pitmanMarch 3, 2021July 29, 2022Leave a comment

On last Sunday we held the final Race Weekend of our 70s TCL Championship.

The championship lasts from September 2020 until now and we raced on 11 different iconic tracks:

Kyalami 1967
Monaco 1966
Zandvoort 1967
Spa 1966
Rouen 60s
Silverstone 1967
Nürburgring 1967
Mosport
Monza 1966
Watkins Glen 1967
Mexico 1967

60 different drivers participated in the championship.
We had an average of 25 cars on the track and the biggest starting grid was in Mosport with 29 vehicles.
28 different drivers managed to finish on the podium and 10 drivers were able to claim a victory.

We streamed every race at Youtube and we have all experienced a lot of great motorsport.

I want to thank every participant. It was a pleasure to have you all on track !!!

But now it's time to celebrate the winners:

Class A

	Valentin Knechtel
	Mac Shepherd
	Nat Stevenson

Please take in account, that the incidents from the races at Mexico are not decided yet.

Class B

	Nik Likar
	Doenerfan
	margar17

After the race, we spun the wheel of fortune to determine the winner of the THR championship prize.

And in this case, the wheel of fortune stopped at the Champions field.

Valentin and Nik therefore receive a product from our THR Shop in the next days.

Championship Prizes

Hey THR.

We're about to complete our two long championships with the TCL and GPL races at Mexico 1967 in the next two weeks.

THR would like to offer one prize per championship.
And the prizes will be products from our shop.
https://shop.thracing.de/

I was thinking that it's good for the community if many people have the chance to win a prize.

Therefore, I will spin a wheel of fortune after our Sunday´s races at Mexico.

The categories will be:

Championship Winner
best custom skin (User vote)
Racer with most podiums beside the Championship Winner
most starts in Practice and Championship races
fairest driver (User vote)
each participant with at least 6 Championship races

I am not sure if we can deliver to all the countries of the possible winners.
But we'll see.

So stay tuned to Voice Chat (Discord) after the races tomorrow and next week...

Let’s do the final races

GPL at 60s Watkins Glen Race Weekend 10/11

Live stream from race ONE and TWO:

The track in Watkins Glen, which was recreated historically correct by Sergio Loro, is relatively narrow and the high curbs increase the level of difficulty for a race with the GPL cars.

But on Sunday, two exciting races developed.

And Nat Stevenson had a nearly perfect race weekend.
After qualifying P2, he quickly moved to the front of the field and dominated the pace.

Thanks again Sergio for bringing the track back to (AC) life.

Race 1

TCL at Watkins Glen Race Weekend 10/11

Yesterday we had the wonderful opportunity to drive on Sergio Loro's new track "Watkins Glen".

The drivers agreed that the races were really fun and that Sergio has once again built a brilliant track.

Shortly to the Livestream:
For the first time we show a live TrackMap with the individual positions of the drivers, which provides a very good overview of the race action.

We have also engaged Mark (from Windows) as our new commentator.

Unfortunately the camera settings of the track, which is still under development, are not perfect yet. But this will be fixed for the GPL races next week.

I have added a new Partner to our Affiliate program.

Trak Racer products (Rigs, Wheel Stands, Racing Seats and more) are made from high quality material and durable construction that gives Trak Racer the confidence to offer lengthy warranties on Trak Racer products.

If you plan to buy a rig and find something on their site, it would be nice if you can click on the Trak Racer logo on our website.

This will give THR a small referral commission.
Thanks in advance!

Finally, we can race again at 60s Watkins Glen.

[THR] is privileged to have @SergioLoro as a member.

A few months ago I told him that we wanted to run a GPL Throwback Championship.
I told him that among other things we will drive his two tracks Zandvoort and Rouen and that the only track we are missing is Watkins Glen.

The track was already available for AC, but unfortunately hardly drivable because it was very bumpy.
I asked Sergio if he could fix the surface. He looked at the track and said it was too much work.
Before I could be sad about it, he quickly added that he would like to build the track completely himself.

And in line with our racing calendar, the track is now ready for us to race on.

Watkins Glen was in the original Grand Prix Legends back in the days.
I loved the track back then and have always missed it in AC.
So I was really happy when I did some laps on it in the last days.

Watkins Glen is finally back and in perfect Sergio Loro quality.

Phenomenal! Thank you very much @SergioLoro

P.S.: I have set up our Servers THR | 1 | and THR | 2 | with the TCL and GPL cars at Watkins Glen.

Also the registration for both championship raceweekends is open for you:
