I'm looking forward to how this turns out. Let me know if anything needs to be changed.

Hendo's attitude. /s

It's a fine RP already. Definitely will be following up on it.

I am soloing Anastasia's DNF, because she DNF'ed alone in her segment, so there is that. It will be a normal RP from me, but with a surprise of my own. ^^

And I am tying up an old plot thread from WGPC 17/NSSCRA 7...

My attempt at a domestic race thing with... very weird futuristic twists. Hope you guys like it! ♥

Scorination is very, very basic, with just 200 random times added together. There is a bit of a weight to the NSSCRA veterans, as you can see.

A bit of a throwback scheme for the Tier 1 #05 car. Why I decided on this color layout I do not know but it looks decent in my opinion

Would you like me to make the cover? I got several game mode ideas, including:

1. Story, where the player makes their own character who works their way up the ranks.
2. Free race, self explanatory, where the player can either use their own character(s) or use existing, canon characters with their own strengths and weaknesses.
3. Minigame mode, where the player, again as either their own character or canon characters, do various minigames of varying levels of humour and sense.

"But RMD, you ain't even in NSSCRA!" I know, I know, but I will be next season so there.

Don't forget challenges where you play a driver in a certain situation. See this RP I made last season for what I'm talking about.

Also, Amenria, are you gonna bring back your drivers from NSSCRA 6?

I was actually thinking of an entirely new person to send, why? Does it affect gameplay?

So you have been here before. I am learning so much today! ^^

From personal experience, obligatory not-a-host, but I suppose the bonuses go as a nation. I had a change of character for #15 (Jolyn to Anastasia) from NSSCRA 8 to 9, and the latter still got eh bonuses, so yeah. Probably only will change if your RP bonus points did not carry over that much from NSSCRA 6, or that you are entering as a puppet.

I am by no means an authority, so I just like to keep on guessing!

And a Season/ online career mode.

Also I came up with a challenge for Micheal Rush

Feel the Rush-
As a rookie in 2003, Micheal Rush posted the fastest qualifying lap in SINCS history: a 51 second lap around Perth Superspeedway, good for an average speed of 210 miles per hour. To win this challenge your average speed must be above 210 miles per hour

Reward: #05 Micheal Rush SINCS rookie scheme

Nothing should carry over from NSSCRA 6. That's way too long ago, and we didn't even have ranks back then.

If you look at how Tsering is doing compared to Rinzi and Qiang, you can tell there's no rank boost from NSSCRA 7.

Ahh, noted then. Thanks! ^^ Oh yeah, so I saw. It's just final results with the scorination.

I didn't consider the ranks when I asked Amenria lol. I was just curious if those old drivers will be fleshed out more.

Next time I'll have an ethnic Korean man who talks to his racecar. Until then..

There is no such rule. Fiona is in the Chase!

What if an open charter user somehow pulls off the upset? Would they get in the Chase?

I think you have to attempt every race

Last season, Gil Archer was suspended for a race, but he was still allowed into the Chase.

by **Newmanistan** » Tue Jan 19, 2021 1:43 pm

I just wanted to give a heads up to people that the next race is Thursday/Friday. This has been listed on the schedule and was listed this way on the last set of results, but it could have been easy to gloss over. This was done to coordinate with the World Cup's mid-qualifying break period.

Yo, hate to be the bearer of bad news but Vykta has CTEd.

Ohh, man, that's rough.. Always a shame to see inactivity. I wish them all the best, still, wherever they are!

Does this mean what I think it is? No wait... none of their drivers have a guaranteed charter.

by **Saint Kanye** » Thu Jan 21, 2021 9:56 am

Usually, countries have their charters stripped before they CTE. Ceroat (Lav's birthplace) was a notable exception.

And I know what you're thinking, and don't worry, I'm sure Caulfield will be put into consideration the next time charters get reassigned.

Someone's reading my mind like a book.

Though to be fair, having 5 guaranteed charters for a single player might be already too much, so I totally understand with that. AFAIK, including puppets, all the players have 4 max guaranteed charters.
