We are currently somewhat low on drivers and could use some more before this date.
You can find all the information you need to know in the social group.

I have joined.

 

[ChaddingtonB]

What are the car rules? anything under 98HP?

 

[aceboy127]

delete.

 

[ChaddingtonB]

can we use the same car for all races?

 

[aceboy127]

can we use the same car for all races?

Yes

 

[ID_racing]

Im sorry I have gotten the timezones all wrong. The races begin at 2 or 3 in the morning here in Denmark. So I have to pass.

 

[aceboy127]

We are trying to get a european championship that starts earlier, so you could still do it.

 

[WIL9731]

Hi is the euro league still going ahead ? Not heard much about it lately .

 

[ID_racing]

We are trying to get a european championship that starts earlier, so you could still do it.

In that case I´m in..again..

 

[Hedi]

I'd love to join if you do a series that start around the same hours but GMT, any idea when that will start?

 

[aceboy127]

The euro league is starting to gain lots of interest. I am in charge of the american and european league, so if you have questions just send me a message.

 

[aceboy127]

Still could use a few drivers in the European League and the American League.
Any questions just ask.

 

[aceboy127]

Check the social group

 

[aceboy127]

Looking for more dedicated members for both championships, check the social group for more information

I was thinking about such a series myself earlier.

I reckon it would be a good introduction to online racing. I'd be up for a euro series....

 

[ID_racing]

Still up for a euro series too.

 

[Thaddaeus]

up for euro events. us times are to early for me

I'm new to online racing too.
And the restrictions in this seem to be well thought out. All the acceptable cars on the list are generally competitive with each other. I've been collecting most of these cars for a little while now... and so now I've been tuning them up & trying them out. Seems like where one has a weakness it's another car's strength & visea versa.

I've only had trouble tuning the spitfire, and trouble driving it. Oddly it seems to behave better on some tracks than others.

 

[aceboy127]

bump.

 

[watermelon punch]

lots o' fun

 

[watermelon punch]

American division:

Next up is Daytona next week.
The more the merrier.

 

[aceboy127]

Season One of the Low HP league is completed. We will most likely be doing some testing during the summer along with some "for fun" races.
Season Two starts this fall, so join up for some good, clean, and fun racing.

 

[watermelon punch]

The Low HP League races are the most fun I've been involved with.
And some of us are hoping to have some inbetween season races... Maybe even on some rally tracks!

Many competitive cars to choose from & tune, to suit your preferences, driving style, & experience.
The competition is fair, the races realistic involving damage & pit strategy, promoting clean & exciting races where it's usually very uncertain & sometimes quite surprising, what the finishing order might wind up to be.
Variety of tracks... including tight courses and drafting battle races.
The host is sensible, attentive, and organized.
And many members are regular & enthusiastically competitive.
Friendly competition, and leisure time well spent.

Oh... and the finishes are at times quite close:

American Division Race #9 @ Daytona Super Speedway.

Small cars can be big fun.

These events are also posted in the GTP Calendar

 

[aceboy127]

We could still use some active members in the league. We have a fair amount of drivers singed up for each league currently, but could use a few more.
European League: 5 drivers signed up
American League: 9 drivers signed up

 

[flimbo84]

What nights and time does the Euro league run? I'm interested in joining.

 

[aceboy127]

Actually the GTP Calender might be a better way to figure out times.

 

[watermelon punch]
