30/5/2006: Here we Are at the end of this
nice championship!!! After 5 weeks of races the classification is
defined.
In Lavareef there is a little surprise, because Patte isn't a
rally driver, but his 16.86 is sufficent to give 9/100 to JR Zullo and
18/100 to Pedra, then the gaps became wide, Nixxo and Tony are respectly
at 32 and 43 cents!
In Monferrato JR Zullo e Patte made exceptional
times, JR made a 15.73 and Patte a 15.82. The 3° has a important gap,
Murano got 28/100, then on the classification there are Pedra and Tony at
31 and 32/100.
The round classification is won by ... the couple
JR Zullo-Patte, both with 55 points and 16 points of advantage on the 3°,
Pedra. They have also the same time, and the 3° time is Pedra's, with 4/10
of gap on this couple. 4°, 5° and 6° are Murano, Tony and Nixxo.
Also
the sub-championships are decided:
"Street" has a dominator
named JR Zullo. He won EVERY RACE on tarmac, 4 absolute victories on
the 4 tracks where the Formula was the best car and 2 victories with the
same time of Patte or Murano where the McTurbo was better. With 5
more points he would have the en-plein! With more than 30 points there is
the second, Patte, the only who arrived near JR on the street circuits,
and with a very big gap (72pts) there is Pedra, helped by a 2° position on
UC Park! 4° is Murano, with 2 podiums on the 2 last street races, then 5°
is Raska, regoular but with a bad last turn, and 6° is Marck, who made a
good 1° round and then had few time.
"Rally" has Nixxo as
winner, who made two great times on Ewil red and Concona that gave him 60
points, with 97.5 global points, 8.5 more than Pedra, who never won
but who had 3 podiums and a 4° place, and 19.5 on Patte,
the winner of Lavareef, quite good on rallyes but never the best. At
28 points there is Raska, winner on Arenais and 3° on Concona, but
with 2 other not-good times, JR Zullo and Tony are 5° and
6°.
"Time" has a regoular driver as winner, because a bad time
gives too much gap. The winner never won a race, but he alwais made good
times and on the 2 most important tracks, Arenais and Ewil, gave much to
the 2° and 3°... the pilot who used less time is Pedra! But for only
10/100 Patte isn't the winner, because he earned 4/10 on Pedra only on the
last turn, and JR for 25/100 is 3°, but also he earned 4/10 on Pedra.
Nixxo, 2° until the last turn, arrives 4° at 86/100, while the 5° is
Murano with more than 1 second and the 6° is Raska with 1.86sec.
The
general championship is won by JR Zullo with 15 points on Patte and 42.5
on Pedra, then there is the surprise Nixxo, 5° is Raska who alternated
good and bad turns and 6° is Murano, a good player but he used his
attention for other competitions.
JR Zullo: He was the
favourite and he won this championship winning ALL the street races, but
having some problems on rallyes, where his only good race is Lavareef. He
likes very much the Formula, he won 4 races on 4 with this
car!!!
Patte: The only
pilot who made times similar to JR on street, but equal as Uredi or a bit
higher than him. BTW His rally style is better than the brazilian and he
won on Lavareef. It's not luckiness that he won the Italian
championship!
Pedra: I must
confess that I hoped in a place on the 5, and a podium gives me a lot of
satisfation! Yes, I had some advantages on the other, because I knowed the
tracks before start and I knowed somebody's time before the deadline, but
I make all times without cheating and I think this position is right for
me. I never won in a track, but my worst position is 6°, only Patte has
been alwais on the first 6.
Nixxo: He is the surprise of this
championship! His experience was on the 2 seasons of the Italian
championship, and he didn't make great prestations, but on this
championship he won on the 2 strange tracks, Ewil and Concona, and his
victory on "rally" sub-championship is wonderful!!! He has only to do
better on street tracks to became a high-level driver.
Raska: A good player, he made 3 good turns
winning on Arenais and being the 1° of the 2° round, but he was signed-up
on many competition and in 2 turns he hadn't time, so he made quite bad
prestations and he arrived only 5°.
Murano: I'm sure
this championship wasn't his main objective, that's why he is only 6°, but
he showed he can do well in various tracks, also winning with the same
time of JR Zullo on Atrack.
Tony: He signed-up on the
second turn and raced seriously from the 3°, but in this few time he
showed to be a good driver and he also won a
round.
Marck: His first round was good, finishing 3°,
but then he had school problems so his GR time was reduced and his results
don't show how good is. I hope in next competitions he will do
better!
