ACC GT3 SPRINT SERIES - SEASON 8
Our ACC GT3 Sprint Series is our mid-week sprint league on Assetto Corsa Competizione and is streamed live on our YouTube channel.
Asia/Pacific is hosted on Wednesday & Thursday nights.
Europe is hosted on Thursday nights.
North America is hosted on Thursday nights.
The series is live stewarded, with a licence point system and attendance system through our Discord. Poor attendance will result in the removal of your entry into this series and potential exlusion from future series.
It is a mixed driver skill class series (Pro, Pro-Am & Am), with a maximum of 44 drivers per split. Classification takes place prior to the season, with time trials and 1 pre-season race.
Drivers can select from one of the 12 cars available to use throughout the season. This car cannot be changed and must be used throughout the entire season, no exceptions.
The season is comprised of 6 regular season rounds, with ballast being added to selected cars at certain circuits (TBC).
We won’t be delaying the release of the schedule this season due to the addition of ballast above.
Finals have been removed from the Sprint calender in Season 8, and will be held and hosted externally to the series, post-season.
