Supercup Season 3


Squirrel

Recommended Posts

Welcome to the 2019 Supercup

Start Date 20th May 2019 

Each race meeting consists of:

  • Race 1 a 10 minute race decided by fastest driver during the warm up. 
  • Race 2 a 10 minute race with the top half of the grid reversed dependant on the previous race results
  • Race 3 a 20 minute race with the top half of the grid reversed. 

Pit stops are not required but are likely to be needed in race 3, it's down to the drivers how you want to manage your tyres & fuel.

After each week, their will be weight alterations dependant on overall performance for that week. The points for the three races will be totalled up. Top half of the field will gain weight, bottom half of the field will lose weight.

The amount lost or gained will depend on the number of drivers taking part in that week. If there are 8 drivers, places 1-4 will gain 4,3,2 & 1% percent respectively, bottom half will lose weight using the same percentages.

These weights are cumulative but they can be lost as well as gained each week. The maximum a cars weight can be is 117%, lowest will be 88%

Supercup 2019 is a little over 2 days away!

The top post had been updated with finalised details and I have my spreadsheet all ready to go! @doubleg213 if you want I can let you pick holes in my calculations again if needed!

For those wondering how the additional weight percentages after each week will be calculated, I've created a handy table so you know I'm not just making it up as I go along 😄

Next race is pencilled in for the 3rd of June, there does seem to be a few who can't make that date though, I can change it to the 10th if it suits more people.

Table and new weights after week 1

Cheers @Squirrel 👍

Good night, was expecting more people though ☹️

Hopefully the weights will start making things a bit closer moving forward...

So sad I had to miss the first round and could not even mention I was not coming along. Had a very hectic day were nothing went as planned and things needed to be finished because of a huge amount of concrete delivery today. Luckily everything was done eventually but still gutted I had to miss the first round. Can't wait to make my appearance in the next round!

Brands Hatch for Supercup. Goodwood is better suited to older cars.

I don’t think they’ll be adding Silverstone before the date of the race. 

I can still add a poll but if most people think that Goodwood is no good for this type of event I’m happy to confirm Brands as the track we’ll be using. I know it’s not everyone’s favourite but it’s the closest track we have available to represent a GB race.

Brands Hatch for me, Goodwood is decent fun, but it's mostly flat out in a modern car bar a couple of spots and I'd expect it could end up very chaotic.
