[RACE] - ENDED GTPlanet Fantasy Draft Stock Car Racing Championship

[Jahgee]

Uh-uh. So, if I got this right, after releasing a driver, everybody can aim for him\her, and there is more than one person then the people around my position in the championship get the first dibs. Am I correct?

I'll give an example, and tell me if it answers your question.

Say I release Kyle Busch, and you and @nascarfan1400 claim him, you're combined 10th in points, while @nascarfan1400 's combined 12th in points. @nascarfan1400 would get him unless someone below him in points puts in a claim.

Ah, got it. Lower ranked drivers are the ones to have first dibs on a released driver. So in a way, you won't have much chances of getting a new driver if you're close to the top of the points standings. Hopefully I didn't misunderstood the words this time.

Neat-o. Say, when will you host that practice race you mentioned?

Waiting on @BKGlover & @raven214 to make a driver selection

Ah yes, you've actually mentioned that in the previous page. The three 90 min. sessions at the oval tracks are involved in this. It'll be interesting to see how it turns out.

 

[BKGlover]

Just so you know, the contigs overlap your number a little

@Jahgee1124 KK, fixed. Alan will also be test driver.

 

[raven214]

@Jahgee1124

My driver for the test will be Dale Earnhardt.

Damn. We're all pretty consistent with each other.

 

[Doodle]

I guess Jamie wasn't the best of choices for an oval, but it's interesting to see how he did.

In the OP, expand the section about the cars. The link is after the pics.

 

[Jahgee]

Alright, did the first race, and the results were certainly interesting

Spoiler: 17th-15th Place

Spoiler: 2nd-1st

Spoiler: 2nd

@BKGlover you were 4th or so for most of the race, but around lap 150, you somehow ended up in second as the only other car on the lead lap

Spoiler: Winner

@Gerarghini you lead every lap that my guy didn't lead, and lead around 225 of the 272 las

 

[DurWinning]

I'll take 5th. It's a solid start for my driver.

 

[Doodle]

4th place and 6 laps down.

 

[CinnamonOD]

Good enough for me

 

[NW48]

I'm happy, expected worse than what I got so I'll take it!

 

[swiftsmith]

15th fastest in first test,& 7th in first practice race. I'm happy with that.

 

[Aesthetics]

I'm surprisingly fine with this.

 

[BKGlover]

I'm pleased, no I'm bloody estatic, but I cannot surpass the urge to ask...

HOW?!

 

[raven214]

@Jahgee1124

Could I get a preview of my skins? I'm most interested in how the lines/placements work on the sides.

Race Results

Spoiler: DNF

• 17th @Harsk100 The very first lap, there was an accident involving you and @NW48, he lost his hood, while you lost your camshaft
• 16th @raven214 You were the dominant car of the race, but when @BKGlover broke, you must have been updating your status or something, because you plowed right into him , ironically this broke your piston
• 15th @BKGlover You had a major impact on this race with the timing of your Piston malfunction

Spoiler: Multiple Laps Down

• 14th @NW48 The early accident set you back too far to catch up, you were keeping pace even with your damaged car
• 13th @AJHG1000 I think your car overall had the slowest pace at the track, Nigel just doesn't have what it takes on the ovals, I think
• 12th @Doodle You were probably the closest to a moving chicane in the race, almost every pass for the lead, you were there setting a pick as a lapped down car

Spoiler: One Lap Down

Most of you were dealt the **** end of the stick by the caution, so don't put too much stock into your finish if it was here

• 11th @The Bman After @raven214's demise, this was your race to lose, unfortunately you managed to lose it
• 10th @DCybertron
• 9th @Niku Driver HC Ignore the finishing position, Tony Kanaan was the fastest non-NASCAR driver
• 8th @samurai8juice No idea how you ended up here, you were one of the slower ones throughout the race
• 7th @quietgirl Definitely the surprise of the race for me
• 6th @DurWinning
• 5th @swiftsmith

Spoiler: Lead Lap Finishers

• 4th @Jahgee1124
• 3rd @Earth The caution helped you
• 2nd @nascarfan1400 As much as the caution helped @Earth, it helped you twice as much. You had one of the better cars, but an unscheduled pit stop put you a lap down for the whole race until the @raven214 accident
• 1st @Gerarghini Took advantage of others misfortunes to pull off the win

 

[Niku Driver HC]

Well, you have been busy, haven't you @Jahgee1124?

Of course, I only have this to say about that first race:

​

Oh man, my real-life luck is translating to my virtual racing one, I'm doomed!

Jokes (and Michael Wilson) aside, I genuinely happy with my results. Tony is the fastest non-NASCAR driver, so his pace is definitely good. Two 3rd places in qualifying aren't bad to look at, either. 👍

Now, to get that racing part sorted out right... Are we going to see any screenshots of these races, may I ask?

And finally, sorted out the last bit of info in my team page; with the addition of @nascarfan1400 as my head painter after I held him at gunpoint after asking him for help with liveries.

 

[samurai8juice]

Glad to see Jann keeping up.

 

[swiftsmith]

11th,& 5th in the second session wow Niki seems to be getting used to the stock car.

 

[quietgirl]

14th,& 6th for qualifying so far,& 15th,& 7th. I was a little worried adding Johanna to my team but I'm not as worried as I was before.
