The Race Of Champions 2012 Format

The Draw

This will be names in a hat and pulled out to see who is in what group and will be done at 20:00GMT tonight

Group Stages



Main Event



Timings

Group A will start off at 20:00GMT, Group B will start off at 20:30GMT, Group C will start off at 21:00GMT, Group D will start off at 21:30GMT.

The main event will start at 22:00GMT and the last race should be finished by 23:00GMT.

As this will be shown live on TORA TV there will be 2 hosts for the start of the evening in the group stages so there is no waiting around of people getting into lobbies. As Group A start off there stages Group B will start getting invites into there lobby, once group A finish the camera car will join the lobby and that lobby will start off, lobby A will be cleared and group C will be invited into that lobby. Once Lobby B finish then Group D will be invited into that lobby while Group C are racing. Once Group C finish this will become the Main event Lobby and all the drivers who are taking part will be invited into that lobby, once Group D is finished the final two drivers will join the main event lobby.

All lobbies will be set to invite only and will not allow any extras into the lobby, if anyone would like to watch they can view the event on TORA TV. The group stages will have a max of 6 people in each lobby and the main event having 10 people in the event, each race will have 3 cars on the track, the two cars racing and the hosts car. The camera car and the others in the lobby may then watch the event in the spectator mode and the race will start when the timer hits 30 seconds.

Would ya like me to host the 2nd lobby?

I can do myself as I have a second xbox and would make it easier as you are in it

ok man sounds good, cant wait!

Really looking forward to this now

Where can I access these cars from as I want to have a practice.

You can get the cars from Sunday hahaha no practice in the cars

So I'm still a lil confused, the intial round will consist of a 4 car race of how many laps? With the top 2 advancing into the first round?

No lol it will be like this

Group A
20:00
Driver 1
Vs
Driver 2

20:05
Driver 3
Vs
Driver 4

20:10
Driver 1
Vs
Driver 3

20:15
Driver 2
Vs
Driver 4

20:20
Driver 1
Vs
Driver 4

20:25
Driver 2
Vs
Driver 3

The the top two drivers will advance to the next round, each driver has 3 races of one Troc lap.

This is group A, the same will happen with the next 3 groups.

Does that make sense?

Should be good, hopefully i'll get paired against Wumba then i can smash the crap outta' him!

Just over 2 hours till the draw

Sort of haha but I'll figure it out, just gonna try and win each race then haha

looks like the four drivers in each group, Rob, are sorted to have raced against the 3 other drivers in each group. top 2 of the group move on, i guess?!

Correct

That's what I ment earlier haha ok oh I can't wait!

Damn! I cant take Chris on in the LMPC or Mark in the TASCAR!

and i have to battle DAN in an ISCC vehicle in our group Chaddy. hope to Jebus it isnt the Lola Aston!

Its the LMPC mate

Looks I'm taking on Magic in his Jag?? Now that's just not cool! Lol

No the GT car is TPR BOX car from S9.
