For the Christmas events this year, Street Obsessions decided to offer some fun to players that don't necessary have the time to join online events or events that have a set date (Like me). We then decided on a trio of competitions that you, the player, can do in your own spare time! All the events will run all the way till December 31st 2016. Let's have fun!


Okay i'll admit, this last one is Gigantic. [TC] wouldn't be [TC] without LFS. It's pretty straightforward that we have to at least have 1 event representing our game. This is a classic autocross layout that i'm sure everybody will enjoy.

Maximum Yard by UnknownMaster21. It's a 25.5KM track made around Westhill.

As always, here are the rules:

- Player has to complete a full lap around "Maximum Yard" in the fastest time possible
- Player can only use TBO cars (XRT, RB4, FXO)
- Player has to provide a valid replay to enter the competition
- Player has to keep a valid racing line at all times. 2 Wheels must touch the Road at all times.

- Players have to submit their entry before December 31st 23:59 EST
- Winner will be the fastest

The winner of this competition will be awarded 20$CAD in Steam credits.
A minimum of 10 participants is required for the prize to be given away.

Done this a few times already, hopefully that'll be an advantage. Tongue

But a really track, look forward to it! One question: Are we submitting replays in this thread?

Supposedly, yeah.

RE: CES2016 - SO - Longest Autocross EVER - Pete - 2016-12-05 22:41

Seb, I think you need to add a new rule:

You must have at least 2 wheels on tarmac at all times

There are far too many places on this lap where people can cut straight over grass/kerbs.

Only once (accidentally) I cut across a small section of grass. Otherwise when I was on the grass it was understeer.

Yes! You can submit your times here.

Indeed. New rule added.

Do the kerbs count as track as they normally would? Does the lap have to be from a stand still?

RE: CES2016 - SO - Longest Autocross EVER - Pete - 2016-12-07 00:33

I would say kerbs are ok since they're usually part of the drivable route. The lap has to be from a standstill. There's no way I'm doing a 15 minute outlap Tongue

RE: CES2016 - SO - Longest Autocross EVER - Sam - 2016-12-07 00:34

Hopefully it is from a stand still, still not sure what car is quickest

RE: CES2016 - SO - Longest Autocross EVER - Pete - 2016-12-07 00:38

The FXO should be the fastest.

RE: CES2016 - SO - Longest Autocross EVER - Sam - 2016-12-07 00:53

Tires can get pretty warm, XRT is faster out of the hairpins and at the start it looks like from driving with Renegade, tires also cope better

RE: CES2016 - SO - Longest Autocross EVER - Pete - 2016-12-07 01:32

Nick did a 15.59 with the FXO on his 2nd try. His tyres were hot, sure but with practice he could go a lot faster.

RE: CES2016 - SO - Longest Autocross EVER - Sam - 2016-12-07 02:33

Yeah I got a 15:54.00 with the FXO before with clipping a buggy wall and loosing a few seconds, I still feel the XRT may be able to go quicker

Sam Wrote:Kerbs? Standstill?

The lap is from standstill.
Kerbs are acceptable. As stated: "Player has to keep a valid racing line at all times."

Good luck!

16.25 on the second attempt, with an XRT, won 30 sec compared with the first one. However, I have some doubt on "where can I be some tenth faster?"

Can I have a look at the replay ? I did 16.25 and I can't go faster, I don't know why... I know he's a good driver, then that's why I wanna have look at his driving techniques. Smile

Btw, my FFB smells hot, I should stop for today Angel

So it'll be awesome if people would participate, right? I mean, don't you want that extra 20$ in your Steam account for boxing day sales? It's all up to you.

Good job to everybody that participated. Unfortunately there were not enough participants for the grand prize to be given away.

Better luck next time!
