S2 | Autobacs Super GT | (NEW START TIME ~ 2pm Pst | 10pm Gmt)Open

If there is a restart it will add a good 15min to the overall time.

Let's not forget we would have to run a 1 lap race to get the grid order correct.

Also are you sure you want first 5 laps? 5 laps of spa and 5 laps of rome are very different in length.

If you guys all want it then I'm all for it. But don't go complaining if we restart and the race starts at 12:30 (or relative time zone)...

Yea 5 laps is a lot and the time thing would be a big issue. What if we did only the first lap, unless there is a mass dc. I mean really if you think about it, a dc is just like an engine failure. It is completely unpredictable and there is nothing you can do about it

 

[SkengD]

3 laps then?

 

[Willfred_1]

Just say 5 minutes into qualifying is the cut off

 

[RodeRuner1967]

2 laps is long enough

 

[racefan88]

I like Wilfreds idea cut off in qualifying

 

[Willfred_1]

It makes sense gt6 goes automatically from quali to race

 

[ZachAK47]

If there was a 5min cutoff from start of q, could also then restart q with 5min shorter. To further reduce time gain.

Exactly

That or let q go as normal and the dc people can start at the back of the grid

GT6 servers are terrible and everyone lagged out in the race when it started on lap 3 so I'm not sure 5 min into qualifying is the way to go.

 

[trustjab]

Something like 3 or 4 people dropped one after the other. I think besides seth, one or two of them rejoined immediately.

Think dropping out as a part failure in a race

 

[racefan88]

Think dropping out as a part failure in a race

I agree, unless like we lose 50 percent or more of the field in one shot it kinda is what it is, and I think that is the right way to go. I got dropped last week, and its just the same to me as if I had a part failure when I was actually racing.

 

[ozwheels]

I agree but when people spend 2 weeks preparing for a race and they drop out in the first few laps because of crappy servers I don't think they will be as rational and think its part of racing.

 

[joetruckv8]

Are there any spots left in this? Would love to do a Super GT series.

I'll get you signed up, let me check the available car list on the main page and see what spots are available.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also guys I would like to try my room next, I've hosted tons of races since GT6 being released and had minimum drops out of my rooms in the past.

-Thoughts?

Looks like Xanavi Nismo GTR & Weider HSV Honda are still available?

Why do u care
your too quick your like Calum you could up to a few an win by a large margin. If Geak agrees with me then. It should happen as me and Geak have the worst connections in the series and most likely to dc

I mean when you spend two weeks preparing and get dropped at any point it stinks. But we do this for fun, there are no actual prizes given out, and you should have just as much fun preparing for the event as running the event. If you don't then I couldn't begin to understand why someone would put so much time into a video game, if they weren't having fun doing it.

I'll take the HSV Honda if that's okay.

 

[FakeGangstaDIE]

I would do a restart in the first two or three laps, but one restart then that's it. I was extremely pissed last race when I got dced after doing a lot of practicing for 2 weeks but I had such a problem I couldn't even join the room again.

I believe timeee and z-crazy are in the weirder and I know jross is in one xanavi.

Looking at the main page Z-crazy isn't listed with timeee in the Weider, SnowTyres is in the Raybrig with Skeng, and jross is in the Xanavi with racefan and as far as I know they all plan to race Saturday.

 

[ZachAK47]

Yeah far as I know I thought all slots were taken since Oz helped recruit all of his mates . Cheers man.

Joe you can host if you like. But considering the 2 main problem connections, Ghaek and Will are EU, I'm doubtful it will be an improvement. But for sure try it.

 

[ozwheels]

I will check with all of my friends to make sure they plan on running the whole season since there seems to be a lot of interest in this series.

If anything it might be worse

 

[jross427]

I will not be racing this weekend (wedding on sat, not mine, my sisters) but i have cleared out the schedule for the rest of the year. Ive already started testing at apricot hill

Ok so I'll hold back until you find out out from your friends. Tbh it would be better for them to sign up formally here on this op with their gtp accts over-all

 

[ozwheels]

Z-crazy told me he's withdrawing from the series so the Weider is open for Maynard if he wants it.

 

[mattarmstrong]

Is the Xanavi Nismo spot open? I would love an opportunity to race some Super Gt

Maynard took the last Xanavi Nismo spot, but watch the tread due to the fact he does show the seat then can go in your direction if Maynard ends up not being able to make it.
