    I am curious! So, for this I opened a thread, hope it is okay with the mods.

    From which country are you and at what community website do go to meet online at RaceRoom Racing Experience?
    I read a couple of topics where some reacted, that there are so many community websites.

    My place of birth and living is in the Netherland, which makes me Dutch (and proud of it ;-)
    My community website of preference is GTHQ.nl which is originally a community website for Gran Turismo, but is currently expanding to more sim racing, like R3E.

    Let me know where I can find you guys, so I know where which race is going to be?!

    Secondly a poll. Fill it in, let your vote count!

    I'm NL (dutch) , no community (only my family ;) ). No website preference, so for me it would be great if R3E could facilitate leagues. I have no direct friends which race so no connection there either :(

    Well, you just found one! ;)

    For me there is no other reason for virtual racing. Once you get this bug, it does not go away easy, so beware ;)

    Thanks, did not know that.
    I see that is is American based a lot though, which means US servers and low ping speeds in Europe, plus a time difference.

    I'm hoping to get involved with some club races on Race Department although if anything is organised on this forum I will take part if I can.

    In the UK, by the way.

    I'm Hungarian, but live in Germany since a while. I'm looking forward to join club races on RD, but basically I'm up for any civilised races/championships

    Germany....no community anymore , hoping for Race Department like James, or official events are held via S3 (not hotlap comp. of course). Like to go international rather than national (ok for RRE Online it should be a european group >>>ping /bandwidth - Russia belongs to it as well have no beef with them ;) )
    Think of starting a GRE (Geriatric Racing Experience) Group for guys +40 :D (via Steam or whereever it works)

    We need a lot of aids then, to get into the sim is an experience on itself. Maybe we can ask sector 3 to make a full hour practice time. Not to race but to get the whole process started. ;) plus mandatory pits stops....

    I race alot of the Sims over at RD, and for me you cant beat the amount of events & organisation that cater for all tastes, I'm looking forward to race this Sim over there too :), although some don't agree with their new premium system, I find it worth every penny :)
    Anyway roll on Dedi servers ;)

    Okay, nice reply's!

    Seems like a favorite to organise races from this website.
    Keep the votes coming!

    Would have been nice to have been allowed multiple votes. As it is, when dedicated servers are with us, I'll be organizing events/championships on my home community (RoninGT.com), for open events I'll be organizing them on my home community and posting them here too.

    Edit:
    Forgot to say, RoninGT is UK based but we are international and try to run something for everyone even though we aren't that big.

    Russia. I don't know about any russian RRE championships but I know in Russia a lot of poor children which still playing free rF1:laughing:
    That's why we don't have any RRE champ's in whole russian simracing community
