*IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ*

Historic racing is famous for the gentleman racer era and that is the kind of atmosphere that I'd like to foster in the club. Please take time to read these web pages and try to get an understanding of what racing in this club is/should be all about.

Thanks

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 game and on Discord. Not doing so may result in you being kicked from the server if an admin cannot identify you as a premium member.

Little fun fact (in relation of the yesterday race).. just googeled the Lola t280, and coincidentally the first race Was also in Buenos Aires back in 1972.
Just sayin

I'm having problems putting the server up. Get Mod Manager does not like the Lola and gives an error message. This has happened in the past but @Daiman Patel fixed it and I can't remember how. @Ole Marius Myrvold any ideas?

Whilst we're on the topic of Ole, he has an event next Friday 11th Feb that some of you guys may be interested in.

You guys are in.

Sorry about the boring flyer chaps. What we need is somebody to provide a beautiful screenie for me to incorperate into a flyer.... such a shame that @Luca Ciarfella never seems to join us these days.

 

[Yves Larose]

@Denis Betty you'll be driving in style

Donwload link

To use liveries in game:
Choose a car in game(remember the number on the car). Click tuning/customize, and "create dir".
Find the created folder in: Steam\steamapps\common\rFactor 2\UserData\player\Settings\LolaT280\(number on car) Unpack zip-file. Paste all files there, and choose it on tuning/customize in game. Voila!

 

[Denis Betty]

She's a bute.
Thanks Yves.
