No offense, but your Miata race and your decked out V8 super car race looks really boring. Why would you deck out a road car and call it a race car? Don't you do actual race cars that race in actually series, like LMPs, Super GTs? Thanks for the offer though.

You want a challenge, I offered it to you. Your loss if you choose not to participate. Don't come on here and complaining that you want a challenge racing online, then turn one down when it's offered to you.

Sometimes it takes more skill to race "decked out road cars".

Just admit you're scared, it's ok. :)

Oh, and don't double post.
 
I must say that your OP is far from waterproof.
The quality of your OP is way below standards to attract the best drivers.
I remember when I was going to read about your series.. I quit reading when I came to the "rules"..
Expectations are much higher around here.

It takes time to find and attract good drivers around here. You wont gather a good group in a week. It took me like 10-12 mounths.


Another thig, that might be worth taking in to concideration is that you started up a GT500/300 league..

I don't know exactly how many leagues that features those cars that are running right now.. But the biggest one, "WSGTC 3", is held at 2 different time slots (To attract drivers from all over the globe), and run in 4 paralell rooms. Then there's "DA's GT500 Series" on another time slot, so the drivers that are in to JGTC/SGT racing most likely race in a more organized and well known series than your own.

As I said, take your time. Join some series around here. I can promise you that joining any "PURE" series (FMCS, GT4, Integra Series, and GTRA WSGTC 3) will give you and your friends a run for your money, in terms of organization, in terms of sportmanship, in terms of rules, in terms of pace. Good luck! 👍

Nah man, I already did 4 hour Roadster, and man that was boring. And for the decked out road cars, I keep all my cars clean. As I said, thanks for the offer.

Yeah, I kind of got that feeling when I looked in other threads and they had all these MLG like sponsors and spread sheet like introductions. I'll keep trying, thanks for the advice man.

Like it or not, those kind of threads are going to have the type of drivers you are looking for. If you're not willing to try them out, then good luck because you're not going to find what you are looking for. Coming on here and complaining isn't helping your cause either. Several of us have tried to be nice and help you out, and you keep backing away, which makes this thread nothing but pointless.

I get what you're saying, I know how Super GT regulations are in real life. They impose weight on the top 3 drivers, and I see some races have stewards? How do you regulate this on a video game?

I hope you are not confusing the random online "PP rooms" for the series that RT or Aderrrm run. They may be road cars but they are very fun to drive (Wheel, or DS3).
You may have more luck finding/hosting a good series if you keep your eyes open to racing other cars.
And it helps not calling the people that show up to your a race "slow".
Any of the PURE or PURE Spec GT500 or GT300 racing series will give you many fun/fast/clean drives.

I don't join PP rooms with randoms, me and my friends host private matches. Of course the Miata's are fun to drive stock and clean, me and my friends drive them from time to time, from the looks of it the cars that Miata race are DLC cars. I don't have the DLC. As for the people that showed up, I thought they would be good so I was all nice to them. They said we were cheating so they left. What GT500, 300 racing series do you propose?

^^^^ That would be the main one right now.
Most of the others are not allowing new sign ups or are almost over.
 
I propose doing something else. Too many SuperGT series right now, be original.

What do you mean by "original"?

Come up with something new, don't go with what the "herd" is doing.. At least thats what I think he means.

What new thing can you do in this game? My friends and I are so bored with this game it's not even funny, which is the reason we came here to find people that are good. We don't race decked out road cars, because that's ugly. We've raced like every race car in this game. We can't race the DLC cars because we don't own the DLC.

There's a 1000+ cars, use your imagination ;) and seeing that a good percentage of them are road cars, I'm afraid you and your friends might be out of luck.

Hey, I didn't say I didn't like driving road cars, in fact I drive them more than the race cars. I don't drive road cars that are modified, they gotta be clean.

Well I never said they had to be modified, you could run a spec series using say, an M3 or a Mustang. Honestly, there are almost endless possibilities.

Yet you keep denying offers to actually race good people. Your problem is you want to do it on your own terms and it's not doing you any favors. Your personal illusion that hopped up street cars are not fun to drive is also not doing you any favors.

What I meant by "original" is come up with something that nobody else is doing. Unfortunately your choices are going to be very limited because you refuse to drive modified road cars.

Of course, but when I mean we've been there done that. I mean that.

Well then I'm afraid you don't have much choice , you're not really helping us help you though, you keep denying all our ideas. I can recommend any of R1600 and companies series, they're a great group to race with, they're fair and fun, but also very fast and competitive.

I'm all up for racing, and yes the reason I originally came here was to race on my terms. In my opinion those cars aren't meant to be modified, they're meant to be driven stock.

Honestly man, I would have to talk to my friends about this.

Then why are we able to modify them? If you're not, well then you're missing out on half the game. Its what GT is. Buying, modifying, tuning, and racing cars.

What I get from your attitude is that you think you're better than everyone else, and if we don't race you with your own rules, then we don't matter because we race "decked out road cars".

LOL
That's really rich.

And it's no wonder you can't get anyone to race with you. :boggled: :rolleyes:

Your manners do not recommend your opinions.

There's tons of people racing super GTs & LMPs.
Maybe you're not good enough to race in any of the 20 series going on with those cars at any given time???

Frankly, I think LMPs & GTs are Booooooooooooooooooooooring.

They drive like they're on rails.

Get a clue! Different strokes!!! :indiff:

Seriously man, I'm not one to level a troll accusation lightly but after reading your posts I'm damn close.

Take it from me mate, ALL you need is a sunny disposition and a helpful nature and you can do anything with any car on any track anytime with anyone.

My group started with a single thread post and after 5 months has 112 members and has literally had a huge impact on my life, seriously, and it wouldn't have happened if I had your attitude.

What you're doing is driving people away, simple as that. You will always attract more flies with honey but you're dishing out vinegar by the bucket load dude.

You can take this any way you want but the fact is you're trying to start a league and you're doing it wrong.

And if you want a challenge I'll challenge you and your two mates with 2 of my drivers and I in GT300 cars at the 24hr Nurb circuit with full damage, no aids, weather and time. 2-3 hour race open tyre choice.

*slaps Nero with glove*

Challenge offered.

I'm fine with GT300s at Nurburgring, though my friend plays on this 30 year old TV, we've tried to do night races before, but he can't see at all. Why would you have full damage on, plus the tires are fake in this game. I still accept your challenge though. I propose this:

300s
Racing hard to medium.

Nurburgring 24

Everything off except ABS.

Everything on Real except penalties and damage
 
I think a good series would be Jaguar XR9LM's at Spa and Route X. Y'know, to get started...
 
No damage?
Sounds like cheating lol.

Nah mate, full damage with open tyre choice plus weather that's the challenge, can do daytime for your mates old tv though.

Spagetti69
No damage?
Sounds like cheating lol.

Not cheating IMO but I definately prefer it on especially for long races 👍
 
:lol: Accepting a challenge from Heathenpride in a Nurburgring race...

Screw it, I'm down. Make sure to put a time and date in this thread as soon as you boys have it figured out.
Anyone else keen?
