Thanks

So the cars can't be NA?

Nope - depending on the car they'll be either turbo'd or twin turbo'd

Okay... one more moan. Why the Audi Sportback? having seen the entire seasons of BTCC and WTCC there is no Audi wagons. A4 R4 S4 but no Sportback . I thought the whole RWD thing was REALISM then add a UN realistic car???

Well tonight we done the starts that TCC will be using and it was great. No complaints from b lobby

The newest Audi S4 would be the only suitable car that fits clse to the rules, however it can only have a Supercharger and cannot be fitted with a Turbo, hence the RS3 which fits the rules.

Yeah, what Richy said. Keeping the aspiration the same across the board was what kept last season close. With the feedback from last season that people wanted RWDs back, it was apparent we go one of two ways. Retain aspiration restrictions, by stipulating turbos, or open the builds freely.

The problem with opening the builds up is that there's more likelyhood that someone will hit on an unbalanced build that may dominate. So by restricting builds to turbos, we enforce a check and balance on the series that should keep things close on track. Unfortunately, that simply meant that some cars don't meet the build regs, regardless of how much we'd like them in there.

At the end of the day though, we aren't trying to replicate a real-world series car for car. There are plenty of other forza series that do that, and ours indeed started out as a BTCC series, but we evolved it into our own series, with it's own identity and brand that stands apart from the coat-tails of any real-world series.

This is the TORA Touring Car Championship, and we hope you enjoy it!

First season for me and looking forward to this oh and with regards to the the starting was also done in the mr2 series A lobby and works a treat also funny seeing people stall or miss the timer when watching replays thinks this is a good idea cause it seems more relaxed and not stressing waiting for the timer to reach 0 when you have just got into the race all in all makes the race run a lot smoother

and realistic!

Then like Toyota... no Audi. Sorry to Rob Morgan fans but I can't have a Frank Wrathall car either

Rob? You mean Adam Morgan don't you?

Or did you mean Rob Austin?

are you sure you're not thinking Morgan Shepard?

No, Rob Morgan. He drove Trucks and Nationwide, and never accomplished much. Old Morgan Shepherd was actully a Cup winner and runner up in season points in both Cup and Nationwide before he got really old.

The season seems a bit short... two TCC seasons this year?

Thread cleaned up to get rid of pointless, off topic posts. I don't want to see anymore memes flooding these forums, it is getting very tiresome and we keep missing important questions because of them or spats between members. Venture into the off-topic area and have it out there, but please keep the General Discussion threads and series relevant threads tidy in the future.

Richy the grid slots at Nurburgring at the start line there are 8 slots, however further down the track there are about 17 grid slots. These grid slots are more evenly spread out which should help with RWD advantage off the line. Also we'll have alonger run down to turn 1 so this could stop any crashes.

Yeah I remember you saying last night, I will have a look this afternoon. I have a video I have made showing how to do the new grid starts, but need to voice it over and also I have an issue with one of the parts of the video.

This will be remedied......BUT....... provided you are willing I will tune anything for the tcc.

When asked to tune a car you must be willing to forfeit space on your car for the PLOWmod symbol on both sides the front and the rear.

Wear it with pride.

Or ahhem you can run a cqr badge

When I tune a car for you I tune it for YOU, I give you a tune and you send me the replay, i then tune it to your style and hopefully massively improve your laptimes and race skill.

Pm me for info

Oh, and to add, I will only be available to tune approx 3 different cars so get your request's in.

More interested in bringing some of the B lobby guys up to play in A lobby.

What's that mean tubbi 10 cars?
