    Hi all, I often find it difficult to find a server running WTCC with a decent number of cars on the grid, the best to date has been about 12, finishing with 5. :( . More often than not the grid sizes are are around 4-5. Disappointing considering this is a great sim.
    That said I have set up a dedi server to host a race as follows:-

    Sunday 29th Practice starts at 8pm (uk time)
    Hochenheimring
    WTCC 2014,

    Chevrolet Cruze
    Citroen Elissee
    Honda Civic
    Lada Granta

    server name, OTCR CO UK 1

    Practice 30min
    Qualifying 10mins
    Race 20mins


    I hope this helps people to book an hour off from real life and attract more racers, if it is a success I am willing to run this bi-weekly
    see you there...

    our group hosts WTCC 2015 once every 2 weeks for a 10m sprint race if that catches your interest...among other classes of course..though we mainly look at multiclass events as our main events. :) just a thought, if not i hope you get good numbers and have fun :)

    Hi OverTheLine, thx for your reply, if there is little response I'll take a look at your group.
    Here's hoping for a good turnout.

    Well I'm not very surprised, it was a none event. During practise we where 6 or 7 drivers, promising I thought. Others joined and left, at race time only 5 on the grid. (I had hoped to see some old regulars that i raced with before) After 1 lap 2 had dropped out which left just 3, (two friends and me). I came second.........result....lol

    very disappointed.......

    Conclusion. If you are not in a league or not prepared to buy any cars or tracks, then forget Raceroom
    I know it is not the best sim out there and has a lot of stiff competition but it does provide very close racing and is quite forgiving in comparison....... That said not my No1 sim but I still like R3E alot.

    I will try again soon, maybe start a league along side our forthcoming rF2 championship at OTCR.
    regards Mal (Traction)

    Check WTCC League, a French League racing only WTCC cars ('13, '14, '15, and soon :rolleyes:, '16)...
    Fair and good drivers, not much on a compétitive point of view, but most on fun & fair driving...
    French speaking mandatory, however....
