Gran Turismo Racing Series 2
 That's right everybody, it's time to begin the long awaited second season of The Official 10-Tenths Motorsport Gran Turismo Racing Series! Before we begin the proceedings, let's half a small recap of Season 1. The Gran Turismo Racing Series started with a small amount of competitors racing around the daunting Nurburgring. From there the series expanded to include 12 players, racing around 15 different tracks, ending at the challenging El Capitan. It was trevisio who ended up on the top step of the podium, and this year he will be the man everyone is chasing. GRAN TURISMO RACING SERIES RULES 1. CARS Players may choose from any of the following cars to compete in. You may, however, change cars during the season if you wish. The list of eligible cars are:
2. RACES The following rules will apply during all races:
3. POINTS AND CHAMPIONSHIP The points system for the GTRS will be as follows:
As well as the Points Championship, the Time Stoppers Championship returns in Season 2. However, the overall winner of the GTRs will be decided on the player with the most points, not an average of the two championships. 4. ENTERING / SENDING IN TIMES Season 2 of the GTRS will begin on Tuesday, June 5. On this date the entire calender will be revealed. Entries will be open from now until that time. To enter, simply post in this thread your name, team name and initial car choice. If you wish you may also PM me these details. An example of your entry form would be this: Chatters Chatters Motorsport Subaru Impreza Rally Car '99 Once each round begins on Tuesday, you will have until the following Monday to PM your time for the race. Times sent in late will be penalised. When you PM me your time, please include the following information:
So, an example would be this: Chatters Ford Escort Rally Car '98 El Capitan 13:45:654 Or something like that.  So folks, those are the rules! Please be warned however that they may be changed at any time, in which case I will PM Spudgun and Pirenzo and let them know that this post needs to be changed accordingly. So, good luck, happy racing, and get entering!

Will this be on tracks where the cars do not hit the rev limiter, or however you want to put it? Cos on long straights that will get a little annoying...

The team is planning to use the Hyundai Accent WRC for the full season as they already have some experience running this car. Good luck to all competitors - bring it on!

I fired up the PS2 for the first time in ages last night and put in a few laps (only about half an hours worth). It did bring up a question though - we're allowed to use soft, medium or hard tyres - can we mix these? (eg. Soft on the front / hard on the back). |

Certainly can Bert!
So, does everyone like this series' set of rules? A bit more flexibility, especially in tyre choice, which was what everyone was crying out for! |

Rules look great to me. The tyre choice will be an interesting variable and nice that there's a very wide car choice, although that might keep me tied to my PS2 when it gets unpacked (moving house at the mo) for a couple of weeks

Totaled Motorsports hits the Track
_________________________________________________________________
TMS has hit the track with the new Lancia Delta HF intergrale at El Capitan, the teams test track and a track that Nickyf1 is very familiar with. _________________________________ El Capitan TMS team test -- Best Time ________ 1'49.227 (no TCS/ASM, 300kp/h top speed, Medium Compound tires) 4 Seconds quicker than the first flying lap with the TCS on, alot of speed in this car, but im not sure about the other cars.... So, has anyone topped this time or would like to top it? |

Trevisio
Momentum Motorsport Subaru Impreza Rally Car '03 I tested a few cars on medium tyres. It was very close between the fastest 2 (which were fastest by some considerable margin), but I found the Impreza 03 more fun/less understeery. |
