The club rules page is not available to non-premium users, and I assume it includes rules for the race.

P.S. I hope this and the GT4 race don't use the real-world time as the in-game race start time.

Yes I was notified on that and have sent every freemium a PM with the rules.

Hi everybody, I would like to participate but I am still so new.
Just trying to get installed car radar and the other aplications.

Lupo grigio · Nov 27, 2022

Vorrei provare questo per favore.

Douglas Aird · Nov 27, 2022

To the rookies, if you have any questions that you don't want to ask on the forum then PM me and I will do my best to answer. I was a rookie myself 18 months ago so I am happy to help the start of your journey.

Hi Massimo,

I've used google translate and I understand that you want to participate.
Great that you want to join but please use english next time.
I'll send you a PM.

Do I understand it right that assists are forbidden in this race? Namely ABS.

No if it's factory supplied it will be available. And it is for the Mazda. Same for traction control. But stability control isn't activated.
We have automatic clutch enabled because not everyone has a clutch pedal.

Oh, whew, I almost managed to actually learn to brake properly. But—not today.

aasasd · Nov 27, 2022

Anyway, I think I'm ready to try my hand at the race, if HF2000 doesn't have objections.

Let's see what kind of a setup could have a chance of improving my driving.

Count me in Please.

Interslice · Nov 28, 2022

In please Han! I'll take a 787b

Mutzz · Nov 28, 2022

I would like to participate as well.

Dzul · Nov 28, 2022

Wow, the event is looking good with so many new drivers!

Great to have you everyone!

Like Han and Doug previously said, don't worry too much about "going fast" but rather focus on building up experience and becoming consistent... speed will follow naturally. BTW, the default setup of the MX5 Cup is pretty good on the A1... ehm, sorry, Red Bull Ring.

I also started racing online years ago on RD's Rookie Events, glad to see them back! Looking forward to meet you on track...

As Brian has, out of the kindness of his heart, decided to greatly handicap himself in the most selfless way by driving the Mazda 787b

I thought I would, like Brian, in a most selfless way help Fulvio achieve true stardom, this I have done with great inconvenience to myself by preparing a full race Mazda for this race.
Which I know he would be delighted to drive.

The lengths I will go to help my fellow sim racers, is most impressive.

I was thinking that perhaps he would appreciate an Alfa Romeo 12C-37 or something similar. Let's see him try getting around a crowd of Mazdas after tiptoeing through Remus and Schlossgold.

Edit: oops sorry forgot I have another race tomorrow

Have fun guys!

I'm sorry Allan, every driver (however rookie) who is faster than me, will get the MX5 ND street version. I will send a PM with the password. Make sure you select the ND.
