At XCL, our goal has always been simple — to deliver the best possible racing experience for everyone, from new drivers to seasoned pros. As the community continues to grow, we’re taking the next step forward and refining our event structure to put quality over quantity.

This isn’t about cutting back — it’s about making every race count. Fewer scattered servers, stronger grids, clearer formats, and more exciting racing.

🟢 Daily Sprint — Our Core Event

Open for all // 30 minutes // only fuel Pit-Stop // one week-one track

Our “Starter” races will now be called Daily Sprint. Why? Because they’re not just for starters. These daily 30-minute races are where the action happens — open and accessible, but with room for both rookies and experienced drivers to enjoy clean, competitive racing.

🧡 Pro Grid — On Demand for the Fastest

Open with SR5+ // alternative for advanced driver

For experienced drivers, Pro Grid will be available on demand. Whenever Daily Sprint servers are full or for planned special events, Pro Grid offers a space for high-level, clean racing with an SR 5 requirement. This ensures pros have their place — without excluding anyone from the main racing flow.

🔴 Daily Advanced — More Depth, More Variety

Open for all // 45 minutes // 25 seconds mandatory standing time

For those who want a bit more strategy and challenge, Daily Advanced will offer 45-minute races with dynamic weather and a mix of classes. SR entry remains accessible, but the format rewards consistency and racecraft.

🟠 Weekly Highlights — Multiclass & Endurance Stay Strong

You know it // You love it!

Our popular Multiclass and Endurance events remain untouched. These formats already deliver the kind of grid sizes and quality battles we want to build on. We’ll continue to support and grow these events as cornerstones of the XCL schedule.

📈 A Lower SR Barrier — A Stronger Grid

We’re also lowering SR entry requirements, making it easier for more drivers to join. But that doesn’t mean lower standards. We’ll continue to enforce clean racing through reporting and stewarding, ensuring quality stays high.

🏎️ The Next Step for XCL

This is a refinement of what already works. By focusing on fewer, stronger races, clear formats, and inclusive access, we’re making XCL racing better, fairer, and more exciting for everyone.
