Street Obsessions - Sporadic Races.


With SORL in full swing us here at Street Obsessions want to offer sporadic one-off races, that can range anywhere from throwing GTRs around Westhill to Rallyx within UF1s and everything in between.

This thread will be replied to each time a new sporadic event is announced, with time, date, cars, track, rules, etc. Each event will be come and race unless a sign-up is required (Say for a team race) these races will usually be one car, however sometimes it may be 2 or more.

All races will take place on the Street Obsessions server.

A news post for every race will also be announced on our website as well as here, along with results and replays as well: http://www.street-obsessions.com/

Base Rulebook


Some races may have their own rules set out (EG: Demolition Derby races) however for races that do not a base rulebook is listed below:
  1. No intentional contact
  2. Respect Flags
  3. No corner cutting
  4. No hacks/cheats/vob mods (doing so may lead to a permanant ban from any SO event)



Street Obsessions - Sporadic Race #1 - Jokkis (Aka: Folkrace)


RACE WILL TAKE PLACE ON THE 27TH OF JANUARY 2018


Our first sporadic event we want to start off with a bang, so due to this we've decided to start with Jokkis (Aka: Folkrace) a inexpensive, entry level form of Scandinavian rally cross.

The event will take place across 5 heats (7 laps) & 1 final (10 laps) with races having no specific starting order.

The track itself is a replica (with a few edits) made by Sindre Silva of Kalvholmen Folkrace track situated in Sweden.

The race itself will start at 18:00 GMT and last approximately 40 minutes (all heats and finals). (18:00 -> 18:50/19:00) after the race has finished we'll put on a few short sprint races (3 Laps) for those who want to stay on a little longer.

The car used for this race will be the XF GTI (XFG)





Rulebook


Due to the kind of racing a different style rulebook will be made. As Rally cross is a close, slightly filled with contact formula we're expecting accidental contact to happen a lot, that's just rallycross.

1. No INTENTIONAL contact (we understand mistakes happen)

2. If you roll and land off the track (or out of the raceway: eg beside the road) you don't have to shift+p

3. Pitgate will be shut before races (so spectating or pitting means your out)

4. No corner cutting allowed. (most turns are marked

5. Strictly no WW.

Track is loaded on the Street Obsessions server (will be unloaded for SORL on the 24th then return afterwards)

Trailer!


Here is a quick roll compilation (35s) made by ItzSe4n:

Quote from Racon :Awesome event, thanks guys for running it. Nice vid too Smile

Knew the banger round would be entirely your thing though! Was a tonne of fun running it, will look for other folkrace layouts and see if we can piece together another, maybe even a flat replica of it!
Whats next for SOSR?


Something is in the works right now. For hopeful running on the 27th of May. Stay tuned as its going to be... Aggressive.



SOSR - RACE 2 - MAYhem (Banger-ish racing)

27/05/2018 @ 18:00 BST (19:00 / 20:00 in various parts of the EU)


No sign-up needed, join Street Obsessions Racing on the night to join!

SOSR IS BACK, THIS TIME BIGGER THAN EVER.

Feel like getting some aggression out on LFS drivers? Or just trying your hand at derby style races. This SOSR event is for you, crash bash or race your way to the finish line.

Its up to you to figure out how you'll race in ever adapting, chaotic environments with
our next race being a harp to the cheaper, more destructive form of motorsport, banger racing. With this one bringing some LFS Adaptations of races from the classic destruction derby game, Driven To Destruction *(Test Drive; Eve of Destruction in some countries)*

The cars being used for this event are the GTi classification of cars (XFG+XRG)

Of course no banger race wouldn't be complete without the normal Oval Races, our oval for this race being a 85% gravel 15% Road oval.

In the spoilers I've put pictures of each track with a description of what they are (At the bottom of the post)

RULES - A MUST READ

1. "The only places where WW is allowed are marked with red chalk i.e. corners." (No WW allowed in JUMP races)

2. Pinning, blocking or intentionally preventing a driver from racing in a fair manner for a significant amount of time is not allowed.

3. Races will only restart if there is lag on first lap of a race.

4. No changing of cars allowed at any time during the meeting.

5. Passengers are not allowed in cars at any time in the meeting. (Additional Weight is banned)

6. You must go forward at the start of a race. Any intentional braking on grid or reversing off grid is not allowed (this does not include the DD).

7. No pitting and rejoining any races.

8. You must spec in the DD if you are either rolled or your clutch dies.

9. No constantly turning around to re-do the fig 8 in fig 8 races

10. In any race that isnt the DD if you roll you dont have to pit or spec, you are able to be unflipped by other cars, same goes for clutch death in anything that isnt the DD, if your clutch dies in a race (non DD) you can stay on the track.