Daniele: A newbe at his first races, but he
arrived 6° in Monferrato and 3° on Arenais, a podium that gave him
precious points.
Robylu: I confess that I expected
something more from him, but he made a normal championship, without good
or bad races.
Buka: At the beginning of the
competition I thought he could race for good position, but I must say that
he alwais sent files and his position isn't bad. He has a 6° place on
Concona as best result, but I know he's keen on many other
competitions.
Giangy92: A player at his first
competition, he didn't make good races but he has much time to make
experience and became a good driver.
Mimbe: He played
only 2 round, but he showed that he isn't a bad player, but to have
a good final position is important play all the
races.
Pava: I think he used a really small time for
this race, but I don't know so I don't give
comments.
Cabral: He signed-up, but he played only one
round, making his times in few hours, then he hadn't time, as he wrote
me.
Sabba: He toke part to the first round and then he
didn't played, so I don't give a comment
Benia: As
Sabba, I don't judge.
I thanks everybody for joining this little competition and making him interesting and me satisfated. 17 players joining and 12 of them sent me at least 4 times their hotlaps, not bad for my first competition. Bye bye to everybody and see you here maybe next year for the season 2.
25/5/2006: The 4° turn has been the most
equilibrated, the players who made a good time on Cirlinda made a worse on
Concona and viceversa; Just think that there are 5 players in 4
points!
Cirlinda is a classic circuit where the formula is the best
car, and the best Formula driver is JR Zullo again! He won with 4/100 on
Patte and 7 on Murano, then there are Tony and Raska with 9/100 and Pedra
with 18.
Concona is considered a rally track, and here Nixxo showed
that his victory on Ewil was merited, he made a good last bend and he won
with only 1/100 on Tony and 4/100 on Raska, then there is Pedra with
11/100, Patte at 12 and the surprise of this track, Buka, with
14/100.
The winner of this turn is Tony, with only 1,5 points on Patte
and 2 on JR Zullo, then there are Raska and Nixxo.
The classifications
are getting defined: The general is dominated by JR Zullo and if he doen't
make errors he can win this championship. 2° is Patte, 3° Pedra, then
Raska and Nixxo. The "time" is dominated by Pedra with 44/100 on Nixxo and
1/2 second on Patte. The same thing of JR, he can win this
sub-championship but he has to make attention. The "street" is dominated
by JR Zullo, he needs only 5 points to be sure of its victory. 2° is Patte
and 3° Pedra, advantaged by his lucky lap on UC Park. The "rally" has
Nixxo at first position, with Pedra 2° and Raska 3°, but this one is still
open, because Nixxo has only 11 points on the 2°.
21/5/2006: Here we are on the last turn,
where we will race on my 2 last creations: Lavareef and
Monferrato.
Lavareef is a rally track on mud with humps, jumps and
holes, but the strange thing is the land, that's why it is ... lava! On
this game the car won't burn, but to make a good time it's necessary stay
on the mud. This verion is a modified version and it's more than 2 second
faster.
Monferrato is a road track on low hills with low slopes. The
parcour has some imperfections and dirty parts, as it is on real life. It
isn't hard, but you have to get well different types of bends.
This
turn will be the longest, the sum of the 2 times will be a bit less than
36 seconds, but it's divided in the 2 tracks and I think these tracks are
good for the last turn, so ... Good luck for the last turn to
everybody!
LAVAREEF
A rally track on mud, with humps, jumps and holes, and a strange location... a Volcano!
MONFERRATO
Hill road track, with low slopes and some imperfections, as in the real-life Monferrato
17/5/2006: Here are the result of the 3°
turn!
Ewil reduced is a strange track and the winner isn't a well known
driver: Nixxo made a good lap since the last bend and he wins with 2/100
on Pedra, who starts badly but with a good part on the bushes arrives just
behind the winner. They used the Yankee, as many players did, but also the
McTurbo was a good car if the driver was good, infact Murano is
3° with only 5/100. At 36/100 Patte who made a really good cut on the
bend at the end of the mud part, then there are JR Zullo with the McTurbo
and Tony with the Yankee.
UC Park saw small gaps, but they were
sufficent to write a defined classification. The winner is JR Zullo, who
shows that he likes the Formula, but Pedra had the luckiness and he
arrived 2° with only 1/100. 3° is Patte with 2/100 and 4° are Nixxo e
Tony with 4/100, then Murano is 6°.
Also the global winner is a
partial surprise, because for Pedra is the first victory! His 2 second
places are sufficent to be ahead of Nixxo, also he at his best GR
result, while 3° is JR Zullo again. Then Patte and Murano.
