Finished (ATCC) Australian Touring Car Championship S2 | NW48 & lxmmy Are Your Driver's Champions!!

Let @NW48 do what he wishes. If you don't like it then ignore it.

 

Whatever you say. But if your idea of keeping in contact is mindlessly double posting spam, then that's what it means to you. I have kept in contact with this thread despite my busy life and personal issues that are casting a cloud over this series. I did say that Base Specs would be out by the end of the week, and the week hasn't ended yet, so I'm still sticking true to my promise.

And you aren't one to criticize someone for not keeping contact as your WEC series went without any real movement for a few weeks, and so did your Rally championship.

It's our series. I don't have an issue with what Gremlin said, and I am working towards improving it. The thing I did have an issue with was the spiteful like from a certain individual.

True, I would like it if you would refrain from posting in here about your views and do it in the appropriate PM as it is off-topic and unnecessary. We don't want this thread to become filled up with petty arguments and have important information clouded within it.

Now, let's keep on topic, and continue posting things related to the series. Some calendar predictions would also be a good thing. *Hint, hint, nudge, nudge*

 

Looking forward to the calendar.

 

aaannnyyways.... Hoping to see A track like Cape Ring. It's so much fun to drive!

 

I like to see the Nordschliefe to be added

 

I wouldn't mind Cote D'azur or Monaco but it probably wouldn't go down too well aha so a better choice would be Suzuka or Midfield.

 

I'd rather have the GP circuit. I doubt touring cars would do as well as on the GP circuit on the Nordschliefe.

 

You need to try going around the Green Hell more. It is a great track for touring cars and recently the WTCC raced there.

 

Never got to it yesterday, but thank you Ph1sher for that glowing review!

---

And the calendar will be announced later today!

 

I'll be online in about 10 minutes to conduct some track and BoP testing. If you're available, feel free to join me as the more help the better.

 

Oh I didn't know WTCC raced there. That's great.

I'll join you but chances are I will not be there very long.

 

So, we will be reusing the ATCC Community Club from last season, so get those Friend Requests in to me so I can invite you to the club.

 

How about we race in the Type V or 24h, Layouts? Kill 2 Birds with 1 stone

 

Room is up in the ATCC Community Club.

 

Will be there later. Need to get through WALLS OF UPDATES

 

Searching for it now!

 

Just sent you an invite.

More details about the Enduro Cup will be released at a later date once all the details are finalized. ​

 

I'm worried about the Enduro Cup because I'm not sure if I can Participate in them.

 

Same, I hope I can find the time to do these and if I can I hope I don't get disconnected mid way through...

 

Only one round of the Enduro Cup will count for Championship points. The other two Enduro Cup rounds are Non-Championship events.

 

My biggest concern isn't time, but rather a lack of a partner. Or can we go all the way buy our lonesome?

 

I can and will help people find a partner, but if you can't find one, I will allow people to race the whole thing themselves. You can double up with a driver in this series. However, if a majority don't have a co-driver, we will shorten the race to 500km's.

But, unlike last season. The race will be split into two sessions (2x 500km's). One session for each co-driver. Total times will be added together to find the overall position.

 

So, BoP testing has been going well, just need to do the Subaru and Mustang (that's being a problem child). Here's the preliminary specs;

Calendar looks really good!

 

If it wasn't for the damn updates. I would've joined you guys with my Subaru .

 

It's alright mate. It was short notice, I wasn't expecting many people anyway. It was strong session though. We got through a fair bit.

 

ATCC Announcement

The first of two pre-season tests has been scheduled for this Saturday at 20:00 GMT+10 and will be held at Silverstone on the GP Layout. Attendance is not compulsory, but it is suggested you come and give us a hand finalizing the specs. Specs for the Mustang and Subaru will be finalized in the coming days.

Until then, look for a major announcement on Friday afternoon that will change the series landscape.​

 

I'll hopefully be there to get some practice down although I'm debating wether I shall do the Silverstone round... It is such a pain being able to do only 1 lap before the track completely vanishes. I'll have to see how this practice goes.

Edit: Thanks to Aaroh my Lexus is handling a lot better than before and overall faster.

 

It's alright mate. I couldn't imagine how annoying it would be, I'd probably get irritated after just 2 laps, but you managed quite a fair bit of laps during the improtu test session.

Awesome stuff! Thanks @Aaroh for that!
