New to Transatlantic Sim Racing, or thinking about joining? Here are the questions we get asked most. If yours isn't here, ask us on Discord.
Racing with TSR
What sim do you race in?
Our racing is on Le Mans Ultimate (LMU). Over the years we've also raced in RaceRoom, Assetto Corsa Competizione and rFactor 2, but LMU is our home today, with its endurance and multiclass racing in the world of WEC.
What day and time do you race?
We normally race on a Monday evening, on European time (UK evening). Each event page shows the exact date, practice, qualifying and race times for every round.
Do I have to pay to join?
No. We don't charge for racing or for membership. You just need your own copy of Le Mans Ultimate, plus any paid DLC cars or tracks that a championship uses - the event page tells you what you need.
What kind of events do you run?
Mostly championships, usually one at a time, plus the odd one-off social race. Many of our events are multiclass, with faster and slower classes sharing the track, just like real endurance racing.
Where are your drivers from?
Across the UK, Europe and North America - hence the name. TSR was started by drivers on both sides of the Atlantic.
Joining
How do I join TSR?
Three steps:
- Join our Discord - race information, sign-ups and results all happen there.
- Follow TSR on The SimGrid, where our championships are run.
- Pick an event from our events and register for it on SimGrid.
The Get Racing page walks you through it.
Do I need to be fast or experienced?
No. Drivers of all levels race with us. Clean, respectful racing matters far more to us than outright pace, and there's always someone close by to race with.
Do I need a wheel?
A wheel and pedals are recommended for close, consistent racing, but what matters most is that you can drive cleanly and predictably around other cars.
Can I use my own livery?
Yes. In our LMU championships you can add a custom livery to your entry - our livery guide shows you how.
On race night
What happens if there's an incident?
Any driver can report an incident from the event page after the race. Our stewards review each report and can give penalties and licence points, which are published with the results.
Are your races streamed?
Yes - many of our races are broadcast with commentary from Guss, our commentator.
Do you have tools to help me prepare?
