The GT4 Sprint Cup is a GT4 sprint series organized by New Dimension Racing (NDR), using the N.400S GT4 (F1A4EF) vehicle mod created by Aleksandr_124rus. Its inaugural season was held in 2024. The event requires signing up, signup is free.
History
On December 31, 2023, NDR announced their newest series, the GT4 Sprint Cup. The series run its three-round inaugural season for three consecutive Sundays between January 14-28, 2024. Since vehicle mods were introduced to LFS in version 0.7A, the usage of custom cars in league has become inevitable. NDR decided to use the N.400S GT4 (F1A4EF) mod by Aleksandr_124rus for the first season. Originally, the plan was to make it a fixed setup series, but NDR held off on that idea. Here is what they said about it:
Our initial hope was to make this a fixed setup series, but we are going to hold off on that part and instead, go for the season in a traditional sense - bring your own setup.—dekojester, NDR
Regardless of the initial setup dilemma, the series turned out to be a popular one, with 54 entries having participated in at least a single session, over the span of three rounds.
Format
Two races per meeting, 20 minutes + 1 lap in duration. Following a 20-minute Free Practice session, the Qualifying used the semi-hardcore mode, meaning drivers were only allowed to spectate/telepit from within the pit lane. If one spectated/telepitted from the track, their qualifying session was over.
| Start Time | Session | Session Duration |
|---|---|---|
| 15:00 UTC | Free Practice | 20 minutes |
| 15:30 UTC | Qualifying | 20 minutes |
| 16:00 UTC | Race 1 | 20 minutes + 1 lap |
| 16:50 UTC* | Race 2 | 20 minutes + 1 lap |
