I am from the US. Do I need to sign up for the US start time? Or is it fine to pick one of the others. I searched out this question and couldn't find an answer. I work nights so US times would rarely work out for me. EU is better. Also, how long do these rallies typically take? I may only have a short window of time I'd be able to run.
Welcome to our Rally Club Paul, always good to have some more USA guys aboard.
You are free to join any of the Sessions listed, not just the US one. We have listed one Session in each of EU, US, and OC to cover the major world timezones, but members are free to join the one that suits them best. Drivers indicate which one they plan to join so that we know which Sessions to creaste on the Server for them.
If none of the Sessions listed are suitable, we accept requests for "special" times, provided that they are within the Monday / Tuesday periods. Only downside to a "special" session, is that you may be a bit lonely as others may not be in that Session with you.
So, if you need a "special" Session, just let us know on sign-up, and we will usually agree.
The Total Rally time can vary a bit depending on the Stages used, but usually they are completed in about 1 hour. It can depend on how long you wait between Stages, you can jump straight through them as soon as you finish the previous Stage, or some people "take a break" between Stages if time permits.
There is also a 15 min Countdown time between the nominated Start time and the 1st Stage being available to drive.
Hope this helps.
