SUV Cup - General Discussion

Fazed Intro wrote:No invite? I know I registered late but DAMN!

Same happened to me and a few others last week although invites were sent out twice. Same last night, so I've waited till 5 minutes before race time and then joined on the host's GT [Mr. Driv3]. It's a known Xbox/Forza issue - some you get and some you don't.

An evening to forget in the SUV's for me last night. First engine damage in qualify, then same in race 1 [which I've noticed a bit late] and then network issues at the start of race 2 with some ludicrous consequences.

Sad to hear that Hope you have better luck next week man :/

I couldn't get into the party because it was full and the game wouldn't let me join the lobby until you'd already started qualy... worst race night for a LONG time

Just as an aside, I don't think the lobby problems are all due to Forza. GTA online has been a bit off lately too.

I did not know you were having any of these issues... Had I known I would have tried to help.

I messaged you before qualy saying 'I'm down as not racing, but I am' and heard F**K all back... did you not notice why some bloke had join midway through qualy and was sat in a Buick GNX for 5 mins?

IMPORTANT INFO

After much deliberation and some testing the Nissan Juke now has an updated build as it was found to be unbalanced.

any invites been sent?

Some nice racing last night. An early bump from behind caused me some places and an early pit visit, but no hard feelings and all in good sport.

Just a request - the B-chat lobby in race 1 did not know on what count the race will start so was caught a bit off-guard at the start with a late (and wild ) scramble to turn one. Perhaps start count can be confirmed before line-up ? Or was it just a few of us that did not listen ?

Thanks

Yeah I did tell mikey that it was going to be 2 mins start, we had a lot of chatter going on just before the start in A party too, could have been a miscommunication or something, didn't look like it affected you guys too much though

By the time I got the notification of your PM, we were on the grid. XBL delays were the true culprit in that miscommunication.

Yeah, I've got Mr Driv3's invite to play only after we started qualy - so about 20 minutes after he has send it.

Hi guys I was hoping to join this series starting tonight (2/2/17)but I haven't had my TORA number accepted yet, so do I need to wait until I receive it? Also I'm no good at doing liveries so I'm ok to just use a simplistic livery for now (obviously including the regulatory decals too)

The number you want is free on the list so there should be no reason you won't get it.

PM Mr Driv3 and he can sort it for you, he's also the co ordinator of the SUV Cup so make sure you add him on XBL.

As long as the mandatory decals are on then a simple livery is fine.

Ah ok then I didn't want to seem a pester for my number as I'm sure he's probably busy most of the time. I will give him a PM shortly about it and yeah I will add him on XBL too

I haven't been on in a few days and the docs hadn't been updated in that time either BUT it's all updated not so you're all good to register and that

Ah awesome thanks . One other thing regarding main sponsor, does it have to be a real world one or can I make one up?

made up is fine...as long as it doesn't break the rules..

Given the slightly different track markings at Long Beach, can we assume that the track limits will be similar to those used by Diablo for ASCC, including not using extra track at pit exit for turn 1 ?

I'll post a track limits thing soon as it's a little hit and miss with LB but yeah, close to ASCC rules
