Signups list updated. Just over an hour to get confirmations or car choice changes in without penalty.

d

Quote from Kart0fL47 :

Car Number: 47
Driver's LFS UserName: Kart0fL47
Class: LFSBC
Car Selection: UF-BR (Updated)

Its none of my business, but just a note to admins that in the sign up list it says XF-JR class for Kart0fL47 and he has updated his post saying that he wants UF-BR, just incase any of you penalise him for not being in XF-JR.

Hope I helped, happy to do it as im very bored, just going on to test lol.

Quote from J@tko :

Championship Standings.

ok thanks mate so i still need to wait lol

Quote from J@tko :

You could work it out yourself



EDIT: Oh wait we don't have the champ standings yet....
That is fail.

is that for champ standings or previous race result ?

Quote from J@tko :

:shhh: Deko tells you what ballast you need when you confirm

oh ok so I need to confirm first ? If so then how shall I know which car to pick if I havent done any testing ? And how shall I know which cars tyres last longer for me cause they dont last near as long with ballast.

Niall

Quote from JO53PHS :

There is no ballast for the XF-JR...

The ballast is just for people that need to carry ballast, as per the ballast thread with ballast amounts (in Kg) in it

Ballast.

Can we get the ballast injfo please as I dont really want to do testing with no ballast and i THINK i need ballast as I came 5th and 1st in the 2 races but if I dont need any ballast please inform me ASAP because as I said I wouldnt like to do testing with ballast if I dont need it or without ballast if I need it.

Niall

Ok I made a poll a few days ago and I thought I put a link here already but I must have forgotten lol here it is anyway (Sunday is winning by 2 votes ATM)

DAMN !!!!!! I'm such a fuking noob lol I did it again, I did see that there was a second page AGAIN !!! SORRY FOR MY NOOBOSH ACTIONS LOL !

Quote from GreyBull [CHA] :

Anyway, yeah - why not a poll. Even if I'm around 95% sure that Saturday or Sunday will win.

Quote from GreyBull [CHA] :

Had you think of the possible clashes you would create if you put the races on week-ends? Currently there's at least 5 events every Sundays, and every Saturday or nearly there's a big endurence race(mainly the IGTC and the GTAL, special events such as the 9 hours of Aston and so one, and eventually MoE even if no one knows their plans for the next season). On the other hand, yes, it's a bit harch to exclude Americans, Asians, Australians, polar bears and so on by putting the race on a week day. But everyone that had created a league once has met one day this problem I guess.

Anyway, yeah - why not a poll. Even if I'm around 95% sure that Saturday or Sunday will win.

Yes well I have set the dates in the race calender for starting on the 5th of July(Sunday) to 6 weeks after that (the 7th or 14th of June or something), its in the calender anyway. But i think i can change the dates in the calender and if i cant i would say that victor can so i will just get on to him. Also I will make a Poll here (in the Murray Motorsport Cup Season 2 thread) so please go there and even if you are not in the cup you can vote on the poll.

Thanks,
Niall

Quote from Wilko868 :

I'd also advise you add the XRG as well, to get more sign-ups from RWD fans

Yes chris andy and I already had this discussion and we agreed that as last season didn't go too well we are going to have the same car (xfg) as last season and in season 3 which will happen late 09 early 2010 we may have xrg aswell as xfg.

Sign ups aren't open yet

Murray Motorsport Cup Season 2:

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS NOT A SIGN UP THREAD AND ALL OF THE FOLLOWING IS JUST COPIED AND PASTED HERE FROM HERE SO IF IT SAYS "TO DO SOMETHING IN A THREAD IN THIS SUB-FORUM" IT MEANS HERE

SIGN UPS OFFICIALLY OPEN HERE !

Hi Guys,

After a disappointing first season of the Murray Motorsport Cup, the league is back and better than ever. The rules/ info are found below. The sign ups are not open yet, they will be open 4-5 weeks before the first round (late may early June) so please be patient.


GENERAL:
The Murray Motorsport Cup Season 2 will be similar to the last season in a lot of ways, the car is the main way its similer as its still ONLY XFG. Last season there were prizes for the top three finishers in the cup, this season there will be a prize for the winner of the cup and the highest overall climber from all the races added together. Another small change is that in the Murray Motorsport Cup season 1 the person who got fastest lap got 1 extra point and the person who got pole position received 1 extra point too, but in this season to limit the amount of points the winner of the round will get (as the person who gets pole position, fastest lap and race wins are usually the same person) you will still receive an extra point for pole position but not fastest lap, instead the highest climber will get an extra point. This is explained in more detail at the bottom of the page. We will also be using weight ballasts which are explained further down the page. The Murray Motorsport Season 2 will also have 3 races on half of the rounds during the season and last season we only had 2 races each round.

