S3R Presents: The Winter Beater Cup

The series features the RB4 in eight events on both rallycross tracks and road courses. Each event consists of two equal length races, with the second race grid set by inverting the finishing order of the first race. The first race uses a random starting grid. Rusty, crappy themed skins are appreciated.

There will be a practice event January 6th to get used to the format. The first race will be January 13th. The server name is "S3 Racing Thinkin RBs". Passwords will be posted in this thread. If we need to lock it down I'll send out the password via PMs.

The server is up now and is set to rotate between the tracks in the series. Feel free to stop by for some practice.

Oh crap, the fast guys are signing up now.

Welcome

Maybe his beater only has 3 wheels...

Looks pretty fun, I'll try to be there. That time offset is UTC-5, am I right?

Don't have snow down here but I'll try to come up with a reasonable beater.

Hmmm, 415 races and you were on the podium 418 times Lee? So you probably came in first and second in 3 races? I heard some weird stuff was happening on those CORE servers ......

Sorry the time isn't good for Europeans. We'd love to have you, but unfortunately I can only race mid-week.

BTW I updated the first post with server information and the sign up list so far.

sorry , i will have to pull out, i have just noticed races will be at 1:00am.
It is not possible for me to participate at that time. Thanks anyways, and good luck with the league, it sounds fun.

Updated the first post with a the latest entry list. Also, the server "S3 Racing Thinkin RBs" is up now and is set to rotate between the 8 tracks in the series.

Just a thought here....the closer you get to the first race(i.e. 1 week out), it might be a good idea to change it from a rotation to only on the upcoming combo, that way the people that are preparing for the races can not only get used to the combo, but the other drivers as well in that combo.

Is this open to all racers?

If so sign me up!
