Ive been signed up since they announced it, and I'm sure it'll be good fun racing a bunch of new people. Hope to see a lot of you guys out there, and if anyone wants to get some practice in, lets set a time up and go for it. Battle Machine unite.

So, ive been tuning up an eclipse for the race events, but it wont let me use it, even if i make it stock, the only one of my career cars that shows up that i can use is my cosworth, witch isnt even one of the allowed cars for the tournament. so, what are the requirements for cars, cause its close to starting and i want a good car, but wasted effort on my eclipse

Its a little late but it appears if you have 2 blueprints on one car then it cant get into tier 1 or tier 2 races
