On Saturday January 30th, The Privateer’s Pitbox’ first ACC championship made its debute with a double header sprint race as part of our Ginetta Cup. While the first race on Monza was positioned as an easy race to start with, race number two at Brands Hatch thrust our competitors out of their comfort zones by adding rain to the equation. In the video above, I comment on the events as captured by the highlight reel. If you’d rather watch my point-of-view instead, here’s my Twitch-VOD. Below you can find a little supporting summary...
On Saturday January 30th, The Privateer’s Pitbox’ first ACC championship made its debute with a double header sprint race as part of our Ginetta Cup.

Last week, I announced The Privateer’s Pitbox’ first ACC Championship, the Ginetta Cup. Alongside, I offered to make liveries for participants based on the full custom livery I had made myself.

There are still some spots left if you want to race with us. You can...
Another succesful edition of the 90’s DTM mini-competition last night means we’re continuing on with another one.

Yesterday, I announced the Ginetta Cup, organized by our start-up community ‘The Privateer’s Pitbox‘. In it, four screenshots of a uniquely liveried Ginetta were featured. That livery was custom made by yours truly as a promo for the Cup. The idea was never to only use it for promotional ends. No. I build this livery with the intention to make many, many variations. I made it modular. This means it is possible for me to easily change the colors. But why? Well, basically because I want to whore out my...

Yesterday evening was the inaugural event for The Privateer’s Pitbox. A total of 12 people registered to participate, which was more than enough to create a fun evening with some semi-serious racing going on. I regard it as a successfull launch, hence we are organizing a second event on the 14th featuring a slightly revised setup. More on that later, first, lets look back at yesterday’s event (of which you can view my perspective in this stream)! The 90’s DTM Mini-competition #1 The first race was at Brands Hatch (GP)....
