12 hour race :REGISTER NOW:

[james6653]

This is a 12 hour race at la sarthe 2009 weather/time change with chicanes.
There must be a driver change every 3 hours by using the private chat setting all teams must have 2-4 drivers. The stints will be 70 laps witch will give us time for cautions and stuff
Here are cars that all teams can chose from
First there is the DP class any LMP as long as it is at 695 PP and

Then there is the LMPT class must be at 620 PP the cars you have to chose from is the Jaguar XKR coupe 2010 the aston martin DB9 coupe 2006 the MERCEDES BENZ SLS AMG 2010 the lamborgini gallardo LP 560-4 2008

how driver changes work: you open a private chat thing between you and either 1 or 3 of your friends who are on your team for the race and every 70 laps you tell who is next in line for your team it is there turn then you leave so that your teammate can enter then after everyone is in the room and blued up the race will start

Hmm.. What day were you thinking of running this? I'm interested but I need to know the dates before I can tell you if I can be there

So, what happened to this one? Or this one? Or this one? Or even this one?

Perhaps you need to look at why your series/races don't get off the ground before blindy re-creating another one. You just seem to follow the same pattern with no real information, not many folk express an interest, races don't seem to happen and you seem happy to just continue that trend. Something has to change.

as mentioned before it is your race idea, you should come up with the rules, then they can be discussed....

I know I am gonna I was just asking him because he was raging on my ideas

 

[daan]

Come up with proper rules and regulations with a car list and settings/parts allowable. Like here and here. Your posts go along the lines of "I'm thinking about doing a race here with some cars. What do you think?" which is way to vague for anyone to take notice of. People like to know what they are getting into before the commit.

Perhaps you should shorten your races too. A 12 hour race is a big commitment especially as there is no set date/time. Saying you'll start when you've got 8 drivers is a bit silly as some of those 8 may not be available at the date/time you chose, and by the time you've got 8, the first few who signed up may well have lost patience (or forgotten about it) and are away off doing something else. Announcing a date first is always best.

Seems to be lots of people on this site that have nothing better to do than rag about this or that.Wonder if they are the moderators or wanna be moderators.

Daan has a point. I see a lot of threads by the OP and others that post up "interest check" threads and don't plan anything out before they do so. They expect other people to come in there and plan it out for them. You can't be a successful online series or race starter if you don't bother to sort it out yourself.

Not really sure if you're calling daan a troll here, if so then you're not really helping to prolong your stay at GTP. He is right, the OP posts way too many threads with not enough detail to warrant creation. Some would call it spam.

If you think the moderators here are trolls, you're on the wrong forum. Judging by your attitude towards them, I don't see you lasting very long.

 

[james6653]

I almost have all of the specs for the DLC cars

Just trying to help out by pointing out where he could do things better.

I'm not moderating here. All I'm doing is offering some advice.

Not sure what you're going on about here. We PM warnings and infractions but, as I said before, I'm not moderating here as there is nothing to moderate. I'm not trolling either.

 

[james6653]

I will soon have a list of specs for the DLC cars

 

[RYAN]

Do you know what grammar is?

who

 

[james6653]

Ok I will start taking entries from people that would like to race in the race

 

[rallymorten]

Ok I will start taking entries from people that would like to race in the race

As I said before, my entry depends on day and week..

 

[james6653]

As I said before, my entry depends on day and week..

look at the day the pole and add 14 days

 

[rallymorten]

look at the day the pole and add 14 days

So will be May 17?? I have to look in my calendar as I have exams coming soon

 

[james6653]

Yes or the first Saturday 2 weeks after the pole ends

 

[Racingworld68]

That would be on my birthday, lol.

I still think 12 hours is too long to do this by yourself. But i like the idea.
You could also arrange it like this ; people could team up at home with 3-4 persons so they would be able to do a real driver change during pitstops. You could for example organize a 'country competition' where different country's compete against each other (Team Canada-Team USA-Team Belgium, etc)..

just an idea offcourse...

I kinda like it but I think people should since I'm gonna set the laps for 50 because that would be about 2 hours get a few friends that play GT5 with you and every 50-100 laps leave the room and send your friend in

not sure if i understand you correctly.... what i mean is that you have to play with your own friends at home (2 or 3) on 1 account.....

 

[rallymorten]

Yes or the first Saturday 2 weeks after the pole ends

Oh.. Of any weeks on offer, this is just the one I'm 100% sure I can't
I can if we can do it a week earlier/later

That wouldn't work for some people so just use friends that play with regularly
