Here it is. The first draft of the league structure, guidelines, etc.

With Apophis' blessing, a new forum/subforum/subsection/whatever has been created to house the racing league info and discussions. All threads pertaining to the racing league have beeen migrated here.

Until I can get these logistics and loose ends worked out, I present to you the following so we can start twisting our wrenches and try to keep our cars from swapping ends while we gear up for the first race!


PLEASE NOTE - Full series structure guidelines and rules moved to sticky thread. - CLICK HERE



Keep in mind

- While contact is sometimes unavoidable, always try to race cleanly.
- Finishing the race is preferable to risking (and crashing) unnecessarily. Twenty laps is pretty long. Save the car so you can race to win at the end.
- Win by driving better than the other guy. Don’t try to be faster by exceeding your skill over the car’s limits (and physics).
- Yield to the faster car. Blocking invites wrecks, especially in a turn.

Rule of thumb – 2 cars approaching a turn… the inside car has the right of way if the front of their car is even with or ahead of the outside car’s. Inside car can’t pull up at least even? Then he has to back off on the pass attempt and yield to the outside car.

- Practice! The track, race time, car(s), etc are all prescheduled. Learn how it all goes together for you. Figure out where the racing line is. Race against the AI in cars like you’ll face. Learn how hard you can drive to be fast and consistent. Monitor tire wear and fuel consumption - plan for endurance and when you’ll need to pit. Too aggressive and you’ll need more tire changes as they get chewed up on the track.
- Most of all - HAVE FUN!
