All-wheel-drive Winter Series 2025 final standings:




Championship spreadsheets


The 14th season of RGE's longest running annual league is concluded,now it's time to review the season. This year 2 slower cars were brought into racing in rallycross to reduce the tyre problems usually plagueing AWS 40 minutes long rallycross races - successfully as racers were able to focus more on racing itself,making this more like normal circuit racing on mixxed surfaces. But despite the efforts,this season went into AWS history as the 3rd least populated season and least attended since 2016. Both signups and actual competitors counts went down by 6 compared to previous season - there were only 28 signups and 20 actual participants,2 drivers (both were rookies) failed to score points,so only 18 drivers qualified themselves for season finale - 5 less than last season. Attendance did not range a lot - from 14 in round 4 to 9 in both last rounds,averaging 10.7 drivers per round,which is a drop by 1.9 compared to 2024 and 3.3 less than all time average.

AWS 2025 Drivers Champion: RGˆDzidoris
One of the most experienced AWS participants finally reached the top this season - Dzidoris was the rookie of the year back in 2017,when he finished 3rd in overall standings,since then he was the vice champion for 3 seasons and after low performance in latest 2 seasons,this year he went into series fully motivated - the lithuanian won the first 2 rounds and won another 2 out of latest 4 rounds,finishing in top4 in both other rounds. The 4 wins from this season puts him on the top of winningest drivers chart with 12,passing V.Lakūnas,who has 11. Also the 3 scored pole positions puts him on top of the respective chart as he has a total of 11,passing the same rival. Dzidoris is the 4th different lithuanian driver who scores AWS drivers champion title,which is 5th in total for the Lithuania.

The main rival to the champion this season was his teammate Falcon. The canadian scored his 1st ever AWS race win in round 3 in the 600m dirt oval,doubling the his total pole positions count to 4. Even if the points standings were tied after half of the season,Falcon could not beat his rival anymore in remaining races,settling for vice champions honor,which is 2 positions better than his previous best season result back in his rookie season in 2014. The defending 2-time series champion saw the competition running away early in the season and only due his 5th round race win was still mathematically eligible of his title defence,however he was not able to challenge for race win in season finale,ending him in 3rd position in standings.

AWS 2025 Rookie of the Year: Cyk
There was not much competition for this award - a total of 5 rookies participated (another 4 were signed up but never attended),3 of them just in a single round. So it was all up to the remaining 2 rookies - after round 4 the difference was just 7 points,however the 2nd place driver did not attend last 2 rounds,leaving this award to the french newcomer Cyk. He attended all 6 rounds,finishing in positions between 6th and 10th,finishing 6th in overall standings. Madjester was the fastest in qualifying for round 4,but finished just 6th in results - that's his best finishing result out of 2 tries,taking 11th position overall. 3rd best rookie was Nejc,who finished 10th in his only attended race. Last season's best rookie,the sim's veteran S.Martin did not sign up for this season.

AWS 2025 Cross Challenge winner: RGˆDzidoris
If overall title was his 1st,the Cross Challenge award is already Dzidoris' 3rd one - he was the best in rallycross rounds in 2017 and 2018,when we were still racing RB4 and FXR in rallycross tracks. This year he was the driver to beat in both Blackwood and Fern Bay rounds,where he lost just a single point from max possible,while he finished 3rd in the dizzy 600 meters oval,finishing in standings with 5 points gap over the 2nd placed driver who won that round. Falcon was 2nd best also in rallycross rounds,finishing 2nd in season opener and 4th in season finale. The defending award winner Sobis took 3rd position in standings,breaking the points tie with 4th placed driver due the better 2nd best finishing result.

AWS 2025 Oval Trophy winner: YES Sobis
Only successful defence of Sobis was Oval Trophy as he finished between best 2 in both rounds,winning the Winter 200 for the 3rd time - he's the only driver with multiple wins in this round. Despite being fastest in qualifying in both oval rounds and winning the 1st one,Falcon had to settle for 2nd position in standings also for this award,the overall champion was 3rd.

