Follow up to WTCC (Track selection)

Hey guys,

As the wtcc season is quickly coming to a close with only 3 race dates left, i wanna start putting together our next series and run some test before season finish so we can start the following week!

I want everyone to chip in the follow up mod so iam giving you all the chance to pick your 2 favorite ingame tracks all we will run them in the follow up series :) This way the only ad on will be the car mod

when posting your tracks please list your favorite 1st incase we have more than 5 guys submitting.  The season will have 10 bi weekly races.

2nd question:  Race format

What style format do you guys want?

A: 10min quali, 2x 30min race 1 mandatory pit per race

B: 10 min quali 1 30 min race 1 mandatory pit

C: 10 min quali 1 45 min race  or 25 laps 1 mandatory pit

D: 10 min quali 1hr race open pits race simulation

Once the majority has voted on the tracks ill start testing the  3 mods to see which will suit the track combo the best.

cheers

Track I will ponder, race format I liked the two half hour races, means if you mess up one you have a chance to pull back on the second.

Occurs to me it is hard to decide on tracks until I know what car I'm running, and is it really necessary to go beyond the stock mods? With a mix of R07 installs as we have it could get silly installing and uninstalling mods from a program that is not best set up for it.

If we are just adding cars/tracks it shouldn't be a big deal, but as far as a mod like the SSR2000 that might be a headache as Knight mentions.

I would like to add Leguna Seca to our tracks.  So far the only BTCC track I haven't cared for is Rockingham.  I just couldn't get the hang of that track.  All the others we have run so far I have liked.  I wouldn't mind running the DTM cars either. Those look like fun for sure.  I am going to try and add Ring GP again, I think I know what was causing my issue before.

So far the car mods I have added are the Clio's and the super V8's and they both run just fine.  So I don't mind adding more cars like the DTM's.

Preferably i would like to run the dtms, i tried the other ingame cars and the only ones i cared for were the radicals and kinda the formula bmw.  we can scrap the 2012 mod and just use the stcc cars which will give us a bigger selection of cars and we can either run a season of ingame tracks or use those cars for season 2 of btcc and and run the same tracks as season 1 again and start that in the spring?

Thanks to iracing i have a twitch for running a little more powerful cars....and the dtm fills that need....extremly easy to handle, sounds awesome and honestly are maybe 10mph faster than the wtcc cars.  I ran a 20 car race at laguna seca on the weekend and it was pretty awesome :)

Well I think we should run the BTCC tracks...That is after all what the BTCC does, okay change to updated cars that is in the spirit of the thing. I like the idea of that kind of consistent thing it encourages long term rivalry and grudge tracks. That is the bread and butter of that series. smiley

So i got the DTM's from nogrip http://www.nogripracing.com/details.php?filenr=32422 last night and tried them out at Hockenheim.  Going to take some getting used with the RWD but I am willing to give them a shot.  Will need to get much more practice with them, but no issues installing them

I tried to load Nürburgring GP again and for whatever reason it crashes my game.  It even crashes my game when i try to open other  tracks. I have to remove it from my locations folder, so I don't know if the track is bad or what.
