    It's not bad, but I'm aiming for 15 drivers minimum to balance the prizemoney that SRO is putting up and your own contribution that add's to the prizepot.
    But true, it could be done with 12 in theory :)

    How ever, 8 drivers for Assetto Corsa GT Legends is too low. We absolutely need more there.

    This looks incredibly interesing. I'm downloading the mod and if I like it, you can count me in. You'll hear from me soon! ;)

    Got here through the S397 forums, by the way.

    I have a few questions:
    1. How will cars be assigned? Do the organizers pick a car for everyone or do we have free choice? Do I need to provide a livery of my own? Where can I find templates if the latter is "yes"?
    2. There are differences in setup options. Is car performance based on history or have the cars been equalized in the mod? This may affect the choices people makes (like everyone will pick Ferrari, Williams, Renault, Ligier or maybe a Lotus)
    3. Apart from the €5 donation, how do I sign up?

    Answers:
    1. You have a free choise of all cars for each race. So you can change every race if you like. It's the points that you get that count.
    2. This is not a league edition version of the mod (there is no LE yet as far as I know) . Some cars are faster then others and some are more stable then others. Not all have equal skill, so some guys are more happy with a stable car over raw speed and visa versa. Some cars are more in the middle of the spectrum like the Williams.

    Thanks.

    Do I understand correctly that we will be using the original skinpack provided with the mod, rather than self-made liveries?

    Yes, we will use the original skinpack. We'll keep it nice and simple. I like racing the original skins aswell. Takes me back in time LOL :)

    Transfered the €5.

    Do we have the tracks for download anywhere?

    Can I run an ALT skin if I make one. If so, is a template available?

    You can contact Rob Milliken about adding skins, but I think you will be the only one with a custum skin.
    I don't think people are interested in downloading a custum skinpack if you are the only one having one.
    Are there any more people that would like to run their custum skin?

    Don't forget to sign up so we'll have a larger field. The more are in, the more will come.

    I'm not looking to push anyone into a skinpack. rFactor 2 has the option to add an ALT to an existing skin, which I can then run on a car.

    Oh right. By all means, go for it :) Still, if there are more people who like to run a costum skin, let me know. No problem for me.

    It's now 15 as we speak :). But ... I know that a few guys have not payed the 5 euro's contribution yet. Unfortunately, I would have to take those people out when the series starts.
    So, if anyone was holding back to see if the series would become official, they can contribute now :).

    Once again for those, you're not paying to race, you're contributing to the overall prize money.
    And, with prizes for the first 10 places, you have a VERY good change to win your money back and then some.

    John, are there other ways to transfer money to you? Instead of using paypal? Michal Mazurek needs help in this department, can you help?
