Sooooo given the fact that the first few events were only 2 or 3 cars and now we've gained quite a bit of momentum in attendance, I'm resetting the schedule to start with the first event that really had people racing which was the Mosport event. Last night, we had 10 cars racing with the top 5 qualifying with a second of eachother! For the actual race, the name of the game was consistency. Due to a track that was degrading quickly, it became quite greasy and only those who screwed up the least were able to pull away. James Bergeron walked away with huge gap on the rest of the field all due to running good times and keeping it on the tarmac the most! We hope to repeat that level of competition with the next event at the recently revised Barber Motorsports Park. From what I've been told by a sim racer that holds a record there in real life, that this version is spot on so come out and play while you're on lockdown!
Some things to remember:
- Remember to please use your real first and last name before joining the server. By default, rFactor2 will use your Steam account name, but you can edit your name next to your "Nickname" within rFactor2 in the upper right corner of the landing page where you select your option for single or multi-player.
- It is suggested that everyone log into the Discord channel for chat. Discord is a Skype type of application used by gamers. You'll need to install and enter the ApexSpeed.com Sim Racing room linked below.
- Please bind a key for "Push to talk" in Discord so that others don't have to hear unnecessary noise you broadcast to the room. We don't need to hear that you screwed up, your shifters clicking, your simulated wind noise, or that your dog wants to go outside.
- Now that the group is getting bigger, please refrain from unnecessary voice chat during qualifying and the race. Some of us can't pat their head and rub their belly at the same time, so please be considerate to that and only use voice chat during qualifying or racing for race related discussion like alerting people you're pulling out of the pit lane, a request to restart a race (like we had last night), or a huge pileup in T1, etc...
