Classic DTM - General Discussion

Willkommen zu der ersten TORA Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft.

One of the big classics from the heart of europe has now found it's way to TORA. Keeping with the classic theme we are taking ourselves back to the early 90's, where big turbos and the imagination of the engineers running wild were the only limitations.

This six round weekly series will consist of 2 races, each with one pit-stop to mix up the action. To keep to the roots of DTM we will be visiting six iconic European tracks testing all capabilities of the cars and also the drivers behind the wheel.

Please post any and all comments and questions here.

This looks alright dunnit?

Cool. Thanks.

If our usual race number is already taken, would slapping a 0 in front of it quantify it as a different number?

Due to our system for calculating points and so on, adding a 0 infront does not qualify as a seperate number and would lead to complications. Adding a 0 at the end would be allowed so maybe this would be a possible solution for you.

Was used when there were 16 or less in the lobby, was not used hen there were more than 16 due to lack of party chat for everyone. But yes, there should be a provision in the rules for such an occasion.
