Hi,
The next race will be held this Sunday 15th January, qualify starts at 18:45 CET.
For this event we wanted to test a new race concept of fixed setups.
We are preparing 3 sets for the XFG and 3 sets for the XRG, these 6 sets will be published on our webiste/forum on saturday 14th morning (CET).
You're encouraged to train with these setups as one of them (for each car) will be determined randomly for the race, all drivers are requested to use it for the race.
On the sunday, at 18:45 (CET), we'll proceed to a dice game to determine wich set couple (XFG/XRG)
* 1-2 => set 1
* 3-4 => set 2
* 5-6 => set 3
The admin will send the selected sets to every driver for a 15min warmup and then qual will start at 19:00 CET
The qualification will be run with the XFG, race 1 will be XFG and race 2 will be XRG.
If you are already registered on the site we'll send you a mail on Saturday morning with the server password and a link to the setups. If your interested in entering the event please register by Friday night. The server will be remain public until Saturday morning.

The Gentlemen Drivers Club (GDC) has just completed its 2nd season of official races and have now scheduled 5 off season events which will be open to non-members. Our server name is [S-D]Gentlemen Drivers Club and is public until 2 days prior to each race.
08/01 : BL1R/FBM - 2x20 laps, r2 reverse grid
15/01 : FE2/XFG+XRG - 12 laps XFG + 12 laps XRG, random setups
29/01 : WE1R/XRR-20% - 20 laps, 1 pit stop
12/02 : AS3R/UFR-15% - 2x10 laps, r2 ballast depends on r1
26/02 : KY2/XFR-15% - 2x12 laps, r2 restriction depends on r1
Our 1st season saw just 5 driver entries but we increased this to 10 drivers for the 2nd season. We are now looking to increase this up to 15 drivers for season 3 which will start in March.
Here’s a little info about us…
GDC was created by 3 friends who believe that respect for fellow drivers is key to fostering close,fair and enjoyable racing. We were frustrated by racing in leagues where other competitors believed using our bumpers was an acceptable alternative to their brakes and we knew others out there using LFS felt our frustration. We also recognised that new drivers to LFS or racing sims sometimes felt intimidated joining leagues or servers where faster drivers would rather use their horn to get you out of the way then take the time to provide guidance to help them learn and pick up speed. As a result we have created a friendly and competitive environment for like-minded drivers.
For the official seasons we have so far used FXO, XRT, FZ5 and LX4 with restriction but we may introduce new cars going forward. While these cars may not suit everyone, we’ve found that what they lack in speed they more than make up for with the quality of racing and it also brings the back of the grid closer to the front allowing slower drivers to complete while testing the true overtaking skills of the faster drivers. This season we have had some great battles with well thought out and clean overtakes between drivers but we haven’t had any pointless overtaking moves resulting in ruined races for some drivers. There’s nothing worse than practising during the week just to be taken out at the first corner of the race on the weekend.
If you joined LFS because you wanted to find a simulator, improve your driving and car setup skills and enjoy good racing safe in the knowledge that you’re not going to be pushed off the track by drivers with mental ages in the single digits then GDC could be for you. We can guide you through the software/wheel config, car setup and basic driving skills if you require. If you already have these skills and are experienced LFS drivers, you can join us for a competitive race.
If you joined LFS because you wanted an arcade game where you could jump in a car, race around BL1 in XFG winning by knocking people in front of you into the sand or just don’t believe respecting other drivers is that important then we are not for you
