Our new flash site
The B-Spec NASCAR Championship returns for a new season!

Hello, GTPlanet users!

Following tremendous success in Season 1, we're back in big form in Season 2, for some more exciting racing! In Season 1, our resources were minimal. In Season 2, however, we will pull out all the stops to make this series as perfect as possible! Also, for those of you who have experienced the first season, expect two divisions again!

To clarify an issue that has been confusing some members, driver standings will be per division. Team standings will not be per division. That way, we can have cross-division teammates.

Rules

There have been several rule changes and clarifications that have budded from issues in Season 1.

• If your driver misses three or more races in a row, he is excluded from the series
• If a member is excluded from the series, the first reserve driver in line will take over
• If we have an absolute tie at the end of the season, the driver who won the final race is the overall champion
• All drivers must be over Level 25
• All members are allowed to pair up with another member for the Team Championship; this is not a requirement
• There will be only one race per division on race day
• 15 races in each division

[GraphiteGB]

Do I bring A.benedetti back for another season or will trying to claim a third championship tire him out... or could my other driver in training take over.
These management choices are hard... Bugger
A.koster is finishing his last Ring 4 hour race.... in just over 2 Hrs. Then I found out if hes slower.

 

[funkyDucks]

A.Kolowski will continue to bring Irish Pride, Same details as before.
Anyone care to teamup?

EDIT: Can I run a second driver in a lower division?

Bragging always does the trick.

Make a decision soon!

Thanks for joining us. However, since you are brand new, you can only race in Division 3 w/ one driver.

Akmuq and funkyducks could be team ireland.👍

Good idea. You should think about it.

Where am I at? Thought I was promoted to division 1?

You are (just added you). What driver? Buchanan I assume...

I joined you shem. I should have my driver up this afternoon. Plus, P.M. mcfizzle to see if he is okay with this arrangement.

 

[GraphiteGB]

Can't even get GT5 to go online due to the server problems the internet is having today. bugger

I guess I can't put my Level 0 driver online today.

 

[mcfizzle]

C. Wong and P. Adam will be partners. A formidable 1(Adam) 2(Wong) punch.

Got it. Here's how its going to work...

The driver points standings WILL BE per Division. Still, team members can be in separate divisions and the team standings will all go in the same pot. Shem got demoted to Division 2, but that doesn't matter. Just so you all know. 👍

[GraphiteGB]

GT5 new servers don't like MY isp.
Took A Proxy Divert to get GT5 back online....
Bad news for you guys is......Heres my new driver....for Divison 1

Hes faster than A.benedetti but not as hot...in the over taking...

 

[W3H5]

Shem got demoted to Division 2, but that doesn't matter. Just so you all know. 👍

My driver stands more of a chance in a lower division. Poor guy, he's just too cool.

 

[kenkwilinski]

Buchanan for sure. And I don't mind being teammates with funkyducks for the team championship, unless he had another driver in mind.

 

[funkyDucks]

Ok my second driver is M. Papa lvl 0
