Now To Go Racing
For the purpose of the guide we show you what happens when you click on Quick Races. Under the Race header you will click on Quick Races and you will now see all of the available races for the day. You will see the races that have already been completed, which races are available to register for and what races are coming up later.
On the right you will see the session details of the events including the practice, qualifying and race lengths, with the track and car selection below. When you click on ‘register’ you will be taken to a new page to actually sign up for your race.
When you fill out the registration form to sign up for your desired race, you will be asked to select your platform, car class and car and then for one final time hit register.
You’ll then be taken to your event info page that will show you how to access the lobby with the lobby name and password needed to join, along with further confirmation of the event you are entering. If you sign up early enough there will be a countdown until it is revealed, with a fresh prompt popping up letting you know the lobby name and password can now be revealed.
Find Your Results
When you complete a race you will be able to go and see the results history and break down the race with analysis via your new Grid Feed in your driver profile area. This is also one of the areas we have vastly improved for a better player experience whilst on SimGrid.
