For any and all racing enthusiasts looking for a fun, organized and competitive racing series on Forza Motorsport 6 then it’s time to join in. Introducing a V8 Supercar - NASCAR themed series using the Ford Falcon & Holden Commodore. I have found these to be some of the easiest cars to handle/drive/tune which makes for very intense close racing. After being a part of many racing leagues in the past, I have high hopes for this one. Races will be held weekly with the actual schedule and planning still up in the air because everyone’s schedules are different. Looking for at least 6 competitors before competition will officially start.
RULES:
Race length is subject to change on a track to track basis, judging on time limits and/or pit strategy.
Daytona & Indy Ovals will be timed - distance driven races only because 50 laps is just a few too short for both. All rest of tracks will be on a lap basis.
Tracks to be run (not actual schedule) - Daytona Tri Oval Day/Night, Indy Oval, Watkins Glen Short, Sonoma Short, Road Atlanta, Road America, and any others that we can vote or discuss.
- Car Rules
V8 Supercars
#17, #5 Ford Falcon FG X
#1, #14, #22, #97 Holden VF Commodore
2A- For Daytona Oval - My tune labeled Coca Cola Cup is mandatory on both the Ford Falcon & Holden Commodore, as it evens out the cars and takes away the significant horsepower advantage that the Falcon has.
2B - For Indy Oval - Ford Falcon will have a maximum of R-842 PI. We achieve this by using Stock Valves, and Stock Ignition. Everything else can be upgraded. This limits horsepower to a competitive level with the Holden.
-
Tuning/Upgrades - There is no limit on upgrades and PI level for any road course circuit. Tuning is up to you. CAN NOT use anyone’s tune who is not apart of the series. Tuning and helping others within the series is encouraged. I’m a very good tuner and already have shared various tunes for my #1 Holden and am willing to help anyone out.
-
Damage will be set to simulation. This includes tire wear and fuel usage. So that also means there is no intentional wrecking/bumping/spinning allowed. If this action is witnessed by myself or another Race Steward you will be docked 5 points per instance.
-
Cautions
Cautions may be called when two or more cars are involved in an accident. An accident being getting hard into the wall, spinning out, major loss of momentum, etc. If it’s a love tap that gets someone a little sideways but that’s it thats not a caution. Damage itself will police wether you need to pit or you can retain your running position. All cautions will be run at 60 MPH for all tracks. Cautions will last for the remainder of the current lap the leader is on, as well as one additional lap. This is to try and give those involved in a wreck time to pit, get repairs, and get caught back up for the restart. If you are damaged and unable to get back to the pits and get back in order by the time the leader is ready to take the start they will start without you. -
Points
1st - 30 Points
2nd - 23 Points
3rd - 22 Points
And so on. This puts an emphasis on winning but not so much no one can come back.
Anyone that starts the race but cannot finish it either due to network lag out or whatever will receive the points as if they’d finished behind the last running car.
If you cannot attend the scheduled race, you will receive 0 points for that week.
- Liveries - custom liveries are welcomed, but not required as I’m not much of an artist lol. You have to have a number on at least both sides of car. Everyone’s number will be on a first come first serve basis. And must stick with same number throughout series.
If this sounds like something you are interested in joining then please feel free to send me a message via Xbox Live or on here with any questions or concerns. I look forward to starting this awesome series and making new forza friends in the process.
