Cobra Cup idea/suggestion
« on: June 12, 2015, 05:20:02 PM »
Hi,

Would it be good to permanently run a Cobra race each week alongside the other Thursday Night Fun Runs? The idea is that we come up with a season consisting of the best mod tracks with a bias towards Australian tracks. The selection of tracks would remain the same for each season similar to a real race series like DTM or V8s. We could make the season 10 to 15 races long to accommodate most of the best mod tracks.

It would be good to run the Cobra every week  :) :) :)

If you want to simulate a r/l series maybe run the 'cup' every 2-3 weeks, with fun runs of different cars between?
'IF' we had the tracks we could follow the V8 season, on the actual week.
Done this elsewhere with an F1 season. ;)
(gives a good insight to the track subtleties when you watch on TV)

We used to mimic the V8 season in rF1, worked great, everyone knew when it was on and where. With not as many V8 tracks in AC, maybe the F1 might work better, but great idea!!  :P

I'm thinking I might put together a hybrid schedule between F1, WEC and V8 tracks to see how many we can cover.

Hi, Here's a sample of what we could do for a Cobra Cup series that follows F1 and V8Supercars event schedules.
