What Day Can You Race ( Races Times will be after 11pm GMT)


  • Total voters
    38
Have you decided on the race day yet?

No I will let you know at the end of this week.

I would love to race in this series. Any more detail?

Everything you need to know so far is in the OP, sign up with your number and colour and select the day you can race. At the end of the week I will select the day with the most votes.

Room for another???
Yes sammo would love you to join, racing will be after 11pm gmt though. just sign up with your number and car colour.
 
Cox will you need me to host the races like before.
not sure yet the test races will tell us more. As we are racing after 11pm, this should be easier on my connection as it is not at peak times for my ISP.
 
So no suspension tuning and no LSD tuning? I think I am out because of that. The LSD can mean so much for handling.

does not need one at 123 hp, and it already has an LSD stock. This is spec racing like in real life, they keep it cheap, and everyone has exactly the same setup.

In real life, on my Spec Miata, I can still adjust ride height, ARBs, toe, camber, caster and tire pressures.

In GT6, the stock LSD settings are garbage. It will produce terrible outside wheel spin, even at stock HP ratings. I am a tuning guy, so wish I had access to even just the LSD and I would be more interested in joining. It's your series so you make the rules. Not trying to challenge that.

I have limited tuning to make competition close, the test race proved this. I may change the specifications after the first season, but for now they will stay as it is. Its a shame you don't want to join, but thanks for the interest.

EDIT: I hate how we now can only have fully customizable or racing hard/soft setup. I miss GT5 where we had a more basic customizable suspension.

Good races to everyone that was able to show up.
For those who couldn't make it, we ran two 15 minute test races. One was on Silverstone National Circuit, the other on Laguna Seca. @racezilla ended up winning the first race, while @xflow1390 dominated the second race. Congrats to you two.
As for me, I was crap today. Clearly today wasn't my day, making the most elementary of mistakes. :grumpy:
But ah well, victorious or not, I had a blast. Can't wait to actually get this series on the road. 👍
 
@coxbox I think a success ballast would be a good idea for the series.
either add weight or reduce power to the top 3 or 5 in each race which carries to the next, if u get me!

I don't like to do this, too much time to manage. Thank you for the input though, for now everything should be set yp fine with reversed grids, if you win the race, you will start at the back for the second.
 
Sorry I couldn't make it, had to host for a test lobby for another series, Sounds like everything is good to go on the series, I suggest we make the series start in a week or two.
 
The racing series will start in two weeks, I will have the race day and time by the end of this week, then I will be hosting a practice race, to fill league specs, with a photoshoot. So keep an eye on this thread, also I will be uploading pictures from tonight soon.

Changing my number to 99 since someone else wanted 9 as well.
Diamond white car, matte light red wheels, yellow calipers. Very much looking forward to racing.

We kinda have space, once the race day is sleeted, this will free up space, not everybody can race on the same day. I have signed you up for now.
 
Cox will there be group A and B races if possible, choosing two days. So people can choose which group to register, like I am registering for Sat group?

If I could stir up the interest here could we run a NA series and then a run off.

Possibly, this may work, if we decided on a day to race we can work from there. If we have enough interest then two days a week may work. I would also like to get a full grid if posible.
