PC2 Project Cars 2 Leagues (merged)

Rob · Feb 11, 2015

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’m glad I’m not you guys right now. The diff physics have changed a good bit and the tires cool down very quickly now. Which means the hards are at least a second slower at Spa with y’alls cold track temperature and the softs are still overheating in sector 2. That means the gap between the hards and softs working temperature range is fairly large now and a medium is desperately needed. Good luck.

Due to the new patch the Nissan GT-R GT3 has proven to be basically undriveable. Therefore, all drivers currently in the GT-R are allowed to make a one-time car change. So choose wisely.
As a penalty, those drivers are not allowed to qualify for the remainder of the season.

It’s the diff changes, every car is like that now. Turn down the preload at the very least and you’ll be fine.

ozwheels · Apr 12, 2018

You guys need to decrease the preload or use fewer clutches. Just play around with it and you’ll be fine after a few laps.

This patch has broken the Ferrari, from hitting high 17's on Saturday to struggling to hit 19's is really mystifying, last night was not fun at all.

That's funny, as I found going the other way helped

This is the Season 7 Stewarding Thread where you can post videos of any incidents you may occur during a race event.

Season 7 Stewards

. @Adel Elsayed
. @Thomas While

S7 Stewarding Thread Rules

You are not allowed to post any incidents in this thread until 09:00am on Friday following the race, Any appeals should be made by 23:59 Saturday evening. Any drivers that disregard this rules could be penalized and have their reports removed.

This Thread is only for incidents during races so you post what you need to and follow the format below after that no discussions are to take place in the stewards threads, any drivers that disregard this rule could be penalized.

APPEALS

If your not happy with the outcome of a stewards enquiry you may APPEAL the result but please note you have 24hrs after the original verdict to post your appeal below and must provide further footage and/or evidence

S7 Stewards enquiry format.
Please use this template when making an enquiry. You MUST have video evidence of your incidents your personal point of view is preferred but if using a race replay please use the chase cam, other view points can be unreliable.

Time period of the video to be observed: (give range from start to finish)
Drivers involved
A brief description of your side of the incident including time lost.

Also the stewards will now have a deadline for each event to get the decision's out by Sunday so the points can be updated quicker.

Penalty system

The stewards have a variety of penalties that may be applied to punish drivers who break the racing rules, depending on the severity of the violation. The available penalties are sorted below, in order of severity. Breaking a rule also leads to penalty points being added to your name - see further down for more details.

(Note that penalties may be added together in the event of multiple violations in a race, which could result in total time penalties of a higher number than what is suggested below)

● 5-second time penalty
● 10-second time penalty
● 20-second time penalty
● 30-second time penalty
● Qualifying ban for the next race (may also be applied in place of a time penalty if the driver did not finish the race)
● Disqualification from the race
● One-race ban
● Multiple-race ban
● Permanent removal from the league

Any penalties will be aimed at the person who has done wrong - we cannot compensate anyone else as a result of someone's actions. All penalties are discussed by the Stewards Panel before being issued and the driver will always be informed of the outcome. The Stewards Panel is completely neutral and will not include anyone who may be affected by the incident in question.

Penalty points system
The penalty points system is a way of keeping track of a driver's record of breaking the rules of clean racing, and to more severely punish repeat offenders. Penalty points will be applied alongside normal race penalties, as per the list below.

● 5 points - Driving dangerously or un-sportingly
● 5 points - Causing a minor avoidable collision
● 10 points - Causing a moderate avoidable collision
● 15 points - Causing a major avoidable collision
● 5 points - Failing to wait for the affected driver after causing a collision (in addition to one of the above)
● 5-15 points - Excessively abusing the track limits (depending upon severity)
● 50 points - Deliberately crashing into another driver

If you accumulate 25 points, you will be awarded a qualifying ban.

If you accumulate 40 points, you will be awarded a one-race ban.

If you accumulate 50 points, your league position will be put under review, with the likely outcome of being removed from the league.

Penalty points will usually be reset ahead of a new season.

Please note rage quitting will be punished with a qualifying ban for the next race. If you retire from the race you are expected to remain in the lobby until the race is over and AFTER the race replay has been saved. (You may be asked for proof in the event of a disconnection so pls take a screen shot of your disconnect notification)

In the case of the wheel glitch in qualifying please do not leave the race lobby until you have tried to disconnect the wheel and reconnect it to the ps4. This should solve the problem without having to leave and rejoin.

Yea I don’t have a great answer right now. Reducing preload helped in the M6 but other cars are still all over the place. It’s going to take some time to figure everything out.
