Welcome to a new series by Sim Racing Online: The Honey Jar - Assetto Corsa GT Legends.

Most of us will still remember the old GT Legends, a revolutionary Sim Racing game by Simbin. And now these classic cars have come to Assetto Corsa.
And it does not disappoint! It is a masterpiece all on it's own. You will be enjoying every minute spend in a variety of classic cars from the 60's and 70's. No driving aids, just pure driving!
And we want YOU to come on board and make it a historic event!
Although every car has completely different handling, balance and character, the power to weight ratio’s is pretty equal, resulting in close laptimes and –racing.
There is a complete overhaul of sounds and physics, rescaling and polishing of models. All cars are on TireModel 10.

This series is a competition with money prizes.
Sim Racing Online is putting € 150,- in The Honey Jar as a starting amount.
Every body who signs up will be asked to contribute € 5,-. This also goes into The Honey Jar as prize money.
There will be a maximum grid of 24 drivers. 24 x 5 = 120 + 150 = € 270,- prize money!
PLEASE TRANSFER € 5,- TO NIGEL MIDDLETON (SRO owner) BEFORE SIGNING UP.
Paypal address: nigelj55@googlemail.com
(Send money as a friend or family, so we don't have to pay any fees)

1. € 72
2. € 54
3. € 41
4. € 32
