=== This One Sucks But If You Want to Complicate It ===
+
 
−
Right click AMS.exe and click Create Shortcut. Right click the shortcut and add the highlighted line in the image to the right after AMS.exe in the Target line. Using this shortcut will launch the game and bring you to the car select screen for the server. If you want to do things such as changing sound or graphics options, launch the game with the normal AMS.exe.

If you're on a legit copy connect to the server with "+path=".."" "+multiplayer" "+connect 5.9.248.186:64297" in the rFactor2.exe shortcut.

===Car List===
−
Launch the game with AMS.exe. Hit the Multiplayer button, and then the RED + at the top right. Enter the IP in the image to the right (port number shouldn't be needed) and hit OK. Click the server and join with the button on the bottom right. The IP will be saved so you can join the server this way from that point on.

===Driver Classes===
+
=== Restart Procedure ===
−
For this series, there will be an AM and POO-AM driver class. In game you will still be racing for the overall position, but also for your own class as well. This is just something to change up the usual racing and points dynamic a bit, and to give the slower drivers in particular something to think about. Your car will not drive faster/slower depending on what class you choose, it's simply a driver categorization.
+
 
−
====AM====
+
Race will be restarted if needed.
−
You will be placed into this category if you have won three or more OVGT3 races, won an OVGT3 series, or have placed consistently very high up in the races you have done.
+
 
 +
=== Car Choice ===
 +
 
 +
No limits. Pick whatever car you want and feel free to change cars every round.
 +
 
 +
=== Track Limits ===
  
−
====POO-AM====
+
Feel free to run wide on corner entry/exit, just expect to be called a pussy and insulted in public especially if you wreck someone because of it.
−
You will be placed into this category if you do not meet the above criteria.
 
  
−
These rules aren't 100% strict (ex. fast driver but they haven't raced much, actual Lewis Hamilton shows up) because much like real life racing, rule exceptions can and probably will be made. :)

So when ACC gets an update it completely breaks the crack, and I have to reupload the entire game. Not only that but as of the latest version I straight up couldn't get the online working on the cracked copies unlike usual. This is really annoying to fix over and over. So now we are using Automobilista with all the in game logos replaced with ACC or Kunos logos. The car we are using if you still haven't figured it out???? is the V8 Supercar which is stock AMS content. Tracks will be a combination of stock content and mod tracks. Yes the Google doc says we are doing Blancpain GT tracks but if you'd take a minute to hover over the names you'll see the actual track name we are using.
