In other news rookie driver Beau Albert may be looking at a full season drive next season. When talking to Team Raceonoz's team manager, Mustafur, he declined to comment on the matter. We will keep you updated when we find out more. ;)
And Series Founder NW48 would LOVE to have the whole of Team RaceOnOz back, and in a full-time drive, for Season 2! :)👍

Estimated Time Schedule
21:50 GMT+10 ~ Room Opens
22:00 GMT+10 ~ Cars Allowed on Track
00:00 GMT+10 ~ Room Closes

Co-Driver's
Co-Driver's would usually not be permitted in the lobby at the same time as their fellow main-driver, but since this is a test day, it will be permitted. Also, please remember that you must be in the exact same car as your fellow teammate with the exact same colour and the exact same number.

Driver Changes
If your Enduro Cup team is sorted, it is encouraged that you do at least 2 driver changes over the course of the session. If you are going to do a Driver Change, notify me about it via PM and I'll direct you from there.

Driver Changes work like they do in the GTP ES;

4.1.c Photos/Captures should be taken after Drivers have dismissed the Pit Stop Options menu, but before leaving the Pit Lane.
4.1.d Drivers should upload their Stint Photos ASAP after leaving the Lobby following handing over their Car to the next Driver.
4.1.e Competitors should use the GTPlanet file uploader.
4.1.f Competitors should attach their Stint Photos to a new post in their dedicated Team Thread. The body of the post should include any pertinent information relating to either the Stints they represent, or to the photos themselves. The Stint Photos must not be included in the body of the post.
4.1.g Competitors who suffer a network disconnection during their Stints, should denote this by making separate posts, with the second post starting with the first Stint Photo taken after re-joining the Lobby.

4.2 DRIVER CHANGES
4.2.a The following Articles apply to ALL types of Team (Local, Network, Mixed). 4.2.b DRIVER 1 enters the Pits.
4.2.c DRIVER 1 dismisses Pit Stop Options menu.
4.2.d DRIVER 1 takes digital photograph of entire screen (or screen capture).
4.2.e DRIVER 1 waits until his Car comes to a complete stop in the Pit Box, and then exits the Track, returning to the Lobby.
4.2.f DRIVER 1 leaves the Lobby.
4.2.g DRIVER 2 enters Lobby.
4.2.h DRIVER 2 selects his Car and joins the track.
4.2.i DRIVER 2 takes digital photograph of entire screen (or screen capture).
4.2.j DRIVER 2 leaves the pits.
4.2.k DRIVER 2 enters the pits, refer to Article 4.2.c onwards.

Stint photos will be needed for the test session to see if you are doing them right.


Safety Car
The Safety Car will not be in use during the test session.

Pit Lane Entry/Exit Lines
We are again at a track (Apricot Hill) that has these lines, it is important to acknowledge these lines. Failure to do so will result in a 'Dangerous Driving' warning. It's important that we practice this even though it is a test day.

That's all from me, the Driver-In-Focus Interview will be up soon and I hope to see everyone at Apricot Hill Raceway on Saturday at 21:50 GMT+10!

Excuse my absence from posting, Easter period has been hektik for me but finally starting to slow down.

Unfortunately I won't be able to make this weekend's enduro test, as its my little brother's birthday. But will definitely be back in action for around 5 at Circuit di Roma.

UNC Motorsports is also in discussions to sign their co-driver for the Endurance Cup, but no further comments were made.
 
My ps3 comes alive for short periods of time. I've put 3 fans next to it and my ac is on, and the ps3 is working at the moment, though its making wierd noises. I'm joining you nw, though not sure how long ill stay
 
Wait so it's basically an 'open track' day not a test race this weekend?
No test race. If we have enough people, I might throw one in, but due to the very large majority not having a co-driver yet, we have to ditch original plans, which I'm not happy about.

Are you still online?

right ok mate in that case then I probably won't stay for the entire time as I have a lot of work to do. Thought we were doing a full test 👍

Damn, I've just woken up aaaaand it's nearly 2PM... :banghead:
:odd:

been worrying over doom have you ;)
 
If you are participating in the GTPlanet Endurance Series, the driver change system should be familiar. Also, I'm looking for a co-driver. I only really want to do Bathurst though.

