I was on vacation and forgot about voting. Drum roll and the results are ???

 

[Schmiggz]

I think Zii is taking a rest

 

[Zii1993]

The results are trans am and group 5. I'll have the car choices up in a couple days and tracks up for vote around the same time.

 

[Zii1993]

It's that time guys. I've healed to a testing point at least. So let's get season 2 set up and ready. I'd like all intended drivers to send a pm with the class you want to run (either trams am or GR. 5) and 2 tracks you'd like to run it on. Car selections will be posted soon.....

 

[Zii1993]

We only have 4 confirmed drivers so far. @Schmiggz as our recruiter and promoter let's see how many more you can bring us. 👍

 

[IceWarden]

Pcars acquired as some of you know. Wheel won't be in until mid next week.

Saturday nights may be rough for me but if I can make it I'd like to try it out.

 

[Zii1993]

We'd love to have you joe. Please send a pm with the info above as to what class and tracks you'd like for next season.

 

[IceWarden]

Newb here. What is slowest class of cars (not Karts)? Tracks...surprise me...don't know any that weren't already in GT6

 

[Zii1993]

Out of the two classes for season 2 group 5 cars will be the slower cars this season. The car selections will be posted soon. I'm looking for an updated list of cars including dlc cars. But it's lookin like I'm gonna just have to make it myself.


As of now we have 5 drivers

Trans-am
3

Gr.5
2

@Schmiggz @joe_diben @Magrathea_42 @irmopars @VonSlamStone @Paulo Fonseca @Cole Brown @fortbo @Daniel Pinho @Lessen @Mike Lobban

If we can get most of these guys to join back up we'll have a pretty full grid most saturdays 👍

 

[Schmiggz]

Im not racing tomorrow Zii. I have the GTPlanet enduro series - 4 hours of Red Bull Ring on GT6 where I'm driving a 2 hour stint that finishes around 6pm. I'll be putting the wheel away for the day, after.

 

[Zii1993]

That's fine we aren't getting season 2 started till next week brotha. But I need your pm with your class and track selections.

 

[VonSlamStone]

guess who's back and ready to go in a gr5 car? I am also partial to spa and saikito

 

[Schmiggz]

See, i already fished VonSlamStone back from a GT6 lobby, eheheh

 

[VonSlamStone]

you got lucky I was there
for those I took off my friends list so I didn't bother them with my notifications could you please send me an add when possible

 

[VonSlamStone]

I won't be able to join tonight, got stuck at work till 11

 

[Zii1993]

We will be starting next week.

 

[Schmiggz]

It would be cool to know who choose what to make sure there's not too many of one car and not enough of the other.

yea I was thinking the same thing. I don't have a problem running either class and would easily switch to even out the fields

BMW 320 group 5

FRIED + PRINZ #88 -

 

[irmopars]

After doing some testing I was able to run at Laguna Seca:
Group 5 Car: 1'24.6xx
Trans-Am: 1'20.4xx

I would like to run the Group 5, Ford ZakSpeed. Livery #81 Turbo

Zii - FYI - I found the Trans-Am cars to be super easy to drive (car control wise) while the Group 5 alot harder (lots of spinning coming out of corners due to torque).
If anyone cares, i would suggest if you want an easier car to drive, pick the Trans-Am class and if you want a harder to control car pick Group 5.

 

[Schmiggz]

Jeez Zii, i've been all over the place for the last two hours or so to gather psn account names of potencial customers to our leagues and I noticed some interesting stuff.
PCars seems to be 200 billion times more popular in Europe than North America. 99,9% of leagues and tournaments looking for drivers are based mostly in the UK, then Germany, Holland and Scandinavian Countries. Find anything based in the USA or Canada is a lost battle.
One possibility could be the North American players be more on the PC platform than PS4 but that by itself doesn't explain the lack of offers or even gamers looking for them on GTPlanet, Facebook or PCARS official forum.
Speaking of Project Cars official forum, I noticed that your add (post) has 470 views!!! Fourhundredandfreakingseventy??? How many got here? Zero! Why? All Europeans that can't race in our schedule. Where's the Americans and Canadians? I have no clue, buddy.

I actually hoped that these classes would be closer than last season. With the lower amount of drivers we can still run two classes but it could be harder to pass the group 5 cars. It's the passing drivers responsibiltiy to make the pass cleanly. So even if they accelerate faster or turn better it's still on trans am drivers to be smart about it.

I ran into the same problem the other day when I was looking for some more racing. All Europe. I have also been spreading the word when ever I come across a clean racer. Clean racers are hard to find. Will keep trying. Keep plugging away schmiggz we all have faith in you.

 

[Schmiggz]

I'm running the project cars official forum members list tagging country and platform and sending some private messages to Canadians now and Americans later on.

 

[Schmiggz]

Done with Canada. Tomorrow I'll do USA.

Car choice...