Just 2
comic things: Cabral sent me the times for the 3° turn before the deadline
of 2°, then he hadn't the time to try, and Murano made his hotlap 10
seconds after the deadline!
14/5/2006: This turn is more traditional
than the previous, instead of 2 strange tracks there are a circuit and a
track on a basin.
Cirlinda is a traditional circuit made with tiles
and adding step by step details to the land. Probably it isn't a technical
circuit, but it has an hairpin bend, a "slalom" in the middle and other
bends and I think it's my best creation because the land is nice and every
point has some objects. When I made it I didn't know what name
it could have, so I thought to my cats and I gave it their name.
For
Concona I copied the idea from "La Conca" of Benia, but I didn't make a
perfect basin, so the tracks is more difficult. To make the best time you
must use the edge but also sometimes cut the bends. This track gives
points for the "rally" sub-championship, that's because it's on tarmac,
but it's too strange for a "street" race. Obviously Cirlinda is a "street"
.
CIRLINDA
A normal circuit with 90° or 180° bends and a "slalom" in the middle. I consider it my best creation.
CONCONA
A track on a basin where edges must be used, but sometimes it's better cut the bends.
10/5/2006: I had some problems on making the
result of this turn because of my big doubt on Raska's Atrack's hotlap. On
the high part he used a fast and large line and he touched a pit-stop with
a wheel. The advantage he had is very low, but I asked to Robylu and Patte
and we decided 2-1 that Raska hadn't to be penalized. I asked them also
because Raska was risking his first place of the turn, and the second
was... myself! That's why I had doubts.
Back to
result: On Atrack JR Zullo wins, but also this time he
must share his first place, but with Murano who with a fast high part
reachs JR Zullo. Thirth is Patte with 6/100, then Raska who touched
twice the hay bales and 5° Pedra.
Arenais is a strange track and
to make a good time you had to choise the right car, that was
the ... onewheeler!!! The 5 persons who used it are the first five! The
winner has much experience on ice, in fact he won the GR Ski world cup ...
Raska arrives 2/100 before Pedra and 25/100 before 2 surprises, Nixxo and
Daniele. At 31/100 Mimbe, the other surprise, then with more than 6/10 the
others.
The global winner of the 2° turn is Raska, then there are Pedra
and JR Zullo, 4° is Murano and 5° Patte. Marck had few times and his times
aren't so good, and there is a new player: Tony. On this turn
his results aren't good, but there are 3 others!
Here is the 2° turn global classification.
9/5/2006: Probably tomorrow I will publish the result, but I have to
say something:
It's possible to use any of the 12 original cars of the
game
If the pit stop's street is separated from the track with objects
or different lands you can't pass throught it, but if it's delimitated by
a line it's possible to overpass that line withouth penalty, as in
Atrack.
To get a penalty you have just to touch a pit stop, not only
pass throught it.
Effects value can be free, also 0 is allowed.
I'm
writing this lines because I noted that the rules page is a bit
incomplete, I'm sorry if somebody lost positions...
7/5/2006: Here are the tracks for the 3° turn! Probably this turn is the most strange of all, because the average of laps of 2 tracks will be 15 seconds, but most of time is spent on one track, Ewil Reduced. This is a reduced version of Ewil, because the original was too long for an hotlap and now it's around 12 seconds faster than the first version. But it still remains a long tracks with jumps, humps and a part on bushes. Instead UC Park is really small, every lap needs less than 4 seconds and classifications will be decided with cents. Ewil_red gives points for the "rally" sub-championship, UC Park for the "street" one, because it is strange, but it is all on tarmac and it hasn't jumps or other strange things. I know that Ewil reduced is too long for an hotlap, but the other track is really short so in average it's a normal turn. And then I think Ewil is one of my best tracks, that's why I inserted it on this competition!
EWIL REDUCED
Track with humps, jumps, pipe bends, a part on mud and one on bushes.
Under Construction PARK
A little park where people is working . Avoid the stones for a good time.
2/5/2006: The result of the 1° turn are ready! As I thought JR Zullo wins in both tracks, but in Uredi he must share the victory with Patte. In that circuit Pedra makes a good hotlap and he gets the 3° times, then there are raska, Marck and Nixxo. In Countryside he makes the best times, but in 13 cents there are Patte, Marck, Raska, Murano and Pedra. In the general classification JR Zullo is first with Patte at 5 points. More far there are Marck, Raska and Pedra. But the battle for the first position is just started and Robylu, Murano and the tiny surprise Nixxo can still fight for a place into 5 (or 3...)
