Yeah I understand PK. I know I'd be annoyed if someone crashed there in front of me leaving no room to pass. I appreciate the feedback! So here's 2 modified versions GP 4 v2 - Removed the tyre line along the grass GP 4 v3 - Removed the tyre line along the grass and replaced some other tyre lines with red & white walls so I'd have more props to block off another road. The road hasn't been a problem for most people but I saw 1 guy go down it once and it's been nagging me since This PL is looking great

I hate tyre lines lol
Another thing what annoys me is lamp posts. R* should add more penalty effect when you hit them, and turn them into ghosts for the cars following because people seem to be hitting them on purpose all the time now knowing its just a little bump when you hit them but makes the cars behind flip and spin all over

I'm in agreement that tire lines suck (getting beached on them is annoying), so try and use tire stacks instead to define a corner. Plus, my mentality was that smashing up your car slows you down, so I'd rather hit a tyre stack than a stripped concrete barrier.
I'll test out the recently recommended (and edited) tracks ASAP, feedback and post an updated playlist....

If you happen to run my track, I plan on moving the CP at the early u-turn (checkpoint 4). This may go through a few edits to get right, unless Cuz wants to tell me exactly where to put it in advance. I'd like to have enough props to stop people sliding wide here, but have none left so CP adjustment seems the only way forward.

I don't think loss of control is a problem there, its that you don't see the full turn until you're into it, CPs will sort it. I'll have a look at your map later. Of course I want to tell people what they're doing wrong, its like my thing, I know its not that obvious....

Dammit Don, it's in the exact same spot as mine. Looks like we're gonna be needing 2 playlists. Deejay, I thought your Autodromo Puerta Perro we ran last night was a strong contender. Original location as well, I believe...

I did create a few tracks with this thread in mind, Autodromo Peurta Perro was one of them, I expected a bit of hate from the chicane section though - I haven't used the red/white colour scheme, I've used something from the construction set (the name escapes me atm (long low something)) so it lacks a little visibilty. One of them tracks you need to play once so the props don't pop up on you first lap. You left the playlist (which included your GP Del Rancho) - I thought all 3 of my tracks were contenders, I quote Ref from last night 'You can make a bad track DJ' - me 'So you didnt like last track?' Ref - 'No, I mean, I want to see a track you've made that isn't perfect'...
Now, I'm paraphrasing a bit above, and I appreciate Ref's sentiments, and it shows different peoples tastes. I preferred my second track out the 3, Ref the third, and here's you bigging up the first one. Different strokes for different folks. And @ Ref - 145ish tracks published, I'd be surprised if I was publishing poor races now. I tailor my creations with a specific audience in mind. If you want to see some 'car crash' tracks, lmk. I have some, for a different crew.
Edit. meant to say, Ref reckons you made that GP Del Rancho as a piss take - I actually think it's a smexy little circuit. So the jokes on YOU Cuz! MWAHAHAHAAA!

Right, I'm loving this so I'm gonna put together my own PL for us 2 have a go on. There is some coincidence of location because that's what it takes to get a 10 race/10 creator list at this stage. 2 are not what I'd call polished but are still totally raceworthy. Refs is one of his as yet unpropped ones because of location crossover, Gills needs a touch up on one corner and both maybe need some title/description attention. Deejays and Dons are new to me of course. I've left out Vinewood500 because, as good a race as it is, there's CPs I don't approve of and it needs editing imo. Any others in this list that might need a tweak can be counted on to get it. Will link the list once I've put it together. Super Tyre Stack GP- Nitty DonGP- Gills247GP6- RefusoGrape Speed GP (Tyres)- WorthsclioDune Buggy GP La Mesa- Swifty-dy (vehicle choice is not limited)Dockside GP- PKcrazieAutodromo Puerta Perro- DeejayB1874Vespucci GP- Cuz05East Los Santos GP- Speedster0595 Thundering Herds- Thunderfiend

Took me soooo long to get that post out that I missed the previous 2 posts. Was thinking Deej, that chicane could use some red n white stripes..... Well the other 2 might be better but I've not raced em so I dunno. Which would you want to put fwd? I'll put it in that list I just proposed. Was too late for me in the end mate, was gonna nick off before you started it but couldn't help myself. Once I landed in the lake after 2 corners, I knew I'd pushed it too far, lol. Saw I'd picked up a few likes, happy with that. Only turned into a bit of a piss take when I started propping it, hehe. Told Don I made it for him. Can't put it in the list tho, location clash with 2 that are in there already. Tbf, all 3 are very different but Vespucci is my entry anyway. I'd only consider swapping them because of the clash with Dons, then there'd need to be a reshuffle on others... Speedster has Paleto and Sandy Shores ones but the other Rancho clash is with Gills and that's all he's really got.

I did create a few tracks with this thread in mind Looking again at your list, I did see those other 2 maps. I reckon I'll still go with no.1, lol. Got dizzy just looking at Sandy Shores and thought Sepong looked longish.... Tbh, I actually thought I might like Sepong best.... I might put it in instead since Ref likes it, looks a nice variation for my list. Ah, but does that very early tight section cause traffic problems?

