Hi everybody!

Welcome to 2024 edition of Rally Finland. Since June 2022, Rally has switched from GTSPORT to GT7.
But when I learnt that GTSPORT would shut down online servers, I decided that the rally in GTSPORT will be back for December and January with 2 rallies each.
The purpose of those rallyes is to give GTSPORT a proper send-off.

I'm looking forward to see you on the track! :cheers:

2.2.6- All drivers, who had started the “Race Event” in order to set the best lap time for each special stage, must save the replay, so the Series Organizers can add the lap times.

2.2.8- During a Rally event, a specific number of laps will be given to a rally event and will be acting as a Special Stages.

2.2.9- To be classified, a driver must complete the required number laps for each rally.

2.2.11- The drivers, who already have done their runs and submitted their lap times, are not allowed to submit new lap times. Doing that will result a warning or a penalty, depending of how many positions you have gained.

2.2.12- The rally Rounds lap times must be done on Racing Alone (1 by 1), to prevent a Driver from ruining other driver's lap times: that way would be a 2nd driver interference and a 2nd driver interference is not allowed for the rallies! The mode will be in “Race” Mode.

I'm very new but would love to try one of my cars/trucks. Been looking for any online group that plays. I've had GT7 (PS4), controller for less than a month. Now, I Reiterate, I'm not very good. But I'm also old enough to know how to drive, and do it clean.
