    Sunday at 9pm will be the default time unless I/many others arnt available.
    Pre-race free run will decide the grid. That will be running from around 8.30. Its fastest first btw.

    1 track will be selected after the following one to allow people the practice it for the next week. Also a bhp limit will be given. Each race will be roughly 10 laps depending on how long the track is.

    The points for all races are as follows
    1st-25--2nd-20pts--3rd-16pts--4th-14pts--5th-12pts--6th-10pts--7th-9pts--8th-8--9th-6pts--10th-5pts--11th-4pts--12th-3pts-13th-2pts--14th-1pt. The season will be 12 races.

    I will keep an updated leaderboard in this thread.

    Put your psn below if you want to join.

    1st race this Sunday 9pm start, qualifying 8.30. 10 laps around Grand Valley Speedway. Max bhp is 300 and you can use cars from your garage.

    Can you recommend a good car for this race, I have a fear of everyone else just shooting off ahead leaving me choking on their dust.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,397 ✭✭✭Paparazzo

    I was the same. Bought 2 cars to have a go with cos most stuff in my garage is too powerful. Then copped on I could have used one I already own if I removed some of the mods. :(

    Different cars suit different people, I used the practice feature to see what suits me. At the moment its a Honda nsx. I got the type r new from the Honda dealer and modded it to 299 bhp.

    What's the story with traction control and abs when online?

    On a side note, I saw a daihatsu midget on baggot street yesterday. Had a ferrari badge on it.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 734 ✭✭✭twinsen
