[RACE][NR2003] 2015 SuperTruck Series by Caterpillar, Race #1/18: NAPA Auto Parts 250

[swiftsmith]

How hard would an old 65' Studebaker looking truck be to make?

 

[Michelin]

There's me in University trying to find time between calculus and multiple derivations of physics to make cars for NR2003 and GTR2.

No problem @Gerarghini I just posted to remind you, I thought your real life caught you and you could've forgotten about the templates hahaha

 

[Smurfybug]

Then there's me who's in college and having to deal with some m8s who think I'm MLG

Anyways, Nissan template'll be up today. I will also get out a google doc form for the "stat" editor (hope you can maths). So if you wanna be in this race, better have dat template by tonight (sorry @Michelin and anyone else who wanted to use the Nissan/Honda templates yet)

Also @Harsk100, can you upload that VW template onto here or the PM so I can take a look at it?

What if I don't wanna edit my stats? You gonna Mlgnoscope me?

Why do the front, the back, and the bit behind the hood look grey-ish?

And, despite being able to make the Volkswagen joke, im sticking with Ford, even if Nissan is probably the best looking modern pick-up.

 

[Michelin]

Any news on the templates? I know I'm being a pain the in the rear end, but..

 

[Carbonox]

Hmm. I think I want to use a truck based on Ted Musgrave's 2001 paintjob, but since #1 is taken already, I think I'll go with... his teammate's number, #2! Yay, finally managed to make a decision.

Also, out of curiosity, is the front part of that #6 modeled after the Re-Max truck that Rick Carelli used to drive?

Here's the Nissan template done to the best of my abilities. If need be, I will adjust some small thing. Otherwise I'm pretty happy with it.

And now here's the form while I begin work on the Honda template that'll inevitably take a week to finish. This form will be for the Martinsville Test Race that I will run later today. Make sure you get your templates in by, extending this again lol, May 10th, or whenever reasonable before I run the Napa Auto Parts 250 (the test race at Sonoma may or may not go through depending on the circumstances.).

[Niku Driver HC]

Oh boy, maths, my biggest enemy. Better be careful with this thing now, lest I want to screw my chances up. As for the templates, keeping mine as-is, no need to change.

Edit: Form sent, I hope I didn't make a blunder during the process.

About the form...how are you gonna know who said what because I don't see a name entry.

 

[Niku Driver HC]

Now that you mention it... There is no name tag.

Er, @Gerarghini? We may have a tiny issue to solve over here...

 

[Gerarghini]

x.x

Gimme a minute, lemme get that checked out. I don't know if you'll need to resubmit the forms

I might have to, dunno if anyone would get the same point settings (that's rather unlikely), but it's better to be safe than sorry.

From my experience with Google forms, you'll need to have anyone who submitted resubmit. Also, the username column on the results spreadsheet will be the furthest right column

@Gerarghini Are secondary liveries mandatory like the 2015 Fantasy Series?

What is the short track stat for?

 

[Niku Driver HC]

What is the short track stat for?

If I'm not mistaken, that is what Martinsville is; a short oval track. Ergo, we are deciding how much bonus points we are giving our driver for short track racing. Mind you, because of the 25 points limit, you have to balance those extra points with the total points you have up to that moment.

Yeah Martinsville is a short oval. Seemed redundant but I guess I get it now.

 

[Niku Driver HC]

Well, it's always good be as close as to being 100% certain. I guess it's a case of whether to bank on specific track perfomance over general perfomance, or vice-versa. Or a mixture of both, with neither having a special preference. Remember, you only have 25 points to work with...

Also, @Gerarghini? Have you gotten that whole "name tag" thing sorted?

 

[Gerarghini]

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1oyRam_rx9EhYrGJunQoE-XmpGkpqprwO3l-LoE7m3KA/viewform

Here's the updated one, I know the name input is at the very end but whatever

I'll close it on the 5th. I know that's when it was supposed to start but I'll give everyone a bit more time to work on their templates if need be

Well, better late than never, amirite? Regardless, now the form is correct.

By the way, new form sent, this time it's the correct one.

 

[RACECAR]

Submitted. Again though, I'm completely useless when it comes to stats so I may have screwed up whatever chance I had.

 

[Jahgee]

Changed my settings, I can do that right?

 

[CSMDuty11]

Check your responses and make sure they add up to exactly 25. Failure to do so will result in Freddy FaZebear making the necessary adjustments randomly, in order to make it valid.

Freddy please

It wasn't my intention, but it kind of is.

 

[Michelin]

[GTRacer22]

@Gerarghini did @RACECAR send you the mask-less template for my scheme?

 

[Gerarghini]

@Gerarghini did @RACECAR send you the mask-less template for my scheme?

Negative. Tag him again for good measure.
