Flyin' Miata Super Cup S2 | Season Complete - Thanks to all participants!

[CodeRedR51]

Note: Season is complete. If you would like to join us for the next one, see the thread for that HERE. 👍

Welcome everyone! After a fairly successful revival season, we're back for yet another. This will be our second season in GT Sport, and 8th season total on the Gran Turismo platform. We've come a long way, and continue to evolve, but the racing is always fantastic. Take a look around and if you enjoy what you see, please consider signing up.

This season we'll be following a similar format to the last one (x3 15 minute sprint races), with a few changes:

• Total of 5 rounds for points, with a 6th round TBD (based on Nov/Dec DLC and participation numbers)
• Switch to using a mix of real and fantasy circuits
• More realistic car specifications: weight and power increases to 220hp / 2,086 lbs (946 kg)
• Co-driver system where you can recruit a friend to race for you in case of an absence

[Alex Mart]

Yeah man Miata races are back

 

[RappyThePro]

Posting so GTP gives me notifications.

 

[Litchi]

Hey.

Just registered. I'll have to find a co-driver, just in case

 

[GT_Alex74]

Won't be available for at least Tokyo and Brands Hatch. Might run with or as a co-driver.

if you can take round 1 and 2, I can do the next 2 rounds?

 

[CodeRedR51]

Note: listed the power output incorrectly on the lobby settings graphic. Should be 220hp. Will update ASAP.

I'm happy you'll join FMSC, it will teach you how to race more than others.

 

[Alex Mart]

Added Michelin sticker on the car and change my main color to colorshift white/cyan. I'm ready to go!

 

[DesertPenguin]

I'm ready. Hopefully we can pull in some more drivers

 

[JakeKing39]

Curious as to how the new specs will affect the racing. Looking forward to it.

Should have a testing lobby open on Sunday so people can get a feel for it. I like it, but it takes a little more patience I think.

I'll see if i can attend, i'm pretty busy sunday evening. But I'm looking into it.

two of my friends in my team seemed pretty interested in registering for this series, I just don't know what they are waiting to register in the thread. I told them to register on the thread though, so I guess we just have to wait. Assume maximum two more people, they just don't have GTP accounts, must be why.

 

[CodeRedR51]

We are a week out from starting and have 7 cars registered. Spread the word if you know anyone that might be interested. I'd like to get at least ~12 before we start, which may end up postponing it a week or two.

 

[Alex Mart]

I’ll see with my active friend list, let’s get this event started, i don’t mind if it’s postpone. As long as we get enough people to make this event enjoyable, as long as it may take

 

[Alex Mart]

i've posted this thread on few GT communities I'm active on and asked few of my friend that are clean and fast racer. It doesn't seem to go well though :/

Not surprised. We're not an established racing league so that isn't helping. Might take a break for a bit.

I'll still see what can i do to help

The offer still stands to join IRS 👍

 

[GT_Alex74]

Yeah turns out I'll have stuff to take care off until the end of the year at least so won't be in this sadly. Keep me in line if there's another one after this or if it gets delayed though.

Don't think it'll help.

We may start end of January time frame.

Couldn't hurt. I'm here for ya buddy and don't wanna see you disappear for good.

Working on a WTCR series. Let's see it be a massive failure too.

Edit:

With Laguna coming, it's great to revisit this:



@SAMHAIN85

 

[Alex Mart]

I found someone ; kinda. He says that his sundays are hit/miss. So, if we can pair him with someone who also is unsure whether he can make all the events, it will be one more entry.

It's better than nothing

 

[Alex Mart]

Someone want to register but he doesn't have a GT Planet account, it would be useless to him since he doesn't speak english. But I can make sure he participates to the events once they are started. What should he write in GTP account field?

He seems very interested and motivated by the series though

 

[SAMHAIN85]

I miss the horn

Just duplicate the PSN name for now.

Very interested. Nice idea. But it's sad no one is interested in Miata
So much potential this series has.
IMO I think it will be a nice idea to make Miata an IRS championship if DesertPenguin is interested. This will be useful because people maybe just don't open the thread. With an "IRS" tag people will be more interested to have a look. Let's say, if every GTPlanet Forums member interested in Sim-Racing had a look at the thread we would already have 2 lobbies IMO.

I find it a bit crazy that the only reason someone would click on the thread is for the addition of three letters. Wouldn't be ran any differently, racing would be just as good. I don't get it.

"Let's say, if every GTPlanet Forums member interested in Sim-Racing had a look at the thread we would already have 2 lobbies"
This is why. We have to make people see the thread. So maybe with the IRS tag more people open the thread. Like: are you interested in an event organised by Formula 1 or an event organised by an unknown person? This is what I'm talking about. But it's just my opinion.
