Hello and welcome, to the European Cup Car Championship.


This series is an attempt to emulate the various Cup Car Championships in real life. It will consist of 3 classes. MX-5 Cup, Nissan RC Cup, and Ferrari Challenge. To spice things up a little, all 3 classes will be driving on the same track at the same time, meaning some exciting multi-class racing. From long, technical circuits like Spa Francorchamps to the narrow streets of Monaco(God help us all :D), this series will pit the best drivers of each class against one another.

ALL CARS ON RACING SOFT TIRES

BRAKES AND FULLY CUSTOMIZABLE TRANSMISSIONS, DRIVETRAINS, AND SUSPENSION IS ALLOWED



Ferrari Challenge:

For those of you who want a challenge. These cars are extremely fun to drive but the'll bite you if you get anything wrong.

Sorry I didn't clarify that. Cars can be fully customizable and racing brakes are allowed. Tires are Racing Softs. OP has been updated.

The Piss Yellow is back! :lol:
 
So tempted...

I already have the Z34 and kinda like it, but seeing that @Mires and @Ettick are both running with the small Mazda I'll try and have a go with that and see if I like it.

I'll be hopefully back to my househusband life in a couple of days. Anyone up for some practice this week?

The Mazda handles like a little formula car. It's pretty great.

That's the point of MX-5 Cup. :P Just put your foot down and go.

I just don't like the look of it. There, I said it. :cool:
I can see how it's not the best looking car in the world but I can vouch that it is one hell of a machine.

I love it, one of my fav ones since GT5. Great handling above look, do you wanna photoshoot or have fun? :D

PS: having a little personal session right now at ascari, starting with tuning. Time till now 2:16,5. Not sure if it is a good or bad time, but it drives like a train. :D

I did a 2:12 offline.
 
till PD solves the transmission i will test only in online :) but nice time. Looking forward to get better soon :D
 
Sounds interesting. I'm up for the Nissan class. Colors coming soon. I'll update this post.
 
@Mike458..... Are you really going to drive a Vadim Kogay coloured Ferrari...?

Yes, yes I am.

@FutureF1 Do we have definite dates for the races yet?

If you're talking about rims, then yes. Tires, however, are Racing Softs. Glad to have you onboard!
 
Any times for the Ferraris yet?

Also, why not add Matterhorn to the schedule as a double points round? :P (at night, in the pouring rain)

2:10.9 is my best online lap with the MX5 after a little testing

Really excited for the Sierra round by the way. My favorite track. 👍
 
:eek::scared: not better than 2:15,2 here :banghead: but i have pretty crappy tune, so no wonder :D
 
Hey guys, I wanted to see something out. IMO I think RS tires are not really great tires to use for any of these cars. I wanted to see if you guys could try out these compound tires for the cars:

Ferrari: RH Tires
Nissan: SS Tires
Mazda: SH, or SM Tires

I feel these tires will allow much more fun racing and give the cars a bit of life, because with RS it is far too easy. The cars will still be very grippy on these tires it will just make it more realistic. I feel these cars are far too underpowered to be running RS tires. Please try it out and let me know what you think.
