PC2 Project Cars 2 Leagues (merged)

[Rob]

I know we are all excited for this release. What I don't know is how many people intend to a) play it on the xbox one and b) would like to join some sort of a formal league here at Race Department.

There are so many possibilities, I've had to calm myself down from getting lost in them. However, my main passion, IndyCar, will probably not be able to be run until the DLC with the ovals comes to the Xbox One.

That said, what sort of series would you like to see? Personally, ones that come to mind are Tudor United Sports Car Series, WEC, British Touring Car, and DTM. One of these could fill the gap for me until IndyCar is possible, but others may have better ideas.

Please indicate below if you are interested and what sort of times you are available and which series' you prefer. We could follow the actual schedule of many a series, due to the timing of the release. Personally, if they get the ovals out before IndyCar starts, I'll probably turn my focus there, but nothing would prevent running another alongside.

The anticipation is killing me!

USA here lol. And I can lap the Bently at a :29 range with full fuel, but I still need to tune the car since that was my Glen setup and I couldn't get comfortable with the car.

 

[Dalai toma]

The Benz is next on my list to test. So far I've tried Bentley but I don't think I can handle right drive in car and the ruff was to rear skiddish and the mclaren is what I've had the best luck with so far

 

[Michael Watts]

I used my Glen setup for Donington. If give it to you Tom but I think we have very different driving styles. I tend to like the safety of under steer for these long races. Not conducive for running fast laps, but I'd rather not be chasing the rear of the car around for 90 mins.

 

[Gazza123]

Here we go again lol

 

[Michael Watts]

I should be on tonight if anyone wants run some laps. I'm dropping off the wife and kids at the In-laws and racing all night. May even do a 6 hr race there.

 

[Michael Watts]

By the way.. if we ever get back down to 15 people I have a guy that is willing to drive a "Pace Car" for the event. May come in handy at Bathurst or a place with a high caution potential. Would allow the Leader to duck in and pit for tires, get out and catch the pace car maintaining a constant pace.

How would that work for lance for example? I don't wanna make him change if he doesn't want to

You know someone that would be willing to sit through an entire 90 + min. race just to be the pace car? I don't even know what to say to that.

 

[Michael Watts]

He's a real good guy, loves racing but he's 65 has arthritis in his hands and can't do manual shifting. Of course he hasn't committed to it completely yet, lol.

I think it truly would be a first in sim racing. A dedicated pace car driver. You truly would be a pioneer in the simulation world. think about how you could sell it. "The World Endurance Challenge League on the X Box One. We have a pace car driver."

 

[Jelani Patterson]

I think this is pure bullshit

 

[Peter Hooper]

I'm interested in how this would work though... what does ho do for the rest of the race.... does the game not throw any inactive car out after a period of time?

Drive around in the grass.....

 

[2pfspiff]

Not sure, I don't think he would be able to park in the pits because the game takes over while in the pits unless he doesn't choose a strategy until a cation is called. Not sure how it would work. Some tracks have spots where he could park and move the car back and forth every so often so the game thinks he is racing, but i don't think every track has a spot like that. I am probably wrong as usual though. I really do think that it would be cool to have a live pace car.

 

[2pfspiff]

Drive around in the grass.....

Sooner or later on most tracks he is going to get close to the track and the race line. Some tracks he may even need to cross to get to the other side. I'm sure there is a joke in that last sentence somewhere.

You could drive your favourite car so lance could drive mclaren if he wishes

Bullshit is signing up to a league and doing one race but thanks for your input

 

[EpilepticToast]

true, there will likely be cautions on the hill section, very tight there. Damage will give everyone a few problems running that many consecutive laps here so it'd be interesting.
haha don't worry about me until I can stop the Bentley from spinning on old tires, tuning needs a rethink as AC mentioned.
