IMSA Cup is emerging here : http://imsacup.free.fr
Read the rules and the FAQs and tell me what you think about it.
See the scoreboard to know how it will work.
I know the idea of a cup is not new, but i won't do as Roy did : i will finish it !
Any remark, question, advice, or else is welcome.
It's a great project. I really like it!! I have a question. Why we must to race against the machine ( :lol: ) I mean they are very slow, they won't be a difficulty.... I guess
Why ?
Just because it has never been done in a competition before. :lol: :wink:
No, I'll do my best to create tracks adapted to the opponent in order to make him really be a problem for you, at least for the beginning of the track... :roll:
YES why he never finished it??
because
oh my its true, u never qualified
yes, because it didn't start yet :D
u can get a second shot in... soon
According to the fact that I already created half of the tracks,
According to the fact that Alain is saying everywhere that the comp will start soon (but it originally was supposed to start at the end of 2k3),
According to the fact that I still need a little time to finish and embellish the site,
According to the fact that I have to complete the rules and the FAQs a little,
...
There will be 2 IMSA Cups this year :!:
And...
....
....
The first one will start...
....
....
lemme see...
....
....
Sunday, 18th of May, 00H00 GMT+1 :D
And will end Saturday, 28th of June, 21H00 GMT+1 :( (but everything has to end sometime...)
The second one will take place during November-December 2k3.
Enjoy, :wink: :mrgreen:
i am sure every stunts pipsqueaks AND the stunts messiah will take part at imsa cup.
i am also sure to be able to beat anyone.
ugh, the times look REALLY bad for me, as it's the peak of my exam reading and taking. Maybe I will participate anyway, but don't count on it. I think it's a great idea though and I hope it gets lots of support. The only problem is that the rules are very unclear, you need to make it very clear, or I guarantee you that some strife will occur. Good luck!
OK.
It has been ages since I was a student, so I forgot the exam period. :oops: :P :lol:
If I start the comp one week before (May 11th) and let only one week for qualification period, then the comp will end June 14th.
Is it OK for everyone this way ? :wink:
i am only waiting for the moment when i will defeat Bonzai in the early qualifications :)
anytime is okay for me, i can play at night if its to beat Bonzai.
Wow, you're really dedicated... unfortunately I can't say the same: I won't dump my exams just to beat Alain. But then again, I wouldn't have to ;)
And if Krys does the seedings right, we won't play before quarter/semi finals, if we get that far...
About starting a week before, it's just a little bit better, but still terrible. I will try to drive still though, but especially in the last parts, don't expect me to make a big effort...
The rules are now clear and most of the tracks already done.
And I know that most of you have exams at the end of June.
SO...
IMSA Cup will start TONIGHT at midnight GMT +1 !!!
Be there !
Only one week of qualifications, so new deadline of the comp will be saturday, May 31th at 21H00 GMT +1.
and we are to send only one replay, before the deadline, happening next saturday?
but who has enlisted? is the table filled?
Wow. Deluxe track!! :D
We'll have a lot of fun around here...
Alain asked :
Quotewe are to send only one replay, before the deadline, happening next saturday?
Answer : No, you can send 80 replays if you want (did i say 80 ?! :shock: )
Alain asked :
Quotewho has enlisted? is the table filled?
Answer : no need to enlist. Download track, send replay. Quite simple isn't it ?
Alan said :
QuoteWow. Deluxe track!!
Answer : Thanks :D :wink:
Hey, it's great that we've started already, but I think 1 week is MUCH too short time for qualification. In the qualification race, we need to get as many people as humanly possible racing. If it only goes on for one week, many people who don't visit the forum so often will not know about it at all. Roy's qualification track lasted 2 months, and gathered 13 drivers. Only about 8 of them had joined after the first week, as far as I recall (assistance please :D) - but of course, if there are enough pipsqueaks after 1 week, no problem. Sending my first replay in 2 minutes :D
Sorry about all these questions :? But this one is purely mathematical:
Will the point of doing well in the qualification (e.g finishing 1st instead of 4th) be that you will have an easier quarter final? Otherwise you get in the easiest group by finishing 4th, and the hardest group by finishing 13th. So I guess the quarter finals will be: "A1-D2, A2-D1, B1-C2, B2-C1" - am I right?
stunts advertising: yes
no one will enlist more than who you know :)
hope a surprise at any corner.
