    Last night I've tried the oval ranked race...
    Such a fun! I really enjoyed...looks easy but isn't!
    Tirewear and fuel usage are upscaled...you have to take care both of them!

    Yes, for the 15 minute race we have to find a line that is better for the tires and the fuel you can barely finish the race but that isn't how the race on Wednesday will be driven when you will have to pit and drive at max speed. I manage to save tires in my run by staying high in the corners for 1/2 of the race, I ran out of fuel a 1/2 lap before the finish line. I had not made a setup so the wing was a drag and toe was to.

    I had no setup as well... I just turned up the "engine rev. limit" and turned down the engine fuel mixture... I had 4 liter when I crossed the finish line.

    Sorry for the time-out and not showing up, other life things happen. Okay, I will get the leader boards up to date this week. And I have some ideas and will need some drivers for testing.:)
    I will be looking for sponsors this year for clothing and stuff to be available for SRO drivers in Official Sponsored ESports Expo Partnered with RaceRoom Racing Entertainment. I do not expect Expos will not be so accessible this this year with Covid build v19.100,200,500 running about. So lets see if we can find some one to sponsor shirts for us. lets discuss about this in the near future for virtual competitions.

    R3E eSports News
    RaceRoom Racing Experience (R3E) recently overhauled its multiplayer system, which likely explains the challenges with eSports event setup. The new layout features a revamped ranked UI with easy race registration, smart matchmaking splits, daily/weekly races, and special events.

    Key Changes
    RaceRoom introduced a fresh multiplayer landing page dividing events into daily sprints, feature races, weekly races, and special events, plus time attack modes. This rolled out around September-October 2025, with ongoing ranked schedule updates like free-to-play combos (e.g., Mercedes-AMG GT3 at Dubai). Official eSports like ADAC GT Masters and DTM continue but tie into this new structure.

    Setup Tips
    Access the new ranked menu directly in-game for event creation or joining, focus on registering via the updated UI for automatic matchmaking. Check the official RaceRoom site for competitions and news on championships. Communities like Reddit's r/RRRE discuss workarounds for server stability and menus.

    Working on it, stay tune for news updates in the coming days.

    I'll be trying this for the first time later today, this is where the eSports action supposedly really happens :confused:. I'll learn best by running the gauntlet and experiencing the biggest mistakes I can make going in with little knowledge of how it works.

    I’ve set up a Discord channel for the team, and we can use the voice channel there. I’m using Discord because I plan to connect the RR Discord Server to our Discord team's server. I’m still figuring out how to do that , it might require installing an add-on.

    I found out that we're no longer allowed to post events directly on the R3E Discord, but we can share videos of replay races, whether they’re race events or leaderboard competitions. So, my idea is this: if you have recording enabled and you set the fastest time in our leaderboard challenge, I could use your fastest lap replay to create a video to post in their Discord’s video channel, including our team promotion. ;)

    Here is a draft of what the team videos could look like. If there are any changes, what would you suggest?

    Looks good enough to me Doug. Just a couple of questions:
    1. Is there a size limit on the replay file i.e. high-res will create a much bigger filesize?
    2. How can interested members create the picture-in-picture replay as you have done, or is that something you will do after submission?

    #1 The file size can vary. I used the 1080p setting in the editor to save the video, while my game is set to 3K. I think that’s where I went wrong. I’ve noticed that when the video plays full screen on my monitor (which is above 1080p), it looks blurry. I don’t think the game, OBS, and my video editor are properly in sync, so for my next test, I’ll try exporting the video in 4K.

    #2 What I did was create two videos one with the in-car scene and another with the action scene. I synced the timing of both videos to match each other and added some pictures to the final edit. All of that was done in my video editor. I used OBS to record from the replay file and then split the footage into two separate videos. That approach is easier and takes less time than creating two separate video files.

    I’ll redo this video for better graphics, and I can record myself putting it together. Making a video will be easier for me than trying to explain it in text.

    I use Wondershare video editor. It is free to use, you have default tools and widgets, but if you want to have more controls you can rent to use or buy them.
