Eh up, my name is Sean and I am back online racing after the ubiquitous mid-life crisis.
47 year old Victorian with a contrarian outlook.
I think I have tailed a few here on Marty's server, so thought I would join up.

Hi Sean and welcome. We have two leagues - a more "formal" Tuesday night league with bigger numbers, and a more casual Thursday night league which often looks at mod cars and tracks. The Tuesday league is about to start a GT2 season, and Thursdays will start a Ford Escorted 1600 season.  Let us know which one you'd like to have a run in, and we'll send more details.

Hi Wally, I have been on the practice servers and I am interested in both nights but can't make a commitment to Tuesday just yet but that could change at any time.

p.s. I have VIR 1.1 but getting a mismatch??
p.p.s I am Aussie as they come but I have no idea what Hooroo means.
Scatch that, I knew what it meant but not that goodbye was one word not two.

It means goodbye :)
Those antispam things are pretty silly.

You can join in Tuesday whenever you want. Mid season is OK. Can you PM me your GUID please. I use that to put you on the grid.

Maybe there's a new version of VIR - not sure. Which server are you getting the mismatch on? It might be a question for Marty.

I'll PM you the server password, which is also the TeamSpeak password, for Thursday nights.

Hi All,

The name's Keith, I'm 32 I hail from Brisbane but reside in Sydney.

Love all things motorsport, particularly F1 & V8 Supercars. I've been into sim racing for a few years now and have most of the racing sims/games out. Most of my time is spent in RF2 in a little private league which is great but I have a little more time available now so thought I would see what's out there.

My recent introduction to the Monorating system in AC restored my interest in the game, so I ran on a XGN server and noticed the peolpe on there were quick, consistent, and fair that's all I'm looking for :)

hopefully see you out on the track,
Keith

Hi Keith and welcome to XGN. You'll certainly find consistent and fair drivers here, of all skill levels from alien to mere mortal. I run the Tuesday night league. Season 14 in GT cars (still TBD) is about to start in a couple of Tuesday's time. I've sent you a PM with details.

The Thursday night league is run by Phil.8 and usually features slower cars and more mod cars and tracks, and is generally a little more casual but with good racing.

G'day,
I'm Russell, 57 married no kids. I've been online racing for a few years, started in rFactor then rFactor2. Been hooning around in AC recently with a couple of mates and was told about this place so I thought I'd drop in and see what it's about.
I always try to race as clean as possible so I hope I don't get in anyone's way  8)

I watch all the F1 and some of the V8's when I get the time.

Cheers
RussG

Hi Russ and welcome. See the post above yours about Tuesdays and Thursdays. Do you want to sign up for the Tuesday season starting week after next? There's a practice run next Tuesday night.

Hi Wally,
I should be able to make Tuesdays but probably not Thursdays so sign me up for a run on Tuesdays.
Is there anything I need to download? A link to the rules etc for Tuesdays?

Cheers

Hi RussG,

I do not think you need much more than read these:
http://xgn.com.au/index.php?topic=1617.0 (season rules)
http://xgn.com.au/index.php?topic=1620.0 (trial night)
http://xgn.com.au/index.php?topic=758.0 (mandatory app)
http://xgn.com.au/index.php?topic=1623.0 (mandatory app)
http://xgn.com.au/index.php?topic=1625.0 (more apps)

As for racing regulations, aside from a few specific rules for t1 and t2 in lap 1, the rest is... well, FIA.

Then you can go through the threads in here to see a bit of the past discussions: http://xgn.com.au/index.php?board=42.0

HeyHey!

I'm Masa, 25 year old simracer.

I just saw you guys have servers running in AC so I decided to register and I want to race with you guys.
Public servers don't offer much so I want race with a group like this.

I'm not sure how this thing works so I will just make it brief and simple so I will just reply here.
If there's room for this season I'd like to join in if possible.

Any tips for the new guy?

Thanks!

Hi Masa,

Come along next Thursday night, racing the Ford Escort 1600 at Thruxton (see this thread). Jump on TeamSpeak at ts.xgn.com.au as well - I'll PM you the passwords.

Hi All, I'm Tre and just recently purchased AC after a long break from sim racing. I started racing online back in 2003 with LFS and Nascar 2003 and have played various sims on and off since then.

I've already had a few enjoyable races on the XGN AC servers and had a chat with a few of you :).
