Formulas Cup. Round 2/5
One of the toughest races we've had so far. Without the aid of an electronic traction control we had to revert to old school driving - traction control is your foot!
Only 9 out of the 17 drivers in the starting grid made it to the end, so we salute them along with the podium winners!

CESAV's Turismo Cup Round 3 (Oct 17) will feature this car in FE3. Hopefully the LOD missing texture issue can be fixed, but it'll be a great race anyway. It's a wonderful mod! 
Turismo Cup. Round 2 of 6
South City custom layout... we can't wait to discover new neighbourhoods of this city, so we dared to run through some not so accessible streets, dreaming how the new version of this track will look like.
This one also was the fourth round of the Three Cups Challenge, meaning all three cups are now running.
Standigns so far are led by LCR»NeoN, followed by LCR»mem0 and FR™ MAXXIS in third position.

Turismo Cup. Round 1/6 Results
Hi there!
Just to let everyone know this little beauty will be featured in the first round of CESAV's Three Cups Challenge.
Race will be held on September 5.
Registrations to open on August 30.
Cheers,

Three Cups Challenge. Description, Rules, and Results.
The Three Cups Challenge is a contest consisting in three independent cups (5 to 6 rounds each) that will be held on alternate Mondays, starting on September 5 with the Turismo Cup, and until December 19.
The Challenge has a total of 16 rounds. 11 of them will be contested with a moded car.
Registrations will open on August 30, and drivers will have to register for each race they wish to participate in.
Each cup will have its own rules and standings, and a winner will be proclaimed upon completion. However, to be eligible for a podium position of the Challenge drivers must participate in all Three Cups.
As a general rule, a Turismo Cup rounds will be followed by a Formulas Cup round, and then a DTM Cup will follow before the cycle starts over again. Therefore, if you decide to participate in just one of the cups you will be racing one out of every three Mondays until the Challenge is over.
That being said, there is no obligation to follow a strict calendar. Registrations for each race are open to everyone and you are free to choose which ones suit you best, but if you don't follow a plan your chances to score high in the classifications will be significantly reduced.
Check out the Three Cups Challenge full schedule for details on race tracks and cars to be used. (*round length is still subject to revision. Official CESAV website schedule shall always prevail should any differences appear).
General rules applicable to all rounds

Third Round Results.
Next week we will also announce the Cup winner
Next week we will also announce the Cup winner
Didn't have that impression while racing, neither when watching the replay, but might be the case. Server is in the Netherlands and the other driver is from Argentina.
My ping is around 50/60. Sometimes there are spikes, but it's not a big deal, and I haven't experienced no lag issues since I started using a RJ45 connection instead of wifi.
In my last race I suffered a strange accident... maybe it shall be better understood in this video.

Congratulations to the winners!
Congratulations to the winners!
Thank you for your interest!
Check out the FAQ in our section here at lfs if you haven't yet.
https://www.lfs.net/forum/522-CESAV
Probably the problem is you have not filled in your lfs license name in your cesav profile.
Anyway, if you can't manage to fully register for a race after completing your profile or have any more questions send me a PM or post a message in the FAQ thread.
How to start your own team in CESAV
Hey, fellow racers!
There is no need to join an existing team to race in CESAV. Independent drivers are always welcome, but did you know you can start your own team?
It's easy. If you are an independent or don't want to race with your CESAV team anymore, you only need to find another driver willing to join you in this experience, and have the will to race together as a team.
When starting a team you will have your own private section at the CESAV forums, the possibility to share private setups between team members, and access to a private section in our Team Speak. Also, you will add not only personal points but team points as well in the teams championship.
Interested? Follow the steps indicated in this CESAV thread to begin.

