Hi everyone,
Season 3 of the main Monday league and season 5 of the Wednesday sprint league have now finished - we hope those of you who could get involved really enjoyed racing in both seasons. It was great to see some awesome battles, clean driving and have a good chat after the races. Again congrats to the winners of each league season (@Flamebadger for the Monday season and @Cooper for the Wednesday season) and also to all those AM and SILVER drivers who have made some incredible improvements in the last couple months. There will definitely be some class promotions before the next season begins.
Special Events (Fun runs)
Speaking of which, we are now going to take a two week break from all ACC league racing while preparations are made for the next Monday night league season. During the two week break, we will run a special event each Monday night, as follows:
Update
We will try and open these events up to the public but with min. SA of 80 (hopefully attract some new drivers). If you you do not have 80 SA, you need to be on the whitelist to join the server. If you have competed in Monday leagues in the past, you will already be on the whitelist. If you have not, please put you steam GUID, first and last names, three letter abbreviation and preferred car number in a post in this thread.

Upcoming League Seasons
The next league season will be Season 4 of the Main Monday night league. This will be a multi-class event (depending on final sign-up numbers) and go for ten rounds, with a one week mid-season break (during which there will be another special event).
We will rest the Wednesday sprint league format for a moment and instead increase the focus on the Monday league. While we do this we will use Wednesdays as an informal practice night for the following Monday league round. There will be servers set up all week running the same track and conditions as the upcoming league round, but we encourage everyone to get together for some fun and practice on a Wednesday night if you can.
Sign-up for Monday League season 4 will commence on or about the 21st of September so keep an eye out for it and make sure you don't miss out! Season 4, Round 1 will likely kick off on October 5th - more details to follow!
The Admin Team
Last of all we - the admin team - would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for joining in and continuing to support these leagues after the sudden changes to admin team etc recently and what was honestly a bit of a confusing time! We have been trying hard since taking over to get to grips with all the jobs that need doing and learn all of the tools we need to use to do them - hopefully it hasn't been a totally horrible experience for anyone! Now we have a good plan for season 4 and we are really excited to get everyone signed up and crack on with what we hope will be the best season yet!
...so who is this 'we'? Glad you asked! The current admin team for ACC PC related things are:
@nanlatt
@krunch
@Flamebadger
@SteveDrivingSlowly
With support in the background from the epic Mr @Rolz and of course the legendary Mr @KoAStR.
If you ever have any questions, concerns, ideas, comments or complaints, please feel free to contact any of us here at the forum via private message, tag us in a forum post or hit us up on discord. We'd be more than happy to hear from you.
Looking forward to seeing you on track at the special events and to sharing more details about the upcoming league season with you!
