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!

I was running pretty high DF and higher pressures typically break away even more quickly than what I was running. I've been all over this car for quite some time, and I've switched up my driving a bit for the things that just can't seem to be tuned out of it without sacrificing speed unfortunately. I love it, but by the end of the race I hate it lol.

Ummmm...

Smh...

Here you go stewards...

 

[LIAMATTHURSO]

Feature Q P8, R P7

Got an average start, but gained a place courtesy of Ben wiping out Adam. Benji overtook me into Copse, but I repassed him into Stowe. Then the race was boring, until the last 5-6 laps where I had a good battle with Andrew, first time we properly battled. Messed up my best chance to pass him.

Sprint Q P2 R P2

Started 2nd, messed up a lap that would've put me P1. Oh well. Anyway, I got a good start, passed Adam, and we went side by side in the first few corners. After that I was just trying to pressure Adam, but after I got half sideways on the last corner kerb, I just decided to bring it home, as I knew Nic would soon be past Andrew. Good overall. Most points I've got in 1 weekend surprisingly!

 

[Benjamin McC]

Ummmm...

Tsk tsk.. Smh...

Here you go stewards...

- clearly @Adel Elsayed is at fault here
- he ran wide, I passed him
- he tried to force his way back into the line I already and doesn't back out when it's his responsibility to do so
- he keeps his foot on the throttle when he had me sideways while I'm trying to brake
- we both rejoin the track with a massive cut which I was just a passenger of and had no control of my car
- we rejoin exactly as we were but he spins later on

- I out brake myself and accidentally hit @Anders Prehn
- I clearly back off and go on the brake twice to allow who ever was on my left to pass and 3 cars pass me except Prehn
- @Ben Milden clearly doesn't lose much from this
- Prehn & I spoke and he's ok as it was an accident and I made effort to slow and later apologieZed to him

- @Ben Milden with yet another Incident like in Catalunya deemed "racing incident" as he takes out my team mate @Adam Morris in the start and ruins my team race

- here goes @Adel Elsayed trying to take me out in the sprint race and doesn't back off really just keeps going...
- super malicious move causing me damage


http://youtu.be/g_ftwbXd61s

- here goes @Ben Milden pushing @Andrew Holmes into turn 3 making him half spin
- he doesn't wait To give him back the position
- then he tries to block @Gareth Williams and turns into him pushing him off the track

Just to let everyone know, I'm the #7 Bentley and Gazza is the #8 Bentley.

Surprised I was able to make that move going into copse, good spacily awareness from both of us

the McLaren is signifigantly lighter than the both the Bentley and the Merc. We...Well the Bentley is capable of fast laps, and even the SLS, due to more power. After 15-20 laps the tires are worn down and those heavy bitches are sliding all over the place. So I know what you mean. I half spun into the barrier 3 times in the same spot on 3 consecutive laps in turn 12 at Spa, and this was in the dry. But to be honest, I spent a ridiculous amount of time in the Z4 and was improving my lap times every time I went back to a track because of something I learned at the last track. I only hope I can get there quicker in the Merc. Its a good looking car, so I guess I'll just lose in style.

I don't think the Mclaren has as much power as the other GT3 cars though.
Like I said in the lobby, in my opinion, all the cars have their strengths and weaknesses but, on balance, they are all similar in performance to meet GT3 homologation standards.

Feature
Q - 4th
R - 1st

Not the best start today as my wheel spazzed out and couldn't qualify normally, had to settle for p4 which pole would have been a breeze in normal circumstances as I've done a 1:58.1 in practice.
Had a good start, just tried to get use to my wheel behaving like crap, finally dialed in after a few mins in the Mercedes sandwich yet again, so alone in this battle against both of them. Went on the attack to pass Adel when he made a mistake, he wouldn't back out of the space he lost and we both went off with him spinning himself in the end. Maintained comfortable lead Infront Ben, was very easy to do so, then in the last stint team radio called in with the famous "Nic we need u to push hard, don't ask any questions" in anticipation of a protest so I obeyed orders and opened the gap from 3 seconds to 10 seconds just in case. Another win, not happy about losing pole streak but it happens, it's racing #rockstar

Sprint
R - 3rd

Some contact wih Prehn in opening lap, felt badly about it and was hesitant for a bit but pushed on afterwards, eventually had a nice battle with Lance n Gaz N watching Ben and Andrew unfold for me to drive brilliantly in end to pip 3rd after being In back of race. Solid day really. Currently Being protested but not bothered really, didn't do anything wrong or intentional and well, I'm leading by s big margin so that's expected. #bringit

 

[Dalai toma]

I'm already practicing and just hit my fastest lap ever at hock and I can't wait for Matt to beat it by a second and a half gonna be so sweet ...

