With one of the most distinguishable shapes in motorsport, the NSU enjoyed much success in the late ’60s/early ’70s when these cult cars dominated the European rally & circuit racing scene. The 1000 TTS, with its inline-4 engine giving 122hp through the rear wheels, outperformed many sports cars thanks to its high power-to-weight ratio. In our latest Special Event, we give you the opportunity to recreate the glory days of the NSU by presenting challenges in both Hillclimb & circuit disciplines. Leaderboard qualifying will be staged on the stunning 10.5km RaceRoom Hillclimb run where drivers will need nerves of steel to post a fast time. The main event will consist of 3 sprint races on the Knutstorp, Mid Ohio & Nordschleife circuits which will guarantee fun and leave a smile as broad as the canted hatch on these addictive hot rods! Server 1 on Race Day, that will contain the fastest 30 drivers from the LB qualifying, will be broadcast LIVE on our YouTube channel!

It just means that you can't see the other cars on the track during qualifying and you also don't need to do an outlap, just like on the leaderboard. Apart from that, it's a normal online qualifying session.
Practice 1 will now be for 1 hour to give everyone plenty of time to get onto the server. So, instead of P1 starting at 19:40 CEST, it will now start at 19:10 (CEST). Qualifying 1 has not altered and will commence at 20:10 CEST! Good luck with your races!
Hallo all !!! Was some fun but what happend with the Quali time at the Nordschleife, was drive like many and no time set only the driver behind me and dont saw a invalid round ??? Server 1 have nice time see you on the track
I don't know what the problem was, but there was a major problem in server 3, race1 kicked out 1min before the race, race2 kicked out after the start of the race and after the first corner and race3 just before the start, game blocks, could not back to my desktop
I had a great time in Server 3, and had an amazing battle at Mid Ohio for 7th place position, nose to tail all race!
Guys, already after the race. Can you explain me the secret of speed on the straight? I had minimum fuel, but even with it, my acceleration and speed were far behind competitors. I tried to change gears on 7K, 7.5K rpm...same dynamic. On the straight competitor in slipstream overtook me very fast, but then i could not make the same.
Nice Race Yesterday! Had some fun at all 3 races. Nice hard battles- at least i'm to slow for you . After the First Race my PC killed herself- i have to try a cupple of times to restart and finaly i was so Happy to be Back 6 minutes before Quali of mid Ohio ends I had a problem with the esc- cant Go Back to menu and have to wait till session was over all the time. At least it was a funny evening. Thx all and sorry for my ugly Performance on track and my english
Très belle soirée sur le serveur 1 Tout d'abord, merci aux commentateurs Mr Miguel Santiago Carou et Mr Daniel D Finney, au top !! 3 belles courses, notamment sur les 2 premières avec de belles batailles avec Mr JESPER ERIKSSON, très dur de dépasser, mais assez propre dans l'ensemble. Ma plus belle course était sur la Nordschleiffe, partit 16ème car j'ai raté mes qualification, et finir P2, une belle bataille avec Mr LUCA PELLEGRINI and Mr MASSIMo BONNI Bravo à tous les participants ! Et non, je n'ai pas de NSU dans la vrai vie, cela était une blague faites par un de mes collègue Cordialement Mr Christian GARCIN ************************** Very nice evening on server 1 Firstly, thanks to the commentators Mr Miguel Santiago Carou and Mr Daniel D Finney, at the top ! 3 nice races, especially on the 2 first ones with nice battles with Mr JESPER ERIKSSON, very hard to overtake, but quite clean on the whole. My best race was on the Nordschleiffe, started 16th because I missed my qualifications, and finished P2, a nice battle with Mr LUCA PELLEGRINI and Mr MASSIMo BONNI. Congratulations to all the participants ! And no, I don't have NSU in real life, it was a joke made by one of my colleague. Sincerely Mr Christian GARCIN Translated with DeepTranslator (free version)
Thanks to all drivers who participated in this Special Event! The time-attack qualification would provide a stage on which the NSU felt right at home having enjoyed much success in its heyday of the late 60s/early 70s. The Hillclimb run would provide a unique and fitting challenge for drivers to tackle with Michel Kasperink recording the fastest of 8, sub 6 minute times on the Alps. 118 drivers would take place in the 3-race main event which would provide some extremely entertaining racing as these cult cars just begged to be slung into every bend and leap over every crest! Gavino Pintus would prove too good on the night and took wins on Server #1 at Knutstorp, Mid Ohio & Nordschleife. The same can be said about Tobias Naumann, Ziga Mikeli & Dominykas Koncevicius too in their respective servers. Links to all servers results can be found in post #11, above. Thanks also to Miguel & Daniel for providing comms on the evening!
