Well, look at the date above the video, then look at today's. Once that's done, treat the video like a hype commercial.

Thanks

So you know, it took me three looks to get it myself. Sorry if I sounded like a jerk.

No its fine.

1st and then 2nd in championships so far - In terms of cracking, I think I definitely have the most to lose when I do!

Pumped though, one of my favourite elements for this is the livery design!

 

[swiftsmith]

One week to go can't wait! Who's ready for next season to begin?

 

[Pezzarinho17]

If these are the cars unveiled, I will be very happy. And I call shotgun on the Top Gear Rocket car design for my livery.

 

[BKGlover]

I hope we keep the same cars. I still have to learn what adjustments work and don't, but that said...

@Earth will we ever go back to the Champ Cars? I've still got my stuff, don't want to trash it if there's a chance.

No we wont go back to Champ Cars. Long term I hope GT7 has a proper B-spec mode with working online and we can all move to that. If not I might move to rFactor 2 or Assetta Corsa or something similar.

Yeah, something like the remote race feature from GT5, without the remote thing, with qualifying, and the ability to choose the cars for each driver and tracks

 

[Pezzarinho17]

I think the series (short term) needs to keep changing the car used. In the first season, I won half the races once my setup was nailed and it probably would have been tough for anyone to break that advantage. I'd quite like to see the GP2 car used: http://www.rfactorcentral.com/detail.cfm?ID=GP2 2011 by F1SR
I'm sure you already have plans though!

Looks like a quality mod and importantly, it has templates. However the new car was already chosen and I have spent the last 2 months testing it. Technically, this is far more advanced then anything Ive ever done. Its been an extremely grueling and lengthy testing process. Hopefully it turns out OK and you guys like it.

Can we get little things leading up to Monday?

My tuning methods aren't gonna hold up, are they? Welp, there's a wall over there...

Cant say anything more until Monday

Okay

 

[Pezzarinho17]

I saw your post and instantly read it as this!

Just a little

 

[CinnamonOD]

With the increased interest in Fantasy Racing leagues, I hope this one (S3) gets a big grid

 

[Earth]

After evaluating how much time I have to run this, I've decided its best to shelve the new series.

NOOOOO

 

[CinnamonOD]

What?

Come on!

 

[BKGlover]

Come on!

Calm down you two. He said shelve it, not kill it....unless he meant that.

In either case, the two past seasons have been fun, even if I was laying eggs constantly, and I thank you for bringing them to fruition. Perhaps if life permits later on, you can blow the dust off S3 and we can all go again.

 

[Pezzarinho17]

@Earth gotta do what Earth gotta do. This series must take a lot of time to operate, and it was good to see everyone acknowledge that at the end of S2. Personally, I wouldn't want to see S3 return and suffer because it doesn't get the time it deserves. Once again, you know how grateful we all are that you have put together 2 fantastic series and will be waiting here eagerly for when you perhaps do have the time for S3 👍

That said, if you also think of a way in which we can take some workload off you then please share here and see who puts themselves and their time forward to help, I know I will!

 

[swiftsmith]

I'm with @Pezzarinho17 just tell us what you need.

 

[BKGlover]

As much as I'd like to help, I'm going to a new job where OT is the norm so I'm out. That aside though, I don't think this is really something where you can have 2-3-4 people running it. @Earth can correct me if I'm wrong, but the person running it has to organize the cars, figure out what works, fix what doesn't, run the event, and record the video. Even if someone takes it from editing on, that's a lot of work that if I'm thinking right can't really be dispersed.


That said, I couldn't run something as simple as the Cool Wall, so what do I know.

 

[Earth]

Thanks everyone for the support, hopefully I dont let you guys down again.

Im going to announce something tonight, not a series, but something really different bspec related. It wont require a long term commitment from anyone. I'll leave it at that. The thread should be up in 6-7 hours. I hope you guys like it

Dude, letting people down is my job. YOU did nothing of the sort. If anything, you kept us from being let down by playing things close to the vest, all we had to go on were possibilities, speculation, and a deadline you set for yourself. If anyone claim as much, they can shut up and leave as far as I'm concerned.

I shall await the moment with a grand interest, my good sir.

Wish this was a post with good news, but its not.

Over the past month or two I've done alot of testing with different mods and such and never really got what I wanted working.

I'll be going back to the school in the fall so I have alot of less free time as well.

I've decided its best just go go ahead and end the series.

Thanks again to everyone who participated. If anyone else would like to make a Formula style b-spec/offline/fantasy series, feel free to do so. I'm moving on.
