Sounds good. I suggest racing on Spa day. Then we can use it for our GTR Rank.

Should we meet on ventrilo tonight, say 8pm to finalise everything?

And maybe have a race or two.

Damn...four tracks to practise on!

works for me
I'll be there, and on ventrilo, but I won't be able to talk much... 8pm is about 1am here and the wife'll be asleep in the room below me, and the kid'll be asleep in the room next to me, and my voice carries pretty well. So, I'll be there, just not talking much.

or not... Liquid seems to be doing well.

I would like a few more decisions on some points tho..

1. Server start time?
2. Practice/qual session length?
3. warmup or not?
4. exact race start time
5. standing start? (will this be based on qualifying time?)
6. race length? minutes?

diseased · Post by **diseased** » Thu Jun 09, 2005 1:01 pm

something I'd like to echo is the previous post re: opening up the classes. I think it's gonna get a bit boring with only F360's and Porche GT3's.

Liquid · Post by **Liquid** » Thu Jun 09, 2005 1:04 pm

1. Server start time : 8:30PM
2. Practice/qual session length? 20min Practice : 10min Q
3. warmup or not?: N
4. exact race start time : 9:00 first Race : Aprrox 9:45 2nd race Finsh just after 10:pm
5. standing start? (will this be based on qualifying time?) Yes
6. race length? minutes? 2x 20min Race

it also creates the issue of drivers drving beyond their ability's with a faster car.

so far the praccy races have indicated there is enough competition between drivers to keep it interesting.

and this first round of races is testing type round as well. we dont know if the game/server will handle a full league or goes tits up.

good point... what I'd had in mind was something along the lines of the way, say, ...damn, can't recall the name of the league... it's a GPL league.. anyhow..you'd tend to have the much faster drivers taking slower cars, etc in order to balance the field out some.
However, yeah, based on the last couple of nights, it looks like things are close enough as it is.

edit: Mybroga... that was the league... three of the guys I used to race GPL with on Wednesday nights wound up joining them

ok, if we're gonna go with skinning the game-stock cars, I'd like to reserve the #71 Ferrari.

Growler · Post by **Growler** » Fri Jun 10, 2005 11:24 am

Number 58 for me thanks.

i think the racing will be fine with just ngt cars
we had a good fight last nite on brno it was close and competitive.

Major Havoc · Post by **Major Havoc** » Fri Jun 10, 2005 12:38 pm

The good thing about GTR is when you crash.. you tend to crash off the track

Unlike Nascar !!! Which is good for Rookies... enjoyed last nights spin... will keep practicing..

I'd like to reserve #51 Porsche GT3 RS

Post by **Inspector** » Fri Jun 10, 2005 1:06 pm

If we are making our own cars then there is not an issue, I'm sure the DuD's will have the nicest looking cars as always (unlike the Ponsters and the exceedingly ugly SlamTV cars), but if we are not then there will not be enough cars to be able to reserve cars. There will have to be double ups?

diseased · Post by **diseased** » Fri Jun 10, 2005 1:09 pm

there's something like 12 360's and 18 Porsches
how many people do we have?

Growler · Post by **Growler** » Fri Jun 10, 2005 1:34 pm

Maybe we need some of the 24h cars in there.
Morgans etc.

Growler.

BAZZIL · Post by **BAZZIL** » Fri Jun 10, 2005 2:01 pm

I'll be making standalone cars for the dud team hopefuly with a self installer

so our numbers would be the same as our nascar ones (and if skuz is racing in GTR) :
444
567
512
999

famin · Post by **famin** » Fri Jun 10, 2005 2:10 pm

I would REALLY like to see the SEAT, Vertigo, Mosler and Morgan in the mix.

The Morgan is always counted as an NGT anyway in GTR Rank so why isnt it there?
