Drivers, since this is a multi manufacturer event, please have your car choice in by 17:00 EST | 22:00 GMT | 09:00 AEDT to guarantee your car selection so we can finalize the server. Late sign up get what's left on a first come first served basis. Thank you 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

1. 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.
2. Play on the safe side and wait for the affected drivers, knowing 100% sure you will not get a ban.

Track limits

1. 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.

I can't freaking believe this ****... I lived worked on Long Island for 3 years (2013) and never heard of the place... I'm about three hours away, maybe I should take a drive out there. In any case, I will try out the "Lamborghini Huracan GT3" -

 

[Tobiman]

BMW, Plz.

 

[Pauli Ahonen]

Oh boy!
Couple of days ago i found this track and i have to say it's one of the best tracks in any sim.
What better place to start racing in Racedepartment than this.
I don't know which car is the best but i'll have a go in the Huracan because i have it bought. It also looks special.

Glad to have you. Yes it is a great track made by @LilSki and I'm sure he likes to see guys enjoying it. He has a couple of other awesome tracks as well Check 'em out

The Lambo may be the strongest car in the field in power to weight ratio. I've driven it many times. Just a note, you have to have all the DLC cars listed in the Race Post to be able to join the server

Although I am not a fan of this track with these modern GTs (looooove it with an old GT lady who still moves her hips with a twist), … but I will state this:

If The Birdman @Allan Ramsbottom is finally coming out again …

Edit: BP Some things just shouldn't be seen

… I will show up, … in a Porsche, preferably this one:

… but she will do fine as well if the old metal is frowned upon:

 

[JoelK]

In w/ ze German Go-kart

Ok, I'll give you that box if you really want it Please forgive me Porsche Gods as I too think this brand is the best in the world, but because I have the LOFT disease I cannot tame her, plus the Birdman @Allan Ramsbottom isn't here to give the Krazy German the grief he deserves so I MUST step in.

On a side note @JoelK has now given us a second nickname for her.....Ze Dirkwagon

 

[Bobby Pennington]

Let me see if I can get this one right this time

 

[Bobby Pennington]

Ok Hooligans, the list is updated and as soon as the Server update is done and we get the go ahead, we'll be putting the practice server back up

In the meantime you can use these setting at home for practice:

• Use a Fast Track
• Time of Day - 15:00. May change by 30 minutes or so. Depends on Sun angle at the end of 1 hour.
  
• Weather - Mid Clear
• Ambient Temp - 24 degrees + or - 2 degrees. The server controls this so as to not give Race Hosts and unfair advantage.
  
• Wind Speed - 4 - 17 KPH, direction 220 degrees

I use Content Manager to set these for myself at home. If you don't have it, I'm not sure how much the regular AC GUI will let you control.
