THR Tarnhorn Racing
Dear THR Members,
I have reworked our THR shop.
The new store offers you the following advantages:
Before the race in Mosport [THR] installed a Race Control group, which immediately had a lot of work after the first race weekend.
The members of the Race Control group spent a lot of time evaluating the open incidents and deciding on penalties.
At this point I would like to thank them for the many hours invested!
Hopefully the work of Race Control will help us to have even better races!
The detailed results (including the given penalties) can be found here:

Congrats to the winners and podium finishers of race 1 and 2!
And many thanks to every participant.
It was a pleasure to have you on track!

Before the GPL race in Mosport THR installed a Race Control group.
This group, which is formed by community members decides about the reported penalties.
The new workflow is like this.
From now on, every first lap of a race will be investigated by the Steward Group and, if necessary, Incident Reviews will be initiated.
In addition:
We all understand the Incident Review process as not yet complete. This means that useful changes can always be made to make the process complete at some point.
Our member technoluddite has modified the modern Mosport track and gave us a classic layout, which fits perfect to our vintage races.
The detailed results can be found here:

I think the community liked the winner shirt and the one for the fairest driver we gave away for the Daytona race.
But to be able to do something like this more often, we need some income.
On the one hand we have various monthly costs:
On the other hand we have the paypal donations and now and then a sold shirt from our shop.
Beyond that, I see more costs coming in the future:
I want [THR] to be prepared for this and become more "independent."
So I looked at how other communities do it:
There are sometimes monthly fees or entry fees for championships, or big calls to reach donation goals.
But I don't want that for [THR].
Therefore I had the idea to use partner programs.
https://shop.thracing.de/pages/thr-affiliates
On the above page I have set up a few partners.
If you buy products from these partners, [THR] will get a small provision.
If you support us this way, we can reinvest the money in [THR].
Thank you very much in advance for supporting your community!
Nordschleife in Germany >>> Mosport in Canada
I had to get from Germany to Canada within a week.
Unfortunately, my boss didn't give me enough money to fly over.
Instead, I had to travel by ship.
On the ship I unfortunately had no possibility to telegraph my report, therefore I can publish the Racereport not earlier than today.
In the last week there were some daring drivers who faced the longest and most dangerous race track of this year's championship.
After 80 minutes of qualifying, the spectators saw two phenomenal races.
There were many remarkable duels. For example, a group of 6 drivers fought each other for a full lap.
In the end, serial winner Mac Sheperd won both races and Vesa Tolonen finished twice on the podium.
Also making the podium were Nat Stevenson and Anthony M Petro, who accomplished this in his first race at THR.

After crossing the finish line at the end of our 2.4-hour race at Daytona, we unveiled our new [THR] store.
The first products have already reached you and besides the joy of having your own THR - product, our first recepients confirmed that the quality is great…
You have a shop means that you have almost endless possibilities to create your own products in our shop.
Whether with or without THR reference > It´s your choice.
But we think it's great to see THR products spread around the world. 😉
To make it easier for you to create your own shirt, hoodie, mug, etc.,
we have written a comprehensive help article.
https://thracing.de/thr-shop-help/
And to give you a little incentive to visit the store, we are pleased to offer you a 10% discount until the end of the month.
(The discount code can be found in our #shop channel in Discord.)
THR has hosted many races and championships over the past few months.
There has been racing action every weekend.
Over the holidays we are taking a short break to refill the tanks.
And then the Nordschleife is coming!
On 2021-01-09 we will continue with the GPL race on the Nordschleife.
One week later on 2021-01-16 we will race the TCL cars on the historic Mosport track….
Both races are open for your registration now:

In many ways, the year was different than we all expected.
Corona cut us off from many of the things we were used to.
Fortunately, THR was almost unaffected by the restrictions. Therefore we were able to offer some normality and at least on the weekends we were able to pursue our favorite racing activity.
It was an exciting year for THR. We have had many great races, fought some championships and celebrated our second anniversary.
The last two events will certainly be remembered longer by the participants.
Currently, we are still in the midst of two championships that we won't wrap up until mid-February.
What will come after that, I don't know exactly yet, but it will most likely be longer races.
You may have noticed that we have moved from tarnhoerner.de (the redirection works) to thracing.de.
I would have found thracing.com exciting too, but the site belongs to a motorcycle workshop and I didn't dare to ask 😉
I would like to take this opportunity again to thank you all. The community is slowly growing and it's a lot of fun with you!
But I also noticed that THR steals more and more of my free time. I've spent many hours at nights trying not to neglect my family / work during the day.
So I'm glad about the little time off over the holidays and recharge my batteries for the new year.
Maybe next year we'll find solutions to take some of the load off me.
Thanks for the great time and the great races!
Thanks also to my wife, who gave me more free time than I deserved…
I wish you happy holidays and a happy, healthy new year 2021.
On last Sunday [THR] held his second celebration race around it´s second anniversary.
We drove the the 24 hours of Daytona with the ACL GTR Mod cars compressed in 2.4 hours.
We had both racer teams and solo racers at the start.
It was the second race simulating 24 hours in THR history.
And the second celebration race, was as good as the first one.
We had both racer teams and solo racers at the start.
The teams had to make a driver change during the race, which had to last 180 seconds.
The solo riders did not have to complete this stop, but instead received a time penalty.
Valentin Knechtel received shortly before the start that his teammate Müesli could not participate in the race due to technical problems.
Valentin therefore had to drive the race all alone.
Luckily he is used to long stints by participating in real simracing 24 hours races.
After a fight at the beginning of the race, he was able to pull away slightly and defend the lead until the finish.
Valentin after revealing his prize for winning the race.
What a lovely surprise, guys. THANK YOU!!
Margar, Nat Steveson and Stavros also showed a strong performance and chased Valentin the whole race.
Stavros managed the fastest lap of the race.

There are many untold stories from this race. But the spectators got their money's worth and the participants liked the day / night transition very much.
Congratulations to the winner, the podium finishers and every participant of this great experience!

The Participants agreed again that we should continue such long races in the future.
Maybe we will take this into account for our next championships.
