RH Live! Rising Stars Shootout

Sometimes, the greatest summit you have to climb isn't the final battle for the world championship title, but the very first step you choose to take. Welcome to Racing Heart Universe, a play-by-post racing simulation where you step into the positions of a race engineer and a team principal. Tactics rule the day in the motorsport world of RHU; from engine modes, pit strategies, and tire compounds, the choices you make will make a huge impact on track.
The Rising Stars Shootout is that first step for you; our classic GT racing format, but shrunken down to a one-day single race event. Take control of one of four AM teams, or bring your own from the Queen's Reign campaign.
Note: If you can't make the live session, I'll be livestreaming it on Twitch. In that case, watch this thread for a quick tutorial on how to send setups and pit strategies ahead of time so you can still participate.