AWS 2025 Teams Champions: Race Green Autosports
The defending 8-time teams champions and series hosts dominated this season with both numbers and performance - already after 2/3 of the season the title was successfully defended and the team finished the season with round 100 points gap over competition. Besides drivers in standings top2 positions and their 3rd driver in 5th overall,the team collected a total of 5 race wins,16 top5 finishes,5 pole positions and 3 fastest laps of the race. The rest of teams standings podium were taken by best performing single driver teams - Yes Motorsports finished 2nd due Sobis' 3rd position in standings,taking home 1 race win,6 top5 finishes and a fastest lap of the race,Zafiralis profited by Thehemuli's performance,who finished 4th in standings,bringing home also 6 top5 finishes and 2 fastest laps of the race.

AWS 2025 Nations Cup winners: Lithuania
First 5 seasons of AWS went under flag of Latvia,next 5 seasons - under flag of Lithuania. Finland won standings in the last 3 seasons and according to plan should have won this and next,however their performance and numbers were rather low this season,so Lithiuania stepped back in the game to become all time best nation in AWS by scoring a record breaking 6th Nations Cup. Lithuanian duo of Dzidoris and Sobis scored a total of 5 race wins,12 top5 finishes,3 pole positions and 2 fastest laps of the race. Despite outnumbering champions in standings top10,Finland could not compete for the nations title,losing it by big margin of 70 points,finishing the season winless and all 6 top5 finishes and both fastest laps of the race were scored by their best driver of the season Thehemuli. Canada finished 3rd in nations standings with sole performance of the vice champion - it's the first ever nations podium for the north american country in AWS,earning the position from 1 win,5 top5 finishes and two fastest laps of the race.

Race Green Events thanks all participants and wishes much success in all other leagues and events they are taking part. We hope you enjoyed racing in AWS and you all get much fun and valuable experience from the races.
Feel free to use this thread and share your experience through out the series!


With attendance numbers decreasing constantly for past 4 seasons,lots of question marks are raising over the future of this league. Current idea is to plan another season in 2026,most likelly dropping one more round to make the season a bit easier and see how in goes before making any decisions.

* PENALTIES :
W/ kyr1l? - receives 30 seconds penalty added to his finish time for unsupported equippment (configuration with lightbar).

- - - - - - - - - -

A custom configuration in Fern Bay hosted the 2nd round of RandomCar 2025 Series and it went pretty much under sign of LFS's own XRT - the classic front engined rear wheel drive coupe was drawn to 3 drivers,one run only during pre-round practice,set the fastest laptime,but never joined the actual event,other 2 were best 2 drivers of the round,switching positions and leading laps. 25 drivers qualified for the race,which is pretty much league's all time average attendance,one of them was so displeased with the car,did not start while other driver retired from race,leaving us with 23 finishers. Despite several complaints about drawn cars,no driver has still used the redraw option,available once per season.

The leading duo was joined by 3rd driver with different car,however it was still decided by XRT drivers - the 2nd place starter Master led the latest 7 laps of the 11 laps race and despite competition's attempts was able to defend race lead also during the hectic last lap,clinching his 1st ever RandomCar race win (previous best was 5th place). For 2nd race in row,the 2nd position in finish is Dodislaw,who started the race from pole position (his first),but led just 4 laps before conseding to rival,finishing less than half a second apart race winner. If he would not have sinned with forbidden config,podium would have seen 2nd place finishers teammate on it,however after penalty kicked in,Twincam was promoted to 3rd position in official results,repeating his personal best result,this time running Piran Firefly.


2 second place finishes and several bonus points puts Dodislaw into commanding 10 points lead in drivers standings,2nd currently is 2023 series champion R.Kardol,who got a car quite unsuited for the twisty Fern Bay track,costing him standings lead. Just 2 points away from 2nd position are Nosle and Thehemuli,the former is ahead on tiebreaker for better finishing position.

