Drivers, since this is a Multi Manufacturer Multi Class event, please have your car choice in by 17:00 EST | 22:00 GMT Friday 26 January to guarantee your car selection so we can finalize the practice server for Saturday morning and the race server for later that day. Late signup's get what's left on a first come first served basis. Thank you for understanding.

There will be a drivers meeting after official practice to make sure we're all on the same page.

There will be BoP. I will post the settings here and in the race thread as soon as I finalize them. Then I'll put the practice server up. I hope to have this done by Tuesday at the latest.

This is your event to enjoy and it's our pleasure to try and provide you with a little something new and special, but the success of this growing into more events depends on all of us handling ourselves professionally since Multi Class can be ugly if we don't cooperate and work together.

LMP Drivers: Please make sure to have your headlights on so it's easy for the GT2 drivers to identify you. Please take care and patience when and where you pass especially if two GT2 cars are fighting for position. They will allow you to pass asap. NO RAGE QUITTING.
GT2/E Drivers: Please take care to not have your headlights on. Only the LMP cars should have them on so they can be easily identified in our mirrors. The LMP cars are much faster, so please do not try and race them to prolong the inevitable pass that they WILL make. Just hold your line and speed.
You must obey BLUE FLAGS. Those of us in this class will be lapped, I'm sure, by the LMP cars and probably more than once.
If you're battling for position with another GT2 car, it is the LMP cars responsibility to make the pass in a safe way and your responsibility to give them adequate room when they do. Just hold your racing line. They have the power and grip to just fly by. NO RAGE QUITTING.
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.

 

[Dirk Steffen]

Hey I would really love to race a Porsche 911 RSR in this one. Please sign me up Bobby.

 

[Ronnie Böhme]

I've done several WEC races in GT Cars and I'd love to try an LMP this time. I'll take the Porsche 919 Hybrid 2015

 

[Pauli Ahonen]

Yes... This is going to be interesting. I haven't driven the LMP's much because they don't seem to be lively enough to be that fun against the clock or AI. But this is what they are for.

For me please.

 

[Lum]

Oh dear, should I dare?... It seems way over my head... I'll think about it a couple of hours...

 

[Andreas Knöpke]

Porsche 911 RSR please.