GUYS!!! advertise on stunts to everyone you know and on your websites, put a link to stunts competitions.
I've just emailed all 2003 pipsqueaks who hadn't already been emailed, so please don't do the same :D - I just forwarded Krys' mail. I also added Ben Snel, Bismarck and a danish Stunts fan to the list, hope we'll see some of them :D But hey, email some other old ghosts also :)
1st day, 6 drivers :D
At this rythm, i'll have 42 drivers next saturday ! :lol:
The cup needs at least 12 pipsqueaks : 3 members per group instead of 4...
I'll decide during the week depending of the number of pipsqueaks.
About your replay : you take the lead by far !!!
But it's not a surprise for anyone I suppose. :wink:
dont surprise me
Krys, why someone should race with Jaguar? Porsche 962 is a little faster than Jaguar, so it'll be only p962 cup :( You should to think one rules that other pipsqueaks would choose Jaguar more often :idea:
i chose jaguar and i didnt drive to the max. i dont care what berth i will take. all I know is that I am heading to the playoffs and the superbowl final against bonzai joe
my time is on the results page

Yes, you are right.
Check an exemple of complete results page from the rules page. :wink:
damn i got a penalty :)
and my time is in red, everybody sees it first. psychonumeric presence.
1st week of competition is over.
Some good pipsqueaks didn't join the competition :cry: :
Akoss Poo, Argammon, pArAnO, ....
But there's 14 pipsqueaks, and that's sufficient for making me happy. :D
As a concretisation of the success, the comp now has it's own topic, check the 4 remaining weeks of competition there ! :wink:
I invited pArAnO, but he is with all the MeganiuM Power in IRC. I guess he is who deserves the Man of the Race prize. He is always there...
moved the topic here...
great admin decision.
But about the good pipsqueaks who didnt join: i am sorry for them but if this kind of world event simply dont interest them, they are out of here. And i dont care what would have been their results, because next time i will beat them also.
I am the world champion.
Either you qualified or not,
Either you joined the comp or not,
Feel free to race any track and send me replays for the new incoming part of the site : the "Racing for pleasure".
All tracks that are no more active in the comp will be available for race with any of the 2 IMSA cars, with or without opponent.
It will be a sort of "Permanent competition" on them.
But still with IRC rules, just the opponent rule is changed.
So, for those who didn't join, race and prove what you could have done on them. :wink:
A new site design is in preparation. :D
I think it won't be finished before the next week because I'm quite busy racing Chicago, Z25 and Miami this week.
you will race on all those three tracks? so your times will be weak
Well, as you can see now, my time at Chicago was quite bad.
We'll see tonight if my times at Z25 and IMSA Cup are bad too...
Who will be in Semi-Final of the IMSA Cup ???
Answers tonight, around midnight.
:lol: but u didnt play at chicago :)
qualifications in imsa are all written, since teams had more important things to do this week:
alanrotoi
bonzai
mingva or krys toff
ctg
he! why not!
Teams have more important things to do...
But team managers decided different than you Alain.
Cork choose Zak because BJ has deceived him in IRC. :lol:
Topic for those who don't race on it : "What's new in IMSA Cup ?"
17/05/03 : completely new site design
24/05/03 : "Racing For Pleasure" part added. It's a sort of permanent competition. Feel free to race and send replays. :wink:
30/05/03 : Links pages added.
All tracks of the 1st IMSA Cup are now available for the Racing For Pleasure permanent competition.
Feel free to race on them.
All competition rules apply except the opponent rule, so you can race alone now. 8)
Enjoy ! :wink:
Good!!!
yeah! wow! you almost lose against CTG
and you lose against Eddie Brother. :lol: :lol:
And Daffy Duck :P
