Rules
1) This racing league is by invitation only.
2) You may purchase or win as a prize any car used or new made after 1940 and before 1980 for an entry. No race cars or rally cars may be entered. You will post your entries in this thread, but you do not need to post its cost. It will then be placed in its racing class by BH-21. You may enter one car in each of the five classes. General classes are:
Code:
Class A ( 5 HP - 19 HP)
Class B (20 HP - 99 HP)
Class C (100 HP - 199 HP)
Class D (200 HP - 399 HP)
Class E (400 HP - Over)
3) All purchases must be posted publicly in this thread including parts and oil changes made later. Washing your car may be done freely. All parts are available once you can afford them except computerized controllers and racing chips and carbon driveshafts. Nitrous purchase and use in the Grand-Prix-Classic is banned.
4) You start with a base budget of 2,000 CR per car entered to be used for that car only.
5) Events will be handled in a bi-weekly manner cycling when time runs out or all times are in. Each track will be handled in turn, allowing prize money and purchasing of parts to be applied before the next race or race period. If a driver does not have a single time when all other times in that driver will be recieve a DNF for each entry not submitted.
6) All driving aids must be set to 0 on all cars entered. TSM and Anti-Lock Brakes and associated systems (ASM) didn't exsist on production cars till the early to mid 1970's. Then they were only available to certain makes and models of cars.
7) To drive a course will you use the Family Cup with the AI Difficulty set to the following difficulty level based on the weeks progression:
Code:
Weeks/Season AI Difficulty
--1 Week 0

12-14 Week 3
8) Times used will be a combined lap time that shows when you return to the main screen for that track, after the race, with a combined time for all racers that finished.
9) That combined time is what a driver will post and it will be compared to the other drivers combined times for each track. Tracks will be classified by their length using the following scale:
Code:
Track Class Length
Short Under 1 mile
Medium 1 to 2 miles
Long 2 to 4 miles
Grand Over 4 miles
Code:
Short Medium Long Grand
1st 6 8 10 15
2nd 5 6 6 10
3rd 4 5 5 6

12) Random rolls will be made by BH-21 with real six sided dice or computer simulated ones for each entrant at the appropriate times.
13) If a driver isn't able to post all of their times for a given two week period he recieves a DNF for each track that they missed for that period.
14) All time submissions will be by Private Message to BH-21.
15) A family cup event should be driven in the spirit of a race keeping two wheels on the track at all times and minimizing collisions with the bot cars. Especially to preserve your car for the season.
16) Once cars have been chosen each driver may recieve a free close or super-close transmission if they chose to. This item will be added to their car record. Cars that do not start with sports medium tires but economy instead must stay on economy until other tires can be purchased.
