With custom lobbies arriving soon, I thought I'd be the first one out the door with providing GTP members with clean, serious online racing championships.
General info about the Racing Series: This Racing Series will feature a variety of championships, with individual races lasting between 10-60 minutes. Races will usually be hosted on friday/saturday evenings in GMT time. All times posted by me are in the 24 hour format, and using GMT. During Summer time, everyone needs to add 1 additional hour to the posted GMT time.
Should you wish to participate in the event, you have to sign up in this thread, or by PM to me. Furthermore you have to attend at least one practice session, in order to prove yourself capable of driving clean and fair. As I've had problems before with people not showing up, the championship format allows for drivers to only sign up to specific races, rather than the entire championship. So, for an example. If you want to attend race 3, 5 and 8, you inform me, and then you'll only be required to attend those races. It goes without saying that if you want a chance to win the overall championship, you'll need to attend most, if not all of the races.
If you sign up, I expect you to be commited. Should something prevent you from joining, you need to PM me as soon as possible. Furthermore, I expect participants to stay up to date on rules, and to not ragequit the race under any circumstances. If you can't follow these simple rules, then please don't sign up. I've had it with people who sign up, only to forget about it the next day. To aid participants in keeping up to date on rule changes, ect. I've created a "conversation" here on GTP, that all participants will be invited to. That way, you won't miss out on important info.
Unique to Driveclub, any time trial in any championship will be forwarded to the participants via the in-game challenge system. Once the challenge expires, participants will then be given points according to their position on the leaderboard.
Participants will aquire points based on the position they finish in, in the different races.
1st receives 15 points.
2nd receives 13 points.
3rd receives 11 points.
4th receives 9 points.
5th receives 7 points.
6th and 7th receives 5 points.
8th, 9th and 10th receives 3 points.
11th and 12th receives 1 point.
* For multi-class races, participants will be fighting for 3 different trophies.
* For the last two trophies, the classes are of course scored seperately.
Points will be allocated after each race, and will be inserted into Google Drive documents for all to see.
Rules and Racing Etiquette:
You will of course do your best to drive clean and fair. You are not allowed to brake test or cut people off. Should you crash into someone, or cause them to spin out, you are required to slow down, and let them pass you. However, if the fault lies with the other driver, you may continue. I realise that this can be very difficult to judge in the heat of the moment, so replays will be used post race do settle any disputes. If you see or experience someone driving dirty, you notify me by PM, and I'll take action. Please inform me of the specific race, lap and turn when informing me of a bad driver. It can also be a good idea to save the replay, just in case I don't have it.
General info about the current championship:
For this championship, we'll be racing the Mini Cooper from the Hot Hatch class around several Norweigian locations. We start off in the quiet Norwegian city of Skjolden, followed by time trials up and down a mountain on two point-2-point courses, and finally, finishing off the championship on a dedicated race track. The skill of the drivers will be tested in adverse race conditions, as they battle the cold and unforgiving mountain climate of Norway.
The only requirements for this championship is a Mini with a racing number on it.
Race 1 - 10 laps of Skjolden - Date/Time November 21st at 15.00GMT
Our first race will take place in the early evening hours in the small town of Skjolden. Filled with both wide and tight turns with very little run off, this track is sure to provide racers with many challenges, as they battle to emerge victorious. It's a fine day to race on, with the weather being as clear as can be.
Participants: 0/12
Race 2 - Point 2 Point Time Trial at Hurrungane Reverse - Date/Time November 21-23
After having completed the first race of the season, the pace changes, as drivers will have to muster all the concentration they can get in order to get the best time on this challenging P2P track. Darkness has engulfed the mountain, and the wind is picking up, taking some dangerous looking clouds with it. The Challenge will be available for 3 days.
Participants: 0/12
Race 3 - Point 2 Point Time Trial at Holmastad - Date/Time November 24-26
The championship continues on as the morning sun welcomes the drivers on their way down the mountain. Just as the one before it, the challenge will be open to participants for 3 days.
Participants 0/12
Race 4 - 25 laps of SKNØ 2 - Date/Time November 28th at 15.00GMT
the last race of the championship is upon us. Starting at noon in-game time, with weather set to dynamic, this endurance race will provide us with an intense ending to what will have hopefully been an enjoyable experience. If the lap restriction of 12 does not change before this race, we'll have to settle for the 12 laps.
