:D Sorry, Obviously ONLY for NTSC users!!! :( (w/Basic MK's knowledge.)

Everyone's favorite question: "How do I get the Diablo???" Once they get it they're never heard from again. My theory: It's got Way too much HP (621) to race against the other JGTC Racers & doesn't handle well enough w/Full Mods to put up a serious battle w/the "Big 3."

SOLUTION: w/help from Heydu & Famine I've taken lots of HP Out & made it competitive w/JGTC rides & added an extra BONUS!?!?! I also have 2 "Mystery Beta Testers" helping out to make sure the races will be Challenging.

Before I spend any more time finding Competitive Venues (what a shame the AI drive like IDIOTS @ LSR & SS Rte 11) thought I'd best see if there's any real interest. As I've not done this before would like to limit this first attempt to 5-7 Races. The key word being "RACES." No "Hot Laps" or "2 Laps in a Cloud of Dust", but 10-15 Lappers w/"Possibly" an Enduro thrown in.
Thanx...UB57 :D
 
I might be interested in this as a nice distraction from the TORC series currently running. I'd love to just do the series for fun, not my usual super-competitive races that I always find myself entering:lol: I take it you would have a hybrid Diablo all set to use, we just download it and go from there? If you could get about a half dozen people or so I think it would be a pretty fun time.:D I think a 5 race series would be about right with the final race being the longest. Enduro perhaps? :scared: I'm ready for the challenge!:trouble: I'm sure if UB's running the show it'll be fun.:cheers:
 
You'll need someone to wipe down the track and turn off the lights, so I'm in.

Still considering it...
But dang I'm curious/interested.
Hate that I'm going to have an increased workload, here very shortly.
 
WELCOME Aboard!!!👍
:D Now that I've got more interest will have to find 2 more "Close Races" for us to run. Will have 1st race posted up SOON!!! Thanx...UB57
:D
 
OK Guys:
:D Since I'm well aware most of us are engaged in other OLR Series (Especially Boombexus' Weekly Challenge), on Which Day of the Week would you like to close out each round ??? Send me a PM w/your choice & I'll try to make it convienient for all. Thanx...UB57

How many drivers are you looking for. I could post this over at my home board to see if there is any interest. Some guys just love long races. Mention Enduro and they start to:drool:

I always used the term "Chambered" instead of ready to go.

Looking forward to this.

Thanx GT3mich: 👍
Consider it DONE. BTW: Since I'm NEW to that forum would you help make sure "Slowpoke" gets the pertinent info???

Diablo Race #1 to be posted TOMORROW!!!
The RULES are actually quite simple & should make for some FUN races, but they also take a bit of space, so they will be "PMed" to you all along with the "HP Multiplier" factor tomorrow, instead of listing them with Each Race. (Hope this makes sense!!!)
Special Thanx: Go out to my "Beta Testers" (who shall remain Nameless) & to the members who critiqued the Rules Page. Thanx also to Famine for his tutorial on the HP Multiplier which made this series possible. One more "Unsung Hero" will be acknowledged before the "Mystery Race." Dearly HOPE you're all looking forward to this series as much as I am!!! See you all Tomorrow 👍...UB57
 
Send me the info and I'll pass it along to Slowpoke. I'll be sure to include an invisible brick to slow him down to our level.;) He is quite fast.

:D I kinda figured "Slowpoke" was meant in "Jest"!!! I've run & rerun these races trying for a combo that yields an exciting combo. My only hope is that you "Fast Guys" don't find them "Boring"!!!...UB57 :D
 
Can you just make a .ini file that we can import the car into a save from?Just attach a zip to download.;)
 
Hey UB, how long do we have to do each race?

I'm in Arizona visiting with my folks right now and I won't be back to my place until Sunday.

Will I have any time left? If not, then I'll just start with week 2 if that is ok?
