Hi guys/girls,

After a very successful first testing season the PCC is back for a second season with some changes to make it more competitive to all smile . As the name suggests you are only allowed to use production cars only so no prototypes or race cars, tuned cars are allowed but only IF they are a part of the original manufacturer i.e AMG, M cars and Nismo.

This season there will be 10 tracks with 2 races done on each track which you''l find the list at the bottom of this post. The rest of the rules are as follows:

  • Cars are limited to 500 PP
  • 2 cars must be picked for this season
  • Both cars cant be the same model
  • Each car must be raced on at least 3 of the tracks
  • No aftermarket aero parts are allowed
  • No Ballast allowed on cars
  • Racing tyres are allowed this season
  • Must use 2 compounds per race for at least 4 laps each
  • You are allowed to change parts this season
Penalties:

  • Not using both compounds in a race = -2 points
  • Causing a crash due to bad driving = -1 point
  • Deliberately ramming another driver = -5 points
  • Cutting corners repeatedly = -1 point/time
  • If you want to change 1 of your cars picked for the season the points will be reset for that car only so for example if earned 20 points for a Viper and 40 for a M3 i would only lose the 20 points if i wanted to change the viper.
Track List:

Round 1/2: Tokyo R246 - 20 laps each - Sunny
Round 3/4: Suzuka (Full track) - 16 laps each - Rain
Round 5/6: Trial Mountain (Reverse) - 26 laps each - Sunny
Round 7/8: Grand Valley (Full track) - 20 laps each - Sunny
Round 9/10: Madrid (Full Track) - 26 laps each - Sunny
Round 11/12: Eiger Nordwand - 32 laps each - Rain
Round 13/14: Road Course Indy - 24 laps each - Sunny
Round 15/16: Nurburgring GP/F - 16 laps each - Sunny
Round 17/18: Deep Forrest Raceway (Reverse) - 26 laps each - Sunny
Round 19/20: Laguna Seca Raceway - 26 laps each - Sunny

Why Racing tyres? I thought things worked well with the sports and 500pp isnt too much for sport tyres.

reason why was to mix up tyre choice and pit strategy because atm everyone only raced softs/meds and only done 1 stop so to do this i had a choice of comforts or racing tyres so choose racing otherwise there would have been a riot hehe .

Racing softs are fast but they dont last long compared to others (tried this on several different types of cars) so now hopefully tactics will be involved more smile

And that's on dry weather tyres laugh Eiger is less frightening than Suzuka which has one massive braking zone and one lift and/or dab brakes super fast corner.. and Degner 1.. and fairly big braking into the final chicane (with nice solid barriers).

Color: Pink
Name: Trofeo de Fabuloso Triunfadores Mundial

Are we allowed rain tyres/intermediates for the wet tracks ?

Count me in anyway. Don't know what car combo I want at the mo, and I'm away for a few days now, so I'll get chance to have a look next week. Maybe a practice sesh on Weds ?

Can I take yellow/(black wheels where poss) ?
