2015 Assetto Corsa Thursday’s Fun Cobra Cup: Mini Season 1

Time for a change and start to balance out Thursday’s Fun Runs

Mod: Mini (Step 2) Mod Download Page
Install "stock" version first, then "Step" version.

Points
Individual driver points in each race are 24,23,22,21,20 etc. down to 1.
Team points are the accumulation of the individual team member's points. If a reserve stands in for an absent team member, they score points for the team.
Each driver's worst round is dropped, and the worst team round is also dropped.
Fastest lap bonus: 1 point awarded at the end of each race for the driver who sets the fastest lap time.
 
Rules
* Track Limits. The AC track cutting penalty system will not be used. You must keep at least one wheel within the track boundary, typically delimited by white lines. This won't be enforced. It is an honour system.
* Redress. If you gain position advantage over another driver by colliding with them such that their car leaves the track, or by cutting the track yourself, you are expected to redress your position as soon as safely possible. Gaining position by "reasonable" side-by-side contact is allowed, but rear collisions must be avoided. This won't be enforced. It is an honour system.
* Track Re-entry. You must always re-enter the track with extreme caution. Any collision on re-entry must be redressed.
* Assists. Driving assists like ABS and TC can be used if available on the car. There is no forced driving view.
* Fuel/Tyre Multiplier. 100%
* Damage. 33%

I have randomly assigned skin colours to all, except Gratulin and myself...
There is word on the AC forum site, that they will 'soon' update the mod and include 'skinning' capabilities... but in the mean time if there is a colour that you would prefer, let me know.

YEOW!! or should I say "MEOW" I was hoping we had forgotten "Dick Power Painting Method", but it did hold you in good stead last season!
When the 'skinning' is available you maybe able to commission Dick.

on that thought... "Dick where are you?"  I'll send a PM, I think Dick is a "Mini" kind of guy.

With the introduction of some new tracks that so far have been given the "thumbs up" and with enough time to 'think about' the upcoming season to make it little different to what we have experienced, not to mention to make the "Mini Season" a little more interesting...

You will see that the season now has:
2 new tracks, but still retaining BIrd's and Wally's Xmas pressie tracks
A break in the middle, week 4
2 styles of races, 2 * sprints alternating on the next week with the balance of 1 * 20 race

hope this is as exciting to you as me :)

Good news others have noted the lack of "off throttle steering" and CCX will look at it for the next release...

And the Winner/s is/are of the "Cobra Cup's" First "Mini Cup"...

Congratulations.
Championship Results.

With the introduction of the the long awaited AC V.1.1 (and the DLC), it caused the temporary demise of the Mini Mod and such the management has spoken,  that only Mini Powered Rounds will be included in the Season's Championship points tally.

I hope you all enjoyed the season as much as I did, the Mini brought some tight racing for me at times, introduced some new tracks and overall just a pleasant night amongst like minded peeps.