Drivers standings leader's team has also taken over the lead in teams standings - Sosiski racing is 2 points ahead of defending vice champions and 2023 champions RGA,Team S1dus is 3rd with 12 points gap to leaders. No change in top of nations standings,2-time champions Finland has also lost some ground and are trailing by 9 points now,Poland has jumped up to 3rd position now. Following success in this round,XRT has taken over best car award standings lead and is now 6 points ahead of Nortz. Fraud Wheeler and LFS's own licenced real world car Raceabout are 3rd and 4th in points tie.


29 cars were drawn for this round for 43 drivers,however 18 of them did not attend,so the field represented 21 different cars in this round. The favourite car for the randomizer this time was XM-5,which was drawn for 4 drivers,3 of them were present on the grid. Talot remains all time most drawn car even without a single draw for this round.
Master did not score 1st win just for himself,but also for his car - XRT's previous best race result was 3rd,achieved by Nosle and Arska. N.400S' best qualifying result before this round was 6th position,also achieved by 2 different drivers Pedro and Fnatic,now it was improved by Kyril,who qualified 3rd - with his penalty he missed secured new best finishing result for the car,which stays 5th place finish. R.Kardol's results with Fend Torus also went into series history as best ever - 10th in qualifying is 4 positions better than J.Lavrikov's achievement while 11th place finish is just a position better than Arska's result.

Round 3 will be run in Kyoto - in a configuration that's a bit shorter than the one used last year. The 3.19km configuration known as Kyoto North consists of the oval's turn 2 and infield section and it will be run in anti-clockwise direction. Also BZG coupe has been nominated for voting which will take place after next round together with 2 other cars not nominated yet.

This car has much too low drag - 464N @ 40m/s allows to reach close to 290km/h,which for saloon car with 245hp engine is unrealistic. Probably value just a bit below LFS original 640N would be appropriate.

There is one change between 2025 rounds 1 and 2 - sadly it's a removal of a high quality sporty car. The 2020 HIRO CCF2 has been updated with lower performance,making the car uncompetitive in PL200 class,therefor we have no choice but to retire the car from RandomCar.

In it's short time in the RandomCar Series,the 2020 HIRO CCF2 was drawn just twice (additionally it had another 2 draws in the pre-season test race),used just once - Houssem.221b qualified it in 18th position in 2025 season opener and raced it up to 13th position in finish,which happen to be marked as car's best results that might never be beaten.

Race statistics / RTFR .mpr folder / Event rating and other statistics (will be updated later this week)


After 2 well attended rounds,this one suffered a minor setback - the LFS classic XRT racing in a custom circuit layed in the Layout square did not seem to be an appealing combination for many usual RTFR guests. 22 drivers started the race,marking the lowest number of this relativelly new year,however most of them had their share of fun during the race as you can see on livestream recording - there were plenty of battles for positions.

To defend the honor of track builders,team S1dus arrived with 3 of their most regular drivers in this racing series,2 of them were main favourites for taking the race win and keeping the team's winning streak in races with XRT alive. R.Kardol was beaten in qualifying,so he had to start from outside of front row,however he kept following the polesitter early in the race until he found a way past him - the dutchman took over race lead on lap 8 and kept it for the remaining 11 laps to score his quarter-century race win,setting also fastest lap of the race when trying to run away - that's R.Kardol's 18th of those,while he also started the 2nd century of top5 earning by scoring his 101st. Gábor was the fastest in qualifying,scoring his 39th pole position,but unlike in most races latelly,he was not able to use it to score another win in his 100th RTFR race - the hungarian had to settle for 2nd place finish,scoring his 76th top5 finish. However he put this race in history books for other reason - finishing just 0.3 seconds behind race winner,this was the 18th closest finish between all 353 races. Adam scored his best ever qualifying position by being the 3rd fastest in session,improving his personal best by a single position,despite some struggles during the race he returned in the same position for the race finish,repeating his best race result and scoring his 6th top5 finish. Also Thehemuli started his 100th RTFR race and also he was able to put the anniversary race into top5 counting position - he finished 4th being included in same position fights as both in front and behind him drivers,scoring his 18th top5 finish,top5 was closed by the slowest trackowners driver of the day - Unite scored his 93rd top5 finish.

