Description and Instructions

Welcome to the 7th edition of The Ricky Taylor Grand Prix β€” The Worldwide Edition! 🌍 This time we're taking Gr.3 racing around the globe: three 90-minute races across three continents, one for each of GT7's regions! Three tracks, three very different challenges, one combined championship.

And there's a twist this time β€” after every race, the grid reverses based on the previous result, so nobody gets to hide at the front! We open in the Americas with a tyre-management test, head to Europe for a race under random weather, and finish on the toughest road in racing for a full fuel-saving endurance sprint.

βš™οΈ Event Details

  • Format: 3 Γ— 90-minute races, one per region β€” combined championship

  • Grid: Race 1 set by qualifying (10 mins). Races 2 & 3 use a reverse grid based on the previous race's result (top 15). I'll start every race at the back and race purely for the entertainment β€” I won't take any championship points, so the podium is all yours! 🏁

πŸ“ How to Register

Sign up on The SimGrid to be listed for the race. This one is first come, first served β€” the first 15 drivers to register go straight onto the grid to join me (16 total). Anyone who registers after the 15th entry goes onto the reserve list, and gets called up if one of the grid drivers has to drop out.

Selected drivers get all the final details 2 days before the race β€” lobby settings, fuel consumption/tyre wear multipliers for each track, the full reverse-grid procedure, and everything else you'll need for race day.

We're all about clean, respectful racing, so keep it fair and competitive. Whether you're a regular in our lobbies or it's your first time joining, this is a great chance to push yourself and race across the world with the community. See you on track! πŸŽοΈπŸ’¨
