Series Discussion Thread

I agree.

Okay. I have had enough. We ARE NOT using Bristol LNR. We are either using in game Bristol or someone needs to edit the grip on the 2011 Bristol track.

I've tried EVERYTHING on my setup to make it not spin out in the middle of t3-4 and NOTHING works.

are you bottoming out?, I haven't heard of anyone else complaining of that. I like LNR it seems like every other version is loose as hell

It's like I am bottoming out, but my ride height and everything is as high as possible. So it's not bottoming out.

We are not going through this shit again. We need to have a track ready for Texas BY next Wednesday.

(We have one for Pikes Peak already, thanks to Caleb making one)

Got Pike's Peak up for next week, you prolly have it already since we used it for the Nwide Series.

November 24th we won't race due to Thanksgiving, so I'll extend me last post to that Wednesday instead.

We used Revampled 2010 with good result last year, don't see why we can't again.

Yeah, can't remember if that one's a frame raper or not though

I would hope we don't change the track...

Track links for Texas and Richmond are up. Same tracks as last season.

Haven't run the Darlington from Smiff's Den with cup physics yet, but I guess it would be between that and SBP_Night_08.

you raced at texas baker, remember you kept speeding on pit road and got DQ'd lol.

the smiffsden version of darlington was really good last season

No, I didn't race at Texas, I got wrecked on lap one by Chin and couldn't pit correctly.

I thought we used SBP08 last season though for Darl

Nope, Smiff's Den. Nothing wrong with that either.

As Caleb said, the only track we really need to work on from here on out is Charlotte. Everything else was fine last season.

Looking at the schedule, it appears there are only three tracks where we'd have some deciding to do.

Darlington seems like we could use what we used last season, Road America we'd prolly use the HR version.

Charlotte we've had issues picking a good one in the past, LNR's racing was kinda bad, SBP has that bump going into 1, Charlotte_2011 might be good, not sure about the Revamped version at all.

Martinsville is a toss up, we could use revamped like last season, or Smiff Den's new one.

Atlanta Revamped was decent last year, I felt like it needed a little more grip on the bottom and a little less grip on the top, but SBP is what I like to use offline (has a decent high line, but you can't full throttle the high line like you basically can with Revamped for a few laps)

I had made some grip edits to the Atlanta we used and it helped alot, but we havent tested it online yet.

Okay, well we could use next Wednesday for testing your grip edits and a couple of Charlottes, and maybe Revamped M'ville vs. Smiff Den's

Since next Thursday we'll have the night off, we can use that Wednesday for future races.

uh we're off because of thanksgiving. dont count on many people showing up

I know, but if you're around I think we could get 2-3 more people to show up maybe.

Homestead next season and current NASCAR point system, enough said.

+1

i agree, the points system we have now is basically just the old nascar points divided by 4. I would like to see how the new nascar points would pan out

I have that made out already Jake, but Caleb told us how to do it in the admin's section

IIRC the merge line for Texas is going into turn 3 instead of coming out of turn 2. If you could fix that Caleb, or if someone can fix that and send the ini to Caleb, I'd appreciate that.

I think I have the ini with that fix. Let me see if it still works.

If we use Caleb's server, i'm like 80% positive he lowered the tire heat a bit on the server. So if you're testing and it seems high, it will be better for the actual race.