PRIZES:
The prize for first place in the cup will be Sparco Pit lane shoes worth €61.73 in the colour and size of your choice, the Summer selection(bright colours) are found here and the Winter selection(dark colours) are found here and the winner of the cup can choose (subject to availability) ANY of the runners found in the winter selection or the summer selection. The highest climber will receive any of the following three fireproof, fully homologated racing gloves. If the winner of the cup is the highest climber then we will go to the second highest climber and award him/her the prize. You can Choose from the lico base gloves found here, Sparco Hurricane gloves found here, or the Sparco Land gloves found here. These gloves range from €38.00 to €45.00 and are available in any colour or size. All of these prizes are provided by Murray Motorsport www.murraymotorsport.ie

WHEN?
The cup will start on Sunday the 5th of July. The series will run One day a week, most weeks, it will be on at 19.00 GMT. You must confirm availability before each round in the thread labeled “Round 1 Sign ups” if its round 1 or “Round 2 Sign ups” if it is round two etc... If you do not confirm availability before 17.00 GMT (BST/UTC+1) you will have to start at the back of the grid for race one.


THE WEBSITE:
Our website is under construction and will be up and running hopefully well before the series starts to post the results/cup stats/driver stats/championship standings there. There will also be replays of every official practice qualifying and race uploaded to the website as well.

BROADCAST/ LIVERY:
The series will be broadcasted so you will need to apply number plates to your skin and post the skin in the thread labelled “Skins”, in the MMS Cup Season 2 sub-forum. You will also be asked to have a Murray Motorsport logo on the car, I will post a logo in a closed thread labelled “MMS Logo” but this is not compulsory, but as we are giving out over €100 for this cup we would greatly appreciate if you guys would participate and put a logo on your car if you are unable to due to lack of space etc… we would understand. We will have commentators for the events too.

WHO’S RUNNING IT?
The event will be run by me (Niall Murray[n-murray]) and Andy O’ Brien [aobrien] but Andy and I will be participating in the event so NDR (New Dimensions Racing), who run many excellently run championships, leagues, challenges, cups and events such as LFSBC (LFS beginner challenge) season 1, 2 and now the season three which is running with NDRC (NDR Challenge) Kyoto 250, new year events and many, many more will be running it during the races and helping after with the results, reports, championship standings etc...etc…,

EACH NIGHT:
There are 6 Rounds in the season and 3 of those rounds have 2 races a night and 3 have 3 races. If there are 2 races that night then qualifying will be 15 minutes long and 20 minutes long if there are 3 races, there will be 35 mins (approx.) of racing if there are 2 races a night and 40 mins (approx.) if there are 3 races. Each race night will consist of official practice where the drivers MUST be in the server for it but it is not mandatory, Qualifying and 2-3 races. If a driver arrives into the server late they will be put back 4 places in the qualifying results. If there are two races that night for race 1 your grid position is where you qualify but for race two the top 8 will be reversed to give the people that crashed in race one or qualifying a chance. If there is three races that night then you will start race one where you qualify and start race two where you finish for race 1 but for race three I will draw a number between 1 and 10 will be drawn from a hat and from that number will be reversed (if I draw 8 from the hat then the drivers that finished race 2 from 1st to 8th will get reversed). There will be points awarded for the top eight drivers. Pole position and highest climber will both receive 1 extra point.

WEIGHT BALLAST:
We will also be introducing weight ballast to the MMS Cup. It will be used in all rounds including the first round with the exception of the first race in the first round. The ballast is determined by your result from the previous race. For race Two on in the first round you will be required to have 25 kg if you win race one which means everyone ahead of you will have ballast on there car as the top 8 get reversed. For race 3 that night if you win again you will have to carry 25 kg of ballast. If you win race 3 then you will have to carry your ballast in ALL officially timed sessions (ie: Official Practice and Qualifying) of the next round and race one.

Race Position.............................Weight Ballast (Kg without fuel or driver)
......1st......................................... ..............25
......2nd......................................... ..............23
......3rd......................................... ..............21
......4th......................................... ..............18
......5th......................................... ..............15
......6th......................................... ..............13
......7th......................................... ...............9
......8th......................................... ...............5


WANT TO SIGN UP?
Sign ups will be open about 3-5 weeks before the first round(31st May-14 June)and closed the day before the first event (Saturday 4th June) at 20.00, so we would like you to copy and paste the following into this thread and fill it out.

