Rounds 19/20: Nurburgring 24H (Change Weather), 1 Lap

~Each meeting's second race is a reverse grid event as well.

~Also, I have thought of a system for success ballast. Or rather, using the system from the BTCC http://www.btcc.net/html/regulations.php JUST TO NOTE THAT BALLAST CANNOT BE MOVED!!!

1st place = Add 45kg
2nd place = Add 36kg
3rd place = Add 27kg
4th place = Add 18kg
5th place = Add 9kg
6th or lower - lose all ballast


PTS SYSTEM:
1st - 15
2nd - 12
3rd - 10
4th - 8
5th - 6
6th - 5
7th - 4
8th - 3
9th - 2
10th -1

Contact is allowed (a bit of rubbing and pushing), but not anything too dirty like deliberatly drilling someone at a hairpin into the wall. If anything too untowards happens, penalty points may be added after a discussion of the incident.

Damage is visual only or limited? Need your guys opinion.

I'm looking at starting next weekend (Saturday 12th) at around 7pm GMT. I'll allow some more time for testing and seeing how everyone goes. Good luck!

Yes, that seems to be a problem with many series. People say they'll enter and do so for a
couple of rounds, then disappear

All you can do is continue to advertise here, and make sure you let all your psn mates know

Still racing hard tyres is it? I want to get a bit of practice in :D
 
Wait! Why are the races so short? We could at least make them 30 minutes each. I don't think I'm gonna make a comitment for a 10 minute race...
 
Could you make Nurburgring an extra lap because once is just a bit boring?

I might not be able to make the second race because i've got karting at 8
 
2 laps as a season finale is good I suppose... 3 races per meeting as well. That's like real BTCC.

Also, Laguna Seca as a race instead of Le Mans?

2 laps? I say 5!
Why such short races? There's no chance of stablishing a pace, work a pit strategy or have an intense battle in a race that short!

2 laps of the NURBURGRING 24H is a roughly 15 minute race. Real events aren't all too long either. Touring Car's also haev no pit stops.

Well it is your series and I see the direction you're going. I will not commit to the series, but may come arround for a race or 2...
 
I've had a look at real BTCC race lengths... and they were longer than I thought. So all race distance have been extended by 30%.

Still got 8 entry slots open...
 
What sort of lap times have you got so far around cape ring. I've manage. A 54.114 seconds but I've only done 3 laps in my integra so far.

Is their a limit to the amount of people using the same car so we don't end up with a grid full of BMW's for example?
Would their be a constructors championship too?

GO TEAM HONDA!👍

Yes there will be an unofficial teams chmpionship. I have managed 56.5 seconds...
 
I'll join you guys for this round at least. I'll have to see which of those cars I have but I'll most likely be using the Lexus.
 
i would like to join and i have a friend who would maybe join i will tell him to come on and have a look or are we too late?

also if people are using the same car does that mean there racing for the same team like in the btcc? or are there no teams?

thx

i will be using the toyota altezza touring car

7pm qualifying... Top two drivers per make count towards team points.
 
Hello, I don't have any TOCA car yet.

I would prefer the BMW or the Lexus, so I'll change it for any car of the same value ± 25%, that I can buy in the dealership.

Thanks for your help.

Diego
 
I know 2 people who were interested in joining when I spoke to them today. They're both going to buy the mazda hopefully but i'll keep you posted on the situation.
 
my friend said he will join when he gets back for deffo but i dont know his car yet he will post on here when he gets back
 
thomas_stacey94 will be using the altezza touring car if possible.

Also, how will you know if people have added ballast or not?