CESAV FAQ and Sign-up process 101
Check out CESAV League page here in LFS for the lastest news and our racing calendar.
I don't speak any Spanish. Shall this be a problem?
No. CESAV hosts races gahering mostly European drivers as well as from the Americas, and while Spanish is our spoken language everyone is welcome. Our site is also available in English and we speak English too, so don't hesitate to leave a post below or contact us in our site if you need further information AFTER reading this FAQ =)
Do I need an S3 license to race in CESAV?
Any S2 licensed driver can join us, but only those with an S3 license will be able to race in Rockingham or join events using mods. While there will always be LFS stock car races in CESAV we're eager to find and try new cars!
Do I need to sign-up to race in CESAV servers?
Yes you do, and it is the usual sign-up process:
-Select a user name and a password.
-Provide a valid email and then validate your recently created account.
-Log-in and fill in your profile.
-VERY IMPORTANT: you must fill in your LFS license name in your CESAV profile, otherwise you won't be able to fully register for a race. See why below.
Other leagues do not require to sign-up. What are the advantadges of belonging in CESAV?
Though you are not required to join or be in a team to race with us, CESAV fosters team competion and a strong sense of community even for those who prefer to race as independent drivers.
Thus, our servers have an Insim programmed by the staff that collects and processes data while you're racing online. This is linked to your CESAV account (which is also linked to your LFS license) so you know how you're doing while racing online in our #Q server, and all sorts of statistics about your performance after a race.
Hence the need to sign-up and have a valid CESAV user linked to your LFS license name to participate in our events.
We'll never ask your for your LFS password and you should never use it in our site.
OK, I'm in. Now what?
First, please, check out CESAV rules. These are mostly common sense for any seasoned driver, but give'em a read anyway so you know what to expect. For instance, using the chat while racing is forbidden and overlooking this rule will be sactioned and cost you negative points after the race.
If you're new to Live for Speed, you may also check LFS Rules of Clean Racing.
Wait! Can I be really sanctioned in your league?
Yes, and there are two kind of possible sactions –Insim automatic (eg chatting while racing), and those resulting after a driver claimed against another driver.
Clams involving incidents between drivers or reckless driving are resolved by a board of judges to ensure a fair process. You can appeal at all times your sanction, but do it wisely –filibuster is also sanctioned ;-)
I want to race!
And we're expecting you! So this is what you've got to do:
1) Apply for the active race in the Registrations section. Click the Register button.
2) Fill in the details in the profile-page if needed, select a car when available, and validate.
3) You are now pre-Registered. That means that you're willing to race but you must set a lap time before you're allowed to race.
4) Go to CESAV #Q server and set your lap time by completing a full and clean lap (no shortcuts, no slipstreaming). Notice this server is password protected.
5) Now you're fully registered for the race and granted a position in the grid! (*)
I heard I'm not allowed to race in CESAV if I'm slow =(
Not true. All of us were rookies once, so any driver is welcome in CESAV as long as he wants to improve and behaves while racing. However we require you to be proficient with the selected track and car for that week's race.
How? =)
We set up a benchmark of 106% of the best time in the #Q server. You do your lap, you set a lap time within the benchmark –you're in! If you can't reach it don't worry. Keep trying, and when you complete 30 full laps in the #Q server you're in, no matter what lap time you set.
Are there a maximum number of laps to qualify?
Yes. You can improve your time up to 100 laps in the #Q server.
Any other servers where I can practice online besides the #Q server?
Affirmative. CESAV public server is open 24/7 and configured with that week's combination of track/car. There you can burn as much fuel and tyres as you want, and say hello to other fellow racers too!
The day of the race has arrived. Anything else to keep in mind?
Registrations will close at 21:30 CET (GMT+1, GMT+2 summer time), and a free practice session shall sart. Expect some restarts during practice around 22:00 CET so you can fine tune your first lap strategy, and to avoid first corner melees.
At 22:15 CET qualifying shall start. You will be in your box and Insim will show you the message "PreCalificación" in green typo followed by your division, if there is more than one.
There are two kinds of qualifying: timed (Insim will show you the ammount of time available) or single lap. In this later case wait for the Insim to call you. This is the procedure:
-Wait: remain in your box.
-Get Ready: run through the pit lane and wait before the exit line.
-Go: this is the green light.
At 22:30 CET you'll find yourself in the grid and a the insim will show the following message,a lso in green typo: "Carrera Oficial". This is the real deal. No turn back, and no restarts from then on.
Races usually take place in the public server, but it will be password protected since the practice session start (21:30 CET). The password is to be found in the registrations page, next to the server's name and above all driver's lap times' list.
Divisions shall be stablished if there are more than 32 pilots registered for a race. Your division's server and password will also be in the registrations page.
Notice that all drivers who failed to register before the deadline will be autmoatically kicked out by the Insim.
What Else?
Have fun!
(*) Two leg races, or one leg ones taking place in long circuits, start at 22:15 CET (GMT+1, GMT+2 summer time) without PreRace Qualifying. In this case your position in the grid shall be determined by your lap time set in #Q server during the registration process.
I don't speak any Spanish. Shall this be a problem?
No. CESAV hosts races gahering mostly European drivers as well as from the Americas, and while Spanish is our spoken language everyone is welcome. Our site is also available in English and we speak English too, so don't hesitate to leave a post below or contact us in our site if you need further information AFTER reading this FAQ =)