VOD at Youtube:


Next week RTFR takes a break and leaves the server free for some RandomCar action - round 2 of the season will be run in a custom track at Fern Bay,which is very similar to Black Alternate configuration,however it does not use the track part with original starting grid and pitlane,cutting the track over Cadet's connection between roads. In 2 weeks RTFR will return as usually with one of the slick tyre cars - some information about combo can be heard in the livestream recording in video above. In 3 weeks RTFR XL will feature one of the most difficult cars from approved cars list - the wild McLarry D8M will be make the list complete by being featured now in all 3 RTFR versions (including the neglected RTFR CCCC). The drivers will have to tackle Aston's 8 kilometers long Historic configuration for estimated 33 laps (lapcount will be calculated using fastest laptime of qualifying session).

(browse for various championships and single round results)


The 2025 season started with a very slow and and also finished with very similary slow car,but unlike season opener,this was a well known car - the 660cc engined K-car with AWD drivetrain was run in Fern Bay's Rallycross track for 2nd year in row,however the attendance was significantly lower than last year as only 9 drivers arrived to tackle the dusty course. With championship on the line,the top6 drivers arrived and raced for their final positions in standings,however just one of them was successful with position gain - 4 drivers just defended their positions.

The 3-time AWS vice champion and (before the race) tied winningest driver in league's history came into final round as standings leader. He needed just a 2nd place finish,however he obviously wanted to finish the season as a race winner - Dzidoris started the race from pole position (his 11th - now all time most) and led every single lap to score his 12th AWS race win,4th this season,leaving no doubts about championship outcome. Thehemuli qualifed just 4th,but found pace during the race,setting also fastest lap of the race when chasing leader late in the race,finishing on podium position for the 1st time this season. The defending champion was the number 3 of the day - he qualified 3rd,finished 3rd and that being 3rd in standings,successfully defending the position.


Full season recap will be posted within 2 weeks.

Back then in Aston it wasn't that noticable,but today we're racing in Rockingham and something stung in my eyes right away - car's shadow (raised the car so it's better visible). I guess for better quality some LOD2 improvements are required.

Quote from TheStigUSA :Don't insult me because I happened to be born in a place where they use mile, that's not my fault.

Wow,chill,you should not feel personally insulted by a joke about a country stubbornly sticking to non-SI units.
Quote from TheStigUSA :I have an engineering background in the real world

...and yet you talking about downforce while editing drag. Razz Sorry,no intention to insult,just pointing out some misalignment of definitions - removing the negative lift surely also helped to make the car more realistic on technical side. Even of your calculations are correct - I'm still wondering if it would be really possible to reach 380km/h with 560 horsepower motor with car like this,as it is quite a large block. I wonder if Tesla made the announced Cd a bit better than it actually is. Uhmm

I did not vote,but checked the car in garage and here's what's wrong from first glance:
- as many do,also you sinned in aerodynamics part - the car has such extremelly low drag,that it allows to exceed 400km/h (translating to your ancient units,that's 250mph),which is way past realistically possible for such car. Also you have added downforce,however I seriously doubt if a sedan type car generates anything more than the amount that counters car's natural lift from air that gets trapped in wheel arches.
- power seems to be higher than real world's counterpart has - quick research led me to 365kW max power available,however this depends if you're going for proper replica.
- also regarding quality - LOD2 has holes in model,probably looks very weird from distance,LOD3 seems to be autogenerated by editor,you should tweak it closer to actual form of body.

Round 6



Sunday, 3rd March
18:30 UTC / 19:30 CET / 20:30 EET


Just like last year also this year round 6 is Jamaican Trophy where a car with K-car background will be raced around Fern Bay's rallycross track,the big difference is - last year it was the penultimate round,this year - the season finale which will decide fate of 3 individual titles. 740 kilograms weight coupled with 660 cc engine does not sound like a proper racing machine,but it's still a challenge to be fast - finding the tenths gain over rivals will be crucial in qualifying,keeping the pace through 59 kilometers race - deciding factor for good season ending.

