CIRCUS: Compacts
On March 11th we will race in compact cars around San Andreas. Six races in six different cars - where you decide for yourself when you use which car. Each race will take about 20 minutes (plus gridding procedure etc.), so it is also an endurance event of some kind. And tactics will play a major role by choosing the right car on the right track!
Date: Sunday, March 11th 2018, 19:00 UTC – ca. 21:45 UTC (there will be no daily Staggered Start playlist on that day, because I
Pre-race lobby: 18:45 (come as clownish as you can, and bring a compact car with a flamboyant color scheme, honking around with its clown horn.)
Race lobby: 19:00
1st race start: 19:05
Event end: ca. 21:45
Tracks:
🤡 SCRZ Poseidon 13 laps / Morning / Clear
🤡 ADM Grapeseed West Loop 21 laps / Current time / Clear
🤡 Neptune's Arc 9 laps / Night / Clear
🤡 Impotent Race 18 laps / Noon / Rain
🤡 Brioso Club 21 laps / Noon / Clear
🤡 Broiler Bites 18 laps / Current time / Clear
(There is also a playlist on SocialClub to add all six tracks at once.)
Participants really really should own all these cars:
Blista, Issi, Panto, Prairie, Rhapsody
(but you can borrow a car from another driver, if there is one in your current car. If not, you'll have to drive it stock.)
In the spirit of beta1hit 's event I don't know my enemies, each participant needs to write me a private message stating which car they want to drive in which race. Every car must be driven once by each driver.
The cars to race with are: Blista, Issi, Panto, Prairie, Rhapsody and a STOCK Brioso. Each driver should really really own (see above) the first five cars mentioned, and the Brioso must be driven stock. (To enforce the Brioso-stockyness, I will dictate the color of the briosos just before each race in the racing lobby)
Sign-up procedure:
- Write a post below why you want to attend this clowny event.
- Send a private message to AbeCede until race day March 11th, 13:00 UTC with the information which car you'll drive in which race. (Use the text at the bottom of this post as a template if you like).
- Enjoy the races!
Detailed rules and regulations:
- Starting grid will be randomized in a fair way using FriendlyBaron's random grid creator.
- There is no need to do a pit stop
- You are expected to have 60fps max
- Your own cars can have any upgrades, any wheels, anything whatever.
- During the race you are allowed to use shortcuts, curb boosting, mid drive speed boosting and brake boosting. But "change to single player brake cheat" and "wiggleboosting" is forbidden.
- Don't endanger others.
- Blue flags are in effect, which means if a car is about to lap you, you need to give room. If you ARE the fast guy who laps someone, tell them in teamspeak or at least honk twice or thrice. DON'T honk for any other reason.
- Otherwise all NoDo Racing Guidelines apply.
Scoring system
There will not be any "fastest laptime bonus". Finish positions get these points (in order from fastest to slowest):
50, 46, 43, 40, 37, 34, 31, 28, 25, 22, 20, 18, 16, 14, 12, 10, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
So the event will support 23 drivers. (Why 23? Because Rockstar and also Illuminati)
The winner of the event will be given the honorary title "Compact Clown" henceforth.
