The official title of this event is DTM vs JTC series. DTM (German touring cars) and JTC (Japanese Touring cars, including GT500, GT300 and JGTC cars) are allowed. No LM or RM cars are allowed.

This is a well established weekly event for friendly and clean drivers. The rules and formats already been used for a few months. If you are looking to overtake 4 or 5 cars on the first corner and won the race on the first lap, this is the wrong event for you.

However, if you like a bit of tactical racing with long intensive battle lap after lap without the worry of getting bump off the track every corner, you have come to the right place. There are some pictures and videos onhttp://www.gt5racecentral.com/seriesdtmvsjtc.htm

You don’t have to be a very quick diver (as long as you don’t fall off the track to often) to join and enjoy race in this event, we have some sample rules and handicap systems to close up the racings.

This is a casual event at the moment, points are not kept. There is no commitment to come every week, you are free to sign up each week.


Details of the event:

1) Race will be host at CLART_Lobby_3, lobby open at 7:15pm UK time (GMT), qualify start on 7:30pm (for 10min only) and race starts on 7:45pm normally finish at around 10:45pm. I will try to setup the lobby by 6pm for early warmup/setup connection testing etc, you can stay connected in the room, go for dinner, and come back by 7:15pm. We will try to reduce any delay possible and finish as early as we can.

2) Cars:

You can use any DTM or JTC on any of the race as you like, there is no restrictions on which and how many times you change your car.
A car list on the next post.

5) Handicap system:

- ‘KGC’ the last 4 finishes (or last 3 finish if there are only 11 cars or less racing on the next race) of each race will start next race on 1060kg


6) Rules:

I am sure we are all here for a good time racing, the only way I can make this DTM vs JTC event work is if everyone behaves like sporting gentlemen at all times. You are expected to compete in a fair and honest manner, to drive responsibly in a way that’s not likely to ruin the racing enjoyment of your fellow drivers/friends, no aggressive driving please. Show some patience, no bumping other cars off the track or pushing pass, these are long races, think F1 and not touring cars, you don’t have to overtake at this corner, better to wait until the next long straight for a safe overtake.
No bad general behaviour under all circumstances, no abusive or offensive language (including but not limited to swearing) in any of the chat.

Please strictly follow the 3 rules below:

A) In the event of an accidental corner cut, or accidental collision, please make it as right as you can on the track, apology after the race is good but not good enough. If you've overtaken someone because of "questionable tactics" please allow them to get ahead of you. If you are faster, you can always overtake again on the next straight. Only safe passing please.

B) When defending on the straight, the leading car has the right to choose his own line down a straight. He can change his racing line once while driving down a straight (move from the outside line to the inside, or vice versa).
As the leading car approaches the next corner, he can return to the racing line of their choice. However, he is not allowed move into the path of the car behind and causes an accident, if you're responsible for this accident, you must stop and allow the car behind to pass you first before continue the race.

C)If you can’t see the car close from behind or side by side (may be at your blind spot) always give extra room when you turn into or out of the next corner, better then have an accident.


7) Warning system:

To give some protection to all the drivers, there is a complaint and warning system for the most serious ‘accidents’.

If someone push you off the track without stopping and let you re-pass him or someone push pass, you can send me a complaint by PM within 24 hours, let me know the time count on the replay and I will investigate and send warning if appropriate. Anyone received 3 warnings will not be welcome to this event anymore, and I will report the case to Club Clart admin.

I think I'm in :). I hope I get my setup right because last sunday was a pain in the ass to drive the CLK DTM.

I feel you man, I forgot to turn my TCS on. I was shooting off tires the whole day!

Hey easy 9 you can sign me up for this Sundays race event. I'm going to stay in the BMW-GTR chassis for the remainder of this event. I was wondering if I could run my car at the stock 1120KG, since I'm getting killed of the line and down the straights by those JGTC's?

Atlon & Perth, I'm looking for your names on the list?
I'm ready to get into another scrap with you guys'

Race 1 start:

Club 532hp - M1 Doc Zam
KGC 1060KG - Joe Buck Perth

Remember EARLY START 7:15pm tomorrow!

See you all tomorrow:)
 
Thanks for a clean last race. It was a joke. I got hit by Doc at t5 which ran me wide and gave me a penalty, then by m1 twice going into the last corner and at t7. Then by Lary going into t8 pushing me wide giving me another penalty. It was a joke.
 
I think all the races were quite clean. Nice tactic at Tokyo with 0 pit for me and M1, had almost no tyres left at the end. Spa was hard for me, had to pit twice on last race and lost some time in the second corner, couldn't catch Joe this time ;)

Everybody was able to catch me with the amount of penalties I toke at spa (40 sec at least). I will be more prepared for next weeks race.

I love the format M1, and you guys are a blast to race with, see on the track soon'👍

I agree with you there, its a great league and ive had great battles. But yesterday, it seemed like everyone forgot to try and aviod incidents. Really annoying but looking forward to next races.
 
Hey guys, I want to apologies for yesterday. I did camplain about being tapped over at corners at Spa round 2. And I now know that these where incidents, and Im sorry for pointing the blame at M1, Doc and Lary, they where just silly little racing incidents and have moved on. Again sorry to those drivers that I blamed.

Well said Andy. I was just about to post a 3 pages long reply with pictures to your complains. You need to get your facts correct before pointing any fingers, especially online. If you have any complaints, you should PM me first as per OP.

I will send your apologies to Doc and Laryo which had done nothing wrong in the race.

Now I will just post a few pictures and send the reply to you on PM and we will all move on to better racing in the future.

Doc Laryo and myself did not ‘forgot to try and aviod incidents’, we do not have to remember it, we drive to avoid incidents, any contacts are bad accidents and it cost time and damage tyres. I don’t remember too many accidents/incidents between us, correct me if I am wrong everyone who race with us in the past few months.
 
M1 racing, is this legal? I see 2 wheels on the rumble strip. Now this is cutting the corner, lol'

That look's like very good precision corner cutting to me lol! Its a drivers job to make the track as short as possible, that does not cover missing whole corners though.

I think so too.

About corner cutting, we try to keep it sample - use as much track as the game will allow, and try to keep min 2 wheels on the track. With spec2 and penalties on, it has work well so far (joe received 40sec+ :)), lets hope there will be no problems in the future.
 
O yea that TCS is working great, but El Rogue can be a b....!