30/4/2006: Last few hours for the first
turn, but I already publish tracks for the 2° turn. This time they won't
be 2 simple circuits on tarmac, but... Atrack is an A circuit, with fast
parts but also 180° bends and 5 difficult bend on series, Arenais in a
circuit on ... ice! Ice tracks are really rares on Generally, and the
driving style is really different from other circuits. The deadline is on
the 7th of May.
For the moment (the moment when I'm writing this) I
received 5 times, but I have to say something:
Altought is possible to
send our times many times, if you don't have problems please send me them
once, it's much better for me.
Remember to rename also your tracks with
nickname_trackname, this avoids that I make confusion with files.
I
advise to use the ghost car, so it's possible to see own errors and make
better times. To activate it go to Options-Advanced.
I wish a good 2°
turn to everybody!
ATRACK
Quite fast track, with 2 violent brakes on 180° bends and a 5 bend series that can be really difficult.
ARENAIS
A circuit... on ice! Rare on Generally. Your driving style must be different from the usual and the winner maybe a surprise.
27/42006: With Mimbe, JR Zullo, Daniele and Giangy92 we are in 16! As
my optimistic hope, but other people can still join. Because of the number
on joining people is higher than what I thought I change the point system,
now 15 drivers get points instead of 10, to give the chance to fight and
enjoy to more people.
Moreover, I create 3 new sub-championships: Time,
Rally and Street. Time championship needs that you send always your times,
and who has the best global time wins. "Street" includes road tracks and
circuits (like Countryside and Uredi). "Rally" includes off-road
tracks, atipic tarmac circuits or mixed tracks (like Freezemix or a stunt
track). But the main championship remains the points one.
23/4/2006: Here we are! This evening, few
hours before Monday 24, the Pedra's hotlap championship starts!. Up to now
12 persons are joining from 5 countries. I hoped in this numbers of
players, but everyone can join after the championship started.
This
tournament is going to be interesting: there are really good drivers
like Patte, Murano and Raska, 4 semi-newbes like Benia, Sabba, Nixxo and
Marck that can be the surprise and Pedra, Robylu, Pava, Buka and
Cabral that can fight with the firsts. I wish everyone a good championship
and a good fun too!
This turns has 2 tarmac tracks, ant they are both
flats, but that is the only common thing. Countryside is a simple slow
track ambiented on the countryside, on grass land and with a country
ambient. This track is delimited by stones so it's impossible to cut.
Uredi is a circuit with a really fast part and a slower, with
straight bends where the lines are really important. Good race to
everyone!
I remind that the tracks used in this championship are
different from the tracks page ones, so use this circuits, else your
time won't be valid!
COUNTRYSIDE
A simple flat tracks with stones on bends that make impossible to cut. This is a slow and short track
UREDI
A flat circuit, that is quite fast. The first part is really fast, the second is more techical.
19/4/2006: For the moment 7 people are joining. I hope to arrive to 10 players, but if there are more is better for me! I changed a bit the rules page, now you have to send me the RGB value of your colors, but there still is the 20 colors table with their RGB value. Another thing is that this week tracks will be published on sunday evening and not on monday, and probably I will do this also for the other turns. Btw the deadline still remains at 23:59 of sunday.
16/4/2006: Today I officially launched the competition with a message on the english forum! I thank Robylu for telling me 2 errors: I wrote that Raska was english instead of Swiss and now you just need "Emure-Freezemix" to watch the replays, before you needen "robylu_emure" and "patte_freezemix"
Few laps for everyone, but the race has been interesting. in Emure Patte made a clean and fast line and won with 25/100 on Raska and 37 on Pedra. Raska made slower lines, Pedra hurted a sunk tyre. Freezemix saw a very interesting race: Raska won with 1/100 on Pedra and Robylu. Pedra made a very good line on the mud, but he hurted a stone and his last bend wasn't good, Robylu made a bad line on mud but the rest was good and Raska made a good line everywhere but he touched the wall before the finish line and he won for nothing
11/4/2006: Today the test phase starts! 3 days to see the mechanism of the game on 2 tracks made for this. I pray everyone who wants to play sometimes on these tracks and send me his files. I don't care the times, this is just a test and for the competition is not important! PS I wrote this page on 10/4 and translated on 12/4, so DON'T send your files, test is FINISHED!
EMURE
Simple track with narrow bends and inclines
FREEZEMIX
A slow part on tarmac and a bumpy mud part
