Yo,

Dude has GRID now too ... so we're getting some reasonable numbers ... Chitty, Toadly, Picklehead & Indent, if you're reading this feel free to join in.

Whoopass-Racing Championships come in two flavors, GP and TC. GP is more formal, euro-style, TC is more loose, kinda crazy no rules style.
Generally held on Wednesday nights. For those unfamiliar, our mini-league website is at http://www.whoopass-racing.com ...


My idea for GP is to do an imitation GRID World thing, but moving up classes as we go. 2 races each in GT2, GT1, LMP2, LMP1.

My idea for TC is to do alternating rounds of Demolition Derby, Drift Race, Destruction Derby, Drift Freestyle. (not necessarily in that order). To clarify, Deomlition derby is when you race but with ramming ... destruction derby is when you don't even race you just smash each other up and the last man standing is the winner (points would still be awarded in the order you total your car).

what does everyone think?

[toadly]

im game except for the drifting thing, not into drifting. we need to do a few rounds in a private server before i can give a formal decision. i will be on tonight


f1000's has to be included or i will mushroom stamp your forehead!!!!!1

[rip|buzinator]

ok, well, how about F1000, F3, GT1, LMP1 as a 'career path' for the GP series?

I think we should try the drifting cuz we all know we suck at it, this would force us to develop a little bit.

[rip|mrkavanagh]

ok is drift actually a race or do we even see each other while racing?

[rip|buzinator]

it can be a race.

the freestyle is funny, there's no course to follow, everyone just goes wherever they want trying to drift past those poles to rack up point within a time limit. so it's just cars all over the place hoping to not hit each other. funny shit imo.

[rip|mrkavanagh]

ok

[rip|buzinator]

Another thing occurred to me ... regarding Destruction (or Demolition) Derbies ... we can use ANY class we want, $20Million LMP1 Audi's for example. Take expensive stuff and smash it all up ... at the bottom of Eau Rouge or something. lol.

ok, i'll try and get together a season proposal as far as cars and tracks.

[rip|mrkavanagh]

get ER done!

[rip|mrkavanagh]

looks like a plan to me

[rip|buzinator]

I just picked the drift ones from a list, i'll have to check out what kind of races they are, if they're solo time trials etc.

what do people think of the idea of making all the drifting full-contact? Obviously Dude will kill us all at straight-up drifting, so maybe we make it interesting?

[toadly]

As long as we all know the rules I don't see a problem with any style of racing
