HC Racing IndyCar Manager 2008


Welcome

Well, here it is, the IndyCar Series 2008 Manager. It will be run under the HC Racing banner, which I've in the past used for my weblog. The Champ Car World Series has now closed down and several teams/events have joined the IndyCar ranks. This only happened a couple of weeks before the season start, meaning I was not able to create this game any earlier. But what a season we have in store. Some of the most fantastic tracks are on the calendar and there's a bunch of cars ready to go racing at Miami. The rules will now be explained.

The Rules

In the IndyCar Manager game you have to choose eight drivers. The drivers can be picked from seven groups of three drivers and one of four drivers, this means you can't choose two drivers that are in the same group. You will score the same amount as points as your drivers get. The points system is the same as in the IRL.

Code: Select all

Place  	                 Points 
1st  	                   50
2nd  	                   40
3rd  	                   35
4th  	                   32
5th  	                   30
6th  	                   28
7th  	                   26
8th  	                   24
9th  	                   22
10th  	                  20
11th  	                  19
12th  	                  18
13th  	                  17
14th  	                  16
15th  	                  15
16th  	                  14
17th  	                  13
18th  	                  12
19th  	                  12
20th  	                  12
21st  	                  12
22nd  	                  12
23rd  	                  12
24th 	                   12
25th 	                   10
26th 	                   10
27th 	                   10
28th 	                   10
29th  	                  10
30th  	                  10
31st  	                  10
32nd  	                  10
33rd  	                  10

Three points are awarded to the driver who leads the most laps in each race.
We've chosen to use the 25 drivers on the entry list of the first race that are running the entire season. If more join later in the season they will NOT be added to the game. Also at this moment the Edmonton event still needs a date on the calendar. Two events which will not count towards OUR manager game are Surfers Paradise (non points race) and Long Beach (will be run with old DP01's).

At the end of the year the member with the most points will win the game. When your driver is injured, or has another reason he can't drive, the reserve driver will score points for you. Entries are open to everyone, if you want to join just post your drivers in this thread.

Bonus Points

In two races you can double your points, if you for example get 40 points it will be doubled to 80. Good luck on choosing your two events.

I would, but I just have so many other things to do other than watch motor sport.

I know F1 isn't the greatest of all the series out there, I don't even know why I follow it. I don't enjoy the races, I dislike some of the drivers, I hate the principles of the sport... :tongue:

Maybe I'll try and watch IRL this year. When is the first race?

Which explains why you picked AJ Foyt IV :tongue:
