Cool!!
 
C'mon Guys, a field of two isn't gonna cut it. Join the series, it'll be a great experience where you can just chill and have fun.
 
Man, I would really love to run the cars with their original hp... But hey! I'm in either way!
 
attention all, i realized the points system would not be fair, therefore i removed the class system. All of the cars seem very balanced between power to weight cornering and traction.
 
Yes? Do you want it turned off?

By the way,for those who are applying, the following cars are taken:
Toyota GT-One (Myself)
Peugeot 908 Team Total '10 (Jav122678)
Audi R8 Race Car '01 (A7XMaverick)
BMW V12 LMP Race Car (Laharl)



That's all for now. Feel free to apply, I will be checking this post tomorrow after I get back from my classes.

I would love to see autopilot off!!

Cool!! But why are you mixing both classes together?
Are you thinking of doing any pre season testing this weekend?
 
Because of the way how scoring of the races would work. Here is where I encountered problems and here is a made up scenario:

"Jav122678 is in the LM class, and GhilliePepper is in the LMP class. After racing the Nurburgring, the top 5 were all LMP cars. Jav122678 came in eighth with two other drivers placing ahead of him that were also in the LM class. GhilliePepper placed just after Jav122678 in his LMP car. The points 1-9th place for that race are as follows."

LMP Driver 1 -16 Points
LMP Driver 2 -15 Points
LMP Driver 3 -14 Points
LMP Driver 4 -13 Points
LMP Driver 5 -12 Points
LM Driver 1- 11 Points
LM Driver 2- 10 Points
Jav122678 3- 9 Points
GhilliePepper- 8 Points

The problem is that the classes would be in the same race, and they would be sharing for first place in some LM cars will get jipped out of their points. The same goes to those LMP's which finsh behind some LM cars. I just combined them because the cars seem very balanced.

I'd really love to join, but I also want to race with stock LMP and LM cars, at least no turbo upgrades. I believe some others would want to race that way too, maybe you can start a poll, see what the majority like to race with?
 
Hey Ghillie, can you please specify in the first post which driving AID is permitted and which one is not? Usually I drive only with ABS=1 and the others not permitted

I second that! I would love to run the cars stock to keep them as close to they'r real counterparts as possible!
