I'm interested, but it depends on the weekly time slot.

 

[Daniel Higgins]

Im interested for sure but will have to have another month or 2 practice before Im ready for you guys.

They have thought of almost everything these guys.

 

[James Yates]

Just an idea for a league. How about the Mustang, Corvette and Radical in a mixed class series with longish races? Wouldn't be too far off the ALMS anyway.

or the Riley

or the Riley

What the heck, why not all 4 of those cars or throw in the V8 too and make it 5...? Then create 2 man teams for each car. If you could get 40 cars you'd have 4 two man teams for each car.

Crazy idea, but I'm dreaming. ***ducks***

EDIT: Just thought about it and currently you need to own all the cars to race in a series like that. I have all the roads cars and tracks, but many don't. :-(

Just what I was thinking, ATM only have the 3 starting cars and Indycar but will buy 1 or 2 more as I progress anyway.

 

[Mark A Warmington]

Was thinking the same...

I might get the Stang if there really was that much interest in a league, but I don't know about buying the V8 as well. Perhaps I'll get one when I get my participation $$$ for S3 and another for S4 .

I would suggest any RD league just start with the default content: SRF or, as mad as it seems, just run the Advanced Legends on road courses.

That's probably not a bad idea for the first league. The Spec Racer Ford is a ton of fun and offers some variety in setups. It's free and the tracks used could be made up of many free tracks for newcomers.

Lime Rock
Mazda Laguna Seca
Summit Point Main
Summit Point Jefferson
Charlotte Roval

All 5 of these tracks are free and provide excellent Spec Racer Ford racing. Maybe even have the first league be a short 5 race season and then expand in season 2 with cars, tracks etc... Just a thought.

I own every road car and track, so I don't care, but having a "free" series might be a good way to include everyone. Of course that's assuming you like road courses. The oval guys might want their own league with the Legends. That's a fun car on road courses as well as ovals.

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

It will not be the spec racer ford for sure

 

[Daniel Higgins]

Solace? Fun little car (out of the 3 ive used so far)

 

[Bram Hengeveld]

Oh please not

The Solstice is like the train in Holland. Once I graduated a promised myself to never ever take the train again and so far I am keeping word. Solstice is the same thing. What a crap car

Would be nice if you could actually sell cars back to iRacing as a second hander !!

 

[Daniel Higgins]

Lol well I love my Solace and my Solace loves me so ner!

 

[Kevin Watts]

My free time is limited but I wouldn't mind being an occasional back-marker

 

[Glenn Petersen]

I think the free content is the way to go for the first time. Each car has a love/hate relationship with everyone, so what about a 6 race season with 2 races in each car? Spread the love around

I'm a fan of having the requirements be simple and inexpensive for the first RD league, so that sounds good for a first season. I hadn't thought of using all 3 Rookie cars... iRacing may have 4 Rookie cars shortly with the Street Stock coming out. And then 5 with the Mazda, but I think that's a bit farther out. The Street Stock should be very soon though...

I have all road cars and tracks, but I know it will be tough to get 100% agreement on cars and tracks, so just wondering if simple is better to start.

 

[Ries Notenboom]

Intrested yes !

 

[Marc Good]

I'd support the idea of using only free content for the first RD iRacing league.

Although there was a thread a while back where we gathered information on which member owned what content.. somewhat a compiled list. Guess it's burried in the old merged iRacing thread now. I think it would as well be a good idea to see what's owned the most here (we might start a fresh thread before setting up the league) and then build the format around this survey. Because I myself would love to run something else than stock content - the cars and tracks are great, but at least in terms of tracks I like some diversity.

hey, I would be interested. My name in iRacing: Dawid Kus'

It would be safe to pick something up to D class would it not? I think the majority of RD members are at least class 'D' or will be there pretty soon. Buying a car or track for an RD league would be used for racing in the official iRacing series anyway or be used in the very near future once the member advances to 'D' class which even a slow poke like me managed with relative ease. D class opens up some more fun options such as the Ford Mustang FR500S, the Skip Barber or Jetta TDI, choosing up to class D would also drop in some more fantastic tracks such as Brands Hatch or Watkins Glen.
