VS Racing Series - Series will resume once GT6 arrives!

Get ready for some intense races, featuring rivals of all sorts, battleing it out on a wide variety of tracks!


General info about the Racing Series: This Racing Series will feature championships ranging from 3-7 races, usually lasting between 1-4 hours. Races will be held on different dates, usually on friday/saturday evenings in GMT time. ALL times posted by me are in the 24 hour format, and using GMT. During Summer time, everyone needs to add 1 additional hour to the posted GMT time.

Should you wish to participate in the event, you have to sign up in this thread, or by PM to me. Furthermore you have to attend at least one practice session, in order to prove yourself capable of driving clean and fair. There will of course be plenty of practice sessions to join before the event. You are of course expected to participate in all the races of the specific championship that you've signed on to.

If you sign up, I expect you to be commited. Should something prevent you from joining, you need to PM me as soon as possible. Furthermore, I expect participants to stay up to date on rules, and to not quit the race under any circumstances. If you can't follow these simple rules, then don't bother signing up. I've had it with people who sign up, only to forget about it the next day.

Participants will aquire points based on the position they finish in, in the different races.

1st receives 15 points.
2nd receives 13 points.
3rd receives 11 points.
4th receives 9 points.
5th receives 7 points.
6th and 7th receives 5 points.
8th, 9th and 10th receives 3 points.
0 points for anyone finishing above 10th place.

In all championships featuring Race cars, a weight penalty system is enforced. When you win a race, you have to add a ballast of 50kg to your car for the next race. Win the 2nd race, and you have to add an additional 50kg. Lose a race, and all the ballast you have added will be removed.

On the plus side, participants who win a race after having recieved a ballast penalty, will gain an additional point outside their position score, for every 50kg they have added as ballast.

Dates and times for upcomming practice sessions:




More sessions will be hosted at times yet to be decided. Feel free to give suggestions, either in the thread, or by PM. These practice sessions consists of some free running, as well as short 3-10 lap races. You can attend the practice sessions regardless of whether you've signed up to the race. However, should you choose to do so then please notfiy me in the thread, so I know you aren't just some random person joining the lobby. If you then find out that you'd like to join the actual event, just let me know so I can add you to the list of participants.


Rules and Racing Etiquette: In my events, you're off track as soon as you have less than two wheels on the track(Tarmac), unless oterwise stated in the individual race info. Should you go slightly off track on rare occasions, it's nothing to worry about. However, if you go off track by more than a car width, I expect you to slow down, and re-enter. Of course you should always take care not to re-enter the track right in front of other drivers.

You will of course do your best to drive clean and fair. You are not allowed to brake test or cut people off. Should you be responsible for damaging another driver, you will escort him/her to the pits. If you obtain damage to more than one wheel, you are required to pit. If you see or experience someone driving dirty, you notify me by PM, and I'll take action. Please inform me of the specific race, lap and turn when informing me of a bad driver. It can also be a good idea to save the replay, just in case I don't have it.

When driving without ABS, you are allowed to alter your Brake Balance. When driving with ABS, it has to be changed to 4:4 in order to counter the advantages given by ABS.

The thread is looking very good Jawehawk, there's nothing that really needs fixing in my opinion. I would also like to sign up with this in a Ferrari F430.

Hey Andy, i thought you might had thrown out your PS3 after last event . Sign me up please, i'm looking forward to this. I do have 1 comment about your OP, i believe there isn't info about wether damage is enabled or not. I assume damage will be set to heavy for al races like all previous events hosted by you.

Meh? I can tell if it's going to be heavy damage or not. If the race is taking place on a track where there is no pitlane then the damage is turned off. If the track does have a pitlane then damage is turned all the way up.

Nice countdown, now people should not be able to forget when the races will take place.

Hi Andy I would like to join please, don't know which car will test and let you know:tup:

Just removed the practice session for June 16th, as it had the misfortune of being hosted the same time as Le Mans in France.
