GTP NASCAR SPRINT CUP S3 Champs: RFLX_Niop, Joe Gibbs Racing, Toyota

You could call it the 500 still. That's what they did for the real Motegi race in 1998. "The Coca-Cola 500 was an exhibition NASCAR stock car race of 311.3 miles ( 501.0 km)..." I know they ran 201 laps rather than the 200 we're limited to, but it's close enough.

EDIT: Never mind. They only used KM for exhibition races held outside the US (the two at Suzuka East, one at Motegi, and one at Calder Park in Australia).

NASCAR used distance in KM for a race at Phoenix earlier this season, calling it the Subway Fresh Fit 500. Plus, the race this past weekend was 350km at Sonoma, wasn't it?

I don't think there's anything wrong with calling it the Southern 300. It's going to be a 300 mile race at the closest thing we have to replicate Darlington. Besides, that gives us four major races at distances of 300, 400, 500, and 600 miles. I like the variation of the distances for each race.

Oh, by the way...

Motegi DLC release date is tomorrow.

 

[Carbonox]

Start the next season quickly before PD prevents us non-buyers from using that track.

Forgot about those 💡


Adding more cars increases the chance of me lagging. Everyone will look fine on my screen, but I'll be lagging on theirs (going from past experience). You'll also probably never hear me in the race either, since my mic is rarely heard when a room has 13+ people despite me talking as normal. I can very briefly make myself heard sometimes if I mute and unmute it and then immediately say whatever it was I wanted to.

Or stop being so tight and buy it, it's hardly expensive

Suppose you could call it the 500 considering NASCAR do it.

Don't see anything for the US yet though on Motegi for a DLC?

If you don't get it tomorrow I'd think it would be next week. Didn't EU get the Spa DLC before America did?

 

[nate11x]

I don't remember that far back. lol

Pretty sure I remember setting my lounge to Spa so Cowboys could try it out before US release. Not certain though.

No that was someone else, why do you guys always confuse me with other people?

This was ages ago, I can hardly remember to be honest. I only confused you with our safety car driver because you're both called Brett

Come on, 'twas a good joke considering my history with Spa.

Nice, will PM you potential Trucks schedule later 👍

 

[cgr-10]

Awesome man 👍 Liking the fact you've given every race a proper name, taking cues from IndyCar?

 

[DrifterJoe]

Pretty sure I remember setting my lounge to Spa so Cowboys could try it out before US release. Not certain though.

That was actually me. I couldn't get it for a couple of weeks and wanted to practice for IndyCar (we'd planned a race there, but Spa ended up only being pre-season due to it no longer being accessible to non-buyers after a month or so).

Schedule is looking good 👍

 

[Carbonox]

It does look great, though I'm still trying to decide between SC and NW. At least it looks positive that there are no unnecessarily long races in the Chase, like this season 👍

 

[Furinkazen]

PM Sent Drop.

 

[Müle]

All it's lacking is Laguna Seca and Nurburgring

But they can be put into Nationwide, right man?

 

[Müle]

They might already be in there

But I would definitely be in favour of replacing Suzuka East with one of them, and possibly High Speed Ring with the other.
