Ok, here's my new idea. I'm really confident that this will work, and I will make sure this series sees its end, no matter what.

The AE86 Tour of Asia
Basically, it's a race series for the Toyota AE86 models, the Sprinter Trueno and the Corolla Levin. Each week, the tour will visit a different part of Asia, and experience a variety of circuit types.

Courses

Tsukuba
Fuji Speedway 90's
Motegi Road Course
Suzuka Circuit
Fuji 2005 F1
Seoul Central
Tokyo R246
Hong Kong

Cars

Toyota Sprinter Trueno GT-Apex (AE86)
Toyota Corolla Levin GT-Apex (AE86)
NEW! Toyota Sprinter Trueno S.S Version in Unlimited Class

Race Format
  • Hotlap: Be the fastest over one lap of the circuit. Fastest time wins.
  • 2 races: Two races of the same length to test your ability against the AI (Note: For street circuits, one race will be run in the normal direction and the other in reverse)
  • Races will be done in Arcade Mode/Single Race/hoose course/choose car
  • Hotlaps will be done in Arcade Mode/Time Trial/choose course/choose car
Rules
  • All cars must run with +20% Power and -10% Weight.
  • Tyres must be either N1, N2 or N3 compound.
  • Both races and hotlaps must run with NO AIDS! (to make it more...interesting).

It seems like an alright idea, but I don't think I'd be too interested in the cars that are listed up.

Sorry but thats just personal opinion mate.
👍
 
Not too bad for an idea 👍
So sign me up for it :dopey: Maybe that would suit me better since there wouldn't be major differences in cars.
 
Thank you SkylineGoes and appie17 for expressing an interest. Your names have been added to the list. Your comments are greatly appreciated as well.

By the way, I had a look at the Car Reference guide here at GTPlanet, and I found the following:

Sprinter Trueno GT-Apex: Power - 126hp PTWR - 7.48
Corolla Levin GT-Apex: Power - 125hp PTWR - 7.49

EDIT: PTWRs were wrong. Have changed them now and I can confirm these figures are correct. I'm sure there won't be a real difference, will there?
 
Well, it should be a nice change from all these fast-paced championships! Not that the DTM series is a bad one.

Oh and while we're on the subject, I've decided to race after all this week. I'm finding driving with the controller easier than the DFP.
 
Welcome aboard, boomboy! Your name has been added to the list. Thank you for expresing an interest.

The Internet
I suppose the Shigeno AE86 would be an unfair advantage, eh?
Yes I suppose it would! :lol:
