<U-D-T> Vs TEAM D-Spec

Just a thought guys what time and date is this event? I thought it was Sunday evening? Just cos Saturday day time i'm at the GTAcademy Wildcard event at the O2.
 
So when is this gonna be.. I originally said i'd help out and judge so i'll be one of the judges and i think hms is the other
 
Jimmy i'm happy for you to judge with me but we need at least one other judge from the other team or impartial.

As you all know from previous experience I am a very fair judge and if we lose then so be it.

Jimmy maybe you be the chase car (will be good for replays too!)
 
What about sunday night. 10... 11ish

And as far as I know.
I may be wrong.

I can barely remember but i'm quite sure those drivers got high in qualifying

Don't know the 6th sorry :-/

Anyone remember? Am I wrong?
 
That's too late for me, got an early start on monday. 6pm UK time would suit me best, 7.30 at the latest really.

I'm out friday night and most of saturday.
 
HMSmotor, could you post the rule book or the link to the rule book on here?. I never got ur email on Yahoo mail... and I think 7 or 8 PM ur time would be fine with us... Thanks mates
 
between 6 and half 7 suits me as well, was the 6th driver Gonales? can't think who else was in the quali run lol

I didnt qualify. I step down. If you guys really can't find the sixth driver i will fill in. It all depends on my question in our team thread though.
 
Regulations:
- RWD Cars (FR)
- Comfort Hard Tires

Rules:
- Only 2 cars at a time, one from each team.
- Lead car always has the right of way!
- There will be 2 session for each pair. (So one team leads first session, then the other team leads the next)
- Only one car per driver.
- Cars will be inspected by the judges and other drivers to make sure they meet the regulations.
- Chase car cannot pass the leading car unless the lead car is fully off the track.
- If the chase car hits the leading car and the leading car's drift line is altered (gets pushed higher up on the track then intended or goes off the track) because of this hit, the chase car automatically loses.
- If the leading car goes completely off the track, (all 4 tires are NOT on the track) the leading car automatically loses.
- After both cars make it to the finish line, it is up to the judges to decide who preformed better.
- Only judges can use mics during the race. Judges will talk to each other and commentate the battle going around the track so the other drivers know what is going on. Ex. (1) has taken the lead while (2) spins out into the grass, but then (2) smashes into the wall too hard and (1) is able to catch up. Something along those lines. Judging should be fairly fun for this event.

Score Sheet:
Judges, you may copy and paste this and just fill it out for every driver as they go.
-------------------------------
For Single Drift Session Only
Driver:
Team:
Speed: [-/25]
Angle: [-/30]
Line: [-/30]
Style: [-/15]
Every time two or more tires go off the track, 3 points will be taken off from style. One tire is allowed off the track because some people use grass to initiate a drift.

-------------------------------
[0]---------[5]-------[10]
Horrible - Average - Perfect

The team with the most wins is declared the winner.

Tracks:
Suzuka Circuit (D1GP Section)
The start line at the top of the hill.

All drift events will be done in a race so that way they can be recorded and reviewed.

Schedule:
1. Once all drivers are in, as well as the judges, the schedule and the rules will be explain.
2. 5 minute shakedown session.
3. Cars line up.
4. Cars go one at a time through the D1 Downhill section. Judges will score every driver individually based on angle, speed, and style.
5. Best drivers from each team will be the first to tandem. One team will lead this round. Followed by the second best, third best, and fourth best.
6. Drivers will tandem again with the same opposing driver but this time the leading car is switched.
7. Judges will announce scores after each run as well as declare which team is currently in the lead.

8.Winner will be declared, results and pictures will be posted. If anyone has a capture card, I can send you the replays to record for me and I will mesh all the footage together to make it an interesting video.

Couple of amendments to the rules...

No FD RX-7's - they are too fast for tandem
I will host the room as some of our members have had issues joining your room.

CAN EVERYONE FROM D-SPEC ADD ME SO THEY CAN JOIN MY ROOM - PLEASE STATE YOU ARE FROM D-SPEC
 
I didnt qualify. I step down. If you guys really can't find the sixth driver i will fill in. It all depends on my question in our team thread though.

Well, it's pretty obvious im not going to battle. bit to fast with changing the post really. As i stated, i was not sure yet. Im sure now, that im not driving.

Im sorry, have had a rough dy, and after a chat with HMS, i decided to stay on the team. If you still need me hit me up. I will be there for the team if you guys need me.
 
WOW.. Best battle EVER!! that was epicly close and D-Spec.. You guys got skill..

Rex We coulda drifted all night my man but someone had to win mate!
 
I second that, was epic, a worthy advertisement for GT5 Drifting !

An edited version should be on prime time tv around the world to advertise it :P
 
Final score 7-6?

That was definatly a great show..Cant believe how close it was right down to the last rerun.

Congrats UDT 👍 and im very proud off all DSpec competitors for holding it down like that.

Thanks HMS, Jimmy and TMROCKSTAR 747 For judging.. Went really smoothly
 
proud to be part of this, even if i did lose both my battles, some absolutely incredible drifting on both sides and some really good banter as well! D-Spec were an absolute pleasure to drift with, so thanks to all of them, as well as the other members of UDT for making my first official battle a night to remember!
Cheers
Nick
 
There is apparently. Will need editing, went on for ages lol.

My best (my 2nd and final) run wasn't in race so never got recorded :@ lol

Epic entry ftw, and no-one gets to see it again :(
"no pressure ;), if you win we lead"
I hear over the mic (HMS)
I think to myself
"maybe shouldn't try that crazy entry again, failed last time"
(run starts)
1st corner, epic entry, pulls it off ;)
haha
Also good to hear the guys on mic, was a good laugh.

Couldn't agree more with the above comments. That was the closest, most intense and friendly battle i've ever experienced (in reality and gaming).

D-Spec have really shown they are force to be reckoned with and seriously good luck to anyone who takes them on... you will need it!!

Thanks again for everyone's professionalism, we had no drama's, bitching or any call's of unfair judging so everyone was happy.

Once again well done to D-Spec, to come within half a point after 5 re-runs is an epic acheivement!
