GTRA | World Rally Championship | Season 2 in January 2012

[Biffy]

Host, helping manage google docs, reviewing replays, etc.

I'll be writing up a Penalty System so Stewards are needed. But since you're already a Steward in WSGTC, you're automatically a Steward here 👍

Should be able to do this then, at least I'll give it a shot for a few weeks and see if I'm right for the job etc. Google docs are just like Excel spreadsheets right? I can handle them in my sleep

 

[Jubby]

Sign me up. I didn't see any takers for the Impreza '08.

Pardon the "noob-ish" query, but I've never done one of these before based online. I assume this is going to be like time trials. There has to be someone in the designated room? I'm sure we'll be told what it is, right?

 

[Masi_23]

Unfortunately, both '08 Imprezas are taken already.

Yes, rooms will be announced as we go through the duration of a rally. I'll post more detailed info about this in the coming days.

Exact specs for all cars will also be announced.

Oh, and Rally Finland will be pushed back 1 week. Still doing testing at the moment.

 

[LightningRedSTI]

Sorry I haven't got to testing yet, someone decided to put a dark colored sofa in tHe middle of a dark street and the front of my STI made friends with it.

Say, when do we get a driver roster update, boss?

 

[Masi_23]

Ouch! That happened to me with my Lancer... except it was another car lol.

 

[redreevos]

Signed up for the Peugeot. I haven't hardly run any rally on GT5. Should be interesting. Should be a good way to break (in) my new G27 when it arrives

Oh man you have no idea. Word of advice, make sure it's not mounted to something that isn't stable or shakes. Because the FF on gravel from the G27 is wicked.

 

[Wardez]

Or you could just turn down the FFB, which is what I did and it's fine.

Well thats lame

Actually set the ffb at 0 and 1 in the one rally event that I tried in the WRS. Not really sure which one was better. Most of it was done at zero, because back then I was on the DFGT.. and my wife was usually trying to sleep in the other room.

Yeah.. I actually think the DFGT might be slightly more wicked on the gravel.. Both a big shock though, if you have your ffb maxed out for normal road racing.

I was just about to say, the DFGT is pretty wicked itself in gravel, but I haven't been able to try anything else.

I'll probably be around 3-5 for the rally myself. (If I remember to turn it down)
I'd almost asked to switch to the 206 when I saw it added, an old time favorite of mine. Good choice.

 

[Masi_23]

Nice to see you here Reese!

By the way, i noticed you didn't write your last name full. Is it too confidential?

 

[paulmac2k9]

Masi ive signed up for promotions class since i hate all other WRC cars besides the ford or the 03 subaru, i want either the evo VI escort or focus rally car but since i only have the evo and i dont know the specs can i just wait till you have them before i finalise my choice.?

 

[OwensRacing]

Ouch! I'd be so freaking mad.

That kinda thing could go personal injury really quick. People are not smart. Hopefully this person doesn't breed. lord help us all if so.




FFB on 10 at all times. may try the power steering option on rally though. Well see. I doubt it though. Hahaha just seems a personal thing to stay maxed on FFB with no aids

Yeah some mouth breather thought a residential street was a great place to dump their old ratty sofa.

 

[NEPALII]

Masi, has anyone besides me signed up for the Group B?! I dont want to be alone. I love Group B and it would be a shame not seeing much interest for it.

 

[OwensRacing]

I'm open to switching classes to fill up said classes.

See what Masi wants to do. If he wants me to switch. I am ok with it. Depending on car availability. Hate to lose my Evo VIII to drive a car I despise.

 

[Biffy]

Until we get more sign-ups (that's if we don't have enough by the first rally), we could have people race in multiple classes, would be an even greater challenge to adapt on the same course for each class and set competitive times. Ofc we shall see what Masi says 👍

 

[Masi_23]

That's fine Paul 👍

Hmm... so far here's what we have:

WRC - 13
Promotions - 4
Group B - 1

Here's what i'm going to do... if the promotions class sign-ups don't reach 10 until the start of Rally Sweden (moved to October 10) then ill open up Group B for multiple class racing... but it'll be invitational only we'll see... spread the word guys! Invite your husbands, wifes, kids, grand kids, grand parents, dentists, shrinks, local bum, etc.!

 

[NEPALII]

Im sensing fear from some of you in here regarding Group B cars! Too fast for you guys eh?

 

[MemorableC]

im waiting for the rs200 to come up in my ucd then i will sign up for group b

You should try a custom track like Liege/Alaska. The premade dirt/snow tracks already in the game, like chamonix and toscana, just lacks grip and feels weird. Similar to GT4.

I'll handle some Group B, I have an RS200 0/0.

Dude the FF on a DFPGT during a rally sounds like a jackhammer lol. And works your arms as bad as one would too.

 

[Jubby]

Okay, second choice: If there is a spot for the Corolla WRC '98, I'll take it.

Sorry about that, now I know where my racing rig sofa went.

Signed up for the Peugeot. I haven't hardly run any rally on GT5. Should be interesting. Should be a good way to break (in) my new G27 when it arrives

I have one, but haven't really been rallying so it is going to be like my first time as well.

Oh baby, I have a fellow Filipino to compete with.
Anyway, HumanDestroyah, even before the event begin i'm sorry that you were placed as my teammate.

 

[LightningRedSTI]

Man that was one disgusting sofa lol, I wouldn't claim it.
