IMPORTANT NOTE - this event has Pre-Qualification requirements you must meet in order to take part. Please read the Minimum Requirements section below.

Pre-Quali (PQ) is needed if the number of entries for an event may exceed the number a single server can accommodate, and/or if we have set specific PQ requirements for an event. In these cases, a period of PQ will be run prior to the race, usually for at least a week, and if necessary the race will be divided into equal size splits, based on PQ times. See the Driver Briefing tab for details of the PQ servers. In championship events, there is usually a points bonus for being in a higher (faster) split.

This is an overview of the PQ standings for this event, showing only PQ results by drivers who have registered for this event, with a PQ time set in the car they registered. The full PQ results can be found here. If you do not see yourself in this summary, but do see yourself in the full results, check that you PQ'ed in the same car you registered for this event with, and that the Steam GUID you are using for in-game matches the one you registered for this site with. Also note that lap times may not show up immediately in these results, it could be an hour or more before you see your times appear.

Briefing

Driver swapping in AC is done by simply having the driver stop in their pit box, disconnect from AC, next driver connects.  As the time taken to connect can vary a lot depending on the spec of each person's PC, in order to level the playing field there is a minimum pit stop time enforced.  When the next driver connects, they will see a timer counting down on screen.  They must wait until this timer reach 0 before leaving their pit box.  If they leave before this, they will receive an automatic stop & hold penalty.

  1. Driver one drives into the pit lane and comes to a stop in their pit box (they need to be in the correct pit box, if they are not the team will receive the harshest configured penalty)
  2. Driver one disconnects from the server, initiating the timer
  3. Driver two waits for driver one to have fully disconnected
  4. Driver two connects to the server
  5. On loading driver two will see a countdown at the top of their screen in a banner, and in the chat
  6. Driver two can now apply car setup options if necessary
  7. When the timer reaches zero driver two is free to leave the pits

Note that driver swaps currently reset all vehicle damage, fuel status etc.

It is also likely that the game's Blue Flag system will get confused, and drivers who are actually on the same lap will see blue flags.  Just exercise some common sense to figure out if you need to obey it or not.

Pre-Quali Servers

This event has Pre-Quali (PQ), running from 2023-06-15 07:27 PM Europe/Rome to 2023-06-22 11:00 PM Europe/Rome . PQ is used to sort drivers into multiple splits by laptime. You do not need to take any action to register your times, the process is automated, simply drive laps on one of the listed PQ servers.

This event has a PQ requirement. This means that you must meet the requirement(s) specified in the Pre-Quali tab on this page in order to participate in the event. If you either do not set a time or do not meet the requirements, you will not be entered for the event.

PQ server details are only available to drivers entered for this event.

Race Servers

The race server allocation is based on the currently checked-in entry list, and (if the event has PQ) the current PQ standings. These often change rapidly in the last few hours before the race, so check back here immediately before the race to make sure you have the right details.
