Saturday Stock Car Series! THIS EVENT HAS BEEN PERMANENTLY CANCELLED.

[StefanBellof]

The British lightweight Seasonal event is a good way to practice with this car. Collecting some good cr. and XP whilst getting to know the car. Just hope the handling isn't too different online.

 

[StefanBellof]

I definitely think this car has too much grip with sport hard tyres. I just ran a 7:54 at the ring, with traffic. Could easily get it into the high 7:40s with a clear track. Car is bone stock, no oil change, and running in the British lightweight SE.

Edit: make that a 7:50.380. I know i have a draft for a good portion of the lap but still think this is way too fast.

 

[VBR]

I would like to participate too.

Your are more than welcome, just make sure to read all the info in the first post, to check it each week for Race Event/Rule updates, & then apply in the manner described. I think I remember seeing you out on track in GT5 Prologue, do you have another PSN ID, namely: Piket?

👍

You're probably right, this is the only SSCS I've run so far where I couldn't find any skidpad numbers for the car (I even emailed TVR, no reply), & have just stuck with the tyres it came with as stock. Which is probably wrong regarding calan_svc's method for choosing the correct tyres in GT5, but that's what we've got this week & it's still a fun drive nonetheless.

 

[StefanBellof]

It is still good fun to drive. I usually do time attacks and compare it to real life lap times. I did not find any lap times for TVRs though. Probably nobody dares drive them in anger at the 'ring
First lap on Comfort Soft: 8:03.010 (with traffic)

I would like to partcicipate to fill up the drivers list.

PSN-name: GTP_w-g-e

EDIT: I bought this car today, because I wanted something fun to drive. Seems like I made a good choice.

As long as you've taken the time to read all the Rules & Regulations, you'll be more than welcome! If there's anything you don't understand, please make a post in this thread & ask me before the event starts (same goes for everyone), thanks.

Oh, I've done that. I'll send you a friend request as soon as possible.

 

[mr_VOLCANO]

If its room for me then I will join tonight

I definitely remember you from Prologue, you're most certainly welcome, just real the: SSCS Race Event/Rules & Regs before you attend. SSCS is run on a first come first served basis, the most we've ever had on track at any one time is 12, hence the ad in the title for new drivers.


👍

 

[mr_VOLCANO]

Cool 👍 I just read the rules and will send you a friend request after my pizza.

 

[Piket]

Nooo Tony is going to take over the world LOL

The world is all yours for the taking Pag, i can't make it tonight, cya next Saturday.


@VBR yeah i was racing under Piket for some time back then.

Great to have another super-fast driver on board, you'll be able to give Zkippe & GTP_GhostDriver a run for their money! Just remember to take it easy during the reverse grid races, you fast guys need to display more patience & skill in them than us mere mortals.

 

[ocelot-prodigy]

hey VBR, just wanted to let you know I won't make it today. forgot about prior obligations for this afternoon.

 

[DOUQA]

Hi guys. I'd like to join you tonight.

I've read and understood the rules.

I'll send you a friend request now VBR.:tup

EDIT: First race was awesome. Had great fun battling with Pag despite his car pogo'ing back and forth. Second race and I realised that the SSCS is not for me. Thanks anyway.

 

[mr_VOLCANO]

I had really bad luck with the connection today

But I must say it looks like my kind of event, VERY clean driving, i dont even think i got a contact with a single car!

Fast and fair driving guys 👍 See you next week.



EDIT: and sorry for joining late and braking the rules lol. Just a misunderstanding about the starting time, my bad. Keep up the good work

 

[Rotorist]

I wasn't able to get on track although I was in the lounge. A black screen with the GT5 logo came up and stood there until I quit from the game. I tried twice with the same result. I hope it went well for all.

 

[w-g-e]

I'm sorry I quitted so suddenly in race 3. Parents suddenly let me quit the game.
No, I'm not a grown-up still living with his parents. I'm 14 years old.

So that's why I can't make some races. Still great fun nonetheless.

 

[Cpt. Disaster]

Hi Martin, I've left a link for the replay you wanted in a PM 👍

No worries, I understand! Although I did get the jump on you in the pit stops by staying out an extra lap! You are very fast indeed for someone so young, & a super clean driver too, maybe you will win a GT Academy at some point in the future huh!

Nah, that was because my tyres were cold and I drove in the sand.

Thanks for your comment. I'm not the slowest, but certainly not the fastest. And definately not GT academy fast.

 

[decho]

Hi guys, do you race any other day except for saturday.. maybe during the week.. id like to join since i so tony is signing to sscs and i thout " wow thers going to be some bloody action here ".. but as i said saturday is not my day, so do you guys race during the week..?

Cheers guys..

 

[VBR]

Hi decho, sorry mate but we only ever race on Saturdays, "Wednesday Stock Car Series" just doesn't have the same ring to it!

I remember racing you in Prologue & know how good you are, so you're welcome to add me on the off chance that you do get a Saturday free oneday.


👍


PS: I'm working on the next event now, it will be posted up sometime later tonight.

 

[VBR]

This weeks theme is: SSCS: All Japan!

Featuring the Subaru Impreza Sedan WRX STI with Comfort Soft tyres on Tokyo R246 Reverse, Suzuka, Tsukuba & Fuji GT. The only skidpad number I could find was for the regular version of the car (0.90g), I can't see there being a huge amount of difference for the sedan so we'll use it, click here for more info, & see the GT5 Tyre Guide in my sig for the formula I use to choose tyres for SSCS (if you're interested).


Drivers Briefing

• Remember the Race Specifics, is deliberately putting all 4 wheels on kerbs & over white lines allowed at SSCS?

• Don't forget that everyone is now required to check the Race Event/Rules & Regs weekly, for any updates.

• There was way too much contact/damage last week, you all have a brake pedals, use them some more!

• Too many drivers were also not leaving enough space in qually last week, read the rules & do the math!

• Drivers will be getting SSCS Feedback PM's after each race event, if I think it's needed or will be helpful.

• Please practice beforehand if you can, see the new SSCS Practice info listed in Optional Information!

👍

[w-g-e]

Very kind of you, il add you anyway and i hope we can have some casual races during the week ("off the record") and maybe il join some free saturdays, i like your rules and above all i like damage, i think its the only way to get some order on the tracks..

Se you on the track mate..

Thanks for the compliment! I spend a lot of time on it, refining them weekly, not to mention the hours testing car/tyre/track combos & Googling for skidpad data, I hope you do come race & enjoy the event.

👍

I do run some casual shuffle races with the same lobby settings, done some tonight & it was the best so far, had a few great racers turn up & a couple of epic battles, all clean as a whistle!

 

[STEG-13]

I am running a Wednesday Night NSX-RM Championship and have had a few people say they can only race on Saturdays. One person I know for sure would be interested in this. He is not on GTP but I can vouch for his clean driving and very fast pace.
Is it ok to put him and others intouch with you?

Cheers, Steg

 

[VBR]

Yes please, that would be great, thanks!
