    Just setting up a Fun Run Series whilst we wait for Season 15 to start

    Race 1 - Ford Escort at Vallelunga
    Content is Kunos

    Race Will be Monday 9th April - Will have a Monday break for Easter Monday if people are away
    Will have 2x 15 lap races, second race will go reverse grid.
    Should roughly be 20min a race
    I'll make sure reverse grid works and also that random's can't join once we are racing as I'll still have it open to Public (MR-A only)

    Race 2 - Abarth Assetto Corsa at Watkins Glen
    Car is AC
    Track can be gotten here - https://www.dropbox.com/s/ub96kq59apgapq4/lilski_watkins_glen_0.7.zip?dl=0

    Race Will be Monday 16th April
    Will have one 20 lap race - forced PIT, any time after lap 2 and before lap 19 if you don't you're disqualified at the end.
    Should roughly be 40min a race
    Open to Public (MR-A only)

    Races will be popped into a stracker championship, located here: http://rooz.simracer.me:50041/championship

    Seasoned racers will know the drill, but for those new to our fine forum, please read the Code of Conduct and Racers Guide, both good reads and worth a second look if it's been a while.
    The plan will be to have the rooms open from 7.30pm AEST (East Coast is all back on the same time again) and to start qualifying at 8pm. There will be 10-15 minutes of qualifying depending on the length of the track, and then into the race, usually around 45 minutes.

    More races info to follow...
    Also if you have a car/track combo please suggest it!
    ie - New V8SC 2018v1 is out and I wouldn't mind giving that one a run around Laguna Seca

    That certainly would be a giggle! Can you share a good mod link of the reliant?

    It’s essentially the same as the F2004 just a lot slower in every way.

    That's why i think it will be fun, more time to react and not crash

    what Godzilla said, really similar to the F2004, so we might wait a few weeks ... Though I wouldn't mind seeing if the setup stuff I've learnt on the F2004 can be used on the Taatus...
    Still in saying that, I've already tweaked my Escort setup and found about a second more pace out of it from my previous PB so the F2004 season is already showing benefits sooner than I expected. :D
