Hi Chris, please add me to the field. Regards, Michael

Trox · Feb 28, 2023

In! But please remove the bullseye from my car livery it ain't funny

RicardoJorge92 · Feb 28, 2023

Tentatively in!
I'll practice for it, but have a work situation next Monday, so I might not make it. Fingers crossed.
I only watched a couple of videos of the track and laped it blind in hotlap mode when I bought the DLC at the end of last year. Going to be an interesting one for me.

McFlunch · Mar 1, 2023

I'm in ! Just did some laps with @Trox tonight on practice server and discovered the track

It's pretty cool, and it's wide so there's space to overtake

Rain level is at 0 but Weather randomness is at 4. So this means it can't rain but clouds and sun will alternate ? Or it might rain ? (I managed to do 1:43.800 with the sun, but if it rains I'm afraid it will be 1:83.400 for me

)

Hello all. I've been racing online for a while now and I just found this on RD. It would be nice to find some folks who want to race clean and not just shunt you out of the way to "win on the first turn". It seems there aren't many races left this season (?), but sign me up!

So with the cloud level and weather randomness we might see rain. The rain setting has two settings. With weather randomness off it sets the static rain level. With randomness on it sets the expected level of rain but as in real life this can change.

Welcome Walt, I've added you to the entry list. The practice server is live. Just search for RaceDepartment and the password is the same as the race entry password linked in the first post

SwannyUK · Mar 1, 2023

Oh, if you join the practice server and it's dark / wrong time just leave and re-enter and it should sort itself out.

Trox · Mar 1, 2023

It actually rained on one of the 30min sessions last night, going to be interesting

"Excellent!" haha. I'll look fot it tonight after work. Thanks!

Just a thought - if anyone fancies a group practice session with discord chat let me know. Might be helpful for anyone wanting to ask questions about setup, track tips, feedback on driving etc and also good just to have a chat.

I'll try to be there later tonight. Probably not before 21h30, though.
