League leaderboards are ordered by points which accumulate from all your played sessions during the week.
Points per race = finish position inverted + bonus for finishing higher than players with a higher skill rating. NEW: quit/disconnect players are now counted in your race points; if you are in a lobby at cutoff time you can continue to race but points don’t accumulate. See the League Info thread or FAQ for explanation about skill rating and Division placement. Credit payouts for each division are awarded based on the leaderboard after the League has reached its end date.
See ManteoMax.com or KudosPrime.com or this thread for a list of cars by Division. Unless otherwise specified, Leagues use Damage=Cosmetic, Collisions=On, Tuning=Allowed, Upgrades=Allowed to the maximum of the specific class restriction. Cars must be currently configured to meet the lobby restriction to appear as available options in the Rent/Buy/My Cars lists, so the list of Rental cars may be partial or empty. You can change your own Assists by selecting your gamertag in the lobby.

Couldn’t really enjoy the Miata league due to the massively-distracting mirror bug in the cockpit, but I think the Rad solves that by not having a mirror at all
I wish we could turn damage off. It was originally requested to deal with shunters but the longer format races seem to have taken care of that problem (who would have thought races with 24 cars and only 3 laps would lead to impatience?), and now sim damage is just annoying, especially since it’s so inconsistent and random.
This car is HARD to drive. But it’s a blast when you get it right. I only had time for 2 races today, so I’m not comfortable with the car yet, but I had a blast sliding around and trying to stay under control. It was fun even tho I was hardly close to being fast.
This is getting ridiculous now, week after week the same basic mistake! I think whoever is in charge of putting these leagues together needs to have a word with themself.
Edit: 4 laps of nordschliefe with the GP bit, 64 miles and more than half an hour.
I just quit out if Nurb Full or Nordeschleife come up now. It’s a great challenge for hot-lapping but dreadful for racing, and the more laps it has the worse it gets.
Had a few races in the Radical, it was fun and hard to use. I tried it with traction control and hated every lap, it’s way too sensitive. It felt much better without it tbh.
Don’t like the Radical, as Mike says it’s terrible with traction on, I hate traction control on this game.
Without is OK but it’s just not fun to drive nor is it easy. Think I’ll skip this week.
The radical an awesome and rewarding car when you get it right. You have to be really patient. Use some of that throttle control we all were able to practice in the mx5.
Did a bit of Radical the other night before my game went loopy on me… was a lot of fun (Minus the annoying fact I couldn’t miss the damned start line pile ups).
So nice of some of the Elite drivers to revert to Professional standard in the Radical league this week, forever rounding a bend to find a pile up - three pitstops to repair damage on Prague Short is a tad excessive.
And its always the same few that cause these “accidents” too, very frustrating
Just spent 40 minutes slogging around Nurburgring full attempting to get a clean lap for next race start at least and what pops up next ? Top Gear. I mean really? What an utter waste of my time…
