GT Red Bull Junior Club

“If everything seems under control, you're not going fast enough.” Mario Andretti


***ON HOLD SINCE THE 1.03 UPDATE DUE TO ONLINE LOBBY NOT ALLOWING RED BULL JR. USE***

// Club Formula \\
GT Red Bull Junior is one of the funnest cars to drive in GT6. So why not create it's own club? The idea is simple, every few days, or when ever free, will create a room. Only Red Bull Juniors will be allowed during the session. A race will range about 15-20 minute range depending on the track or a certain distance for Endurance races subject to further discussion. Because this is the my first Club/Series I organize, things might not go as smoothly as i plan them, but as experience settles in, things will be as smooth as they should be.

What will make this Club unique compared to other, is not only the car allowed, but the stats that I will be creating and keeping as a record for all to see. I love statistics. Especially when it comes to sports. Football (Soccer), Hockey, NFL and so on. So I thought i would use the same concept to rank racers for this club. At first, this might seem something simple, but the more races are done, the more interesting things will get. There will be the traditional point system depending on position at end of race, but i will take into consideration other stats. Average Points, Average Position Finish, 1st/2nd/3rd Place Finishes, Top 5s, Top 10s and so on. There will also be a ELO type system used.

When it comes to race day, there 's is not set time/day. I will usually post the date and time in the thread ahead of time. One thing is for sure, they wont be taking place on Saturday's. 1st reason is because I'm part of the Turtle Racing League and 2nd, it's Saturday, if i'm not racing with the Turtles, im with friends and/or familia.

Drivers could come and go as you wish. Just because you start the 1st race, doesn't mean you have to stay for every race. The way the rating/ranking system I mentioned in the latter paragraph will calculate your average more than anything else. All that will be needed is for you to join the Driver's list by giving your GTPlanet Name, PSN Name and Car Color. Unfortunately you wont be able to change the body color, so it's normal that many will have the same colors.

Track List - W.I.P.
When it comes to track used, i want to use the ones with time lapses as much as possible. I will still have to do some testing to see what tracks/time lapses combo work best. There are certainly some track that would be great to drive on with the Red Bull Junior without having the Time Lapse. So in the coming days, the list will be published as testing/discussion takes place.

New Update: After much thought and testing. The track list that follows will be covering a distance of just over 50k per track for the race distance. Most tracks will result in races of about 20 minutes or so. There will most likely be other tracks to be added. Now I will have to test the tires and see which one will be best and maybe do it some way to add at least 1 pit stop. ;)

Apricot Hill Raceway - 13 Laps
Brands Hatch Indy Circuit - 26 Laps
Brands Hatch Grand Prix Circuit - 13 Laps
Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca - 14 Laps
Mount Panorama Motos Racing Circuit - 9 Laps

I'm definitely interested, Mo. I had seen another Junior league starting up but the timing wasn't going to work for me. I think a XJnr League would be awesome.
 
Alright lads, i think i ran into a problem. I got home from work and updated to 1.03. After the update though, I cant use the car on the online lobby for some reason. Need to set it up for Red Bull Junior Car only, but there's no option for it. So until i understand why and how to fix it, this club is on hold for now. Ill update this page once a solution is found. :(
