Description and Instructions
OVERVIEW
Please note the special rules for this event regarding qualification as explained below! If you do not qualify in advance you will not be allowed in the race!
This is a mini-endurance race running for 144 minutes (2.4 hours). In order to join the race you MUST go in either of the two qualification servers, whichever is at a time you prefer, (see the Races tab for dates and times) and set a clean lap.

Our rules are found in the HFG Discord. To join our events you MUST be a member of our Discord, AND your nickname in Discord MUST contain your SimGrid profile name. Before the Race start there is a mandatory driver briefing.
