So if i register here

https://www.dirtgame.com/leagues/league/45689/pist...

and do that event it will register my times? (or should i say crashes smile )

Edit: it says next event is is Col de Turini, which isn't on the league page...am I doing the wrong one? It only shows that one when I search leagues for piston
What system are you on?

I think there was a 'piston-heads2' set up on Steam (by mistake!) so, that might be the one you've joined. If you're on PS4, the one you want is here: https://www.dirtgame.com/uk/leagues/league/45759/p...

This is a secondary group for those of us who wanted more than one event a week and is PS4 exclusive.

The 'main' league, which we're trying to cobble together as some sort of cross-platfor affair (again, assuming you're PS4) is here:-

Try and link it to the PC/PS4 one. Only 2 events this season, but will make it much larger next go round smile (see dirt rally cross platform wiki).

Really shouldn't have bothered attempting a couple stages tonight, to say I'm driving like a complete bell end is an understatement! Big spin on stage 1 as someone came upstairs to tell me something massively unimportant, before losing the headlights in stage 2!

Oh my lord. That first stage, it's not *too* bad, thought I would get an amazing screenshot of the mahoosive jump near the end.... but my scooby looks like a pug dog. Thanks to the 5 trees leaping out of the undergrowth.

Good job it was custom event, hem hem.

So I went straight into second stage, in the interests of the spirit of the competition.

I jumped on the xbox league and put in a respectable time on the first stage, then in sector one of the second stage I blew out a rear tyre in a sideways impact with a tree, before limping to the finish miles off pace. Whoops. No restarts is maybe a bit geeky for me.

As we're not all seasoned Forza pro's with families and social lives, perhaps do we need to block assists and restarts? The assists are a major hamper on performance anyway so offer no advantage and the restarts will stop people wandering off if they bin it

Go to dirtgame.com and log in. Click leagues, search for 'PistonheadsPC' and join. I will approve it today. Then click on your name, click account management and link your account to steam. The next time you start the game it should update the league info. Post your racenet name here. If you read back a bit, should see a wiki article with leaderboard.

Does anyone have this on the xbox one with a wheel? I have a thrustmaster tx and hope it works properly, but reading online suggests it may not be wholly compatible?

Game looks brilliant though!

Accepted. Link your account and you should be good to go! You got in at just the right time, there are still 5 days or so left of the first event. It's only 2 events this season, so should be fairly short. Next one, if interest maintains, should be a bit longer. It's a bit of a fiddle, as the system cannot cope with different platforms, so you have to kludge it and co-ordinate with people (spackle and lel) to set up the same events at the same time with the same classes etc. to make sure the times are relevant.