11. No cheats, hacks, VOB mods and crash mods at ANY time.

12. Pitting or spectating at ANY TIME during a race is an instant DNF from that heat.

13. As this is a banger race we'll hold the right to deny a driver entry on the event IF THEIR PING can cause issues (EG: Heavy crash pinging, frequent ghosting, etc)

Races will be ran in the following order;

OVAL ROUND 1 - 10 laps - Approx 7m
OVAL ROUND 2 - 10 laps - Approx 7m

The Oval
Spoiler - click to reveal

What can be said about the classic oval? You go around it in a clockwise direction to win, the only hard part with this one is the gravel to tar to gravel switch. Watch out on the corners between the red chalk, drivers are allowed to wrong way there.



The Whip Round Race
Spoiler - click to reveal

This track is a stretched and halved figure 8 in a sense, if it was squashed back together with glue it'd be a figure 8, this one however has an entry ramp on one side and an exit on the other, the middle, mainly ramps, find your own way through and avoid other cars coming the opposite direction. Easy right?








The figure 8.
Spoiler - click to reveal

Much like the oval I cannot say much to it, its a plain fan classic, like the oval but it crosses in the middle to make a 8 shape that drivers must race across.






The Jump Race.
Spoiler - click to reveal

Our clear favourite here at Street Obsessions, the jump race is set on full dirt around a curcuit inspired by Driven To Destruction's Woodley Jump Race configuration. Everywhere is a spin opportunity and rolls a-plenty if you pit someone across a ramp.

Suspension needs to be soft too for the cushioned landings.












The Demolition Derby Arena
Spoiler - click to reveal
A simple DD arena, cars can be totalled by rolling them over the armcos at every corner. Good luck.


I'll be running a few jump race sprints tonight as well on Street Dedicated! Come join!

This post details the finishing standings of each race, along with some comments where appropriate, and the result of the demolition derby.


Race 1 - Oval Track Heat 1


Race 2 - Oval Track Heat 2


Race 3 - Figure 8 Heat 1


Marty got a penalty for jump-starting because he accidentally released the clutch. We cleared it because he waited for the start lights.

Race 4 - Figure 8 Heat 2


Race 5 - Suicide Race Heat 1


Race 5 was quite interesting. There was a 30 second penalty for ST.GT! although he spectated later anyway therefore giving himself a DNF. Zonda was disqualified for using added weight in his setup. Bunny spectated, therefore DNFing, and Huski ran out of fuel.

Race 6 - Suicide Race Heat 2


Race 6 was also quite interesting. Sky spectated, therefore DNFing. GT4Tube managed to somehow jump through the barrier to prevent people joining midrace. As funny as it was, he was warned multiple times to stop doing that. After being spectated a few times, he was kicked.

Race 7 - Jump Race Heat 1


Within race 7, Muro was hit out of bounds, and GT4Tube spectated therefore they both ended up with a DNF. Zonda attained a 45 second penalty for jumping the start.

Race 8 - Jump Race Heat 2


Within race 8, Gegg jumped the start and was spectated, but the admins decided to restart the race to allow him to participate. Zonda & ST.GT! ended up out of bounds.

Race 9 - Jump Race Heat 3


Within race 9, Stealy flipped and therefore got a DNF.

Before race 10, there was a decision by the admins to change the schedule. We put the jump race last instead of having it straight after 3 heats. Therefore, the next race was the Oval Final.

Race 10 - Oval Final


Within race 10, Freddy DNF'd.

Race 11 - Figure 8 Final


Within race 11, both [R]Crea00tive and RZonda gained penalties but similar to Marty's penalty beforehand, we decided to clear them because they waited for the actual start.

Race 12 - Suicide Race Final


Race 12 was very interesting. Out of the many starters, only 3 people managed to finish! The carnage was really a sight to behold.

Race 13 - Jump Race Final


Demolition Derby
Participants are listed in order of going out so the first person listed is the first one to go out:
  • FLAME
  • SOR•R.McKenzie
  • [CSR] Swiftzz
  • [R]Muro
  • [R]M.Indriksons
  • [R]Crea00tive
  • pulse¦suki
  • SO•D.Karlsson
  • SO•Rzonda
  • SO•M.Evers
  • SO•A.Kairis
  • [OK] Osku
The final result was a draw between Bunny and Coyotek.

They both hit each other at the same time and flipped at the same time, therefore the admins made the decision that it should be classed as a draw.

Overall Thoughts
Overall, the event went well. Apart from some minor issue loading a layout at one point, and some arguing between some people in the demolition derby, the event went well.

Qualifying Results:

Notable events:
  • Alex lagged out at the end of the qualifying session. We waited for him for a while but he didn't rejoin until sometime later, by which point the race had already started.
Race Results:

Notable events:
  • dhamulle spectated at the end of the qualifying session and did not join the race until after the lights had already went out. Therefore, he had to start from the pitlane.
  • SO•Juntu disconnected.
  • 9397 disconnected.

Overall, there was some very close racing in the actual race itself and the battles were very entertaining to watch.
