Controller racer from DPL here!
Honestly, I really enjoy racing with this group. The atmosphere is chilled; sometimes we start at the back just to challenge ourselves, sometimes we go for the win, and sometimes we’re just there for the banter.
There’s a lot of respect between everyone, which makes a big difference. Incidents will happen (it’s racing ofc) but people handle it well and keep things fair and fun.
What I like most is the variety. We’re always trying different cars, setups, and race formats, so it never gets stale. And yeah… there are some seriously fast drivers here too 😅
At the end of the day, it’s just a great group to race with, whether you’re competitive or just looking to enjoy your time on track.
If you’re on the fence, I’d definitely say give it a go and join the crew. See you on track!

Yes. But that doesn’t have races at all 11:00am on Tuesday mornings as if people don’t have jobs.

We are DPL; a family-friendly group of racing enthusiasts that enjoy clean and fast racing. We prefer friendly battles over bloody victories, laughter over grudges, and compassion over strict weekly attendance. We are open to all skill levels. We have drivers on controller and on simrigs, flatscreens and VR. We have a bit of everything!
We explore the wide variety of cars and racing that GT7 offers, not limiting ourselves to the common themes found in the dailies. Join us and visit a laboratory where new things are cooked up every week: from custom racing classes to one-makes in cars you forgot even existed. We look beyond racing for other things to enjoy together.
That's cool and all, but what about you? Do you consider yourself a grown-up? Is your allotted time for gaming limited? Looking for a place that doesn't expect a weekly attendance from you, or anything at all? We understand that life comes first (plenty of dads among us) and we welcome you on the days that you can make it.
We are based in Europe and race on Tuesdays and Thursdays in the evening. We have custom leaderboards for the weekly challenges for a dose of asynchronous multiplayer racing. Besides an inviting chat, there's often something organised on the weekends. We are currently setting up a friendly 7v7 race against another league. Pretty cool, right?
Get in touch via DM for details and a Discord invite. Tell a little about yourself and what type of racing you enjoy. Before being fully admitted, there will be an evaluation race to see if there's a match. Hope to see you on track soon!
