MSA TORA Transatlantic Drag Championship - General Discussion

Talk!

This sucks it's the wrong time everything's wrong time here

Well what's the "right" time?

I thought YES finally!
But.....it is really drag and not like GT endurance....
Pity.

Are you planning on using the default 3,2,1 Start or a delayed start to allow for "red lights" and "holeshots"?

I'll probably toy with it, I guess it depends on what others want. The only issue with a delayed start is making sure no one jumps. Sometimes even the slightest time difference can make a big speed difference one mile later

Not having a set staging period is where T10 dropped the ball, as there is little challenge in just holding the throttle until it lets you go.

Hmm well I may test it out. By the time it starts, the tyres will be colder though. I'll set up a poll at some point

should ahve put in the test track drag lanes because you can hold up to eight at one time

It only goes up to 1/2 mile

so what times are the actual race?

8pm

ok cool as
thanks

That's 5am here on sunday I'm at work

Sounds interesting, can't wait!

bring back the holden, which one idk, but i'll see
haven't had the chance to race either, so it'll be a first

Yes it would have been great if Turn10 has setup drag racing correctly with burn-outs, staging, timing offset and red lights but they didn't. I thing the 3-2-1 start would be good. The reason I say that is the race will be if the drivers get a good start and not stall it if using a clutch or if they can control the wheel spin when launching. This is going to be fun.

We have to buy a new car for every meeting?

You don't have to, you can use a car you already have if you wish. You only need four cars and they're all fairly cheap, and if you have the right car level then upgrades are free.

Of course there's also the bonus rounds but you don't have to participate if you don't want to.

Likewise.... R8 Cup is very cool too.
