Tutu October 7 2014 - TuTu Fall Series In A Night
« on: October 01, 2014, 04:00:39 PM »

Car: Red Bull Jr.

Setup: Stock.

Restrictions
Tuning: Prohibited
Tires: Racing Soft
Lounge: PRIVATE LOUNGE. Please add me prior to Tuesday. Anyone who adds me after I create the room will sadly be SOL for this week.
Laps: 5. For every race (unless noted). There will be a 5-6 minute gap between each race. We will continue down the list until 9:30. If a race is underway at 9:25, it will be the last race. If not, the last race will start at 9:30 PM eastern. General hooliganry will continue thereafter.
Qualifying procedure: Ha! This is TuTu. You are not rewarded for being fast, as you will start last.
Cautions: None.
Black Flagging: Hopefully not needed. Always use good judgement and give back positions you didn't earn.

What the...?
That's right, I'm stealing a little from Baked's Career in a Year and doing a Series in a Night. A full season of racing. In 2 hours.
The first race will begin at 7:45 PM Eastern. If you can't make it for every race, DON'T WORRY! Nor do you need to stay until the end! Drop in, drop out. There are all kinds of awards available for you to win...

Schedule
Race 1: Brands Hatch, 7:45 PM.
Race 2: Fuji GP
Race 3: Silverstone GP
Race 4: Indy Road Course
Race 5: Spa (4 laps!)
Race 6: Nurb GP
Race 7 (unlikely): Suzuka (4 laps)
Race 8 (very unlikely): Monza
Race 9: Red Bull Ring

Points
1st +20
2nd +10
3rd +5

In addition, positions 1-however many are in the race will be awarded that number of points in reverse. Example:

If 8 people finish a race...
1nd: 8 +20
2st: 7 +10
3th: 6 +5
4rd: 5
5st: 4
6rd: 3
7th: 2
8st: 1

Discos will be treated as DNFs and 0 points.
"Flagged" (running at the finish but unable to finish within the 90 second timer) will result in 0 points (this is in an effort to prevent people from parking).

Confusing enough? It gets better...

Awards

In addition to an overall TuTu Fall Series Champion, there will be awards for Highest Average Finish, Most Podiums, Highest Average of Points per Race (yes, this is different than Highest Average Finish). There will also be awards for each race champion and podium finishers. And by awards, I mean I'll call you out next Wednesday here in this thread. If, there are, statistically, other variations you can think of, let me know and we'll include those too.

Even if you only can make 1 race, you can still bag a top award.

Come out and help make this a success! If it's fun enough, we'll do it again!

I will be tired we just started a three week long work project but I am not going to miss this worn out or not. Can you tell I am enthusiastic about this event?

I will definitely be there for this one. I've only raced the jr's once online before, but it was a blast.

I had 2 RBJ's, both set to default on all 3 settings, couldn't get on the track. >:(

Bought a new one, changed the tires and got into a race, tried to enter the track for the next race, no luck on any of the settings. So my night ended early. :(

The one race was fun though. ;D

Hated hear of the issues that were out there because the racing was great. Tight packs with clean running was the order of the evening. There was a Brindle sighting, Bada was quick as well, saw a few different winners on the night but could not make it there myself. Biebs74 had a good showing as a relative new guy to these events, but is a regular at Bostons Saturday night event. Overall nice size crowd with some serious depth. The event lived up to my expectations overall which is saying a good bit because I was really fired up for this.

Thanks, BakedTuna, I had a great time last night. I got passed quite a bit, as expected, but what a fantastic group of guys to race with, I could not expect cleaner racing than that. I know I made a couple mistakes and bumped a couple people, nothing major, but again everyone was real cool about it. I can't wait to race with you all again!

Thank you to Hotstepper for hosting, and congrats to bada!

Great job Stepper.
Hope you run another one sometime, and I can make it into more races.
