I know. Don't know how we can make it more attractive to people. I guess if we post on here it goes to the top of the thread list?
I can't speak for anyone else, but I can tell you why I haven't joined this series, which I hope will help you attract more drivers.
1) Tire Selection
From the OP: There are NO tyre limits so choice of tyres is very important. Racing hards will have less grip but more durability whereas racing softs will have more grip but tyre wear is increased.
If the above statement was true then the open tire selection would be fine, but it is not true.
I was just looking at the first post, it says about Racing Hards wearing better than Softs. Although this is true in real life, it isn't ingame. As you slide around more on Hards, it actually wears the tire down faster.
What LancerEvo7 has said is true. Racing hard and soft tires do not have different durability; they only have different grip. Furthermore, racing hard tires will actually wear out faster because you slid around on them more. Because of this everyone will inevitably use racing soft tires.
I don't like racing a car like the Silvia on anything stickier than racing hard tires.
2) Driving Aids
I don't like driving with any driving aids besides ABS set to 1. Since it is not fair for a driver with no aids on to compete with a driver with aids on (skid force recovery namely), I would have to use driving aids to be competitive in this series.
3) Track Selection
Either I'm blind or there is no track list in the OP. Obviously, there are tracks that I prefer and I don't want to join a series that doesn't have my favourite tracks and has tracks that I dislike.
I need to see the scheduled track list before joining a series.
4) Signup Slots
From my experience, series that have a fixed number of signup slots are not successful compared to series that have qualifying each week. The reason for this is that many people who say they will race simply do not show up, and once a series has about 16 racers registered not many other people want to register to be an alternate or reserve driver. I have seen a series with open qualifying each week with over 40 people registered on have only 16 to 18 people show up for qualifying.
I only sign up for series with qualifying each week for each race.
5) General Organization of the OP
I've wasted time on too many series that failed because the organizer was unorganized.
If the OP of a series is not well organized I will not join it. In addition to what I have already mentioned, like no track list, the following are things that I don't like about the OP:
The race start time is not correct:
http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/city.html?n=136.
British Summer Time does not equal GMT. BST = GMT + 1hr.
Does qualifying start at 6:30pm BST or 6:30pm GMT? There is an hour difference between the two.
The OP doesn't explain the point system, and there is no parts list for the car to ensure no one installs parts they are not supposed to on accident. For example, are you allowed to install "rigidity improvement", increase the power with engine tunes and then use the power limiter to meet the series power requirements, etc. I like to race in a series where each car has identical parts installed.
**************************************************
As the series is organized right now, I don't see much of an advantage to racing in it versus random races online, which have no commitment requirements. Generally, I come to GTPlanet to race in series that have tire and driving aid restrictions and a field of identically equipped cars.
