The Cadillac CTS-VR Gentleman's Cup Presented by Derek Speare Designs

[plate88]

another idea for you guys to toss up, what about teams? like have a drivers championship and a constructers championship?

I like this idea:tup:

Dibs on #26. Also if we do have teams I call Plate88 since we met in real life last year.

Thanks dude. Going to be good times.👍

I'm definitely in for this series. Just hope the day and time agree. Jav, you have a day in mind? Maybe a poll?

Also, maybe have a poll of the tracks if you're thinking of running a few outside of the base sub to find out what people here have? Or we could just post what tracks we have. Just tossing some ideas around.

 

[Crushed]

What times do you think the races would be?

 

[Roush_fan_99]

Are they gonna be weekend only races? Just throwin tracks out there, I have spa and the glen and the rookie tracks, and room for one more purchase

@Roush_fan_99, ya hopefully we can run at least Watkins Glen (which everyone should have at somepoint sooner or later anyways cause it's like iRacing's most popular track). Okayama and Laguna Seca might work? Not sure bout Lime Rock with such a high hp car. -edit

Sign me up, I hope I can keep up and be respectable in time. I love iRacing for the most part with clean drivers. I agree with sandbox Watkins Glen, Mid Ohio, Mosport would be great. I am sure you might be thinking Slime Rock as well.

I am in for any tracks you guys want. Just curious would there be any type of handicap for the lower split guys? I'm thinking if some of you "A" class guys will be much faster then us lower licensed guys. What do you think?

Well hopefully we will have a wide range of talent so you will always have someone to race against.

 

[S30Zenzow]

I'm interested. I only have basic tracks, but i will buy some soon. I would like the number #21.

 

[terrible1fi]

Count me in. The new iracing league functionality will make setting this up a breeze. I'd like to race on a variety of tracks (not only included rookie tracks) but we'll let majority choose

[MVR08]

#8 for left

Why not 88? I would like that number.. But I can use the #38 if you don't want to change.

About tracks... My only purchase is Watkins Glen and I don't know if I can buy more tracks in the near future.

For the sixth track I nominate Mosport or Brands hatch.

 

[Jav]

If I recall correctly, when we had the GTP Jetta TDi series every session had practice, qualifying and then the race. I'm pretty sure Jav will follow the same format.

I sucked in that series by the way, so don't worry about my skills in this one!

Exactly the format we will be using! 50 minutes practice followed by a 15 minute quali and the race!

Oh yeah, numbers! Forgot about those...

#68 for me if possible please!

You sure you don't want a different numer...?

Thanks for setting this series up, Jav!

Count me in since I am a member of the lauded gentry! Sir Noble Patrocles IV Esquire OBE, MBE.

I will be the slow caddy running #64

Added!

Count me in also.

Also could I claim the number 85 also, pretty please.

Added!

Depends on the times, but I'm interested.

Added!

Count me in. I just had a shower too. So that makes me gentle and clean. Just a tad slow though. Caddy with the #54 and 24" spinners.

Added!

Thanks to Jav for taking the lead of this promising series. Let's just say that using the basic content is a good idea and that you can count on me (and others, please ) to transfer money or open race sessions so that you don't end up ruining yourself with hosted sessions!

Thank you for the offer! This beign a relatively short championship i think it won't be necessary, but if you guys would like you can host official pratice sessions.

sign me up but I hope we use a good track like Watkins Glen, Mid Ohio, etc. At least one or two. I know a newbie requested we only use basic tracks but that might be kinda weird. Not a huge deal tho. I'd be willing to host at least or so too

Watkins is definitely in, for the 6th track we will wait and see about Motegi and if it will be added to the Basic tracklist...

Sign me up, I hope I can keep up and be respectable in time. I love iRacing for the most part with clean drivers. I agree with sandbox Watkins Glen, Mid Ohio, Mosport would be great. I am sure you might be thinking Slime Rock as well.

Signed up! No love for Limerock? Lol!

Sounds good to me. My current subscription only lasts a few more months.. so hopefully they come out with a renew special soon.

I only have basic content right now, but was planning on adding a few tracks once I get the subscription thing taken care of.

As far as the handicap system that was mentioned.. yeah there are a few drivers here that are quite the aliens. I am thinking, though, we will all have at least a few people to race with.

Maybe we can get some of the aliens to give us a 1 lap head start.💡

Lol!! Added!

I'd like to do this time pending of course, just warning though I'm still a rookie.

Ok guys for the Day/time I was thinking Saturdays or Sundays somewhere arround 18 GMT, this time slot I think reasonably suits everyone from Europe to Australia. But nothing official yet, we will have a pole to decide the time the races will be run once we get a better idea of what time/day suits the group better.

Thanks for getting me added. I hope to be able to make the time we come up with. The series sounds like it will be fun. Jav, I raced with you the other night. It was the 2nd GT prototype mixed class race of the week. I was driving a HPD with the old Honda F1 paint scheme. I pulled up beside you on the cool down lap for a sec .

That was you? Sweet! That car looks so awesome! Love the livery! Looks just right on the HPD!
Hope we can all find a good time slot for everyone!

edit: wrong thread

 

[plate88]

Thanks for adding me Jav. You even remembered my number.👍

Hey Spec, what's our team name going to be? Any ideas?

I vote for Sundays. Actually that's the only day I can race in something that is organized. Work always getting in the way of simracing.

Haha yeah that was me. I'm sure you were wondering "WTF is this guy doing riding beside me?" . Thanks for the comments on the paint. It was a free paint someone did off the forum, but I like it pretty good. I don't have those kind of paint skills that's for sure.

If we race on the weekend and it's not too early in the day for me I should be able to make it.
