Offical Tourst Trophy Street Series rules

http://xs208.xs.to/xs208/06432/TTSS.jpg (http://xs.to)
thanks, CELTIC!

How to compete: every race will be held in TT Mode > racing

replays will be required for the podium finishers and will be greatlly appercatited, but not nesacary, from everyone off the podium. to get a replay onto your pc you will need a compatable usb flash card. simply save the replay to the memory card, then in replay theatre on the main menu. select the transfer replay from memory card to usb option (second or thrid icon from the bottum iirc) then upload the replay.dat file to http://www.ttbikesim.com/community/ replays can be vareifed by anyone, but, only callaghan and myself maye disqualify a replay. if a PAL user has issues with another PAL replay, then please send a private message to me (es nes or callaghan) with pictures and a brief report of the problem and ill look into it.

Failuire condictions and automatic/manual shifting are up to the riders prefernce. however, everyone must use pro mode controller setting to ensure everyone has the same base level grip.

running way off track, even on pavement, will be considered the same as running way off course on to dirt/grass. if you are uncertain, please feel free to ask. also, no cone killing. curbing is usually fine, but, cutting turn 4 at deep forest for example is off limits. you can use the ais lines for refernce some times. refering to deep forest example again, the ai dont cut turn 4.

the ai ... you cannot hit the ai to move them out of the way. if they hit you while making a clean pass because they never adjust their lines while your around, then, thats a case by case. but, always try to stay clean with the ai.

Riders:
es nes
callaghan
CELTIC

A word on off going off track and walls: its fine to kick up a little dirt here and there on exit or from turning in too soon. but, the lap time/race will be disqualified if you go more than aproximately foot off track. you may not hit/touch the walls. if you crash, that lap/race is also disqualifed.

Setup and form to be used with that race will be posted as the first replay in the race thread.

Qualifing:
Since every race is will be a multi-lap race, i will be including qualifing. simply take the post form and set up to practice in tt mode > track > free run. since qualifing will be 1 lap, your qualifing run must be 100% pole clean. pole sitter gets 1 bonus point.

HAVE FUN!
:lol:

so far ive the form were going to use finalized as a good base and working on the moriwaki cbr600rr set up though its mostly finalized. im going to spend the rest week setting up the rest of the bikes up the rest of the week :)

you guys should be happy though, i couldnt figure out how to make the rear tyre really spin up on command through set up/form :P

+ qualifing

:)

i'm in :D you're not going for defaults on bike set up and rider form now?

re: my number for the next race bike series. lazy soul that i am, i cba to
get the #1 plate for any bikes that i might have to use so...

my old number 40, plus the 1 i got for winning the ttws gives me #41 8O

Of Course I'm in es nes :D

Almost posted that I'd take the #7 then realized how much of an idiot I am.

i am in too. can i have number 33?

edit: umm, yeah, i was just kidding about that number thing...:redface:

750, i believe that we are going to use a set rider form, in hopes that we can all understand what the different adjustments in bike setup do. but ill have to get es nes to confirm that.

well, since road bikes dont have number plates ;)

and, yeah, were not going to use default set up/form anymore. im, a bit a selfishly, using this to help improve what i know of set ups and form. Calla is also going to be seting up two bikes to add vareity in set up styles. :)

which is why i said the next race bike series :D

if you and calla sort set ups, could it not be that you may (unconciously, of course) set the bikes and forms to suit yourselves?

that's why default settings and form were the best way, imho :)

i told him to make them oversteer as much as possible :lol:

well in that case, tweak away guys :D

i understand where you are coming from 750. what i am actually trying to do is make them rideable for everyone. i believe that you will be able to adjust what you want, but we are submitting setting and such for people to try out, so those that arent good at setups, and those that cant get the bikes to do what they want, can get a better idea of what does what for the bikes.

or course, if you dont like how the bike has been set up, then, per the first post, you may change you rider form, and bike setups, as well as tyres...though youll only be able to use performance or street...and i think there really is no choice there.

hm ... did i miss something? :confused:

uhh, i dont think so, did you? at first i thought it was a 5 race series based on a set form and bike set up. then i saw that you asked me to set up some bikes using a form you sent me, and then i read the first post in this thread, and it says that you can adjust everything (it looks like you cut and pasted from the last series, cuz it refers to the 10 lap race at suzuka).

