WSC World Sportscar Championship - Spurgy, Niop, Jaguar champions!!!

[Spurgy 777]

The OP looks good 👍 will see how many of the cars I can get over the next couple of weeks

 

[Carbonox]

Can't wait for the new season, have to defend my crown going into the 3rd season of WSM, I'll take a Chapperal.

It's spelt Chaparral.

 

[neljack]

Ferrari please 👍

 

[cgr-10]

Hmm, like I said I'll keep an eye on this. I'm limiting myself to Indy, Cup and TOCA ATCC and to be honest I'm rather liking the look of PURE:CALM.

If I don't find the time, have a good season. The races look epic and I can vouch for the amazing Camaro and Challenger in particular. Great car choices if anybody sitting on the fence.

 

[DaxCobra]

Ferrari please 👍

Oh God, not you too with a Senna avatar.

Also, Furi, sign me up with a Ford.

Everyone seems to forget Ratzenberger

Everyone seems to forget Ratzenberger

Because Senna was a hero to people

A lot of people forgot about a lot of people in f1. Senna was a big idol lost, same for Marco

But he died a day before Senna, yet hardly anyone aknowledged his death a couple of days ago....

Anyway, off topic topic is off topic.

I agree - shame for both loses

 

[DaxCobra]

I'm not saying its bad to pay respects to Senna, but he wasn't the only loss that weekend.

[rustyMercedes]

I'd like to join, time works for me and I could take the challenger

And the Challenger it is then 👍 Welcome aboard!

Hoping for more people to C2, a fairly even spread I hope.

@Dax, C2 cars are quick but not as fast. Spa season 1 Corvette was 7 seconds a lap off and around Monza around 3.5 seconds. C2's can win overall, but only if they're is a catastrophic turn of events for C1 cars I reckon.

Should we have just c1 and C2 championships? Or an overall with both classes as well?

 

[DrifterJoe]

What driving aids are allowed, just ABS?

EDIT: 2 more things-

1. Is there any limit to how fast we can enter the pits at Sarthe? (if you enter the pits flat out, the autodrive will cut across the chicane in the pits. Some clarification is needed since you can gain a lot of time from this when pitting. I think this is also a faster way to get to the finish line, and could be abused in qualifying and at the race finish)

2. Which pit exit do we use at Daytona Road? (you can exit before turn 1, or follow the pits round further)

 

[Rockr]

I'LL take the challenger not gt40 psn: Rockr_Elite. Thanx

 

[rustyMercedes]

And the Challenger it is then 👍 Welcome aboard!

cool thanks! I vote for separate championships

I'm pretty sure if you go in to fast you drive straight through (without pitting) either that or it resets you at the beginning of the pit lane a la Daytona. 👍

Not sure about the quali idea but I think the chicane is a bit before the finish. (?)

 

[fastfox400]

Furi, I'm golden for this series. I'll be participating in a Camaro Z28 RM

 

[gokartman78]

i have just bought the Chaparral 2D, and i now have 20,000 cr. i guess i will take the jag then . only joking , i am racing the 2D, mainly because it is the only car that i have that doesn't try to kill me round the ring.

 

[FlyingFox]

I vote for two seperate championships plus an overall table.

 

[Ellis]

that doesn't try to kill me round the ring.

Quoted for childishness

I gave it a go when practicing and was still able to pit as normal. The gravel/sand in the chicane slows you down enough that you won't get a drive through or get reset and held in the pits for 10 seconds.

I'm not 100% about faster quali times if you fly into the pits, since I've not tried it on a fast lap.

I did a little practice at Sarthe last night, only to later discover that my car was down on power.

I did a little practice at Sarthe last night, only to later discover that my car was down on power by 9bhp or so. My fuel and tyre testing will be slightly off due to this.

I suppose it's down to Furi to decide then, but I think most people would try to use the normal route (slow for the pit exit). 👍

I'm hoping Furi decides it's cutting. If it is allowed in the race, then I think a good amount of people would do it due to the time you can gain.
