In from me, hopefully with a nice sized grid!

 

[Nascentes]

Count me in, Michael!

Hi Michael,

Just some constructive feedback. If it’s really an event for rookies (in the sense of encouraging new drivers to either sim racing or ACC, rather than just non premium members), then a 50 minute race with pit stops (and all that entails) plus chance of rain is perhaps a bit of a baptism of fire!

Hi Andrew, good point. I will make the race easier for rookies.

Done

Sign me up please Micheal !

If the field size is >1 I suggest to race.

Sad, not sure about the reasons.
I thought we had a solid driver base in the RD ACC "Club" with around 8-10, but it looks like that ACC, beside other reasons, is not more that interesting.

Myself is undecided if i'll be there tonight. Its NFL playoff time and the Steelers-Bills game was postboned from yesterday to tonight. That is some call it quality time that i do with my son, so not sure if i make it tonight. Even more if we have such a low filled grid.

 

[Nascentes]

It looks like ACC lost it's appeal to many. I see a lot of people moving to rF2, Automobilista 2 and even to AC. I think it's time to have a break and see if people want to get back once the GT2 are here.

Anyway, If someone else wants to race today, I'll join with the Aston V12 just to hear that glorious sound. Or go to AC and to some trackday fun at the Nords

 

[mklengel]

Your message is clear - cancel the race. I‘ll wait 3 h from now on and if the number of drivers doesn’t increase I will cancel the race. I will setup the next race as usual - let‘s see what will happen.

Race is cancelled :-(
