(ATCC) Australian Touring Car Championship | NW48 & Aaroh007 Are Your Driver's Champions!!!Finished

[NW48]

Group A was surprisingly pretty close, GTR might need to be slowed a little though, was easily getting times that I had to really push for in the two V8's.
Question: do they both run superchargers? Mustang and corvette.

No supercharger for the 'Vette but a supercharger for the Mustang.

I'm still waiting in a response from Litchi, so to keep the ball moving I'm opening talks with RACE. Then if that goes nowhere, I do have a Plan-C.

I'll have the parts list up for all cars tomorrow to make sure we are using the same upgrades to erase that possible kink in specs. 👍

 

[Aphelion]

Unfortunately, i am going to have to pull out of this, for the simple reason of not being available at a reliable time, pretty much ever. Very sorry NW48, but yeah.

You sure? I don't think we'll be starting soon so things may change for you? I can keep the spot reserved just in-case things change?

 

[Aphelion]

You sure? I don't think we'll be starting soon so things may change for you? I can keep the spit reserved just in-case things change?

Unfortunately, i fear it will be the opposite, as school will start soon and i pretty much won't be able to use the PS3 often at all. Sorry again.

Sorry for the late response, ok, I know what you mean, I've got school and sport coming up so time management is a must for me, but I somehow manage a way to find time. Thanks for the interest! 👍

Ah yup, I had to put a charger onto the mustang to reach pp and bhp, but didn't with the corvette.

 

[NW48]

I'll have a few more various announcements throughout the coming days, along with the parts list for each car.

But first, this Saturday at 11:00pm GMT+10, the first official test and BoP Day. Just like last Saturday, it will be held in the GTPlanet Community Club Lobby.

 

[Com Fox]

Is that going to be the official time for the series? If it is then I'll have to pull out to .

 

[NW48]

Is that going to be the official time for the series? If it is then I'll have to pull out to .

Not at all. That's just the time I'll be free that Saturday, that time Friday I won't be available as I'll be out.

 

[NW48]

Sorry for not getting the announcements out, just been a bit busy with other things. I will have a big announcment ready though for tomorrow. Thanks for the patience!

 

[Pubs16]

I've been busy also and have had gtwc business aswell as practising for gtpes so it's fine haha. I prob won't be able to help testing a lot though, definitely still keen on racing.

 

[NW48]

Yeah, pretty much the same reasons here. The session for late night Saturday at 11:30pm GMT+10 is still in but that may just be our last session for a bit until the GTPES Round 1 finishes up.

It's a shame we aren't in the same class .
Hm I might be missing that man sorry, I'm doing a morning practice session at Willow Springs which is bout 3am Sunday our time lol

Damn, that's right, GTPES Pre-Season Testing is on that weekend. Don't know if we'll be doing it though, but I'll still be doing testing that night regardless as I desperately need to get the specs sorted. 👍

All good, the GTPES is definitely bigger than this so I've got no problem with you having to miss the session!

 

[NW48]

Ok, first announcement of many over the next week.

Announcing the Support Series for the ATCC

The Official Support Series for the ATCC has been announced and will feature two of the most iconic muscle cars ever, something that shaped the original Australian Touring Car Championship.

The two cars are the Chevrolet Camaro ZZ8 Touring Car & the Dodge Challenger R/T Touring Car. Specs for these cars will be announced as the start of the championship draws closer.

It is expected that the Support Series will feature in at least 7 of the 13 rounds.

Another announcement regarding a special partnership is expected to be announced in the coming days once all details are finalised.​

 

[NW48]

Sorry for the lack if communication over the last few days, just been busy with the GTPES. Testing will commence after the Daytona 24hrs so we should have locked-in specs by Mid-Feburary. If we don't, you have permission to throw rocks at me.

 

[Com Fox]

I'm holding a rock as we speak.

I won't be there paying attention to the WWE Royal Rumble which is on the same day.

 

[GTPvw_slc]

I am interested in this series and would like to race in group b. I will be monitoring the progress of the car specs and choose my car once I can find time to test a little. Thanks!!

👍 I can't say the time as if yet, but it should (90% certain) be on weekends. Once I find enough time, I'm going to add a Time/Day Poll to this thread so we can vote for our preference.

If you haven't noticed already, we have had to cut the Toyota 86GT from the car roster due to it being too far off the pace.

Australian Touring Car Championship

(OP IN PROGRESS)

This series is a throwback to the heyday of Australian Touring Cars with a vision for the future and a modern twist using a slightly modified version of the new "Gen2 Supercars" regulations coming into the V8 Supercars in 2017.

In this championship, my fellow series organiser's and I are striving to achieve ultimate professionalism while ensuring that everyone who par takes in this series will have a thoroughly enjoyable time with high levels of competition. It is for that reason we will allow up to 26 people to join our series and race competitively throughout.

There will be 2 categories. The two categories are Group A & Group B. I'm planning to have the maximum BHP for Group A to be 650BHP and weight 1,270kg. For Group B, the maximum BHP is to be 570BHP. These are just maximum specs so we know where to start for the BoP testing. The planned cars for Group A are;
​

General Rules & Expectations
As with all championships, there are rules and expectations regarding all things from track limits to race craft. The following is a summary of general rules & expectations that you can expect when competing in this championship;


Track Limits
Track Limits in this championship will be dictated by the white line that surrounds the track. In the case of kerbs & ripplestrips, track limits will be extended to the inside edge of the kerb, or in the case of ripplestrips, the outside edge of the ripplestrip. You will be infringing on this rule if you put more than 2 wheels over that white line or kerb and gain an advantage.

Track limits will be observed in all races, failure to observe this rule will result in a time penalty added to your finishing time unless you self-adress the infringement by slowing to erase any advantage gained.


Race Craft (Contact of Cars)
Rubbing is racing, so contact of cars in this championship will be rather relaxed as long as it does not hinder a drivers progress, it will not result in a penalty. Any contact that hinders progress or is deliberate, will result in a time penalty that will be added to your finishing time.



Passing (Divebombing, etc)
Divebombing, is strictly illegal and will not be tolerated. If it is reported or seen that you have employed the said technique, you will be facing a time penalty.

The 3 quarter car rule will be in place to ensure this does not happen.


Appeals/Complaints
Any complaints or appeals over a decision made must be directed to the officials of the round.the series officials will be announced closer to the start of the championship start.


Safety Car
In our pursuit for professionalism, a safety car will be in use for some rounds. The safety car will be the BMW M4 Performance Edition with the equipped light bar. We do need a driver for that role for it to go ahead.


Season Calendar
The championship will consist of 15 rounds with varying formats. Sprints will consist of up to 4 races with laps depending on track size. Enduro's will be worth double points and will consist of 1 race up to 2hrs depending on track. The calendar will be announced shortly.
