Welcome to W.M.A. the World Motorsport Association



Thank you for taking a look at the W.M.A., the World Motorsport Association.


Here at the W.M.A. we provide a central point for racing series that enables drivers and observers to participate under the umbrella of a consistent, clean and close set of racing series. The W.M.A. upholds the GTP OLR Code of Conduct and we value clean and close competition. The W.M.A. encourages all drivers, whether professional hardcore junkies or casual racers, within the GTPlanet community to join us in all of our sanctioned W.M.A. events.

W.M.A. will run a ladder system, meaning that all of the newest/unknown drivers to join this association, will have to work their way up to the ITCC, MCM, Bankfin, or any type of the bigger series.



W.M.A. recognizes all disciplines of motorsport. Just because most of the series listed are touring type events, doesn't mean W.M.A. has forgotten about the other disciplines available. New series ideas and any other ideas are always welcomed. If there are any other event organizers that would like to become associated with W.M.A., then please PM any one of the Board Members.


If you would like to register as a competitor then you can do so ... CLICK HERE.

Competitor feedback, both positive and negative, is strongly encouraged but in a constructive manner.

This section is currently still a work in progress. We all hope, that the entire rulebooks and Driver's Handbooks with tips and such will be completed before October. In the meantime, we offer you the progress that we have made.


Driver's Handbook

This is the W.M.A. Driver's Handbook. The W.M.A. Driver's Handbook, as it progresses, will help all drivers, new or not, to further drop their lap times, become competitive, and have clean, exciting racing. Reading the W.M.A. Driver's Handbook is highly recommended, especially for those who are just joining. It will offer you plenty of tips.

I once joined a club like this. It seemed great in the beginning. But it soon lost interest and is now god-knows-where. I'm not saying it's impossible for you to get more success, I'm just saying most people don't give a f-word about a "fictional" online career. I would gladly join any of the Series you are hosting if only times (and in some cases distance) was not as bad for me as it is.
 
Well this is not so much of a "online career" ... it's more of a centralized focal point for different types of series that's going on on GTP ... Think of it as a one stop shop being able to link you to any type of racing series that catches your eye ...

Hey Rally. :)


Thanks for the input. It's not that we're looking to make a fictional career out of this, but, it's more that we're looking for ways to sort out the cleanest drivers and the somewhat clean, from the not very clean, and the dirty.


I understand what you're saying, but, I'm thinking that the main goal will be to learn new cars, new techniques, and clean passing procedures, by rewarding good behaviour with more than just a penalty-free season.


The cleanest, and most mature drivers will quickly find themselves in the top tiers of this series. The less clean drivers might not. I think some of this is inspired by iRacing, but is completely different in one way: execution. We have 1000+ cars to play with, on GT5, and a good game. However, there are people who play iRacing because of the cleaned-up racing.



We're trying to run a very clean series, with few bumps and taps, so that the GT5 racing series will be clean too. And, we have full-fledged feeder series everywhere, because, between the three co-chairmen of this Club, we have five series, and each of them looks great. Having a rewards system to reward good drivers, instead of just kicking out the bad ones, might be a very nice and rewarding change from the normal.



I won't trashtalk any other series, or any other drivers, but I'd like to run in the cleanest races possible. I think it's a step in the right direction.
 
Can you then explain to me how I've misunderstood these parts:

Established / Well known drivers are more than welcome to register for any series they may desire. For new drivers who wish to join a W.M.A. sanctioned event, they must first begin in a Rising Star Trophy, to establish themselves as a clean and fair driver, before being able to join one of the bigger series.
But remember, that as a new driver, you will be automatically placed into the Rising Star Trophy.

Especially the first part makes me believe you're trying to make online career, but it might just be me :)
Depending on various criteria I might check out the Rising Star Trophy

There will be three. We're discussing some, but one will be a FIAT 500 1.2v Lounge spec series, and the other will be a karting series. Again, it's a spec series, and it's designed to be really nice and easy on beginners, so that they don't have to do any tuning to remain competitive. :)


Once they start to understand more about how it all works, they'll be able to move up in the leagues, all the way up 'til, for example, Formula Masters. After that, I'm pretty sure that it'd be safe to say, that they would have learned a LOT, and this is sorta like a racing school (Skip Barber,) only for a PS3, so it costs WAY less.

No where close to what you assume ... we just want to try and promote clean and close racing ...

Using you as an example, if I may, you would be able to join in on any series your heart desires, due to you being a well known and respected racer in GTP. If you were a newbie and have not made a name for yourself yet on GTP, then you would have to start from the bottom to prove yourself ...

We are not trying to discriminate or anything. All we are trying to do is make sure that everyone who decides to join anyone of the current and future series will know that they can expect a clean and fair race ... all the time.

Well, Nizmo's Bankfin series is quite close to that time window. I think it's a two hour difference. It's the closest thing, so far. I'll see if I can make something work, though, if the Bankfin doesn't work.

25 hours earlier should be possible :)

The problem is when I'm at my mom's place (which I am every time except every other weekend) I may only use the PS3 for about 45 (if I save time I can make it an hour and a little more) in a certain time-of-day slot (though I've succeeded in arguing for exceptions to race previously), but that's my 2 cents. I must say that I'm interested though 👍

Alright. I'll personally keep you in the loop. We're discussing all of the options now, from <400 pp spec series to Formula Masters. :sly: We'll certainly have a nice thick schedule. :lol:

Sounds good 👍 I'll keep an eye on what you come up with and have a look at it ;)
 
World Motorsport Association announcing a new series: Star Mazda


Today, it was released, that among the several closed-wheel touring car/endurance series, an open wheel series will also be available, run by MrMelancholy15.


Click here for further details.



Among further information, MrMelancholy15 was quoted, saying "There are lots of series in the works. It's no secret that there might be a kart series, too. If there is, it will run a shortened version of the schedule for the Star Mazda series. It will include tracks like Autumn Ring Mini, Suzuka East, and Grand Valley East."


The World Motorsport Association plans on organizing many series, specifically for the enjoyment of driving.
 
Mel told me to check this out... And I'm glad I did!

I would like to help organize series/ races and of course race!
 
A polite welcome to our newest members, Rallymorten and polarbear345.



I'd also like to congratulate -ourselves- on having some pretty awesome series going here. Wow. :)

Dude, this is getting me hyper, man. I can't honestly wait 'til FIAT season starts. :lol: Star Mazda's looking great, it's working out well for my Tuning Garage, having all these different types of cars, and having replays of everything from Star Mazda, to rally, to FIATs, and VLN, and Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge. It's incredible, the diversity of cars we have here.


Too bad, that you can't really tune go-karts much. :lol:
