I think you can join every race apart from the events which take place at the Rockingham track.

To join you just have to join the server on time. You can find the password for the server below this chatbox.

Good luck!

This was my first race in a GT car and also on Aston North. I kept losing the rear end, which lost me loads of time at the end of turn one. Annoying because I thought I had sorted all that in my offline practicing. I was happy to get through to the end of the race without accruing any damage though! Enjoying racing in my first league, hopefully will up my pace with practice

Here's a few screen shots of some stuff starring me.

Approaching Turn 4 through the dirt thrown up by Postal going on the grass.

I pull left to avoid Postal and clip the front of BHAtmack (sorry about that

)

I end up in the sand and BHAtmack after braking for me gets rear ended and shunted across track into the wall by KrzychOo

Later in the race, I lose my rear end at turn one just as pmw comes to lap me. Thankfully no crash but I lose a place to BHAtmack

Ending up on the grass in my final mistake of the race.

Hope you had a nice race! Here is mine in pictures:

Trying to find a gap to pass Calin

Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
And another one gone, and another one gone
Another one bites the dust
Hey, I'm gonna get you too
Another one bites the dust

Finally got by Calin...

...only to give it away in the next turn.

Having another close look a few laps later

Calin is wondering wheter Mazda is tending to start a career in rally racing. Duck Tape in the background sees an opportunity to pass.

Calin breaks under the pressure of The Duck

Chasing another car, this time the dark blue FZR

Sandwiched by Team Cola Lenker

The top 3 close together after Cem Dalda made his pitstop

An overcorrected slide caused by putting one wheel in the dirt. As seen from the spectators point of view.

Full Attack!

Taking a narrow line around the hairpin

Finally passed Duck Tape in the last lap

A dark blue monster filled up the mirrors. Who would not be disorientated?

Closest finish for me in years!

Great Pics and story line by Englishlord and Mazda... Maybe bedtime reading for my grandchildren tonight!
Thanks for the great race and recap.

Nice

Lots of pictures and the Rieti skin... a bit modified

... looks great
This might be a good idea having a post race thread with the most significant pictures

from one's point of view

nice reads and pictures.

englishlord, maybe in race the car was harder to drive because during offline practice you used tire warmer?

hehe, we found enough ways to get in each other ways in that part of track. Even without you and Ducktape sneaking through the middle

Nah, I didn't use the warmer, it was my dodgy driving!

Ding dong. I didn't even realize that I had no 3% air-restriction. I was testing all setups I had, and forgot to put restriction when I found a good setup.. And still I was really slow
