PondNewt 271 Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Is the track for round 11 a slightly altered version of the slides of march track from a while back? It seems really familiar. Not a complaint just curious? Link to post Share on other sites
doubleg213 3,842 Posted September 9, 2017 Author Share Posted September 9, 2017 I had the two tracks for a while. The Slides of March uses the paths between the barracks as well, it's pretty much the same but this one has less turns and avoids the narrower paths. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

doubleg213 3,842 Posted September 27, 2017 Author Share Posted September 27, 2017 (edited) Bit late but here we go. I'm still trying to iron out the kinks in my schedule with being back at college and running a business so we may be a little sketchy at times till I sort myself out. Individual results now, I'll do Crew vs Crew once I get back from the farm later and hopefully new round up tonight, if not it will be tomorrow. Short on entries this month which I was a little surprised at as I really expected the Escort to be a car that everyone would have jumped on to very quickly. The spread of lap times was a little more varied than I expected as well. Mr Crawfords run of dominance came to a crashing end as he only managed 5th place, welcome back to the world of the ordinaries Ally. Congratulations to Clydicality with his first ever win with the one stand out lap time miles ahead of everyone else with myself and Verstappen close together for 2nd and 3rd sport respectively. I'll not upload a table for the winter championship just yet as it's self explanatory given that this is the first round. Overall tables are updated and you can find the link for that in the relevant post on page 1. The table makes alarming reading as I was really expecting to see Ally reel me in again and pass me by the end of the year. But as it stands we are in the situation where I have a 10 point lead with 4 rounds to go, I suppose the plus point is that it gives hope to the other average drivers, get the odd podium place and be consistently in the top 10 and your mediocrity could pay off as well. http://doublegmotorsport.com/gta/tt/2017/rd11results.pdf Edited October 1, 2017 by doubleg213 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Verstappen 9,620 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Third? I wasn't expecting that position after the amount of practice I put in. Guess Experience from nodo Pc race around the base and the previous round we did here helped. Retinue was a join to drive on this track I gotta say and I felt fast the few laps I did. guess it was fast too. Congratulations on the round win Clydicality! 2 Link to post Share on other sites
doubleg213 3,842 Posted October 1, 2017 Author Share Posted October 1, 2017 (edited) Currently doing testing on what I intend to run this round. Flipped the order slightly so this will be the Rallycross round, then Futo autotest next, then Schafter V12 and Stinger to finish on more traditional fast tracks once this fiddly stuff is out the way. Obviously we're near a week late on starting so was thinking I may extend the deadline of this one once it's posted rather than . It would mean that the last round finishes on Christmas eve. Which could be a good or a bad thing depending on how you look at it, so if people prefer we could stick with this just being a two week round? Still ironing out the kinks in my schedule between work and college and sorting out uni applications and such like so it's a bit messy at the moment getting stuff sorted.

doubleg213 3,842 Posted October 1, 2017 Author Share Posted October 1, 2017 (edited) Here you to then, details for round 12. Deadline is midnight 22nd October and the download link etc. is on page 1. Car list is based on vehicles which have some kind of rally or Off Road pedigree, although there are a few stretches like the Ubermachts and Schafters as both BMW and Merc rallied in a limited capacity with earlier versions of similar models. Only the listed cars are allowed: Benefactor Schafter (All variants) Benefactor Stirling GT BF Bifta BF Injection Brickade Dune Coil Brawler Dewbauchee Rapid GT Classic Karin Futo Karin Kuruma Karin Sultan Karin Sultan RS Lampadati Tropos Rallye Obey Omis Pfister Comet Pfister Comet Retro Ubermacht Sentinel XS Ubermacht Zion Vapid Blade Vapid Desert Raid Vapid Dominator (All variants) Vapid Retinue Vapid Trophy Truck Vulcar Warrener Weeny Issi The track is a little rough and ready, mainly because unless R* give us rain back in all race modes I want to hold some tracks back for that. Hence the old school floating platforms etc. and lots of tyre barriers etc. The main straight has the barriers chiefly to prevent run ups for Time Trial purposes. We should hopefully have a good mix (I need to say that at least 4 or 5 time each year just to be proved wrong) in some tight corners and a couple of long straights. Hopefully the long straights give us some non Kuruma car options and the very bumpy gravel section give the likes of the Trophy Truck and Desert Raid a chance. So with all that said, I look forward to you all using your Kurumas. Edited October 5, 2017 by doubleg213 2 Link to post Share on other sites
lann3fors 1,585 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Interesting selection of cars! 1 Link to post Share on other sites
doubleg213 3,842 Posted October 1, 2017 Author Share Posted October 1, 2017 (edited) Interesting selection of cars! There are a number of spurious cars that will be no use whatsoever, but everything there was a rally car, desert raid or Baja type vehicle or in some cases like the Mustang (Dominator) and Falcon (Blade) used in rallies when they really had no business being there. The Rapid GT I went with on the basis that it has more than a touch of classic Mustang to its looks. Edited October 1, 2017 by doubleg213 1 Link to post Share on other sites
