OVERVIEW
Discord: https://discord.gg/BY3HwZvBFQ
BoA E-Sports brings you the Eighth season of our GT3 Championship! This series will consist of 15 rounds. This season we will mix things up by adding 3 Sprint Rounds throughout the season with 2 - 30M races (NO PIT) & the other 12 rounds will remain - 60M races with a mandatory pitstop. There will be TWO SPLITS this season with PRO & PRO/AM. The splits will be divided into 20 - PRO, & 25 - PRO/AM. We will be using realistic weather this season based upon real world conditions.
Everyone is welcome! However, BoA rules and regulations will be in effect, and we expect clean racing.
We hope to see new members as well as regulars taking part in this championship! To get involved please join BoA's PC discord using this invite link:
