SkyeDave 956 Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 (edited) Come join us this final Wednesday in August for the World Nations Cup, an incredibly convoluted, complicated but ultimately rewarding format for a mid week nights racing. We will be pitting the biggest manufacturers from all over the world across 6 classes to find out who makes the fastest cars. As is customary the host nation, The United States, won't be competing as they are hosting this years event in San Andreas. Once you pick what nation you are driving for you are limited to using their cars over the whole night. Some nations are stronger than other others in some classes. Each nation is fastest in at least one class. It would be massively beneficial if you owned at least one car in each class so we don't have to spawn cars in. Also, a couple of the rally stages may need to be non contact. The most competitive cars are listed below but you can race anything from your nation if you prefer. We'll meet at the Pacific Bluffs Country Club. So check over the manufacturer list, pick your nation and comment below to sign up Any questions, queries or additional ideas for the night please feel free to post.

mulder 373 Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 I think it’s a stupid idea and sounds as boring as hell. But I checked my calendar and it turns out I’m free on Wednesday so I suppose I’ll come along to keep the numbers up. I’ll race for Japan 🇯🇵. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinnaker1981 974 Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 (edited) Great format. I Will make an effort to be online and up to the task. though, can I point out that the Deveste 8 is based on an Emirates car, and the Asbo can either be vauxhaul or Opel, which makes it german instead of GB. Also, no USA? Given that the USA has the most extensive list of cars in GTA, seems odd that they are excluded from this..😂 also, book me a spot in GB, because Portugal only makes footbalers, not race car drivers... . 😂 Edited August 23, 2020 by Spinnaker1981 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be great to have you along. The Deveste8 is manufactured by Principe in the GTA universe who are an Italian brand. They also make the Piaggio based on the Vespa and a couple of motorbikes based on Ducatis. It makes sense to include it because of balance in the Supers class. The Maxwell Asbo is far more likely to be a Vauxhall Corsa than an Opel. Maxwell = Vauxhall. ASBO is an abbreviation for Anti Social Behaviour Order which is something chavs in the UK get. Chavs who are commonly associated with Vauxhall Corsas. If it was a German car it would have been called a Asozial Verhaltensordnung which doesn't have quite the same ring to it. It's good to include it as British rather than German because any German is going to pick the Club anyway which would make the Asbo redundant. Deep Breath. Ok, finally. The USA. I've essentially excluded them because of balance. They have no even remotely decent super car, not much in the way of sports, no rally cars unless you start splitting Vapid UK and Vapid US. They have loads of Muscle cars, but no other country does. Loads of off roaders but Italy doesn't have any. SUVs, great but Japan don't have any..... Portugal may not make race drivers but they had their first MotoGP win today. From 3rd to 1st on the last corner. It was amazing. You should check it out if you haven't seen it already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfect explanation, I stand corrected. And, yes, Miguel had a good race, and Felix da Costa on Formula E did very good as well, but we are not exactly known by our racecar pilots, unless we can use Brasil as sort of Portugal... ... 😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Challenger001 70 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 (edited) Was just about to go for Italy myself! I'll take Japan please for now. Edit: should also point out i now have a working PS4 so I should be there. Edit2: AlexHat29 (you might remember him from the scavenger hunt) would like to show his interest (for Italy as well) but he's having an issue of needing to post 10 times before he can post in the VANS thread?

Alex won’t be able to post in the VANS section until he gets an invite to join. This will happen over time if his attendance becomes regular on Wednesdays. Can you smell what the Stone is cooking?

Eser1985 27 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Looks like a great event. Unfortunately I can’t join, I’m going out this evening to watch my little brother’s football match. Also worth mentioning that I will not be joining any events for about 3 weeks because I’m in the middle of moving house. Me and my little brother have bought a new house together and we are doing some renovations etc. So after I’ve moved to my new crib I’ll be back for more events. Hope you all have a great day 😎 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doubleg213 746 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Is the Schafter V12 going to be allowed in the Sports Class? Also, I though Germany was looking good for a decent result. Then I noticed Catman had signed up for Germany as well. Are we doing fastest two from each team in the results? As Catman frequently abandons races half way through and/or doesn't start to let the dog out/go off and shout at children/fetch alcohol etc. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