doh ... so i did. is there anything else i missed? :(

to be honest, if i am going to set a bike up for a round, i will try to make it as balanced as possible, meaning the bike will not be great on any one aspect. certain tracks match certain bikes, like the way i think the cbr1000rr matches motegi, because it can get off the corners soo damn well, and that is the key to a fast time (for me) at that track. instead of doing that here, i will just make the bike behave as neutral as possible, so different riding styles will have to compensate for the bike. the other thing i was thinking of is that i can propose a few different set ups to another member, whether es nes, or someone else (750F-RM ;) ) and let them dedcide, just so we have a different opinion. how about it?

thats fine http://www.motogpboards.com/images/icons/icon14.gif i couldnt give the moriwaki cbr a lot of oversteer, so i just tryied to make it balanced but still slip a little due to the seat position.

callaghan - just send me the set ups you think will work the best for the race http://www.motogpboards.com/images/icons/icon14.gif

sounds good to me. for what its worth, i was able to get the xjr1300 to be quite entertaining while still being fast. its definitely on the loose side.

Of Course I'm in es nes :D

sweeet! :D

Thats Cool I'll just take out the 5RS then ;)

no, not TTWS, TTSS :P

Yeah i know but do you realise how long that text took me to produce in Photoshop :roll: and 50% gone already :?

Best i can do for a one off :lol:

TTWS OR BUST :P

BUST Then :lol:

did someone say something about busts? :P

erm, sorry ... sure, that works :)

32D or 34C?

yes?

Sounds great! Count me in!! I think my rider form is within a few tweaks of being pretty good, but my set-ups suck ass. This should be an eye opener.

Been busy during the off-season...

18hrs into a 24hr endurance race at the Nurburgring in GT4. Running the BMW M3 GTR Race Car, in appreciation of the Hans Stuck qualifying video. I'm 3 laps up & basically just putting in laps & goofing off at this point. I wish we could so this in TT!

Also picked up the new toy shown in my avatar. It's aKTM NSR550: '88 NSR250 chassis, '91 KTM550 2-stroke single, 230lbs dry, just short of 75hp at the wheel. Should be a blast to ride! Previous owner said, "When the front end gets more than 2ft off the ground, just Shift." :eek:

nice bike man!!! do you race? wera, ama?

AMA? :roll: :hand: :lol:

I'll race it in WERA Clubman & Formula Old Fart, maybe some local CCS races, & FASTTRAX Endurance Races at Nelson Ledges :eek:

Mostly, I instruct for Sportbike Track Time. Did 33 track days this summer! All before I got the KTM/NSR though. :( Might take it down to Jennings GP the first weekend of next month though, if I get my not so pretty ebay bodywork & tank in time. :pray:

the first weekend in november...i might be going, that is, if i can get someone to trailer my bike there. (matt, you listening?) thats awesome. what is your fav.track?

Mid-Ohio, hands down! My first time there this year, after the repave, I giggled like a little girl the first few laps. :dance: Then I got up to speed & realized my let-off reference points were no longer there. :eek: Went 2.3sec faster on Pilot Powers than I had the previous year on slicks!

Keep me posted on Jennings. & let me know where you're coming from, in case I know someone coming that way.

i live about 45 minutes from i 75, i actually work at a shop called bartow powersports (http://www.bartowps.com). we are right off exit 288, about an hour or so after you get into GA. (from tenn.)

im off to bed...gotta work tomorrow, err, later today...

im putting an entry in for Matt W.

Yup, I am in.

Chris, after Roebling I am done. With the house and all, my "off season" is going to really be a off season.

DJ Baker, 33 track days?!?!?! That's going a bit!!!! I am jealous!!! :lol:

just to make sure, but, everyones expecting the first race thread up tomorow, correct?

are we doing the starts on monday, ends on sunday thing? thats cool with me.
ill get you those numbers tonight, im still working on it...just not satisfied with it yet.

actually, for the first week id like to end on sunday and then have the next round start the same day so that you kid dont have to wait for me to get home from my 10.50 hour work day ;)

i was asking when everyone was expecting the first race because weve not really talked about dates.

ok, put the first thread up, and we can start it on each sunday, and maybe have them end on sat. night? a week for each? will there be a set date for posting a qualifying time, or is it just a fast lap gets a point thing (in practice mode?)

today i hope :D 8O

today i hope :D 8O
Aye. Gonna have to be buying me an extra TV I think. Though mainly for Pro Evo 6, but that will probably destroy any hopes of leaving the house within the next month.

yeah, that sounds good. start on sundays and end on saturday.

qualifing will last as long as the race.

well, since today is monday, is the first round going to start this week, or next week?

in a moment?

edit - have you sent the fireblade set up yet?
