OR CONTACT ME. Document is updated almost everyday, so check it everyday.

We are currently hiring some people to support the Eiger Rally 2012. You do not necessarily need to participate. More info available on the document above.

WANTED:
Currently, we are looking for 2 people to be in the lobby of the event, for the three days. Those people will need to select 'Watch Race', when in the lobby. As for when I call someone to start, one of the two people watching MUST focus on the driver whose turn has started. The main job of this is to watch the driver, and look if he/she has done something considered as a penalty.
A reward will be given to those who help out. (Optional) The reward is ANY car from the Dealership (Premium), that is under 1,000,000cr.
If you're interested, please PM me!

It sounds interesting, but I have a few questions:

1) Maybe the car-age restriction is a little too "new"? I'd personally drive the '99 Impreza, '99 Focus, '99 Lancer or even older models rather than the newer ones simply because of the looks, performances and the history these cars have. It's just a suggestion, but maybe a restriction to 1995 or later would be more fitting.

2) TCS is optional and not mandatory, right?

3) and most important: Do you have any day/time in mind?

1): Ok, I will take that into consideration. Thanks for the idea.

2): Yes, TCS is optional. Why would I force that everyone uses TCS?

3): As I said on the thread, I'm still thinking about it. Though It think it will be around the end of May to early June. Probably on Saturday.

1) Ok, just in case you don't have the cars I mentioned, and others from that period, you can borrow some by me.

2) I don't know, it was just the way it was put on first post (TCS: ON) if you know what I mean.

3) OK

Pace car? You mean the car that drives the stage before the rally cars do?

The pace car in the rally pretty much marks the starting and ending of Special Stages. That is just that drivers concentrate on their time rather than worrying where the heck is the end of the Stage?
I'm currently hiring for one (JUST one), as I'm one too! (I host the race, play as the pace car, and mange the rally)
I've also updated the Google Document of the rally. Make sure you check it out, as it is updated constantly.

What do you mean by that? Sector to sector? Or 1 whole lap?
And rallymorten, are you participating in the rally?

Ok, you probably haven't checked out the document. But we are using different sectors of the tracks to make Special Stages out of them. Check the document if you are joining, and read it carefully!

Unless you want me to get up at midnight I'll be there with a '99 Impreza. Thank you for allowing them

But just so you know it, the best chances for me racing is in un-even weekends

Ok. But I doubt it will be on a Friday, Nor midnight. But it will be in Monday, or Tuesday.

I've been asking my friend today, so let's leave a day or 2 for him to answer.

If this gets enough interest, do you think it could end in a full championship?

P.S. Speaking about interest, why don't tell your friends about this!

I mean, if the Eiger Rally has enough interest, do you think it could lead to more rallies so it can become a championship?
And I am asking my friends

Well, the idea I had when I created this rally was to have 2 rallies a year. Random tracks, that is. This winter, I'm planning to have a rally in Chamonix. So possibly the rally will turn into a championship soon.

P.S. I was aiming that other P.S. for others to see.

Oh, I see

Yes, could be fun to do a whole championship. Maybe not all like this one, but with track-generator courses (I've made a small WRC calendar with those, each rally consisting of 3 stages)

And just re-read the document, and I'm not complaining or anything, just asking if I get it right:
Wide angle drifts are no-no.
Wall collisions are no-no.
Flips are no-no.
I know it sais there will be penalties, but I'm just thinking, what if a driver purely accidentally just snatches a wall or by incident flips his car? Of course doing so on purpose is definitely a no-no, but things can happen, and I'm just asking if there will be "investigations" of the accidents that may be.

If that happens by accident, their penalty time will be the same. Kinda like the Gran Turismo Rally, it doesn't matter if you hit the wall on purpose or by accident. Plus, the wide angle drifts, is for turning early. So if you turn 1km before the corner, you'll get a penalty.

OK.

And I don't have any response yet

And, speaking of Gran Turismo Rally, well, it is better than in GT4 and the previous ones, but still far from perfect, true story
