...racing designed especially for and to include you is happening this Saturday, February 21. The only qualifications you need are:
1. Intend to drive on the track without contact
2. Cleared C, B and A class offline races
3. Own a Nissan Fairlady Version S '07
#1 is because that's how it should be done, always.
#2 is because the race is at Expert Class 650pp Fuji Speedway F.
#3 is because this is the car we will be using. With R3 tires, minimum weight, maximum power and a TCS set at 5. Remainder of default setup is to be left as-is, leaving driver as the only variable.
The point of these races are for new and inexperienced online racers to learn by participating in an environment of fairness and helpfulness.
Veterans, you are more than welcome to join and be a positive example.
Noobs and lurkers, here are more instructions should you need them.
In the 'driving options' menu:
Automatic or Manual transmission is up to you, it makes little difference to speed. I will be using Automatic.
Turn off steering assist.
Turn off ASM, it prevents you from driving the car properly (for racing).
Traction Control prevents wheelspin, set it to 5. This setting will allow some sliding when you apply throttle.
Driving Line is up to you, I recommend 'off' due to it taking focus away from what's going on around you.
In the 'quick tune' menu:
Set power to maximum possible +24.
Set weight to minimum possible 85%.
Tires should be set to R3 and R3.
Your Performance Points should be 649.
Traction Control can be set to 5 in this menu as well.
All other settings leave alone, everyone participating should have an identical car.
Race Times:
On every :15 past the hour.
Using the in-game analog clock, I will begin at 12:15 EST (perhaps an hour earlier) starting a race with this car, and continuing on every :15 past into the evening. This leaves time to do a race at :45 past as well should you choose.
Anyone wanting to participate, do so simply by starting at the same time. The race takes about 20 minutes, be prepared.
Anyone with questions, please ask them by either posting in this thread (by clicking 'reply') or by sending me a PM here (by clicking on 'clacksman'). I will answer every one.