Post by deejayb1874 on Mar 30, 2014 21:56:47 GMT
Does the tight section at the start cause traffic issues? I guess, if you raced it with randoms and/or people that don't know the track. As for the length, it's 2.5 miles long but it's a fast track - lap times were around 1.57 last night.
I tried long striped concrete's at the chicane but they don't jut out enough into the road for my liking. I could spin the long low SHUTTERING around 180 degs, it does have red vertical bars on the other side, but if you bounce into it it'll be painful.
As for Sandy Shores Momentum, well, from the title you can see where the inspiration came from, heavy use of striped concrete/tyre stack. Short straights, lots of corners, quite technical, my sort of race, hence the favoritism on my part. It's your playlist dude, so I guess the choice is yours.

LOL Cuz - your message makes sense now I bet it's covered with 50 Tyre lines !! you can also remove my GP from the list if it clashes cos mine was also a piss take however if you feel it's good enough to race then keep it in personally I'm not sure ??

Post by Cuz05 on Mar 31, 2014 11:59:15 GMT
Have to say Don, that's not the list, its just my list of GPs to try with an extra angle to see if the 10 creator plan is workable at this stage. I'll be deferring to whatever PK reckons in the end, I'm just too keen to wait, lol. I'll certainly tell you if I think yours works, thought the map held promise.

Deej - Seriously don't think I've had a complaint about props/CPs on your tracks. Except when you block corner cutting lol. I thought we were talking about Don's track when I said it was a piss take because of the tyre stacks everywhere lol. Thought Cuz's track was great
Cuz - I was planning to extend those races since they're too short? Was going to try and get them around 1.4 - 1.5 miles

Post by Cuz05 on Mar 31, 2014 19:20:50 GMT
Personally think short is alright, I like short. Don't think I'd want to race a list where all the laps were the same sort of length. 1 of yours verges on too short but look at PKs Del Perro, that's not exactly endurance.
Not a piss take? Didn't you read the description or clock the tyre stacked lamp posts? lol. I even put 2 stacks at the start so you have to sit there looking at them while you wait. Obviously I'm not gonna make a duff track tho, even if I am taking the piss... Glad you liked it.
Tbh, it was a sensible build and then I decided to milk the props a bit, looking at certain of our crew as I did so....

Disgraceful lack of patriotism. Hehehe - I can't help it! I blog for an American Football website and they force me to write and spell like an American, so its messes me up at times... That's also why I've been AWOL, it's approaching the NFL Draft and I've had a lot on my plate. Will make some time tonight to test the updated and new tracks, tinker with the playlist, and share again! Also, sorry for not hooking up with you fellas when I was on last night - was just on to p*ss about last night rather than some focused racing (that's paraphrasing for I wanted to KILL not race last night)

Hey guys, If you think my Eastern Los Santos GP is going to clash location-wise with Gills East LS GP, I have another submission that needs feedback. rsg.ms/QHnbiHReally quick high speed track. Cheers

Cheers I think they're quite different in the way they flow myself and its gonna be difficult to get 10 locations from 10 guys. I'll have a spin on your other when I can.

Deejay!!! That CP I missed on Sandy Shores Momentum, fairly sure it was 13 (could've been 22) but do not fear! I missed it because I just cut the turn too much. Doesn't look from the map as if there is a stack on the inside of it so maybe it could use one... still, it was driver error, not track design. I know I said the map made me dizzy but it's a good race, really liked it. Thought Sepong was a tiny bit awkward with all the central reservations. 1st turn, yeah, it worked ok but I'm still not a big fan of funneling a crowd into something like that early on. Nice race tho, not as high speed as it looks from the map and it's got some very nice sections. Would probably approve it Still prefer Autodromo Puerta Perro of the 3 tho, particularly since I won it, ahem, cough, cough....

Right, looking at this again. The list I put together has more location crossover than I thought so I'll have a switch around. Speedsters Paleto bay one looks like it'll work out, Deejay has some other o ptions, as do I. Hopefully have a test of some of these races later....
Dockside GP- PKcrazie Super Tyre Stack GP- Nitty Don Sandy Shores Momentum- DeejayB1874 East LS GP- Gills247 GP6- Refuso Grape Speed GP (Tyres)- Worthsclio Dune Buggy GP La Mesa- Swifty-dy Richman/Morningwood GP- Cuz05 Grand Prix of Paleto Bay- Speedster0595 Thundering Herds- Thunderfiend

Okey dokey, we had a run of the GP list I put together the other day, it's a good list. There are a couple of minor changes I'm going to make to it next time I get online, mainly because I felt bad about chopping out Speedsters (location clashes, pah). Also because I thought my entry was a little too bumpy and Deejay has made a cool new one that fits in nicely. So it'll be 11 races instead of 10, the planned changes will leave it looking like this- RRR GP Super Tyre Stack GP - NittyDon East LS GP - GillsGP 6 - RefusoGrapespeed GP (Tyres) - WorthsclioGrand Vinewood Circuit - ErnstJGP Del Rancho Ampliado - CuzLa Mesa GeeP - SwiftyDockside GP - PKCrazieMorningwood Momentum GP - DeejayEastern Los Santos GP - SpeedsterThundering Herds - Thunderfiend
