Gauging interest:S2000 Tuner Shootout

[dumkopf]

Never mind. I"m abandoning this.

 

[dumkopf]

Anyone? Any critiquing maybe?

I think the problem is that you need to include a little more detail in your description mate.

I (and others) generally try to give as much detail as possible. It helps if we can make an informed choice, and helps generate interest and discussion.

Well, ok. 2 S200's from each company. Amuse, Mugen, and different factory ones. i.e. Type-V's and normal ones. Since there are 2 different S2000's (AP1 and AP2) That could come out to 4 more teams. The Amuse one would be the Amuse Road Version. I think that's what it's called. It's the first one in the Amuse showroom anyway. The Spoon one is much too fast so that's out of the question. The 1st week we'll have qualifying. To see how everyone stacks up. Then the next week we'll have the race. Then repeat the cycle at a different circuit until the season is over. I'll cap the season at about 10 races long. So 20 weeks. I'm thinking we'll do this in GT mode. Rather than the usual Arcade mode, as you can't drive the cars from your garage in arcade single player. I was also thinking that we'd do it in a track meet. Put the difficulty at maybe 6 or 7. Max of 10 laps in qualifying. The actual race will be at 5 laps. Family cup not so much as you can only do 2 laps. Tire selection would be up to individual drivers. Nothing to the right of S3's though. In other words, no racing tires.

you need spiacific cars to use and performance restrictions makes the compotision tougher ;you wouldnt want somebody coming in useing a amuse gt1 so once you get that ill think about:idea:

 

[dumkopf]

I don't think I was clear enough. I'm proposing that we use the following cars: '99 S2000, '99 S2000 Type-V, '03 S2000, '03 S2000 Type-V, Amuse S2000 Street Version and the Mugen S2000. The factory S2000's would be limited to the following mods:Racing Clutch, Racing Flywheel, Carbon Driveshaft, Weight Redux Stage 1, and up to racing exhaust. Anything else would be off limits. I've found that with this formula the Factory S2000 can be just as quick as the tuner ones. Also, no mods for the tuner ones. The whole point of modding the factory ones was to get them up to par with the tuner ones. If someone believes they can take on the field with a stock S2000 then more power to him. To shorten it, You can either buy a tuner S2000 and do NO mods to it or buy a stock S2000 and mod it without breaching the regs I just put out there.

 

[GT4 defistation]

so whens the deadline to sign up?

 

[dumkopf]

Well, I wanted to see how much interest there was. You're the only one so far

 

[GT4 defistation]

you gotta realize that series dont start of just like that it takes time
people do like to run multiple series on GTP

 

[dumkopf]

So what do you suggest? Should I just set a deadline and go?

 

[GT4 defistation]

i would suggest posting your series on the
current series running on gtp
it may help a little
