Alien's GT Class Endurance Series


Alien's Mission Statement - My mission is to simply have a series/league where everyone feels welcome and nobody feels out of place due to their skill level, and to create International friendships amongst Gran Turismo fanatics.​

What Is It? - Alien's GT Class Endurance Series is a Sunday racing event that will be a total duration of approximately 2 hours and 25 minutes. This league is for racers of all skill levels who love endurance racing in Gran Tursimo and are looking for a competitive experience along the way. The lobby will open at 3:45PM Eastern Time.​

How Will It Work? - Every Sunday Afternoon except major holiday weekends(Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years) I (alienracing88) will host a friends only lobby. Once everyone is in the first turn to check visibility of each other we will begin a 10-15 minute qualifier based on the track/circuit. The qualifying session will be followed by a 1 hour endurance race with a 10 minute concession afterward for oil changes, food and drink needs etc. The second race will be 1 hour but will be REVERSED GRID BASED ON PREVIOUS RACE RESULTS. How you race and place in the races will determine your nightly and seasonal points. A season will consist of 4 weeks (Sundays), at that point I will tally up the points to determine our seasonal champion.
Points System -
1st - 32 Points
2nd - 31 Points
3rd - 30 Points
4th - 29 Points
5th - 28 Points
6th - 27 Points
7th - 26 Points
8th - 25 Points
9th - 24 Points
10th - 23 Points
11th - 22 Points
12th - 21 Points
13th - 20 Points
14th - 19 Points
15th - 18 Points
16th - 17 Points
Note: 2 Point Bonus For Fastest Qualifying Lap
If you decide to just "park" or "rage quit" you will automatically receive a DNF. I WILL NOT TOLERATE people just parking on the track because they do not want to finish the race. If you happen to have an emergency please speak up and let the host (alienunleashed25) know immediately and you will receive last place points for that race.

Rules - The rules here are pretty simple and straight forward. First of all, I expect everyone to race clean and the fastest to your potential. If I see or hear of anyone "sandbagging" during racing and I see a pattern of it, I will ban you from racing with this league. Please be courteous to all other racers male or female, on and off the track. If you have "beef" with another racer/driver either suck it up and get along or find somewhere else to race. You don't have to talk to each other but you are expected to show respect to each other when in the lobby, on the track, and on the league thread. I want a clean, friendly racing environment not a "free for all" over the microphones, if you hit another driver on track to where it affects their line/stability, please wait for them to regain their positions and please apologize to them. We are grown men, we are not children so please do not act like it. I do not want bickering back and forth over the microphones, I do not care who did what or who had right of way, if you think it was something intentional or on purpose please stay quiet, send me a private pm with you and the drivers involved and I will take care of the issue as I see fit. I save all replays so no need to send them to me. Attention, if you are for some reason going to be lapped, the driver behind you who is lapping you has the right away please move aside to let them pass. Do not affect their line or try to compete with them, there is no sense is competing against someone who has lapped you when you are still a lap down or more.

Penalties- There shall be no actual penalty points yet as I trust the people I have selected to race. However the in-game penalty system will be in play and set to Strong to simulate actual race penalties. Please do not attempt any of the following, Dive-bombing, Cutting the Track, and/or Overly Late Breaking to Gain Substantial Positions. If I see I have no choice but to enforce penalties I will and they will not be light.

Corner Rights - Are as follows, you must have a half car length or more ahead of the car next to you before entering a corner to have "corner rights". The driver on the inside line of the corner has the right of way , do not be aggressive or affect their line in anyway, however the inside driver should not swing wide coming out of a turn unless they have substantial room to keep from hitting or causing an accident with the driver on the outside racing line. If you do not have overlap going into a turn whether inside or outside line please back-off respectfully if both cars cannot make the turn double
wide. Racing on the Nurburgring will take place and due to the very narrow sections of the track, the driver who has overlap into Curves, Winding Straights, and Narrow Downhill Bends has the right of way, please wait til it is safe to pass. Please set up controllers and racing wheels for side view compatibilities, I DID NOT SEE YOU IS NOT ACCEPTABLE AT ALL.

Event Setup - 10-15 Minute Qualifier - From Pit Lane
2 Hour Endurance Race - 1 Hour First Race
10 Minute Concession
1 Hour Second Race Reversed Grid Based on Previous Race Results

Looks good. You should put me on the Part time list because I am not always free on Sat night as was evident this past sat night. I won't be making this upcoming race either since it's my anniversary weekend.
 
This looks great! Nicely done @alienracing ! 👍

Unfortunately, Saturday nights are extremely difficult for me to get online, so I don't think I'll be able to make this one, unless in the event of some sort of miracle. In which case, I will let you know ahead of time. Best of luck to you going forward!
 
Interested in signing up.
What does the caution lap mean?
And what time does the room open?

Caution Lap is a bit different from real life, it basically means that 45 minutes into the first race whoever is in the lead when he/she crosses the finish/start line will slow down to 60mph to let the pack catch up and everybody will be regrouped. They will run in a pack for a full lap with no passing and when that lap is finished and they cross the start line again the regular racing resumes. The room open at 7:45pm Eastern Time and qualifying begins at 8 pm. And sign up instructions are very bottom and the first post on the thread. Thank you for interest.

@gears_1000 are you still interested bud?
 
Just a quick reminder this past Saturday was postponed due to not enough members. Therefore the Megane at Monza still stands for this weekend. Quick show of who all is planning on attending so I know if I neex to round up some more people.

@Nail-27 ,@euclid58 , @hognhominy , @emgoodwin , @STOCKY8A1 , @Piler , @miata13B , @mopar440 , @Rockhound18 , @spiraldave

I already know @Jay_B_II cant make it due to anniversary plans.

@joe_diben if your available you can jump in if youd like I know youve been pretty busy here lately:cheers:
 
You should be able to we had another update which is 1.11 its only 30 megabytes im sure that probaly fixed a few hidden issues. If not there are a few threads in the general questions where you may find an answer.
 
@alienracing my work can't seem to get their panties together. I gotta go in again. This absolutely sucks. I am going to ask putting my on part time driver list at this point because of this.
