Season's Chat - CCC / Re: an idea for 2025 Christmas...

Thanks @Victor Narl , @Alain il professore , @Spoonboy and @alanrotoi ! :)

Quote from: Victor Narl on Yesterday at 10:19:00 AMThis was a challenging competition with an unprecedentedly tight deadline. I was only saved by having a lot of free time during those days, but I see that not all the riders were able to cope with such a short deadline, especially in the third stage, and because of this, the competition lost a lot of interest. Therefore, for future similar competitions, I would like to see a more lenient/loyal deadline, and I think other riders will support me in this proposal.

I agree the schedule was not ideal, which was largely due to us having free time problems as well -- for me in particular, things got much busier than expected over the last several weeks. My initial plan was having three two-week rounds starting on December 3rd, but it was not possible to get everything ready in time for the 3rd. I could have played it safe and set up only two rounds of two weeks, but it felt like featuring only 8 rally cars would be betraying the concept of the special event a little bit, ergo the unusual 2-1-1 schedule.

Quote from: alanrotoi on Yesterday at 02:40:17 PMI specially wanted to race the Citroën ZX Rallye Raid so I already made a test. Beatiful car, interesting accel/top speed combo, there aren't custom cars with this performance so it's welcome! One note to add, the ingame performance info for 0-60 mph it's wrong. It says "5.30 sec" when instead it is "4.95 sec". I bet we would extract its best potential in very close tracks, full of closed corners, like real rally tracks.

Yeah, it's a pretty interesting combo! It was nice to see the various sub-classes/styles of rally cars on the race track. Another highlight for me, which I hadn't tried before, was the Stratos Gr5 (IIRC Spoonboy had already noticed its potential earlier).

Congratulations @Victor Narl, @Alain il professore and @Duplode !!
I really enjoyed these races. A lot of tracks and cars. I didn't participate in the last race not of because of lack of time but because I hadn't in my mind the deadline. Thanks for making and managing this event!

Thanks to all for these great CCC races, and thanks to @Alain il professore for the nice words.

I am sad to have missed the deadline for the third race. In my case, it wasn't a workload problem (although 3 races felt like a lot!). I had all four laps ready, but last night was busy and I got distracted. I had some good times, not sure if it would have changed my leaderboard position?

Anyway I had fun with all tracks, and I am a great fan of CCC. I love the chance to test different cars I might not have driven before, and the change in rules from Zak/R4K is refreshing.
I have some ideas for a future CCC race, so I'll continue to work on that.

Great to race with you all. Looking forward to more in 2026, let's keep pushing!

Oh no! I got distracted and missed the deadline last night!  :'(  :'(

It's a shame as I enjoyed this track, though it was a tough challenge as @Victor Narl says. Quick fire, a new challenge on every corner with little rest between.

For the record these were my times:
Ferrari GTO: 2:09.20
Citroën Rallye Raid: 2:24.00
Lancia Delta Evo3: 2:22.30
LM002 Zapper: 2:56.55

So some good results for Citroën and Lancia which I'm happy with. But not enough to beat Victor, so congratulations to him.

I'm now working on my R4K lap, so I'll see you all there.

@Duplode, thanks for the congratulations. I didn't expect such success from myself again. You have created a very interesting and challenging track that completely deprives the opportunity to use the capabilities of PG on the Ferrari. There is only one drawback - the deadline for this stage is too short. I think such a complex track needs at least 10 days. Thanks to all the organizers and designers.

I would also like to see a new stage of the NTT competition this year.

Competition 2026 / Re: Custom cars for 2026

Quote from: dreadnaut on January 07, 2026, 12:14:44 AMAfter reviewing recent threads, here's my proposal for 2026:

- Ferrari Testarossa
- Melange XGT-88
- Williams Renault FW12C
- Chevrolet Silverado Monster Truck
- DAF Siluro Turbo Spec

And here is my proposal of starting bonuses for this list:

Screenshot_2026-01-11_03-52-42.png

The coefficients were worked out in the same way as last year: start from the end-of-season base bonuses, add the new cars at what should be reasonably competitive values relative to the others, and tweak the numbers so that the global sum stays at 176. A spreadsheet making those steps more explicit is attached.
