SQUEAKY Cars to race in NSSCRA with a team of two drivers #99 Mercy binayas and #59 Ashley Matthews

Thank you for your interest in NSSCRA. There are a couple problems here, the first being that these drivers are characters and the property of their respective nations. You could not have them drive for you unless you worked something out with that nation.

Secondly, the NSSCRA season is underway. I am, however, open to new nations joining the second tier, but I would like to see introductory roleplays as to the late entry before allowing the entry.

I find it a bit funny on how Jolyn's team made it into the team/crew contest, but Holly didn't.

It was probably because Jolyn was more well known, having appeared (and won) in a previous NSSCRA season, plus one WGP2 season.

....Among other things.

So, recently I've be searching for a few talents that could prove themeselves, been watching a few races from the top teams of NSSCRA, and, after pondering, I decided to give Chris Holmes and Tyler Abbot a second chance, albeit a tier lower[proposal=]

Hi There, This is team Squeaky Cars looking for drivers on the team, and I'm happy to annouce both of you are now proud members of Team Squeaky Cars.

I think Hap is doing a story arch with Chris so he won't be racing for a while.

[Hapilopper]

Chris Holmes is on the backburner. At the very least, he is done racing for the rest of the season and will either decline or ignore any offers given to him for the time being.

[Saint Kanye]

And Abbott hasn't been fired (yet?)

I have no time and speed to do for G6MR right now. ><

Ahh, maybe after the qualifications today.

[Filindostan]

#0's Zalada scheme in the race if the #00 does not qualify:

Would like to post here for my self reference and also to make sure I got the timings right. ^^

So err, this is Day 1, I will take it. In chronological order...
- Qualifications for 1st Tier.
- Qualifications AND race for 2nd Tier.
- VilBev Open Heat qualifications happened soon after that.
- Lao Long 380 is happening independently.

Day 2 is probably:
- Race for 1st Tier, along with Pit Crew Challenge?
- VilBev race to happen after that.
- Lao Long 380 race, again, independent of what is happening in Vil.

I am probably going to write my RP in this particular order, please do let me know if I got the timings wrong.

Welp Gordon just fell off the Earth

VilTur, is there a reason why I can't see Gil Archer in the Vilaye Clash qualifying? Just curious and unsure.

Qualifying is just for the Heat races. Gil is in the main event which the starting lineup is set by the rulebook not through qualifying.

So err, this is Day 1, I will take it. In chronological order...


Day 2 is probably:

ICly the schedule for events in the Vilitan Cove is this:

Lonngeylin, Vilita
Day 1 / Friday: Tier 1 Qualifying, Tier 2 Qualifying, Tier 2 Race
Day 2 / Saturday: Tier 1 Race
Day 3 / Sunday: VilBev Qualifying, VilBev Heat 1, VilBev Heat 2, Vilaye Clash

---- Travel to TROPICORP (Or, for select drivers, Skip Tropicorp entirely and instead go to Lao Long)

Day 1: Tier 1 Qualifying, Tier 2 Qualifying
Day 2: Pit Crew Competition, Tier 2 Race (AM), iRoS Round 3 (PM)
Day 3: Tropicorp 500


Lao Long 380 takes place concurrent with Tropicorp Day 1-3 events so drivers would only be present at one or the other



In hindsight, there is a lot going on this week and maybe if we keep the schedule the same next season we can do the week break between these two races to let everything else play out

Thanks. Like I said, I was not sure about how things were done in the Clash.

[The Sherpa Empire]

Having 3 races in a row where the track owners like running side events is a good recipe for a lot going on.

I'll probably be posting during the off week to catch up with everything.

[Valentine Z]

Sounds good, thanks Abanhfleft for the help! ^^

I have to retcon this

I had the list backwards for Season 9, Gil's pole was before the Clash last year so that + his win qualify him for the heats not the Clash itself. Luckily I caught the changes before getting results posted

[Xanneria]

Gwinnett is also hands of now, and if I can put him in a second car for Everlong I would.

I think Sword Island had a nice idea a few weeks ago in introducing a Nationstates Endurance Racing Championship, we could have someone else run this during the offseason for the NSSCRA - though the main issue here is how would it be scorinated? As if we used Xkoranate we would end up with everyone having crashed out come halfway through a 24-hour race.

[Smosh games]

So, which drivers are avaialbe in the NSSCRA second tier?

You create your own drivers.

[Smosh games]

So, I can create a driver, eh? Get to know Ryan Schumacher, he previously raced in the equivalent of GP3 in this game, managing a top 5 in the championship; as we all know from real life, it is a lot pressure just on having
a famous surname, and in real life F1, only 2 families had sucess(Hill and Rosberg), with many faltering. He appears to be a quick, but who knows wheter he performs into NSSCRA second tier? Only time will telll

Get to know Ryan Schumacher ... it is a lot pressure just on having a famous surname

Lucky for Ryan, pressure should be off. There are no famous racers with the surname Schumacher in the NS multiverse.

One way this could be done is through a custom built spreadsheet, like WGPC, although this may take quite a bit of time to make if you aren’t familiar with spreadsheets.

Margaret seemed a little more active today.

At any rate, everyone have a Happy Holiday, and we'll be back next week!

[Sword Island]

I am trying to walk someone through creating a nation. They are a NASCAR fan and when I told them about NSSCRA on discord they wamted to join immeditaly so expect someone new in around 30 minutes
