AMS2 Rookies' Event | Classic Mini Cooper | Silverstone National | Wednesday 30th November

[Redvaliant]

Welcome to the RD Racing Club.
This Wednesday's Rookie Race is open to all RD members.

​

Are you new to simracing? Is Online Racing a step you haven't braved yet? Do you fear making mistakes or getting in other people's way on track? Well guess what, Rookie Nights are aimed at you - people new to simracing, or people wary of the wilds of public servers. We want to give you a place to experience the wonderful joy of racing other simracers, people who share your passion and who give clean and respectful racing the highest priority.

​

To ease you into racing here at RD, we have chosen the fantastic Mini Cooper and twinned it with the short National layout of Silverstone - a very drivable combo. To take part, just sign up in the thread below, and a password will be sent along with any info you may need to get started.

[Norman Bruce]

Sign me in for this please, looks good for a top ten finish......so far

 

[Redvaliant]

Welcome Norman. Odds are looking good.

 

[Redvaliant]

I've had a question regarding the Mini's handling and the default setup. Yes, it is very lift-oversteery and can be a bit of a handful. You really need to be back on the throttle hard to counter the oversteer in corners, but it always comes back. I will reinstate the setup options for this race, and we can have a chat in Discord with any adjustments that work in taming the wee car's twitchiness

 

[max1966i]

Let me at it...........IN

 

[newbert]

Change in my schedule. I won't be able to make this after all. Sorry.
