Series Details:

This series will revolve around a virtual “career path."

You’ll start off your career driving one of the Gran Turismo Go Karts.  You’ll finish your career driving a Formula 1 car. You’ll drive various other levels of cars along the way.

Each race will feature a different “class” of cars, (ie Go Kart, Gr1, Gr2, Gr3, Gr4, #RoadCar, FF, FR, MR, etc etc.)

All races will be BoP with NO TUNING. 

You choose your car from the appropriate class listed for that specific race. 

This series will last for 10 races; 1 per week.

​Each race should last about 45-60 minutes.

The lobby will open at 8:30pm ET for practice. Qualifying will begin at 9:30pm sharp!

At 9:30pm, I will reset the track and qualifying will begin. Qualifying will last for 15 minutes.

At the end of the 15 minute qualifying period, I will give everyone 2 minutes to make any tire changes that may be needed.

After that, the race begins!

To make things more realistic, weather will be set to random and damage will be set to light.

Keep your eyes open for various bonus point opportunities as we progress through the series.

​
