Grand Prix Rejects

Here's some BIG news, not just for V8 Supercars, but for Formula 1 as well... Minardi two seater set for Bathurst 1000 track time - seeing as Cameron McConville - who drove the car previously at the Australian GP - won't be available to drive it, it could mean that HWNSNBM will be the driver for the...

I might finish this championship now (even though I planned to run 10 rounds) as there won't be a round for a few more weeks. The rounds that were planned (for anyone who may have been around in the chat room when I opened suggestions for round ideas) will be moved across to the next series, startin...

I've looked into using rFactor for a rallying championship and have determined that the most effective way of running a rally stage would be to run a private qualifying session - all cars still run at the same time, just not against each other on the road. However, many tracks don't work with this d...

Apologies to anyone who has already sent in a time, but there is a rule change - anyone using GTPSP must use Normal tyres. For the PS3 era games, does repainting the car count into the budget? EDIT: What about the tires? Do the OEM tires count? Also, I need to tell that Autumn Ring Mini isn't in GT3...

New challenge is now underway, trying something a bit different this week. Details are in the opening post.

MinardiFan95

http://i.imgur.com/hltV0ML.png No bonus points awarded this week - sorry Nuppiz, not even using economy tyres for this week's challenge was enough for bonus points. The details for the next round will be added to the opening post soon and as always, ROTR and IIDOTR are up for voting.

MinardiFan95

Something that's always fallen flat on its face in canon is rallying. It's rarely covered at all. This is of course my fault, I tried to load up xkoranate beyond its limits and the whole thing fell over. But RRC died rather quickly too. Some sort of quality WRC type series would be wanted, at least...

Just under a day to go until the end of this round, so get your times in soon if you haven't done so already.

Only a few hours to go with this challenge, so get your times in if you haven't done so already.

MinardiFan95

So, if I, let's say have GT5, I go on a lap around Special Stage Route 5 on any Skyline non-tuned model and then I e-mail you the time? Or does it have to be in video file as a proof? Just email the time, though it could be a good idea to save the replay of the best lap just in case. For GT1, do th...

I'm thinking of reviving the Rejects of Gran Turismo series... again . Here's the original thread if you can't remember the series. I may consider running a series similar to this in a PC racing sim instead if there is enough interest - RACE 07 could be a good choice as it has a reasonable car and t...

MinardiFan, I still need a concrete livery and/or plan, although you promised it was in the works.

Didn't get around to finishing the livery on the weekend as promised, though it will be a mainly white car sponsored by John Deere with a green and yellow engine cover and rear wing.

MinardiFan95

I'm thinking of setting up a GT6 session for a few hours before the Canadian GP tomorrow, it'll be set up so we vote on what track to race on and the winner gets to choose the PP range.

A few of us were having a conversation in the F1R Chat, when the topic of V8 Supercar enduro co-drivers came up. I proposed the following avatar bet...
