..

the lap times were all real close and with a good slipsteam you got a nice boost of speed...

the position i finish is irrelevant when i have this much fun driving wheel to wheel

Hi guys,

Just a little reminder that Summertime ends at 2am this Sunday, 29th October. What this means is that all RD EU events from this Sunday onward will now start at 19:00 GMT instead of 18:00 GMT.

For those that are not on GMT itself, remember that you can set an additional clock in Windows to keep track of other time zones. You never need to miss another RD event again!

Cats are always good

The automobilista racing club does cats on a Monday night too. I’ve been racing there occasionally. Good fun.

Another cracking night in the Cats on Thursday night
Great combo with this version of the track,
super racing and the lap times are getting closer,
Once again its all about how you drive these cars,
And as i have heard a few times now ...

Its not how late you get on the brakes but how early you can get on the gas with these cars

and its so true in theses cars. I was a second a drift but after 2 laps watching Stuart i knew where i could make up ground. it really pays to look at other drivers lapping especially when in the same car.. look at the lines the gears and the corner speed, and these cars asked to be thrashed in a straight line, just be gentle in the corners at lower speeds, there you have to as smooth as possible.. (harder said than done).

Cant wait for this next instalment, as i do look forward to them.
