OVERVIEW
Welcome to the GT2 & GT3 Sprint Cup 2024. In line with the brand-new GT2 DLC, we bring a new sprint championship. You might have been wondering why we have been quiet on the ACC front as a community and this was exactly why, we were waiting for the brand-new GT2 DLC to drop. With a surprise twist of the Red Bull Ring coming also, meaning we have two new circuits on the calendar with this one, as we put the Nordschleife as the finale in the hope it drops sometimes at the end of March or beginning or April.
- GT2 Class - 15 spots available for one single GT2 class
- GT3 Pro Class - 15 spots available for the GT3 pro class
- GT3 Silver Class - 15 spots available for the GT3 Silver class
All 15 positions in each class will score points every round along with 2 points for the fastest lap.

The first 15 drivers to register in each class will secure a slot in the series. We will have 10 reserves for each class in this championship, so if registration is full, take one of the reserve spots in the class you want to be in and you will be moved into a permanent spot if a driver withdraws. This championship is free to enter.

CUSTOM LIVERIES
The use of custom liveries made outside of the game is permitted in this sprint series. Any politically charged or potentially offensive material on a custom livery will see that driver banned from the series. We use Awesome SimRacing for all our livery needs, so be sure to upload your livery to our community and it will get synced with our broadcaster, you can do this here: SOP Motorsport community | Awesome Simracing (awesome-simracing.com)
WITHDRAW AND RESERVES
If a driver is unavailable to attend a round in the championship, then use the withdraw function. This is found by clicking on the `Races` tab, and then `Admin` on the round you need to withdraw from. There you will find the withdraw button. Please check the info tab to see how many sign-outs are permitted. If a driver has withdrawn from a race but wishes to attend the race after all, please contact a staff member as the slot may have already been filled by a reserve driver.