LFS Username:
Preferred Number:
Real Name:

NOTE: not every number will be available all of the time so I will post here what numbers are taken so if you don’t want your number taken sign up quick! Also you will have to upload a replay into this thread, with a time within 104% of the WR on any of the tracks on the calendar in XFG.

CALENDAR:
Please find the calendar in the thread called “MMS Cup Season 2 Calendar”.

CHAT:
The rule for chat is from the time when an admin says “No Chat” till when an admin says “Free To Chat” there cannot be any chat. If you chat during a race an admin will give you a drive through penalty straight away and there’s no exceptions (unless otherwise stated from an admin). If you do not take your drive through penalty within 3 laps from the next time you cross the start/finish line after it was given to you, it will go to the next stage and the stages are drive through penalty then stop-go penalty then 1 lap holding penalty [stay in a pit box until leader has passed the point he was at when you first came to the pit box (one full leader lap)] then a black flag(disqualification from session). If you fail to do a drive through within three laps but the race is over during those three laps you will receive a 20-30 second penalty considering the severity of the offence, you will also receive a 20 second penalty if you chat on the last lap.

Dropped Round:
The dropped round rule allows drivers that got hit off or messed up on one round to still be in with a chance of winning the cup. There are 6 rounds, so for the dropped round you drop the round that you scored the least amount of points in. At the end of the cup the points will be added up and you get your final score by adding your best 5 rounds.

Feel free to pm me or Andy about Anything to do with the cup.

AND REMEMBER IN THIS SEASON WE HAVE PEOPLE TO WATCH YOU ON THE TRACK SO ANY CRASHERS WILL BE PUNISHED !
Thanks in advance
Niall (n-murray)
Andy (aobrien)

EDIT2:Changed from 105% of wr needed to enter to 104%.

Quote from dekojester :

Oops....wrong line...the comment is meant for Car 21, not 47.

I'll get that fixed later this evening.

d

i am car 21, what did i do wrong ?

Quote from dekojester :

I tend not to publish points until after results are official. I did what I did after round 1 so as to give an accurate ballast estimate for the week leading up for those who needed it to practice with.

Results will be up in the next couple hours, after I run the replay of Race 2 again (stats got FUBARed) and edit them to reflect classes.

d

Ok thanks a lot mate really appreciated

can we have round 2 results and the champ standings after it please ?

Ok i want to report #117 schumeric .. He hit me twice with careless driving , one of the times on the back straight had alot of lag but he was trying to draft on me from very close when he is in a GT500 car and im in a GT Light so he shouldnt of tried to do drafting anyway (about 8 hours 30 mins).. Then im not too sure what lap or time it was but a turn one he was completley reckless , i didn't get blue flagged so I held my line in which i was entitled too , he was a long way back and tried a ridicolous move , iv looked at the replay and i think he deserves a penalty of some sort because his driving was careless ..

Please take a look at his standard of driving

Quote from buck77 :

POLE POSITION, ONE VICTORY, ONE SECOND PLACE, ONE FASTAST LAP...

I'm happy! \o/
This was me for LFSBC...

Congratz, Murray, for the last race!!!

thanks mate and sorry again for that hit but again big lag and please watch replay if u doubt me

no, why ?

I dont think the scirroco is going to be out for round three so you guys really should think about a car or a class

Good idea James when do they have to be in for ? Next Monday ?

Quote from Fastwalker :

again sry for that
i actually braked a bit earlier than my usual braking point
just didnt expect u to go that slow in the corner
but yea its still my fault

i wanted to give place back but u were practically standing still

u didnt lose any other places i think tho?

No no I apoolagize for reporting you it was just at that time i was VERY anoyed at my performance through-out the race and btw i lost a few places from it but only because i had no speed down the straight. I would like to cancel that report if i could... Sorry again for reporting it hopefully i will do beter in the up coming events.

Quote from dekojester :

Also, on the restart, Cars 31 and 21 made contact in Turn 9, with Car 31 spinning and losing a place. This incident is still under investigation.

Yes I apolagise for causing that spin but I was stuck behind that car for the lenghth of the sc and longer and either I was ALOT quicker than him or he was going half speed as the sc was on the track but the person ahead of him sped away as the sc was a half a lap ahead and was going very fast so I was just very anoyed but as I recall I waited untill he was accelerating again facing the right way untill I started to accelerate. Again I apolagize ,I was just very frustrated

Quote from dekojester :

Yes, I'll allow it. I don't see that it would be too big of a deal here. The cars are fairly evenly matched, between the FXO and RB4 around here, XRT a bit slower. That's going off the WR and some brief testing.

d

Thank god we can use abs as my pedals are broken so I only have about half turbo around the whole track so without abs I would be dog slow LOL
