Since this is a multi manufacturer event please make sure you are signed up with the car of your choice by Friday September 15th 17:00 EDT (21:00 GMT) or you may have to settle for whatever is left. You DON'T want to be that guy. Late sign ups will have to take what is left. Thanks for understanding.

A message to all Drivers

If you run off track, you have to check and see that its clear before you re-enter the track. Do not just keep the gas pinned and pull back on track.
When entering the track from the pits stay off the racing line until you are up to speed and do not race on your out lap. Let other drivers by in qualifying.
On re-entering the track stay off the racing line until you are up to race speed and do not block any fast approaching car. Remember, you've made the mistake by going off so let them by cleanly.

Golden Rule

Be 100% sure it's not your 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.

Track limits

No more than 2 wheels over the white/yellow line without a complete lift of the gas please if it is safe to do so.
You will be penalized if you break our rules

Note: Please use your full real name in teamspeak. Not doing so may result in you being kicked from the server if an admin cannot identify you as a premium member.

@Bobby Pennington The track has been updated, you may want to update the OP

Dirk Steffen · Sep 10, 2017

Hey Bobby - remember the talk we had about the track and performance on lower end computers?
It turns out I was not the only one seeing these issues but a few others who posted in the support thread of the mod track. The issues I described to you were related to the track and Mitja is very hard and superfast at work, having already updated the track twice since.

First users have already reported performance improvements and Mitja describes performance similar to Kunos Barcelona track according to his own tests - sounds very promising and I hope this solves any performance issues people were seeing.

Not sure if I can sign up just yet - will be a late comer I think.

Nicolas Redman · Sep 10, 2017

I will join. Not sure about the car choice yet.

Mitja Bonca · Sep 10, 2017

Just for into, use the latest 0.92, its much more optimized. thx

Yea Dirk, Mitja is hard at it and has notified me of the changes. I will be updating the server as soon as I can so we can all get the up to date version and test it out on the practice server. Thanks for the heads up. I sure hope this works for you man.
