Rules

55 minute practice session starting after server opens, then the server auto transitions to a 15 minute quali session then a 50 minutes race. I cannot control when it does so be there or be square.

ToD will be set to whatever I like on the day of the event, and I like day/night transitions with time accel x6 so there will be night races so bind your headlights. Do note that LMU supports auto headlights which should be forced on if you don't have a headlight bind.

Weather should be dry for most of the series, though I might throw in some rain for boring tracks like Bahrain.

Don't drive like an idiot, and pay attention to the flags.

Don't flip Marko Tulska. Unless it's Flip Marko Tulska Day or if flipping him would be really funny.

Restart Procedure

RaceControl doesn't support restarting the race unlike previous GT3 iterations so drive with some level of care in the first lap or you will be called a stupid bitch.

Car Choice

No limits. Pick whatever car you want and feel free to change cars every round. Do note that only the McLaren, AMG and Mustang are free.

Track Limits

In game track limits are set to relaxed and there are plenty incident points, but if you extend the track too much and cause a wreck you're a stupid bitch.

Skins Guideline

  • Subscribe to RaceControl Pro here or find an RC Pro subbed friend with still free team slots :)
  • Create your team in game LMU Support or join the team your friend made for you
  • Go to liveries in team management, follow the instructions to find the templates on your PC
  • Follow the instructions on the LMU Support Page to create your livery, but if you're based and familiar with rFactor 2 it will not be too foreign
  • Apply livery to car and upload it, or ask your team leader to do it

Extra Stuff

- Do you want to be at least decent at racing? Are you shit? Are you new to multiplayer racing games and you don't think you're shit? Please read How to Practice and Finish Well.

- Presence on Mumble is not mandatory, but encouraged. Especially if you want to hear dumb chatter and the occasional funny rage, or if your game shits the bed it's much easier to get help with it quickly that way.

- While the series is open for anyone to join, please practice until you feel comfortable around the track before joining the race.

- These cars use varying amounts of ABS and TCS in real life. Do not be ashamed to activate them if you are struggling.
