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!

Just in case you don't follow the American Le Mans Series, Tommy Milner is the driver of one of the CR.7 Corvettes GTLM and has been very instrumental in the testing of PCars 2.

Here are the sprint race hotspots. Anyone with over 4 is to be investigated. Ben should have the race results for you guys to make an appropriate decision

 

[EpilepticToast]

yeah a pro/am split by volunteer sounds pretty fair if the numbers get enough for 2+ lobbies

 

[Colin Pappas]

Is anyone getting on tonight for some testing or just general game chat conversations?

Interesting posts there Mike.. seems like a fair bit of confusion with regard to the tyres again

No the limit was 6. I’m not budging on that. See post below

Lance the limit was 6 but with hotspots being re-implemented last minute due to broken penalty systems i altered the system for track limits for S6 and had instructed the stewards before hand as they have told you i had forgot myself to update the thread before the race which i have done and apoligised for. And as instructed by the stewards please dont post here again unless its regarding a incident from the Race. Thanks.

 

[Michael Watts]

I got it from there.. AbeWoz was the original poster.

 

[Jamief430]

I have a video and short explanation to the myself and oz incident. As shown in the video I made the move between turn 2 and 3. As I exited 3 I checked my mirrors (as I race in cockpit) and I was ahead so I proceeded with my turn 4 line. I didn't even feel the hit. I didn't think anyone would have fought back to gain a position their as it's nearly impossible to get 2 cars around that corner. (One is hard enough). As the whole video shows firstly my point then the proof I had track position, finally it shows oz taking my exact line the lap after. I hope this is enough evedence. This is my only reply thankyou

Since I can't argue in the stewards thread, it will continue here.

I understand that you changed it, but the drivers have to be briefed on the change before that round. Otherwise, the change takes effect in the next round. This is like if the FIA did a rule change right before a F1 race and didn't include it in the drivers briefing before the event. Second, what is an event? Is that both rounds or each round by itself?

The point of the hotspots is to discourage cutting/extending... by extending the amount allowed, you are actually encouraging people to abuse track limits... this needs to be reversed!

The first hotspot was a complete joke since you added the extra curbing... everyone said that corner pushes you wide... therefore you need to carry less speed into that corner to keep it on circuit. That corner was designed that way for a reason.

With the amount of time most of you spend practicing, there is absolutely no reason why you guys can't keep it on the track.... seriously... i practice about 10 times less than you guys and manage to keep it on the track.

Steward's Decision

1st Incident involving @SkaankyPuppy and @Jamief430
@SkaankyPuppy receives a 5 second penalty for causing a minor collision.

2nd Incident feature race track limits:
Matt receives a 10 second time penalty and 5 penalty points for excessively abusing track limits.

3rd Incident involving @Jamief430 and @ozwheels
No action to be taken as this was deemed a racing incident.

4th Incident sprint race track limits:
@ozwheels and Jeremy receive 5 second time penalties.

As always you have 24 hours to appeal the decision as long as you provide new evidence to the stewards.

Notice to all drivers:
Drivers are reminded that going over the limit of allowable track limit excursions will result in both time penalties and penalty points in all future races. This is because we feel the number of extensions allowed is already generous. Thanks and good luck next race.