Both non-individual awards have found their new (and also old) owners,but there are still 3 individual awards that need their holders - with 4 points gap between top2 in drivers championship means there's a lot of intrigue for season finale,while in case of some failure,there's the 3rd driver,who can still upset top2. Also Cross challenge award is still up for grabs as this will be 3rd and final round for the award. As always only drivers with at least one point scored from previous 5 rounds can take part in final race - this year only 18 drivers have qualified for round 6.

It's been a while since a high difficulty car was featured in RTFR XL,this week it was the 6 running of the fastest aids free standard LFS car Formula V8. There were few more powerful cars latelly,however with low weight the 450 horsepower single seater is known being quite a challenge and Kyoto's longest standard configuration in reversed direction added plenty of spice to this challenge. 21 drivers qualified for the race (repeated lowest in latest 5 races),all of them stood also on grid. 5 drivers retired from this race,interestingly all within laps 6 to 9 in the race - all others run until they saw chequered flag,10 best even after completing all 39 race laps.

This race went into RTFR XL history as a driver managed to set a new all time record - for the first time ever a driver won more than 4 races in row. Gábor Was the fastest in qualifying by almost a second,scoring his 17th pole position and setting himself on path for the new record. The hungarian led the first 14 laps until his pitstop and regained the lead after his closest rival's pitstop,keeping it despite his 2nd visit of the pitlane - eventually everything was clear as Gábor crossed the finish line as race winner for the 5th time in row,15th overall,scoring also his 16th fastest lap of the race and 25th top5 finish. The combo selector used his selection to improve his best finishing result for the 2nd race in row - he finished 2nd this week,beating his last month's result by a position. The lowest step on podium was taken by fastest finn of this race - Thehemuli repeated his best position and added 6th top5 finish to his stats. Ohnifus scored his 3rd top5 finish by finishing 4th,top5 was closed by the only other driver with lead laps - Zesty scored his 5th top5 finish from 10 total race finishes,climbing a position in final results due his teammate's penalty.

* FUN FACT OF THE MONTH :
This was the 6th race with FO8 and 3rd with FO8 in Kyoto - interestingly all Kyoto races are noticable in FO8's attendance chart. The first ever visit resulted in car's lowest ever attendance number (7),the other 2 are 2 highest attended FO8 races,this week's race being just 2nd highest. It was also 3rd race in Kyoto GP Long reversed configuration - all 3 of them have been run with 3 very different mid-engined cars.

* CLOCK PITTER OF THE RACE :
Seems like it could be possible to finish this race without any pitwork,however noone attempted it and mention simply goes to owner of shortest legal pitstop time - 8th place finisher S.Martin got a new set of tyres and some fuel during his 10.06 seconds pitstop,improving also his best result in both sessions.

* FIELD RUSHER OF THE RACE :
9 positions gain during the race is the best progress,made by Jsk,who qualified 16th and rallied up to 7th position,3 positions higher gain than the one of 2nd best in this chart.

For the 2nd race in row the top2 finishers are locked out of combo selection,so 3rd place finisher is the one to select what we will race in 4 weeks. Thehemuli however has not submitted his choice yet - he still has time until next tuesday - once known,it will be announced in our Discord server and in next RTFR results. Winner of it however will not be able to select combo for 100th RTFR XL - this honor will be relayed to community as there will be a public poll to decide car and track for the 100 minutes long centurial race. Next week RTFR will return to it's usual 30 minutes + 1 lap distance in 353rd RTFR,running a standard car in custom track. Tuesday in 2 weeks will be mixxed cars field as a result of randomising car selection - yes,it's time for 2nd round of RandomCar!

Not sure if it's the right place to report this - developers/moderators,feel free to move to correct forum section and or rename the thread.

Today guys pointed out an unrealistic laptime in stats of RTFR server,so I downloaded the mpr (attached also here) to check how it was done. Well,in this case it's very obvious and if noticed,it's a simple ban from server and case closed. What worries me - if something like this is possible in such large scale,maybe it's also possible to improve laptimes just by a little,gaining a second or two per lap,hidden behind latency from other continent,it might be even unnoticed to server admins. Is there any solution to detect this?
