12h of Mount Panorama
Just one week after the real 12h of Bathurst, Harakiri Racing invites you to its virtual version! The 2025 edition of 12h of Mount Panorama is here! You can expect 12h long battle with GT3 category, live stewarding and live broadcast. This years edition will be slightly different. This time there will be a pre-qualification and 105 % rule to ensure that grid is more competitive and to spice things up, teams will only have 12 sets of tires for the race (like in real life). The LFM BoP will be used. Form a team of 1-4 drivers and see you on the track!
Entry fee
We are aware that entry fee is a controversial topic, however we did not have other option. The entry fee is set to 3€ per team. With this entry fee we want to cover the costs for the SimGrid boosts, server costs and most importantly the team of stewards. Use the PayPal link to pay the fee and put your team name and starting number in the payment description. When asked by PayPal, please choose that you are sending money "to friends and family" to avoid processing costs.
