I think you can join every race apart from the events which take place at the Rockingham track.

To join you just have to join the server on time. You can find the password for the server below this chatbox.

Good luck!

New Season, New Champion, New Hope

A new season, a new champion (LRK-racer) and fresh start for drivers both new and old. Race 1 of the 22nd season of the S2 series of Absolute Beginners race took place at Aston North in the reverse direction. All drivers were limited to the XFG for this race. 21 drivers took to the track in an attempt to put their cars on pole. Mazdarati was the only driver to get into the 30's as he took the pole with a 2:30.93. LRK-racer was not far behind as he sat beside Mazdarati on the grid. If the first race was any indication of the new season it appeared that the top spot was going to be contested by the same two drivers. With AkuLambat joining forces with LRK-racer to form Gernesian Racing Team 1, THR would have to be on top of their game to continue their dominance in the constructors title.


Daniel and Mondbrot put the squeeze on Camoradi early in the race.

As the race got underway the drivers raced towards T1 in hopes of getting a good start. As the cars made their way through the first corner, Daniel and Mondbrot put Camoradi in a sandwich as they raced to "Eau Rouge". Daniel, who was desperate not to lose touch with AkuLambat, came out in front and slid into P5. Camoradi came out of the twisty corners on the short end dropping all the way back from P5 to P8 losing places to not only Daniel and Mondbrot but to Speed Senna as well.

By the time lap 2 started the cars had settled into a long snakelike procession around the short track. Advancing your position with the low powered XFG would prove to be difficult as the race wore on.


Speed Senna and Norbert make it a drag race down the straight.

On lap 4 Speed Senna and Norbert made a side by side drag race down the back straight with Norbert coming out in front for the moment.


Space takes advantage of a small mistake by LRK-racer and gets a look at P2 for a few corners.

As the race approached the halfway point LRK-racer made a small mistake by running wide onto the grass. While he recovered nicely Space was quick to seize the opportunity and squeezed his car by to jump into P2. LRK-racer, not happy with his error, pushed hard in the next few corners and was all over the bumper of Space. The pressure paid off as he got on the inside of Space on the final corner and by the time the two cars crossed the start-finish line LRK-racer had regained P2.

As the cars cycled through the mandatory pit stop, only one driver made an error that warranted a penalty. Speed Senna was one of the last cars to stop and although he entered the pits correctly, he lost focus as left his box and got back up to speed, momentarily breaking the 80 kph speed limit. Having entered pit lane in P6 and hoping for more quickly vanished as he was assessed a DRIVE THROUGH penalty. Speed Senna delayed the inevitable as long as possible serving his penalty on the next to last lap. Amazingly the delay only cost him one position dropping him to P7.

Almost as they had started out the top 5 remained in formation as they had been early in the race with Mazdarati taking the win with LRK-racer and Space completing the podium spots. The 2nd drivers for GRT and THR, AkuLambat and Daniel crossed the line next in 4th and 5th respectively.

Both top teams seemed reasonably happy with the results of the first race of the season with neither side delivering a fatal blow to the other.


Mazdarati starts off the new season collecting maximum points with the win and the fastest lap of the race.