Unfortunately, I'll have to withdraw my wildcard entry, as my ps3 gave up on life last night. No way I'm buying another one, I had only replaced the laser in it five months or so ago, and now the whole thing is just stuffed. Hope to see you all on Project CARS on PS4 when that comes out though :)
 
Well, after a bit of a hiatus, the Driver-In-Focus interview is back and what better way to return than having out very own Turtle, @Ph1sher!


1. What drew you to the ATCC?

I've always had an interest in doing a touring car championship race and NW48 had put together a great upcoming series and I thought it was best to give it a shot and even though I've attended very few races I'm still very impressed from NW and his dedication which is what kept me in ATCC and I will be racing this week so that should be a blast!

2. Do you have any real-life racing experience? (I.e; karts, track-days)

Yes! In fact last year I raced in a Mitsubishi Eclipse 92 5 Speed Manual Hornet car (front wheel drive class) And it was a blast since it was my very first year last year and this upcoming year will be a huge challenge as I'm moving up to a Rear wheel drive Wissota Street Stock, so that should be a lot of fun! Really looking forward to racing with that.

3. What's your biggest Gran Turismo Racing Achievement?

As of Online Racing, I've won a lot of huge event races but winning some of the more huge Turtle Racing League event tops it all! First ever race I got myself a Turtle Racing League win was in GT5 with the Subaru Imprezas at Grand Valley. Man I tell ya I was jumping and happy that I won that race and couldn't wait to race with those guys the very next week! Basically was the start of myself to get faster back then! Back in the good ol days when I'd fall off the track a lot :lol:

4. Which ATCC race were you most looking forward to?

The Bathurst one (last huge enduro race) man I tell you that is going to be one crazy wicked race for everyone! How will the Mustangs do? Nissans? Corvettes? I mean man I don't even know how to explain it and all the action that will be going on for that race! Definitely will be attending that race for sure and marking it down it will be THE Greatest and biggest Race on ATCC yet! But we will see how it goes.

5. Which ATCC race were you least looking forward to?

Eh, I think it's this week or next week not sure but the race at London, multi class and some wide A Class Cars, tough to pass not a big fan of London but hey it will be a challenge for passing and limiting your mistakes, sounds like a good challenge to me either way.

6. How do you get prepared for a race, whether in the virtual world or real world?

Virtual is practice practice practice! Watch replays from faster guys! See their braking point, when do they get back on the gas? All the little things that can really help into making you a better racer overall.

Real world - Focus, stretch, Focus. In the real world it's really about Focus and precision. Having the ability of your mind to be focused in a race and have your mind make quick decisions is really huge.

7. What's your favourite Racing Discipline? (I.e; Open-Wheel, Touring, Endurance)

Man! I say pretty much everything but I'm a huge Endurance Freak and love open wheel as well. Been doing Turtle Racing League all my life basically full of endurance races and now returning into the GTPES so that is going to be a blast! Also had a WRS endurance race a few weeks back and was running with one of the greats on GTPlanet @PASM, and man he is dang alien fast!

8. Who's your favourite racing driver of all-time?

Donny Schatz - World of Outlaw Sprint Car racer who I've followed all of my life and has encouraged me into racing and helping me with advice! He's a fast race car driver and a really good guy overall.

9. What would be the biggest racing event in the world, in your opinion?

I know most would say something relating to F1 or Touring Car but I'd go with the Modified Nationals here in Minnesota where I live where over 100 Modifieds battle for $11,000 in a 75 lap race


10. Finally, what are your aspirations for the ATCC?

Just to finish the rest of the ATCC season strong and up front! Hoping to grab a win or 2 but with the tough competition who knows how this season will turn out afterall! Definitely looking forward to it.

Thanks @Ph1sher, I'm speaking on behalf of all of us in the ATCC when I say that we are definitely looking forward to seeing you make your ATCC return at tonight's Enduro Cup test!
 
I'm lost for words... This is utterly and truly pathetic.

When Enduro Cup time rolls around and no one knows what to do, don't blame me.
