[harvickfan]

[SpeedEnergy]

ok we'll finalize our list tomorrow if I can get everyone to agree lol

* We need dates & Time to be sorted out first .
I support Jan 8th as qualifying day, With the race on the 15th
(sometime between 11:00AM -5:00 PM Eastern ) - That Allows UK players to race and all U.S. from East to west coast to race @ a reasonable time.

* Then Regs to go along with cars. & i still think each team should drive the same 4 cars. Even if one car is faster than the rest, Its still fair, each team has 1 driver with one.

* Then drivers. / & The 4 that want to watch / Stream.
You cant really steward the race while its going on, Something could be missed somewhere and it would not be fair. Just stick to watching replays.
You could def be help though as a team spectator, say a driver spins off, you can stop them from coming back on the track in front of traffic. Or give them decent pit strategies / lap times & gaps

just a thought

ok, qualifying can start on the 8th, with the race the following weekend on the 16th @ 2:30pm EST. We will have 5 drivers from each league.

Here is my league's (STA) driver entry list:

PSN/Car
Speed_Energy/Mazda 787B RC
carl2448/Mazda787B RC
marimbakat/Bentley Speed 8
stevo2448/Bentley Speed 8
E6Romeo/Bentley Speed 8

Backup drivers if needed:
KR3W534*/Mazda787B
DjDynamite426*/ Toyota Minolta

My league can figure out strategy, gaps, and stuff like that during the race, or in practice sessions, that's why we will have practice, the room will be an online lobby so if we have trouble causing people, they will be kicked, and I think one person to monitor is good enough.


Qualifying will start on Jan. 8th, room times TBA
Race is unofficially set for Jan. 16th @ 2:30 pm EST
Official Car Regulations:
All cars limited to 700 hp

Speed Energy I think in the case of you guys using those 2 cars, we should use our series current regulations. Those regs being all cars 700hp, Bentley has 40kg of weight and 690 HP, and R8 has 690 HP.

Ok we can do that, I'll let the other guys who drive the Bentleys know, I just wanted my league to drive the cars we usually do. This is what this thread is for, compromising, which we can use these regs too. thanks. I changed it the post, check and see if it's good.

Sounds great man. If everyone agrees I'm happy as things stand now.

 

[SpeedEnergy]

gotta start making things official guys

 

[tissimo]

I personally would like to see a bit of variety in the cars. So I say 1 of each car per team. So '05 R8, 908, Bentley, 787B, and finally the GT-One.

As for race length around 2 hours would be good imo.

I'd say either one car per team (which leaves a strong possibility for unevenness) or each team uses the same cars.

 

[tissimo]

Re-reading what I typed I was unclear.. I mean each team uses 1 of each of the cars. So each team has all the same cars (1 R8, Bentely, 908, etc).

 

[bombe32]

I think it should be 4-man teams to allow a couple of spectators / commentators / team bosses who could give each other info on the other competitors.

good idea, I wouldn't mind watching if I'm not racing

 

[gogatrs]

good idea, I wouldn't mind watching if I'm not racing

I've had MANY guys feel the same way. A couple would even prefer watching over racing.

Which is why, if someone is able to, someone should stream it. If there is 4 spectators, there could be 1 to stream it + 3 team bosses, one from each team + 12 drivers.

Those three team bosses COULD stream as well...

 

[bombe32]

Those three team bosses COULD stream as well...

If possible, yes... but I can't remember how many said they could

 

[SpeedEnergy]

anybody else disagree? agree? i think we should have 5 drivers from each

 

[gogatrs]

I say four.
And those four drivers should be driving the same cars as the other four drivers.
Each team has bentley, Mazda, Audi, and Peugeot.

+ 1, i agree 110%
I say 4 as well

 

[SpeedEnergy]

alright, let me check with my league, idk if we all have the same cars

 

[tissimo]

Just cycle a few lvl 23 tickets if they dont have the cars.

 

[gogatrs]

alright, let me check with my league, idk if we all have the same cars

You just need to have four different cars.
Which cars does your team have.

 

[SpeedEnergy]

2 mazdas and 2 bentleys

 

[gogatrs]

2 mazdas and 2 bentleys

Key word is different.

I don't want to make it seem like I'm taking over, but I think we can agree that this would be the most fair way without make it a single car.

 

[SpeedEnergy]

Not to be mean, but I really don't get what you are saying, or anybody else, because everybody's idea sounds different. If you would explain in great detail what your idea is, or even make up a mock roster of drivers from your league, i'd be able to pull out what you're saying, thanks.....it's not the idea, it's just that every person has posted a different idea every time, we just need to be gettin somewhere if we wanna do this.

 

[Vettelfan]

Everyone's posted the same idea. 4 cars for each team, each different. So a Bentley, a 787B, an Audi and a Peugeot on each team. That way we all have the the same cars on each team and a variety. Also, then we can have spectators and few team crew chiefs etc. I don't get what's difficult to comprehend?

Oh and as I haven't been here before yet I should probably introduce myself. I'm "Jamman" from BermudaKID's league.
