Hi Rick, Maybe check us out: https://forum.studio-397.com/index.php?threads/vrc-gt3-series.54140/ Our GT3 series is starting soon. We have last pre-season race on this week's Sunday and after that we have points races every Sunday (total of 8 races). See you on track! -Matt
Rick to answer your question, Online action has been steadily picking up since S397 did away with the online subscription. I have personally seen alot more traffic on our servers since that happened. If you are looking for instant action races you will still have some difficulty as the active servers still tend to be focused on practice for league races. However, many servers allow the practice session to follow its natural timer to qual and races so long as the people on the server at that time are keen to run a race. Our servers are set to 60 minute practice with 10 min qual and 5 lap races. Many other servers are set similarly. If you simply want to get on and run a race without any practice or warmup then rF2 is probably not for you. AC has servers running nothing but races, if you have the DLC and want to run Spa. However, they also have a fair number of crash kiddies. (not as many as before, but they are still present). You will find almost none of that on rf2 servers. If you want the best simulator around that is being actively developed and improved then look no further than rF2. The future is bright under the new ownership.