 

[Dominic Ollivierre]

Adel driving Recklessly in the subsequent sprint race

Ben running my team mate's race cause us to lose valuable team points

Ben accidentally T-boning Andrew but fails to wait on him and recklessly collides with Benjamin

 

[Michael Watts]

What are you running Tom?

 

[Marksest112]

Donington Spa and Hockenhiem are my tree favourite circuits haha!

 

[AbeWoz]

I just did a couple laps in the vette. First time really running hock in this game. Best was a 1:40.xx

 

[Dalai toma]

Don't have the exact time but it was probably around a 137:8 which is only about a second off the world record so Matt should have it in about a week

 

[Marksest112]

I will try.

I agree Mike, and it is plenty capable, I think the weight is really what kills it for me. Hell, I think the '70 Challenger I turned race car when I was a teenager weighs less lol. Also, my most used GT3 car has got to be the Z4, and no I don't use the stability management crutch, before this league I never even tried any of the assists in the game, had them all turned off lol.

 

[Ben Milden]

- here goes @Adel Elsayed trying to take me out in the sprint race after our feature race incident and doesn't back off really just keeps going trying to fight me for the position as he pushes me off...
- super malicious move causing me damage

- @Ben Milden with yet another Incident of contact on the start of a race, like in Catalunya which was eventually deemed a "racing incident", exactly the same contact and the other driver is taken out
- here he goes taking out my team mate @Adam Morris in the start and ruins my team race
- This is the 3rd time Ben has had an incident like this and never penalized for it, he clearly doesn't wait
- to add to this, Ben uses the view that is outside of the car so he can clearly see the surroundings and has absolutely no reason to turn into my team mate
- this is soooooo ridiculous

- here goes @Ben Milden T-boning @Andrew Holmes into turn 3 making him half spin
- he doesn't wait To give him back the position
- then he tries to block @Gareth Williams and turns into him pushing him off the track

@Adam Morris was clear to us before the race that only the drivers involved may post the footage of any incidents so you can only post video of incidents your actually involved with. Incidentally the contact with Andrew was actually caused by you running me onto the grass so if you would like to be reported for that then cool

 

[Adel Elsayed]

Ummmm...

Smh...

Here you go stewards...

- clearly @Adel Elsayed is at fault here
- he ran wide, I clearly pass him
- he tries to force his way back into the line I already take and doesn't back out when it's his responsibility to do so
- we touch on exit then we continue straight and he hits my rear left and clearly he keeps his foot on the throttle Pushing me me sideways
-I'm not in control at this point and have no idea where I am
- we both rejoin the track with apparently a massive cut which I was just a passenger of and had no control of my car, trying to brake to come out of it
- we rejoin exactly as we were coming out of stowe but he spins on his own and I'm trying to find my bearings, hard at that point to do calculations of how much I gained on @Ben Milden but certainly not an intentional cut as u can clearly see

From my live stream

- I out brake myself and accidentally hit @Anders Prehn
- I clearly back off and go on the brake twice to allow who ever was on my left to pass and 3 cars pass me except Prehn
- @Ben Milden clearly doesn't lose much from this
- Prehn & I spoke and he's ok as it was an accident and I made effort to slow and later apologieZed to him

What sort it of fudging racing did you see that a guy backs out on the god damn straight you don't even try at this point anymore. I can't disappear sorry

The incident in the sprint race I just wanted to know what it feels like to be u... I will accept responsibility for that. Wasn't malicious

 

[Ben Milden]

I will post my response to the incidents above later today thanks
