Bad turn out, Bad race. On to season two! Seems everyone was too excited! In Rolex and ITCC some tempers rose!
 
I had fun. I hate it for MrMelancholy. I hope he can forgive me. I look forward to season 3. Maybe we can get some more dp drivers.

Is it a close points finish for GT and DP

Well, do some math. But GT was won by a position, DP was a little more spread out I believe. But that's just because there werent very many constant DP runners.

Ya hopefully next season we will have more cars, tracks, and drivers hopefully everything goes well for both of the series

DID I JUST SEE COMAS?!?!?!?! Your learning!

And I think well have one or two street circuits. And for cars, well have the same number of cars, just divided differently. I think I touched on it in the laguna videos.

Ok well if we get a lot of intrest in season 2 I think for season 3 we add more cars and do what ALMS does just random number like the real series like when they went to belle-isle it was 8 DP to 20 GT

But there are 16 spots online. 8/20=0.4 0.4x16=6.4 so 6 dp seems to be the right amount. I mention in the video, if we did the Daytona ratio we'd have about 5.3 DP cars. So 3 DP teams seems to be the right amount for the game. The rest is GT. Which leaves 5 team spots open. Here's the current list:

Viper acr
Corvette zo6 (zr1 has not front aero either)
Ferrari 458 Italia
Audi r8 4.2 (no need to change)
BMW m3/ Mazda rx8

ALL CARS WILL BE RE SPEC'D FOR SEASON 2.

Yes I know. There is only 16 room spots. But what i'm saying is we usually have a random number of drivers anyways. why not just make it so more people can join with a wider selection cars? The highest finishing car from every manufacture is the car that gives manufactures their manufacture points for the weekend. So say there is a BMW that finished 3rd and a BMW that finished 6th the 3rd place driver would give BMW points.
 
This isn't the ITCC. :D :lol:

The car list here should be more strict, because there aren't as many cars. :crazy: I thought that was apparent; we're running a series to resemble the Rolex Sports Car Series. How do we make it resemble the Rolex Sports Car Series? By using the RSCS points, cars, tracks, and specs. :ill:
 
I think your making it more complicated than it should be. Manufacturers points is cool and all. But at the end of the day I guarantee thats not what were concerned about the most.

Bigger selection of cars would be nice. Throw in the RGT and Camaro. Maybe the Rx-8 if we can get it to be competitive. Might attract more people with a bigger line up. These are just my opinion.

Most likely will be taking the Viper next season. Ill be testing with ALMS specs until specs for this series is released. Gonna try my hardest to take care of that front tire wear issue. At least thats how it is in my tune.
 
Yeah. The RX-8 and Camaro would be much better, in competition against each other. But, the Audi/Viper/Corvette (do we want to run the Corvette/Viper? There're only two Corvettes in the actual Rolex Series, and only one Viper...) would have to take a bit more in terms of weight, and a little less HP, I think.
 
I was watching a little bit of the race today. Viper got no love as far as air time went. :( :lol: Speed Network absolutly sucks when they do their own coverage on anything thats not NASCAR. Most of the time its all NASCAR anyway. 👎
 
Yeah, that would explain it then. Honestly dont follow the real life series at all. Why is it the Viper doesnt make it to each race?
 
Damu when you texted that you were leaving i was approaching a corner and it distracted me a little, went into the sand lol.

Sorry fella, Just didn't want to "vanish," although maybe I should next time.

Bad turn out, Bad race. On to season two! Seems everyone was too excited! In Rolex and ITCC some tempers rose!

Oh boy, I still felt ITCC whilst in race. Also Polar, are we opening a new thread for whom has applied to compete in which cars for season 2. Just that I'm still unsure of which car I want to drive next season

There will be a seperate season 2 thread, with the updated cars and stuff soon.
 
I think I actually ended up third in dp points. I had two second places. Shows that we need more participation if I can run two races and finish third in points. Anyway congratulations Seth and Ant.
 
He joined in the second race, so not that late really. Now Kev signed up late, haha.

Congratulations on the winners. I'm excited for next season to begin.

Damu, it will be in my signature! I can't do it today though, but I'll do it Friday or Saturday. (finals this week) and we need to have some things ironed out first anyways.

We are going to have a 10 week championship, with a race each week. I think we had 8 this season, so there will be two added tracks. We will still have 2 pre season races (but well have a caution test race this weekend) so do plan on coming this Saturday! It'll be after the ITCC race, as pretty much half of us do that too... It'll be a few shorter races and well try different options for cautions.


And no James points aren't final.
 
Thank you guys for your congratulations!!

And, congratulations to everybody because I think it was an excellent championship, too balanced, good drivers, fast, clean.....I like that, and all of this makes a recomendable championship, congratulations POLAR!!
