Reserving 4 sports for Flagler

WSCS 5 HOST BID

A forty competitor field will vie for the title of world champion over an eleven race schedule consisting of mostly ovals.

The scorinator to be used is NASCAR Racing Season 2003. Normally a video game/simulator would be frowned upon as a scorinator, but NR2003 provides a ratings system that gives the competitor control over how he or she would like his/her driver to behave at certain types of tracks. It was used in the previous two editions of NSSCRA with success.

HOW DO THE RATINGS WORK?

There are two columns for each category: maximums and minimums. The maximum is the highest possible rating your driver will be on a given race; the minimum is the lowest. The game uses an algorithm to randomly select a number between the maximum and minimum that will determine what rating your driver will carry on race day for each category. For most ratings higher is better, but there are two that aren't. Aggression is the first; it determines how aggressive your driver will be on raceday. The more aggressive you are the more prone you are to driver errors. Pit Strategy is the second; it determines how willing you are to take risks with pit strategy in order to win a race (2 tires or no tires vs. taking 4 tires, taking a half can of fuel vs. a full can, etc.). Again, gambling can have its consequences, so a higher rating here is not always necessarily better.

For those two categories you will choose both the maximum and minimum ratings for your driver. For all other categories you will choose a set range for each rating.

NOTE: When you see this part of the form:

Rookie?(Y/N):
First Time Participating in NSSCRA?(Y/N):

If your driver has never competed in a NSSCRA season, your driver is a rookie.
The second question refers to whether you as a nation have participated before in NSSCRA.

You may enter up to four drivers, but if it gets to the point where a lot of nations are signing up the fourth drivers will be dropped, then the third, then the second if necessary. Thus, please list them in order of preference.

RP BONUS
A quality RP will earn you six points added to your maximums across the board

A decent RP will earn you three points to be added to your minimums across the board.

A crappy RP will earn you no points, as will not RPing.

RP bonus will only count towards the next race.

CARS/ENTRANTS
There will be a field cutoff at 42 entries.

If there are over 42 competitors and the fourth/third drivers have to be cutoff there will be a support series (Which I'll take the liberty of naming it the World Late Model Sportsman Championship) run to accompany 5 races. Only one driver from each nation may run the WLSC.

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO PAINT YOUR CAR IF YOU DON'T WANT.
-If this is the case I will put your drivers' number and name on the car as well as your nation's flag. Pick your color if you want.
-Or, you can request a paint from another nation who are skilled with GIMP/Photoshop

IF YOU DO WANT TO PAINT YOUR OWN CAR:

For the ~~first~~ third time in NSSCRA you will actually be able to choose what your car looks like. There are templates available to paint on your own or you can request that I or anyone else who offers to paint them for you, which we will happily oblige. Email your car paints to whittoria@yahoo.com once they are finished. There are only two rules to painting the cars:

1.) No obscenities

2.) Numbers must be clearly visible on both doors and on the roof facing the driver's window

Drivers are encouraged to have a paint scheme that reflects their national colors or is in their international racing colors (Whittoria's have traditionally been white or navy blue); however, this is not a requirement.

POINTS SYSTEM

If all agree, a system that rewards victories and top tens will be used.

If the general consensus is against this then we'll use the traditional NASCAR point system used up until 2004.

And, finally, NO PUPPETS.

EDIT:

HOME RACE BONUSES:

-Nations hosting a race will receive a five point home race bonus to their ratings.
-Nations who do not host a race on the schedule will receive a five point bonus at a track they are rated best for.

We're using a new ratings system this season, so it'd probably be a good idea to fill out the form.

Signups updated through New Tebow.

If your driver has an italicised number beside his/her name it's because that number was used by a different nation last season. If they choose to use that number you must choose a different one.

If your driver has question marks instead of numbers, someone has already signed up with that number and you must choose a different one.
