Generally Rookie Championship
"let rookies have their say"
GRC website
So, let's get started : GRC, or Generally Rookie Championship is a competition reserved for "Rookies", or more precisly to "Bronze" and "Silver" classes according to GRO rules, ie. rookies and also more experienced "amateur" drivers. So, all the good drivers are not permitted to race there, which makes GRC an ideal entry-level formula to all GR newcomers.

Calendar

So here's the calendar :
  • Trigger Park by AleksiNir: From 20/05/2010 to 26/05/2010
  • Xavelot by Paw: From 27/05/2010 to 02/06/2010
  • Fort Myers by Future Design: From 03/06/2010 to 09/06/2010
  • Chartres 79 by Mathee: From 10/06/2010 to 16/06/2010
  • Chivenor 2 by Bouncebackability: From 17/06/2010 to 23/06/2010
  • Masters of Dicrette by Crowella: From 24/06/2010 to 30/06/2010 (/!\ 25 km race /!\)
You can check the complete calendar and also standings and results here

So, how do we play ?

Well, as Generally is not a online multiplayer game, everybody have to play offline. But to simulate "real racing", we set up a system : The login system.

It seems quite complicated, but it is not that complicated, in theory, we could summarize this method into 3 steps :
  1. You login on the website (you'll find the GRC login link here)
  2. You make the race of your life ;)
  3. You send required files to grcchamp@gmail.com
But for more details, a simplified version of rules is available on post #2 of this thread

OK, how do we join ?

It's very easy actually, you just need to reply to this thread or send an email to grcchamp@gmail.com and give the following informations :
  • Your nickname
  • Your email address (to send your login informations)
  • Your nationality
But you can also sign up teams, as many drivers as you want, the only condition is to be at least 2 drivers, so basically,
I need to know :
  • The name of your team
  • The drivers of your team
Here will be the current entry list :

What files do we need ?

All files you need are available in this pack, actually it is a special GR copy for GRC, with tracks, cars, AIs, options, etc. well all you need for GRC.

Good luck !

Rules

This is the short version of rules, to consult full version of rules, go to the GRC sporting rules page in GRC website

Teams & Drivers

To sign up, just reply here or send an email to grcchamp@gmail.com with required informations

Drivers may also enter teams as long there are at least 2 registered drivers, there are no maximal limit, however, only the 2 best drivers each round will score points for their teams, other drivers and privateer drivers (= no team) will be ignored (see "points & standings")

sign up informations are available on the first post

Settings and races

Each season, we will have 5 "regular" rounds and 1 "masters" round (since s13, normally the masters are the last round of the season)

Here's the settings for "regular" rounds :
  • Race length : 10 km
  • Tyre wear : 12%
  • Fuel consumption : 10%
  • Fuel mass : 50 kg
  • Damages : 15%
Here's the settings for "masters" rounds :
  • Race length : 25 km
  • Tyre wear : 8%
  • Fuel consumption : 7%
  • Fuel mass : 100 kg
  • Damages : 15%
Moreover, drivers must use these settings in any circumstances :
  • Effects : 100%
  • Game speed : 100%
You must race with the "FR/13" car you'll find on the GRC pack.

You must also race against 3 AIs : I_Rookie_1, AI_Rookie_2 and AI_Rookie_3 which are available on the GRC pack, you must not modify them.

GRC events use the "login system", meaning that you must login, race, and send files of your attempt to be counted on results, here's exactly how to do step by step :
  1. When you ready to race, check your settings, go here and click on the link below, type your login and your password
  2. Then, download the .zip file and extract it to the GRC GR copy main folder
  3. Start your GRC GR copy.
  4. Select the track you've just downloaded, select your driver (IN FIRST), and then the 3 AIs. Start the race
  5. Before that the race start, you can save your game and modify starting grid thanks to Savegame reader
  6. When you have finished your only attempt (when the results appears), take a screenshot with F11 and save your game
  7. .zip your files (I need only .bmp and .gam, no .trk) and send them to grcchamp@gmail.com
  8. Wait for the results ^^
You must login here to race for GRC.

Points & standings

There are 4 standings in GRC :
  • Drivers standings : which crowns GRC champion
  • Teams standings : which crowns GRC Team champion, only the 2 best drivers each round will be score points for their teams, other team drivers and privateer will be ignored.

Hey guys... just a humble question... I dont know how the previous seasons had been but we only have 2 teams so far and so many single players (just like me)? Guess it would be nice and a bit more kind of identification with the championship when we would build more teams.
I would like to form a team. Anyone wants to join? Am open for any name and car colors.

Buka, me and SRT8 talked about making our team names and we came up with Racing Van Java. SRT8 approves the name, and so do I. So here we go! RACING VAN JAVA!

Indeed, more teams are more interesting it is.

BTW, Russians want to join in one team so this probably will be the 4th team.
