Hi guys,

I have just joined this community and i am looking forward to have some fun racing.

My name is Karolis a.k.a. karoliens and I am originally from Lithuania but currently living in Denmark. I am always on the move and do not stay in one location for too long. I have lived in Asia before as well therefore it is only my passport which proves that I am Lithuanian. I am 30 years old.

I have a lot of hobbies including gaming, mountain biking, photography, video making and editing, micro soldering which take a lot of spare time. In addition my fiancee calls me a geek whereas I do not consider myself one.

I was always passionate about the cars and motorcycles since the early age. Even though I mostly worked in IT related fields now I am studying Automotive Technology.

Regarding racing games I would call myself occasional gamer since TOCA era. At the moment I mostly play Project Cars, Dirt Rally and Dirt 4 (rarely). When I want to relax I play FIFA 17 and when I am up for a challenge I grab Dark Souls 3, Mass Effect Andromeda on Insanity level.

I have involved into Sim Racing more seriously quite recently when I bought racing wheel and mount for it. Only now I am starting to enjoy it fully. In addition I see Sim Racing as a complimentary tool for my education since tuning setups in racing games are reflections of real world tuning setups.

It is just a brief introduction of me and I am looking forward to my first induction event.

Welcome to RSR, look forward to racing with you!

Hi Guys,

I have done a few races with a number of you over the past couple of years mainly in pCars and spent quite a bit of time racing with the PRD guys who are a great bunch, but I have now switched over to rFactor2 and would like to join your new rFactor2 endurance team.

I am a fairly active sim racer and race in several rF2 leagues and can't say enough about the great FFB and tire model this sim has.

Looking forward to seeing you on track and racing with you guys.

Micheal...your not rubbish, you just need to gain a bit more experience, you have decent pace, just need to iron out the mistakes and aggression, no point risking an overtake as there is more chance of damage. try watching the race streams to see how we race. You will get there soon enough!

[GermOnline]

Hey what's up everybody. GermOnline here aka Germ. i was recommended to this group by Yorkie065.
Bit of background;
i am 29 and currently work for a bank. Prior to that i was a lighting designer and did some QA for 3 major game studios. i started playing racing games around the release of Gran Turismo 3, and have been heavy in to sim racing since 2009. Starting with Forza, and the F1 titles. Now i mainly play pCARS and Assetto Corsa on PC (of course). Just looking for a fun and clean group of drivers to battle it out with and have a great time! I am a fair driver, i will give you just enough space, but will over-take at any opportunity. I have a smooth and patient driving style, with just the right measurement of aggression. Can't wait to see you all on track!

[MattH]

Hey all.

My name is Matt. I'm a BMW and Toyota fan and bought the game due to the quality of the Le Mans sim. Didn't realise how many UK tracks it has - I do the occasional trackday in my Celica GT4 so the game is a great way to learn the circuits. Keen to do the odd race here and there, I may even make tonights induction depending on a couple of things....
