    GROUP 5 DRM 70/80s CHAMPIONSHIP

    DRM 5 Cars.jpg


    Deutsche Rennsport Meisterschaft (German for German Racing Championship), formerly known as DRM, was a touring car and sports car racing series. It is regarded as a predecessor of the current DTM as Germany's top national series.

    **********************************************************************************************

    - This series will have 5 rounds.
    - The 5 cars in this mod are shown above.

    - For each round, a player has to choose a different car. For exemple, if you take the BMW M1 for round 1, than you take the Porsche 935 for round 2 ect.
    - The official DRM points scoring system is used.
    - The Pole Position driver gets 1 extra point.

    ADDITIONAL INFO:

    * Make sure you clutch or lift your throttle foot when upshifting!
    * Some cars are on default radiator setting 1. Make sure to set it to 3 or 4.
    * The BMW M1 is a fast car, but the engine gets hot if you overref the engine.

    Inside rFactor 2 you can find the cars here:
    00Historic Cars: BMW E21, Porsche 935, BMW M1, Lancia
    DRM: Ford Capri

    RULES & REGULATIONS - link

    Weather
    Always dry.

    ****************************************************************
    How does each race start?

    Every event will have a formation lap and rolling start.
    When the pole sitter exits the last corner from the apex, the race is on.

    ****************************************************************
    No Esc. on track rule in Qualification

    In qualification, you can not press Escape (Esc.) while on track (if you crash) and then go back out again.
    If you want to do another run, you have to come into the pits first.

    This is to protect the other drivers from someone taking abnormal risks to set a good lap time and crashing (other cars).

    ****************************************************************
    Custom skins

    You can use custom skins for all cars in this series.

    ****************************************************************
