Good idea that we may use for the next series. :)

This is mostly a test run to see how many people we can consistently get to race, and stay interested. When you join, looks like 7, which is pretty decent!

I can't figure out how this online shit works and while GT5 is fun, I'm moving to BF3 like right meow.

Obviously the easiest way is to just do spec races, but i really want to avoid that.

I need to do more testing and see if maybe i can come up with 4-5 very evenly matched cars and crack down on car restrictions by model. Would be easiest to enforce.

Might as well go to spec then. Because an NSX is going to have a very different skillset than an Evo, than a Lotus, than a Vette, etc etc. Someone's going to get pissy if you don't pick a car they like. That being said, limits are fine, but I think we have to go with max power/min weight... or PP. And still stick to the no ECU nerfing. I dinno. There's always a way around the rules... we all discovered that when you didn't write in a ballast clause.

I mean like... 4 cylinder convertibles. GO! That sort of thing.

I was just trying to figure out something that would be 100% enforceable.

If we can all agree that the honor code is AOK, then i'd say we'll just continue in the future with a PP limit, no power limiter, no ballast allowed, and specifying whether or not race cars are legal. It keeps it simple.

Maybe a future series we'll do a JGTC series or something.

I'm cool with the honor system, personally. It's not like there's money on the line or anything like that, it's just for fun anyhow. Why else would I be considering building a pickup truck for our series?

Thats cause I play all the time. Noticed my milage was 55,000 compared to hayder at 5,000. I didn't notice what others had. And I do pretty much only online racing.

I looked last night... and yeah. I'll have 24k cleared tonight. A lot more than I thought I had. Granted 75% of it is B-spec (I have 3 capped drivers, and one race left to have B-spec 100%) but i've spent entirely too much time on this, considering I stopped playing for almost a year, and it's only when this series started that I got into it again.

Lol sorry... i need to update in here... we talked in the week in the chatbox. :D

Racing is on for tonite as far as i know, 8pm your time.

Tracks are Tsukuba and The Ring, in that order. I need to work out the number of laps for Tsukuba, but The Ring will be 3 laps.

Post up if you'll be joining, need to make sure we still have enough. I'll for sure start posting up in here at least 2 days in advance with details, that was my fault.

Both Tom and Picklz are out, so we'll move it back, then. :)

Do we want to try something during the week? The evening 8-9ish time is about the only time i'm available, but any day but wednesday should be fine. Or we can just do next sunday as usual. PS: Tracks will maybe change. ;)
