Hey guys, I'm back with another 'best-to-worst' endurance race, this time using Sports cars. For those unaware of the concept, it means that there will be a GT1 and GT2 field and the quickest GT1 car will be in a team with the slowest GT2 car and the second quickest with the second slowest etc. A list of cars in each team will be posted below. As with the previous event, the thinking behind this type of event is that the team championship is just as important as the individual standings, with slower cars in both GTs able to gain their team valuable points by gaining just one or two positions.
Date/time:
I'm negotiable on the date but right now I'm planning to do this on Sunday, April 26th with the lobby invites being sent at 6pm UK time (5pm UTC) and the race to begin at 6:30pm UK time (5:30pm UTC)
Details:
This will be a one hour endurance race with 8 drivers in GT1 and 8 drivers in GT2.
Signup:
Have a look at the list below and sign up specifying which team you are signing up for and which car you would like in that team.
Cars:
We will be using the top 16 sports cars in this race, with three exceptions. The Khamelion will not be used for obvious reasons and the Rapid GT and Furore GT are also excluded to make way for the Fusilade and Kuruma because the Fusilade is easily found in free roam and the Kuruma is much cheaper than the other two options.
Starting grid:
Rather than delay the race by doing a qualifying session, I've decided to do this in quite a unique way. Basically, in the weeks leading up to the event, I want everyone to practice on the track and post pictures on this thread of their best lap times. You can post as many pictures as you want as you beat your previous best and it goes without saying, only laps in the car you will be using in the event count. The grid will see all GT1 cars start ahead of the GT2 field in the order of their qualifying laps. Anyone who doesn't post a picture of a qualifying lap will be starting according to the speed of their car according to Broughy's testing lists with slower cars further back. I will throw a sticky bomb to start GT1 and the GT2 field will start 10 seconds later, to prevent major incidents at the first corner.
Points:
Unlike my first "best to worst" endurance race, points for this one will be equal between GT1 and GT2 so both GTs will get 8 points for first and 1 point for last. Anyone who DCs will be awared the smallest number of points with the first person to DC considered last and so on.
Track:
The track we will be using for this event is a track I designed specifically for endurance racing: Laps Of Lunar Loops
So, with all the details aside, here are the teams and which cars will be in each GT. As stated before, when you sign up please state which team you'd like to be in and which car, when both members have been assigned to a particular team, you are free to discuss and choose your team name, colours and sponsors.
