Highlights from ongoing series...









Last two races this Sunday and next Sunday!

 

this has been an awesome community. I am very glad I became a member of it. clean, respectful, fun, and not a lot of time spent setting up the cars, just show up and race. equal cars make for some great tight fields. teams are good to add to the friendly competitions. Go Team Jake!

 

I have only just remembered this, but I can't find the server....

 

Have you joined our forum? All the info is there and any help if needed.

 

Yeah, that was because it was our race time, our server goes to private mode when we have our actual series' races. Outside of that it's mostly available from Tuesday/Wednesday on, but you'll have to become a member before you can race in the series.

Our insert-a-lot-of-numbers' series is starting soon again, this Sunday we're having a series release party where the cars will be unveiled. Interested in joining us for series racing? Check this page

 

A change of pace with the next midweek series. Utilising the excellent mod from Sean Clarke, the Seat Leon Cup, a true tin-top touring car, we are hoping to reproduce thrilling, close, door to door racing, that this FWD lends itself to perfectly.

A five week series, racing on mainly Kunos' own tracks, with minimal adjustments available to fine-tune the car to your preference, will hopefully allow all levels to compete.

We may well introduce the use of Ballast and/or Restrictor settings, in a attempt to keep the field closer.

The emphasis will be on simple - Qualifying time will determine grid position for Race 1, then reverse grid (up to top 10) for Race 2.

There are a number of (very), good skins already available for the car, and the template is also included for download, if you really want to make your own.

Wednesday 5th July will see a Pre-Season "Appetizer" - a chance to try the car on some of the possible tracks to be used in the series. Newcomers and "slower" guys are especially encouraged to join the midweek series - it is much less pressure than the Sunday series, and we even talk a bit on Discord! Please come and join in the fun.

The server will be open to everyone tonight (8pm UK), for some testing and fun races, please search for "cosy" in the server list and feel free to join.

 

A great night of testing, with some classic door to door racing throughout the field.

The last race of the night, with numbers somewhat dropped, still resulted in 2 & 3 wide close racing encounters,

NB - The white car that nudges me off, and then into 2 other cars, was a random member of the public. This behaviour is definitely not condoned with the "cosy" ethos, and he would have been spoken to/reprimanded if it was not a "free testing session"

 

The Seat Showdown will now move to a bi-weekly series, starting 19th July.

Another testing session is planned for Wednesday 12th at 8pm UK, and will involve a few short qualifying and race sessions. All welcome - search "cosy" and join us!

 

Round 1 from Brands Hatch saw some great battles throughout the field, with Race 2 being particularly good IMO

this is going to be a fun series!
judging from the first couple pre-season meets, all four cars are very evenly balanced. Each has different strengths which will show on varying tracks and will make the racing very interesting.
Really looking forward to this one.
I did fairly well last time I drove an AWD Nissan.
shout out to Sven for the hard work and keeping everything organized.
