BATracer, a free browser-based racing sim - anyone want to get a league going? - Page 2

Ultra Peanut · 11:30 AM

BATracer is, as stated in the subject, a free browser-based online racing sim. In short, you sign up, pick a series, and take the driver's seat. You adjust your car's setup during practice through an intuitive slider to find your "sweet spot," then qualify and either race your way to victory or flame out in failure. You set up qualifying and race strategies, determining when you push harder, when you pit, and which tires you should use in which conditions.

It sounds complex and difficult, but it's pretty easy to get a handle on it, really. The total time commitment per day is maybe ten minutes, if that, and it's surprisingly fun to follow the race results lap by lap. If you've enjoyed online games like Pimp Wars or other such games, I think you'll find this to be a somewhat more rewarding experience. Or maybe not, but it's worth a shot.

ChiefsPlanet Champions Cup is now underway!

To join, simply create a BATracer account, click this link, and enter "damonhuard" as the league entry password when prompted.

Current lineup:

Ultra Peanut - McLaren (Ultra Peanut)
Guru - Renault (Mr. Guru)

Dartgod - Toyota (Cletis Dartgod)
Kclee - Honda (Crash Kclee)
OnTheWarpath58 - Red Bull (Warpath Racing)
Jbucc - BMW Sauber (Jbucc Fuccingrocks)

Hurry, before you get stuck in a Super Aguri!

It's highly recommended that you do this while drunk.

Cletis Dartgod is in the house. Once I figured out the setup, I did ok. Best test time was 1:33:3something.

nice hot lap up

Kclee · 02-02-2007, 11:48 AM

So how many people do we need to start racing?

Ultra Peanut · 02-03-2007, 01:18 PM

We need 10 to start, but I'd like to see if we could get up to the 12-14 range or so before we do.

Current practice times:

carlos3652 · 02-19-2007, 02:42 PM

Anyone interested???

**Dartgod** · 02-19-2007, 02:52 PM

Heh. I was just about to bump this up to see if it is still a go. It's my understanding that we just need one more participant?

JohnnyV13 · 02-19-2007, 05:29 PM

This seems to be an odd past time for a tranny
