Call Your Shot Tournament sign up
Have you ever entered a race or series and thought "Man these cars are just crap." or "This track is my worst in the game." If only you could get them into your best car and track? Conversely, have you ever felt so confident going up against someone that you thought you could take almost anything, anywhere and still cross the line first? My friend, this is the competition for you.
In the "Call Your Shot Tournament" each participant would be seeded, much like the bracket below, according to their tier ranking. Then, the lower seeded driver would call out the parameters of a one-on-one hotlap competition. These parameters could include the car, build options, track, and maybe more! Then the two drivers will have a week to set their best one lap time before the loser is eliminated. We'll continue on from there until we have a final champion:

There are a few elements to this I would like potential drivers to consider before entering:
1. Please please please don't opt to participate if you don't plan to see this through to the end. Someone who just pops in for the first couple weeks and then drops out from boredom makes things worse than not participating at all.
2. Not everyone has enough races to be ranked in the tiers yet. That means you would just have to trust me to put you in the right seed according to what I've seen so far.
3. All the competitions would need to be timed events, one way or another. No drift events.
If you still want to participate, please post in this thread by August 27. I'll have the seeds and bracket posted by September 3. If there is an odd number of entrants, I might do a "play in" race of my choosing for the two lowest seeded drivers.

Re: Call Your Shot Tournament sign up
I'm tempted to do this, my fear is I set up the race and still lose...

Sounds like fun, I'm down. Having time throughout the week to do it will be good for me

Re: Call Your Shot Tournament sign up
Sounds good, I'm in. If any dlc car is chosen, you'll have to make sure the other has that dlc as well.

Re: Call Your Shot Tournament sign up
I could do this on my days off because I could better my time through the week rather than having to turn up on a set date at a set time.
Re: Call Your Shot Tournament sign up
Count me in for this. It means getting a LB time (which may not happen) but it'd be good if we could get to race against the opposing ghost, a la rivals.

Re: Call Your Shot Tournament sign up
Since 16 people gives us an even bracket, I'm going to close off the sign-up now. I'll have the competition rules posted in the next 7 days and then we'll get started. Thanks everyone for the fast responses.

Re: Call Your Shot Tournament sign up
I think it's up to the creativity of the lower ranked driver to try even up the chances a bit. Depending on what the rules allow us, I have a few ideas already
