RaceDepartment.com US GT3 Practice #15 server is up and running.You will need the ACNC No Cuts Tracks Mod v1.0 which you can (download here)

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

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'd be in with the GT-R, but Bobby hate to ask this out in public (not sure it's the best route also):

Why the ACNC mod mandatory for this race and only in the US Club? I don't see the mod being used on other events, so I'm wondering why? Is it being experimented for future use in all events around the AC Club?

No problem asking in public. We use it, Rasmus uses it, but we can't use it for "social" events. We'll start using it on other nights as well.

So are you in?

Ok a Ferrari it is.

Yes they can be turned off. It's left up to the driver. There is no stability control though.,
