Last 2012 Series
Hi all only a few rounds into the GT3 series but want to get a start on the last series to round out the year... This season will be planned as an 8 round series from the 18/10 - 13/12.
A mod I have been playing around with has been the "V8 Superstars" Mod and follows an Italian series in real life http://www.superstars.it/, the series has been covered through different game platforms but found this through SimDriveItalia.
http://ttrracing.com/admin/mods/V8%20Superstar's%20Series.zip
There is a server up with a couple of tracks (thanks to benny) and more can be added, I would love some feedback on your thoughts on the mod if it seems to be a winner I may but up a vote for tracks but at this stage looking at an American themed series, there is a really good selection of great track that would make for a great series, Thursdays I wont to make into a night people come a try something New, this doesn't always work but you don't know till you have tried
Anyways interested to here peoples thought

I saw this server up and wondered where the thread was!
I've watched a few of these superstars races a year or 2 back, quite interesting.

Re: Last 2012 Series
Server wise each has there own so they don't effect each other that way. Tuesday and thursday have been building there own groups. I do agree to a point that we don't have a lot of people practicing during the week like we use to and if others are practicing it is more fun to jump on and practice yourself, but at the same time the nights have attracted new members that have then come and run our sunday and saturday racers.
Out of Tuesday we have a great group of guys coming from OR coming and running our saturday events now purely from one of the members running tuesday and going back and telling them all about our league.
The other advantage of the nights it gives people time to get up to speed that are new to sim racing.
I struggle to run during the week and If I have time I jump on for a run and I think others do the same. Where in the past I if I was free I would go run at other leagues with a bunch of guys I didn't know and is always hit and miss on what group of racers I would run against.

Re: Last 2012 Series
Benny, you have a great team behind you and different people run different nights. atm i do everything by myself and do three meetings a week.. That's time consuming especially using up to 4 different sims, although i am about to not worry about ARCA, not enough interest in nascar type cars in this country.. If it works and each series has a server to prac on and you have good staff managing different nights. multi nights should work. I probably should of pm'd this message but your doing a good job and hopefully everyone can see that

Re: Last 2012 Series
I'm very committed to making Thursday racing as successful as it can be in it's own rite and a this early stage it will be a little hit and miss at times and I understand that eventually we may get a group of guys that run on Tuesdays & Thursdays that spill over to Sat/Sun
It will take some time I know but I know plenty of leagues that only run on weekday nights, I tend to agree to some degree though shano as numbers thin out the more nights that are on offer and that can be an issue from time to time but when I first started racing at SRA a few years ago they only got 10-12 on a Monday or Thursday now they are getting 20-25 each night it has taken time to build it but as they say build it and they will come
I'm also more than willing to here peoples thoughts and Idea's and as a community we should be able to openly discuss things like this and Mod/Track & Series Idea's
What I'm trying to build is another option for TTR and hopefully with a bit of hard work and some enthusiasm should be pretty good down the track. I think no matter what night you race it's always tuff to make every round and if we all could race every night we would but most of us cant so we pick and choose what nights we can based on what mods are running if there is something in particular that is too your liking then you will be more inclined to make an effort, What runs on Thursdays is not for everyone's liking and thats completely understandable but then again it maybe for others.
I would love to keep running with Thursdays as is but am happy to do the best thing for TTR as well.
Cheers Sean.

Re: Last 2012 Series
My 2 NZ Pesos worth.
1. I like the variety of mods and nights to race... if we run 4 different mods then there is usually something that will interest someone and a night that suits better. You are never going to please everyone and some you won't please at all.
2. If the TCL regulars need a practice night, then have one (Monday, Wednesday and Friday are free) A Server or practice server is usually up.
And this really applies to any series running, not just TCL. Get on the forums and organise a gathering for pre race practice if you feel the need.
3. A lot of thought, discussion and testing goes into the different mods we run and are not just picked at random by the person running the series.
Discussion like this is GOOD... we want to hear what you think and want but again we can't please everyone. (but we try)

Re: Last 2012 Series
Ok seems to be not a lot of feedback on this mod & numbers have dropped right off with the GT3 Mod.
My thoughts now are with an AE86 series ?
will there be some interest to run this series ?
Any Suggestions ?
It's really hard to have a good nights racing with 5 cars and only 3 that finish LOL
Throwing it out in the wind for people to comment on this.
cheers

Dano Had a AE86 Series earlier this year and although we didn't get many numbers they are a great fun car to drive. I really love the mod and am all for it

Re: Last 2012 Series
Yeah utes are ok.. still the issue with the hit box being out of whack in the front (you hit someone when you are 2-3 metres away) and while the Xfactor updated version fixed some issues , this was not one of them...
I like the V8 Superstars mod but if it is not a go on Thursdays, I wouldn't mind a fun run with it on a Saturday (next year)
How many have actually given the V8 Superstars mod a go????

Re: Last 2012 Series
I really liked the Superstars mod too but might be better suited to Sat, Would love to see a few guys on track for that one...
NAGT Sounds good too but it was run not that long ago happy to run it again, What were numbers like ?
At the end of the day really want to give Thursdays a really good go but need the feedback from everyone to try and make it better but 5 cars really does not warrant a Race
