If you know you can't make it just post saying so and then I can calculate the results and set GrumpEone the engravers to work on the trophies.


The following drivers have yet to pick a car and complete any event:

Bobk

You will be dropped entirely from the league when the 1st Circuit ends tommorrow morning if you haven't picked a car by then.

I've just bought a wing for €1,200.
 
I appologize Driftking18594, I completely missed putting your entry in the race record from which I put the names not finished. I will rectify that quickly. That hit right during my family buisness.

All fixed, hopefully thats only snafu I've made since July 5th.

Round 2 Recap:

Code:
Driftking	bet 50cr on Driftking	@ 1:5 and wins 60cr.
Fabmaru		bet 10cr on BH-21	@ 1:5 and wins 12cr.

Flynn		bet 30cr on Fabmaru	@ 1:5 and wins 36cr.
		    20cr on korza	@ 1:5 and wins 24cr.
		    10cr on Anderson	@ 2:1 and wins 30cr.
		    20cr on Flynn	@ 2:1 and lost.
		    20cr on Ignignoc	@ 5:1 and lost.

So Flynn spent 100cr and won 90cr so is down 10cr,
Driftking spent 50cr and won 60cr so is up 10cr,
Fabmaru spent 10 cr and won 12cr so is up 2cr,
Ninja betting shop is down 2cr. Guess I got the odds just about spot on!


Round 3 Odds:

Code:
Driftking	Nissan Silvia K's (S13) '91	1:5
Fabmaru		Nissan Silvia K's (S13) '91	1:4

BH-21		Nissan Silvia K's (S13) '91	1:3*
korza		Nissan Silvia K's (S13) '91	1:3*
SVX		Nissan Silvia K's (S13) '91	1:3*
Hot_shoe	Mazda RX-7 GT Limited	'85	1:3*

GrumpEone	Mazda RX-7 GT Limited	'85	1:2

Jet Badger	Mazda RX-7 GT Limited	'85	2:1

AndersonG22	Toyota MR2 1600 G-Ltd	'86	4:1
Car-less	Mitsubishi FTO GP Ver.R '97	5:1
Flynn77		Honda CR-X SiR		'90	5:1
Ignignoc	Mazda MX-5 Miata	'89	10:1

* 1:3 will be rounded to 7:20 should any of these people place on the podium.

Like last week, this is odds on gaining any podium position in any race this week! With 15 podium places available and just 12 drivers it's even more likely to see everybody take some points!

Also like last week I'll only accept up to 10 bets per person, but this time they must be multiples of 20cr - with a total limit of 500cr.

If I recieve 20cr in bets for every driver and everyone gets a podium place, I'll have taken 240cr but have to pay out 807cr! That's 3.36x what I took in bets compared to last weeks 2.25x.
 
Im going to change my selection to the mid engine rear wheel drive Toyota MR2 1600 G-Limited SC'86 in white,it costs $7,349 which leaves me with $51 left. It has 128hp, weighs in at 1,070kg, and came with 47,217.8 miles on the odometer.

This is my final answer.
- unedited post #31

Yo BH, Im running the "Limited SC'86" MR2. The "** Current Sunday Cup News **" says Im running the Toyota MR2 1600 G '86.
 
I bet the following:
Code:
GrumpEone      200 CR
Driftking      100 CR
AndersonG22    100 CR
Hot_Shoe        40 CR
Car-Less        60 CR

Good Catch AndersonG22, I had it right in your car record but some how got it wrong on the season racing roster. Fixed it!

I bet 10Cr in GrumpEone and 20Cr in Driftking.

Not this week you can't. All bets must be a multiple of 20cr or some of the odds won't work.

Just to be clear car less, as long as the person I bet on gets top 3 in just 1 race I get paid?

Yep, thats the deal.

Just to be clear, I'm not running this as a business to make money, rather as an alternative way for participants to gain outside funds. As such I'm actually hoping for the betting shop to be down 500cr each week. Who gets what proportion of that is a matter of who they bet on.

Now if nobody has any objections...
Car-less would like to place some bets at the Ninja Betting shop;
20cr on Driftking, and
20cr on Fabmaru.

Edit: Both near certain to win, which would round my funds up from x,x41 to x,x50. However, if they both DNF it rounds my funds to x,x01. Either way is better than 41cr!

Yeah, I don't want anyone spending all of their tuning budget at the betting shop - and I don't want to bankrupt the shop over a single bet!
500cr on Fabmaru it is.
 
Code:
Flynn's CR-X:

3776cr available
-2800cr (semi-racing exhaust)
=976cr left

166hp -> 173hp

Team Twin Engines did not make a good showing at the First Circuit. This will change.
 
Code:
360cr on Hot_shoe @  1:3
 40cr on Anderson @  4:1
 60cr on Car-less @  5:1
 40cr on Flynn	  @  5:1

I'll stick with the original people I betted on, but will change the bet amounts...slightly. :D

EDIT: I'm changing my bet.

Round 3 Odds:

Curious how you can come up with odds you are willing to stand against before upgrades are chosen. Specially with a bunch of the same cars, having different odds. But I can't really argue with your handicapping of the drivers' and their abilities... yet. :)
Not so sure about the betting aspect of the Sunday Cup, but I'll give it a whirl this week. (see below)
EDIT: Now is this betting that those you bet on will finish in the top 3 on any of the week's races, or top six?

I bet the following:
Code:
GrumpEone      200 CR
I bet 20Cr in GrumpEone...

Thanks for having confidence in me and my 'driving', probably more than I have lately, due to lack of practice (though I am starting to get a better feel for the RX-7, almost have it down).

Here is this weeks info, including upgrades, and betting.
Code:
Week 3

Starting Balance:	3,636 CR

Upgrades:
Wing - 3D Type DB:	1,200 CR
SP Clutch:		1,600 CR
SR Flywheel:		  550 CR

Remaining Balance:	  286 CR

Betting:
GrumpEone (1:2)		  100 CR
Driftking18594 (1:5)	   60 CR
Carless (5:1)		  100 CR

Ending Balance:		   26 CR
EDIT: Fixed Balance error (I think), please confirm BH-21
EDIT II: Adjusted bet to conform to the multiple of 20 CR rule.

"15) Selling Cars and the parts on them will be at 40% of the original purchase price and once fitted the parts go with the car. Round up to the nearest whole number. This is the same rate at which GT4 does it but not with as many decimal places." - BH-21's first post
 
Korza your Nissan is only worth 2,855 Cr in resale. If you want to change cars, the time is usually after this Second Circuit, then you will see several ride changes. You haven't upgraded your car any, if you want to keep up with Driftking put a wing on it like he did.

AndersonG22 quoted the right rule, but I noticed I forgot to remove "This is the same rate at which GT4 does it but not with as many decimal places." That line no longer applies after it was raised from 25%. Fixed.
 
This betting is a tricky business. Some people seem to be giving up left and right with their current rides, and some seem to have no faith in their current abilities. I guess that's what makes this work.
