OVERVIEW
Welcome to Season 14 of the DRL North American Championship!
Delta
Racing League is a PC-based ACC community that is open to beginners and
more advanced racers alike, with an emphasis on developing consistency
and sound racecraft over mere outright pace. We welcome those with a
friendly attitude, who like to talk racing with a bit of banter mixed
in, those who want to race together, improve together, and most
importantly, have fun with a hobby we all share!
You need to be verified on our Discord to be able to participate in this league, so please join the DRL Discord server and make sure you follow instructions in #readme-and-rules to get the correct role.
If the grid is full, we will remove unverified drivers to make space for those on the waitlist who have been verified.
BROADCASTS
We expect to bring as many live race broadcasts to the Delta Racing League Youtube Channel as possible this season!
SERVER DETAILS
Server: [drlna] Delta Racing League NA | Season 14
Password: See Discord Sprint Series (NA) #race-day-info for the
server password on the day of the race. You need to have the driver
role to see this channel in discord, see above.
The server will
restart an hour before the Qualifying. During the week prior to the
race, the server will be used as a practice server with settings
comparable to those during the race. We will also publish a forecast
that will give you a good idea of what the Race Weekend weather should
look like. See 🔵-race-day-info-🔵 for details.
The NA server is
located in The Midwest/Chicago area. Anyone is welcome to participate
but we do require your ping to be sub-300 to avoid dangerous latency.
FORMAT
This season's championship consists of 4 races. Qualifying starts at 8PM ET / 5PM PT. The server will be restarted one hour before qualifying with
a 1 hour practice session. The server is available throughout the week
as a practice, with weather and time settings that will be used on the
race weekend.
The races well be held according to the following format:
SPRINT
- 20-minute Qualifying (10min Porsche Cup then GT4)
- 60-minute Race with a mandatory stop for fuel
- This is to keep the league more beginner friendly and allow drivers to recover from early incidents
ABOUT LIVERIES AND NUMBERS
- As
is now "custom"ary, we will allow the use of external-to-ACC custom
liveries. DRL is now using the Awesome Sim Racing application to manage
liveries. Follow the instructions in our Discord to add your livery to
the appropriate DRL Collection.
- Drivers are also free to use custom in-game liveries, as well as IRL liveries.
- Drivers who are teaming up together must have similar liveries that clearly identify them as being on the same team.
- Racing
numbers are first come, first served. SimGrid allows for duplicate
numbers across classes (even Pro and Am) and we will change numbers
as-needed if there are duplicates. To avoid this, just pay attention to
the numbers when you are signing up. :)
