You might want to read the OP. Each car needs two drivers.

Couldn't I use two drivers under my username and my teammate two drivers under his username? At least that's what I got from reading the OP.
 
Michelin
Ah.. damn. Well, reserve me at least one GT1 Corvette. I'll get a teammate soon hopefully.

As inconvenient as it can be, I understand it. Knowing the people that would likely join, there would need to be a lot more rules before he'd allow it.

Nah, ain't no problem. I thought it was going to go more into morten's GT3 series which you can run two names under one username. But this method is actually nice, changes a bit from what we've seen so far in B-Spec series.

Actually, I've been thinking in starting my own, a bit of a fun series but probably ain't gonna work :lol:

Hmm...interesting. In my mind, I'd want to do either an IROC based series or go 1949 on you all and create a "Strictly Stock" series.

There's a NR2003 mod with 50's or 60's cars.. I could go dig it out for you.

Let's get this back on topic now. :lol:
 
Michelin
My idea is a SuperSpeedway series finishing out with a double points event at a figure 8 because yes. :lol:

Hell yeah, do it with the MCLM mod and then people can have whatever car they want and it'll be perfect

I have downloaded cars from '00 to '07 for Original Cup Mod, so it would be something more like "choose a year and a car and let's go racing!!" to be a easy series to run and have attention.

That's a good idea too, I have like 3 series I've come up with, but have no interest in running, one being similar to that but not being exclusive to Superspeedways

Well, I'll work on it right away! I'll be back soon with everything set up!
 
I would like a spot in this series.

That was the idea I had was to do an IROC series like the real series with the Camaros. But I couldn't get everything organized the way I wanted to.
