Aussie Battlers

This series will start on the 30th of September. The lobby will open at approx. 8pm with racing to start at 830pm (Victorian Time)

Cars

This series will be running cars that were built in Australia. It will be run at a MAX PI of B600, so no super taxis. For a car to be eligible, it must have been at least mostly assembled in Australia. It does not have to be the exact model, so sports versions that were not built here of cars that were will be accepted. Engine, aspiration and drive train conversions are not allowed.


Driver Groups

Drivers will be placed into their groups based on an assessment of their results in previous series. If you disagree about which group you are in, you are free to request a switch to the other group. Most regulars know which group they are in.

Each handicap level will have PI reduced by 15. So Slow Group will have 600, Medium 585, fast 570 and Freak 555.

Points

2nd = 0pt
3rd = 0pt
4th = 0pt
5th = 0pt
6th = 0pt
7th = 0pt

Drop outs and DNFs will receive points based on how close they came to finishing. for example if someone dropped out on lap 7 they would receive more points than someone that dropped out on lap 3 regardless of their position when they dropped out.

If a serious attempt was made to join the lobby, but due to XBOX or ISP issues was unable to actually race, they will receive 5 points or 3 places lower than awarded on the night, whichever is higher.

Each race will consist of at least 50 km. 2 races will be held each Friday night, each on a different track.

Your car should be in the colours of your favourite football team. The code does not matter but your car should be easily identifiable as being that team.
Numbers should be large enough to be legible and in a colour that is easy to see.

At the end of each round a "Now for something completely different" race will be held, with the track to be chosen by the previous weeks driver that came last in race 1, and the car/s chosen by the driver that came last in race 2. This race will not be counted towards the championship, and is purely for fun.

Races will use tyre and fuel damage only, and default collisions (ie ghosting for stopped cars)

This post will be updated soon.

Please post any questions in this thread.

I will be away for the second week getting my head reset so if someone could cover as host for that week it would be most appreciated.

Would the opel kadet aka holden gemini be eligible ?

Sounds good. I should be in (no more footy on Friday nights for the year).
