VRR Super GT Series--Thank You EveryoneOpen

[Spirit]

When is the new room expected to open?

Uh, 5 minutes ago.

 

[vetteman24]

Ok Angel that's fine I will see you all in Fun Runs

 

[Eva]

The sad part when this is still equal to PCars servers...

 

[Ameer67]

Oh so NOW it updates? Thanks PD.

 

[GTRacer22]

Trying to get in.

I was trying to get in Bambi and I could hear you but it was still in Nurb logo.

 

[Ameer67]

Well guys, Comcast decided to poop on me.

 

[Suzumiya]

Sounds like Comcast.

 

[CinnamonOD]

Well guys, Comcast decided to poop on me.

Free market-based capitalist model FTW!

 

[Suzumiya]

Sorry about not being able to finish. My weekend schedule's is always up in the air. :s

 

[NearCptNitro]

Great Win Angel!!!👍

 

[vetteman24]

Congrats Angel! And Bambi!

 

[GTRacer22]

Congrats Angel and Bambi, both well deserved wins and championships. 👍

I'm more than happy with the second step on the GT300 podium in my first race. Didn't have much practice beforehand and the car setup wasn't so great, but all's well that ends well.

 

[nascarfan1400]

4 races in VRR out did 3 seasons and 2 years of Touring cars. Cant complain

 

[Spirit]

As much as I wanted that #1 on my car I'll be content with #3 for next season. Great win Angel, you deserved the outright title more than I did. Thanks to everyone for being competent drivers and not pulling any stupid maneuvers. Obviously I'm stoked on my first GT6 championship but it's time to put that behind me and focus on Season 2 where I'll be joining @trobes29 on Lexus Racing in a pair of SC430s #3 (me) and #4 (Trobes).

 

[CinnamonOD]

Not the Season Finale I wanted, congratulations to @BRRT_Angel for the championship! :tup:.

Now let's focus on Season 2

 

[Spirit]

I know it doesn't mean much, but if I were to make the schedule, here's how I would do it:

1. Motegi 300k - Twin Ring Motegi Road Course
2. Fuji 500k (Double Points) - Fuji Speedway F
3. Tsukuba 300k - Tsukuba Circuit
4. Sapporo 300k - Autumn Ring
5. Fuji 300k - Fuji Speedway F
6. Suzuka 500k (Double Points) - Suzuka Circuit
7. Bathurst 300k - Mount Panorama Motor Racing Circuit
8. North American SuperGT Championships (300k) - Mid-Field Raceway
9. Tokyo 500k (Double Points) - Special Stage Route 5

May switch some rounds around but yeah totally these tracks.

There's a lot of things to cover, so everyone better read through this news bag.
1) First off, congrats to @Whitetail on the GT300 Championship. I'm going to be honest, I was hoping the race wouldn't restart. I was not in good shape and just wanted to sit in ice. But it did and I pulled a double. I will not be using the number 1 for S2, which by the way is definitely happening so that gives Outright Points runner up (Bambi) the last option of using the number 1 before it is put out for another season. If Bambi decides not to use it, then numbers 1 and 2 will not be used by anyone next season. (#1 is reserved for Outright Champion, #2 for GT500, and #3 for GT300)
2) Bambi brought up a possible schedule change. I'm not to inclined to rewrite the calendar for a fifth time, but I will concede that the champions should have a chance to curb the schedule, so Bambi, of the races on the calendar right now (website has the accurate calendar right now), you get to pick an international race and change it to your liking. My selection was already made, so you can not remove Circuit de la Sarthe. Hopefully you can give me your pick by this weekend so I can update that ASAP.
3) Nurburgring showed me a lot of things. Nordschleife is fine for these cars once everyone stops being stupid. The problem lies with getting everyone out of stupid stage and into race mode, so once I update the thread, there will be a list of tracks we will never go to. A lot of it should be common sense anyways, but I do know who I'm talking to, which is why it's needed.
4) With the array of internet issues, which has been sighted on the behalf of the ever magnificent PDI servers, last night was a strange night. Outside of @nascarfan1400 and his livestream, no other broadcast will be available. We will try working out a broadcast test some time during the off season, so stay alert.
5) Not too many rules need changed, but obviously there are gray areas to color in, so the next week I will be spending time going over that. If you have any suggestions that do not entail me changing the layout of the series, tag me in a post and share your possibly ridiculous ideas. I'd be open for easy paperwork.
6) At 1:00 p.m. EDT, the thread will be cleared and the OP will have just the points standings for the following in this order; Outright, GT500 Drivers, GT300 Drivers, GT500 Manufacturers, GT300 Manufacturers. This will be the case until I post full S2 rules and regs this weekend.
7) Remember that registration for Season 2 is open. Anyone interested in returning is welcome to do so. Updated licences will be revealed on the website tomorrow. For those that have already registered, send in a driver picture for the website. I'm tired of looking at boring pictures of nature.

At least I did something somewhat right. #BetterThanHRL

Well guys, Comcast decided to poop on me.

It's quite alright. The racing thinned out about 20 minutes in anyways. We'll figure out a different time to test the broadcasting.

 

[Spirit]

I sure hope Bathurst isn't on that list of forbidden tracks. I enjoyed testing there.

Also, I only use numbers I earn, so I'll be #3, not 1.

I enjoy Bathurst, and I hope it stays in. You get to change a race, so if you don't change it, it'll be staying. Bathurst does touring car racing very well. Banned tracks would be Kart Space, GT Arena, London, Zahara, N24H, Nordschleife, SSR7 and ovals.

 

[Ettick]

Banned tracks would be Zahara

 

[Eva]

Between invisible walls and jumps, I'd rather not deal with that mess.

 

[nascarfan1400]

It's obvious why ovals are forbidden but still

 

[GTRacer22]

Sounds good to me, picture will be in shortly. 👍

 

[Eva]

Reg testing will be happening Monday and Tuesday. An open test for all drivers will be on Wednesday. This program will be the case all the way to the end of the month, at different circuits NOT on the S2 calendar. This week's program will be taking place at Ascari Race Resort.

 

[Spirit]

I'll most likely be having a photo shoot at Mount Panorama sometime in the near future.

Remember that driver pictures have to be shots of the cars at stationary positions. Motion pictures, if submitted, will still be featured on the website.

 

[Spirit]

I will have both stationery and motion pictures. @trobes29 wanna make it a team shoot?

[vetteman24]
