Welcome to the FITT Nurburgring Nordschleife shootout, v2.0
DATES & DEADLINES:
Tuning - January 23rd - February 3rd
I'll be using a version of Krekme's deadline "when I get home from work" on the 4th, for any late-runners. Everyone in the world will easily have passed the 3rd by then.
Testing - February 3rd - February 17th
I'll be using a version of Krekme's deadline "when I get home from work" on the 18th, for any late-runners. Everyone in the world will easily have passed the 17th by then.
CARS:
Any road car* that fits into 450PP or 550PP* by any means possible, except having low mileage.
*No race cars, RM's, tuner cars*, or DLC.
*No cars with adjustable front downforce.
*No cars with a higher front aero value (fixed) than 20.
*Tuner car is defined as follows:
Any car with the name of the original manufacture* of the type of vehicle.
Examples:
Nissan makes the 350Z, so a NISMO 350Z is a 350Z that is not called a "Nissan", therefore it is banned.
The Ford SVT Mustang Cobra R is called a "Ford", therefore it is allowed.
*Exceptions:
RUF
Tires:
450PP - SH
550PP - SS
REGULATIONS
Road cars only. No race cars, tuner cars, RM's, or DLC.
No adjustable front aero, maximum allowed front aero is 20 and must be fixed.
All cars must not gain power/pp during testing. My experience + someone's recent cracking of GT5 says this takes 186 miles, or 300km's. Not all mileage counts, aka online free run and offline speed test come to mind. Bob is still the best breaker-in.
Shootout Specific Rules:
1. Testers must PM CSLACR a DC rating and feedback for every car/tune in the class they test.(one line basically describing the cars handling is enough if you find it difficult to express)
2. Testers may not publicly share DC ratings or feedback, it will all be released simultaniously. (I'll have to hold a gentleman's agreement that I won't view the ratings or feedback until testing is completed)
3. It is the tuners burden to add testers to their friends list, please add or send FR's to all known testers by the end of the tuning deadline.
Scoring:
We'll be using a modifed version of MCH's scoring system mostly altered by JohnnyPenso, which is 90% of the scoring based on lap time, and 10% based on drivers choice. And a small extortion from me. I think it'll work nicely.
How it works:
The car with the fastest average lap by testers gets 100 points in scoring for lap time. Every car slower scores the percentage they are slower than the fastest. A car with the average lap of 103%(3% longer) of the fastest time, scores 97% of the points.(97) This lap time score is multiplied by 0.9, to make it 90% of the scoring.
DC - Drivers Choice: A scale of 1-10. 1-2 you would never put on your car for any reason, 3-4 would be a chore, 5-6 can still make you sick, (only sometimes) and 7-8 can almost feel great, but 9's and 10's are great from finish to end.
Testers - Keep in mind, the only way this works better than 1-5 is if testers give out 1's, 2's, 3, 4's, 6's, 9's,(as honest and fitting, if the worst car is still decent and deserves a 5, give it a 5) etc, etc.
DC points are added to the lap score for a grand total score. If your average DC rating is 9, and you lap time is 99% as fast as the fastest, you score 98.1 points.
Work in progress, probably should have had everything together, but life has me busy, I'll add more before the night is through and have this finished by Friday night, however of course tuning can commence!
