Thinking ahead: GT GTR series?

Post by famin » Mon Aug 08, 2005 1:23 pm

Hands up those who are keen to have a GT series after the NGT one ends?

I know I am for one.
The choice of cars is far wider for a start.

It would be interesting to see who would choose which car also.

I would be ecstatic if liquid and eagle would continue the organisation and I certainly welcome the concept of adding weight to the winning cars etc.

How about a 2nd class for G2 cars eg Morgans etc, that would be cool, Fast Guys have the Fast Cars, slower guys have fun cars to drive, ALL HAVE FUN :D

definatly I find the others more fun and easier to drive than the ngt cars by the way was wondering if the weight handicapping would work in our league as well?That morgan whil;st a bit slower than some has the best sounding engine in the game its like beautiful music

Count me in please

In between leagues we should test some other stuff.

How about a race at Imola?

Or an Escort race?

Or both?

At this time it is highly unlikely that I will continue to be involved in the running of the league.

I'm keen for GT cars and I think everyone else is too. Hopefully we'll be able to use custom skins as well. I'd like to run a short Escort series in between but I'd also like to run it on the NZ tracks so that might have to wait until Danman has had time to convert them. I am however certainly keen to do some escort racing on the default tracks at some point.

Imola sounds like a good idea, I had a quick run about on it a couple of weeks ago and it seems pretty good. Limerock and Watkins Glen are both well made tracks as well. The Road Atlanta track I tried was not very good, I like the track but it's a poorly made version.

Randolph: I don't know. I'm kinda ****ed up in general, so it's hard to gauge.

Some things i would like to see

Full grid of cars, different points for car classes (you might come 9th overall but win you class)

2 races:
1x short sprint race
1x longer race with 1x pitstop with tyre change

Skins

I like how the standing starts have work , so stay with that (thats my vote).

yes i wouldnt mind the G2 cars, the Strieff deserves a run for sure as does the Mosler.

Do I detect Liquid is still Ok for organising? If not I could be roped in. ;)

Damn that GTL racing looks good tho... even an austin Healey!! But the capris and BMW CSL's look the business! (see my other thread for movies)

the sheer competition in the NGT's is getting the NZ ranking up there in the GTRank site. We should do the GT's if only to do the same for the Nations cup ranking! :D

I'd be keen to do the GT's as well.
Yes - I'm looking forward to GT Legends. In fact I have ordered my copy already. (Gameplanet - due 4th October)
The demo I believe is going to be released next month.

Mmmm, yus GT and weight restrictions sounds gooduns :>

We can't run a serious league though, the game has too many issues for that. A league similar to what we have at the moment would be gooduns.

Would the weight restrictions work automatically in our league like they do offline?

Oddly enough, I'm faster in the Morgan than in the Ferrari at some tracks.
I'm cool with GT, as well. Wouldn't mind the Lambo.
