Series Discussions

The time is here Guys

Everything is now in place for this event. All you have to do now is sign up.

On a scale of 1 - 10, How excited are you about this event ?

My answer would be a 10.

Get signed up guys.

Hello guys.

I need an advertisement for Forza Motorsports forums to advertise CCRO and the DTM series.
I am willing to pay 5 million CR for the advert i post on FM.net

Please post any suggestions to me on the forum in a private message and see if we can get us some new members:)

Before anything else, I just want to say bravo to Dalton. It's amazing the amount of time, effort and detail that you put into this stuff just so we can have a great time racing while really giving very little to you in return. So thanks, man!

I can't say I follow the DTM series the way I follow the ALMS. I really know next to nothing about DTM if i'm being honest. Although, when I read the series calendar and saw that our first race won't be taking place for just over 1 month, I was quite disappointed...so I guess that must mean my excitement level would have to be an 8 or so.

I like the pit stop format for this series. Two stops, but the window does allow us to have our own pit strategy to some extent. It will make things very interesting, thats for sure.

I'm sad to see the traditional qualification sessions scrapped, but I suppose if so few were actually qualifying, it was a waste of your time to set up a room twice a week even before the race.

The prize money sure will make it a very competitive series as it gets near the end of the calendar, and the bonus (All 16 CCRO DTM paints) for making all six races is a very nice touch.

See you guys on the track!

P.S. Yes, I went with the Playboy car...and yes, it is because there is still a part of me that is 14 years old.

I'm pretty excited about this event, I'd say an 8 or a 9

Though I prefer racing the lower class cars this will be my first time properly racing the DTM cars, so I'm really looking forward to it! This should be a good series, as long as we have plenty of us regularly turning up!


I'm going to apologise in advance for hitting anyone, Jacko experienced my inexperience in these cars yesterday(sorry Jack!).


Also, as Mr 8ONDE said, thanks Andy for putting so much time into the cars and sorting everything out for us!

The qualifying was ignored as there is no incentive to do it, in the first BTCC series didn't we get points for qualifying? Maybe that could be an incentive to do it in later series!

I'm happy for there to be money as long as people don't start bending the rules to try and get in the top 3, I'd hate to see something like that happen to us.

I'll be looking for my first proper win this series, though I doubt I'll be quick enough in these cars!

I'm going with a very strong 9 on this one. I've been waiting for some time now to run in an R-class series and am elated about it! I say a strong 9 because I really do enjoy running qualifying sessions and am sad to see it go. I understand why it's been omitted but still sad none the less. Qualifying is an exciting time for me, I like the competition and it's nice to see where we rank from track to track, it also makes the whole event seem more realistic. Don't get me wrong though...seriously excited to get this event going and that's where the strong 9 comes in.

Of course I'd also like to acknowledge Dalton once again on the fine work done and the great efforts that he puts forth to make this all possible...(a little ego stroke for ya there pal... )...lol
Anyways, all kidding aside serious tks Andy.

Lanky, you better be sorry you little punk, you hit me like 4 times in 2 sessions!!
Haha...jokes bud, its all good. I know you well enough to know that you are one of the cleanest drivers I've had the pleasure to run with and a public apology is welcomed and appreciated but not necessary. You're a good driver and I fully realize it's accidental. No worries!

Really looking forward to this one guys, let's get signed up and show some dedication to the event and take part until the end...no matter what happens on the track in terms of finishes and points lets complete the series with a strong showing from start to finish!

See ya all on the track....good luck!

Thank you guys for the comments.

I just mainly wanted to say i take every comment seriously i would like to offer a solution to the qualifying sessions.

If everyone post a time that is most convenient for them to run a qualifying session on wednesdays and fridays.

That way if we get alot of people can do roughly the same time we can arrange for admin to be online.

Also if i do bring back qualifying, everyone who does attend and qualify will receive 2 points towards the driver standings.

Please fill out this form to help us try and sort something out.
Wednesday and Friday only. Please Post in U.K Time Zone

Day: Friday
Time 8PM

I am flexible though.

Day : Friday but Flexible
Time : 8pm UK time works out to be 4am my time so I'm going to say 4pm UK time...lol
Maybe we could do the same as before as well where as if an admin is online and they dont mind running a qualifying session we can do them when we have time if we cant make the scheduled time.

Day: Wednesday or Friday
Time: 10PM

Day: Wednesday
Time: 10 pm

Don't mind running qualifying on a Friday at 8pm, or any time if I'm on line, but I will not be able to run sessions at 10pm due to working early shifts.


Just found this footage on you tube, its of the car that I'm running in the series. Hope it not a bad oman!
Look at some of the still pictures at the end

https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=YelodRFABH0

I can run a session at ten for the people on a -4 -5 or -6 time difference

Who wouldnt be able to make friday at 5pm, friday at 8pm or friday at 10pm?

Friday 5pm with SLR Jacko 088
Friday 8pm with sky blue sam 67
Friday 10pm with SLR Dalton 026

Really pumped for this event, liking the new main picture on the forum,

Regarding qualifying my preference would be Wednesday, any time after 7pm, but can do Fridays but will be hit and miss when i'm able to make it.

But one thought I had was running the 15 min qualy before the race, as in the mini season many people dropped out of qualy as the season went on and maybe people got put off racing in the actual event when they knew they couldn't make qualy in the week and had to start from the back.

Or if we stick to daltons original plan for grid line up, I just mention this as it would be better to sacrifice qualy for more regular drivers.

I think what I have posted above may be rendered useless, as have just seen daltons latest post

So would you be able to get on for one of them times each week pal ??

I should be able to make the qualy slots other than the 5pm one, but will probably miss the occasional one,

Again kudos on the event looking to be a good start for the new year

ok pal dont forget if you know you are going to miss a qualifying then grab an administrator and ask to run it earlier

ok will give heads if can't make a friday and see if another day is ok, otherwise I will start from the back, which I don't mind as its always fun trying to make your way through the field, instead of trying to hold somebody back for 27 laps but failing on the last lap

I'm happy to run qualifying at any time Mon-fri after 10pm and before 2am my time, earlier than that on weekends.

i believe thats 3 - 7 pm U.K time Zone

With day light savings I believe there is an 8 hour difference at the moment which would make it 2-6pm Mon to Fri.

So

Administrator...........Day..................Time

SLR Jacko 088......Monday - Friday......2pm - 6pm
sky blue sam........Friday....................8pm - 9pm
SLR Dalton 026.....Most days..............9pm - 12am

I just wanted to say that I am super excited for this series. I have been taking a short break from Forza in preparation of this series. I am going to be taking this very seriously, yet only wish to overall finish the top 6.

I am Super excited for this series, I plan on making my own tunes for each track and running trial endurance races to figure out pit strategy. I hope everyone else in the series is going to take the series as serious or half as serious as I plan to.

I still do not know my qualifying time, as I am going to change my schedule to be able to run this series. But this will be great fun for everyone.

Closely rated cars in endurance races. <3

See you all on the track(s)
