rFactor/GTR2 Race Format

General

Races are held every Thursday night during the year, with the exception of holidays like Easter, US Thanksgiving, Christmas. Often, non-points races are scheduled on these dates for those who would like to race, check the Complete Schedule for a list of all events.

We run two divisions on alternate weeks. Generally speaking, if you race in the rFactor/GTR2 division only, then you race every second week.

Official qualifying begins at 7:15 p.m. E.S.T. (Eastern Standard Time) and runs from 20 minutes only.

The aim of The Regulars race night is to be completely finished racing by 9:00 pm E.S.T.

All races will be held on a combination of the original tracks that came with the purchase of the simm and the add-on (third party) road circuits which are available free on the internet.

Drivers are encouraged to meet before & after the event in the designated chat room. The race password will be given in the chat prior to the event. For rFactor/GTR2 race nights, we will be using the Chat facility in the game.

If necessary, Alternate drivers will be selected to fill any vacancies in the race list. Alternate drivers must be in the designated chat room by 7:05 pm EST on race night in order to be selected for the race. Alternate drivers will receive points and virtual prize money.
