Oh stop it party breakers. Specially Dru.

I just did few races on CTRA2 and like 10 peeps joined me...
Just join and after about 10 minutes someone will show up! And then another and another etc.

Also lot's of ppl doesn't know that CTRA2 is back on TBO only. And lots are also on Y30/31 testing new cockpits. You'll see popularity of CTRA2 after a month, two!

Hang about mate - I'm the reason you got the blimin TBO server back - go go and use it
I was on for about an hour tonight, server started getting quite busy.

I am a bit sad there is no place for my beloved FZ5 in pretty much any online racing, however, the TBO class does offer some top notch racing

15 people online and racing - come get it whilst it's hot
Ok Dru, my apologies. Thank you.

I hope you all finally have realized my point now when you experienced pure juices of TBO

Let us see what happens over the next few wekks - maybe interesting with Z coming out tommorrow (hopefully)
I still remember trying XRT for the the first time in the demo servers,( XRT was a REAL handfull then) Still my favorite with the shopping car a close second

Good to see the TBO server busier earlier
This is such a great news to start a day TBO's on CTRA! Great racing is back in town

Here is a thought:
Another way to populate a server is to set one hour in a day with doubled points... Let's say, set 20.00 hour (CET) to be an hour with double scoring.

WOW great idea

there are a lot of problems with a happy hour

It would devalue licences
it would devalue non happy hour racing
it would be unfair on those from other timezones
I'll hear someone say "you got your platinum in happy hour" and sigh
Spoil sport
moaning minnie
Been called worse.......

Good counter points though, pretty much shoots the idea down in flame

There's already a great way to score double points. It's called endurance day

(time for me to scrounge some decent XRT setups and get back into TBO racing i think )
When is endurance day on CTRA?? Either I am missing that all the time or there is no endurance day since STCC.

It's different for each server. It's indicated by an 'E' symbol in a circle on the server page http://www.raceauthority.com/servers.asp
(none of them are on endurance day today)

There has been endurace day pretty much since the launch of the 'X' system iirc.
Thanks for that prompt response. I play quite often on CTRA servers but didn't know about that People are learining every day - and especially me.

Is there any special points system counting on E day?

Part of the points calculation is the race duration, so yes.. you get more points for an Endurance race than a regular race. Over an hour or two of racing, though, you probably don't gain or lose any points earning potential. It's just varying the format of racing for one day in the week
Awesome racing with a healthy grid at AS3 - no doubt Z helps but still, the proof is in da pudding
Race 2 is back at its best. :laola:

CRAZY racing. A FULL field in Race 2 and one race I was in the entire field bar a few finished on the leading lap. Great fun, just wish we had the same on the GT server
Quote from zeugnimod :Race 2 is back at its best.

Sort of.

Some truly crap driving going on. I was punted off the track in 5 out of 6 races at as3 by people that seem to have forgotten where the brake is.

A totally frustrating experience.

I hope Race 3 sees some more action soon.
