Hi everyone. The official results for NCS Round 1 have now been published.
http://www.projectcarsesports.com/ho...ound-1-results

Please see some notes from me about this event below.

Track limits:

A lot of drivers were penalised for cutting either the first or second chicane. Almost every team had at least one driver, sometimes several who did this. On PC, this led to us not having enough valid laps for a full top 20, which is why only 16 drivers scored points in the PC Division this time out.

Of all the drivers who went off track on their fastest lap, only 3 were considered to be marginal by SMS staff. All 3 of these drivers were contacted by SMS and they all provided sufficient evidence that their laps were clean. Therefore they are included in the results.

Ghosts not matching laps:

We believe that this was caused by the server updating a little more slowly than usual, because so many people were competing and improving their times all at once.

That said, all of the drivers included in our official results had ghosts which matched their lap-time correctly when checked by SMS staff. This was double & triple-checked on all platforms. Therefore these results will stand as published at the link above.

For Round 2:

Please take extra care with track limits, especially if you’re driving on PC. In general, Console drivers stuck to the track limits in Round 1 better than PC drivers did.

As requested by many of you, we intend to be strict with our enforcement of the track limits rules, so it is in your best interests to respect the white lines at every corner, on every track.

SMS need to be recording more than the top 30's ghosts. It's not exactly fair on the people on PC who finished lower than 30th but had no ghost that could be validated.

Saturday afternoon/early evening 30 April Is Beard Day from 4pm UK

Winner.png


Starting at approximately 4pm Saturday for a few hours I will host a lobby of various medium length sprint races.
If someone else can host after I have to duck out early evening it could carry on until later.

Ideas tested including
Lotus Type 40 Ford @ Brands Hatch GP
BMW 1-Series M Coupe Stanceworks Edition @ Brno
Lotus Type 25 Climax @ Monaco
Bentley Continental GT3 @ Imola
Formula Gulf @ Dubai GP Night Race (track will be 99% lit)
BMW M3 GT @ Snetterton 300
Lotus Type 40 Ford @ Brands Hatch GP
Ford Escort Mk1 RS1600 @ Bannochbrae
Ford Mustang 2+2 Fastback @ Mojave
Alpine A450 @ Watkins Glen short
Bentley Speed8 @ Barcelona GP
W Motors Lykan HyperSport @ Dubai
Radical RXC Turbo @ Ruapuna GP
McLaren 12C @ Zolder
McLaren P1™ @ Spa-Francorchamps
Ruf RGT-8 @ Imola
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX FQ 360 @ Rouen short
Renault Megane R.S. 275 Trophy-R @ Nordschleife 2 laps
Toyota 86 or Scion FRS @ Nürburgring GP
Caterham Seven Classic @ Silverstone International
SMS Superkart 250cc @ Oulton Park GP
Renault Clio Cup @ Bathurst
Lotus Type 98T Renault Turbo @ Le Mans 24h
All races 20-30 mins with 10 minutes qualifying.

Obviously even if I stayed in from 4-midnight there wouldn't be enough time for all of those but we can pick and choose from the list.

I'll now definitely be gone by early evening but hopefully someone else will be around to host. My mate is definitely staying over before we go to Silverstone on Sunday. Will involve beers, Project Cars, beers and finish off with The Force Awakens accompanied by some beer. I might be able to start the lobby a bit earlier than 4 (3pm?) but I imagine I'll have to stop around 7 or 8pm.
 
After chatting with some of the guys while racing tonight about DLC that never was for Pcars 1, it got me thinking about Classic Spa....This track would have been epic in the game.....Imagine tearing down those long straights in the Mclaren MP4-12c road car for example, the car on the brink of spinning at nearly 200 MPH...... I guess we'll have to wait til Pcars 2 comes along.

Id have loved to try it in the Lotus 49. The video of classic spa was what got me interested in Project Cars in the first place a few years ago. I've driven mods of it in GTR2 I think and to try it on Project Cars would have been great. Solstice would have been great too. In the end though we got a great selection of tracks.

Here's to more tracks coming.

Yes, me. We can't confirm much yet. SMS are rightly being much more careful about confirmed tracks and cars. I like what I have seen written and in clips and pictures so far. I dont have a good enough PC yet so can't use/drive the software so far.

John what time will you have to go? I was going to host a long race or two. If that's okay?
Click to expand...

Ok mate. I will start at 4PM or earlier and will probably have to go at 7pm. Plan anything you like. That list I posted was just some race ideas I've tested. I imagine I'll only get through a handful of them in my early session.

I saw you originally asked about the NXTGEN race, Up until late Thursday afternoon the race was cancelled, but NXTGEN insisted on doing it as they agreed to broadcast the race via Twitter etc. Therefore i had no option but to throw a team together quickly (and not really feeling like doing it as i had confirmed that i wouldn't be organizing the Team v Team event any more on the thread 2 weeks ago).

Also, with the "Beard" event running all afternoon/evening yesterday, i knew it was going to be difficult for most people to do it. And i couldn't do the race as my internet was, and still is, out of action.

Anyway for the record NXTGEN snuck the race this time:

NXTGEN 72 pts

CRAP 64 pts

Yep. Just confirming this. Hammy asked me if I could run it but I knew I didn't have time so he kindly tried to let Nxtgen know.

Thanks to everyone for joining for the races yesterday. Great fun. The Lotus 25 was great fun at Monaco and Barcelona. Dangers of open wheel racing video to come next week.

Glad we came to Silverstone
