    British Tourers Racing Strategy Game

    This series is inspired by BTCC racing, roughly based on the late 90's, early 2000's, it does not simulate any particular season - though some cars and championship calendar were taken from the 2002 season.
    This is a legacy carset dating back to BATracer v2.x.

    Multiple Classes

    In BATracer v2.x, the BTCC carset was unique in supporting multi-class racing. Your world ranking is credited with wins regardless of which class you win in. The multiple classes effectivly make two separate series - if you play a BTCC game more than once we urge you to try out a different class nex time you play. They are quite a different experience and require different skills and strategies to succeed!

    Format

    Single lap qualifying decides the starting grid for a short sprint race with no pitting.

    The second race is a longer feature race, requiring one mandatory pitstop. Qualifying order for this event is determined from a short multi-lap qualifying session.

    Points

    For each race, the following points are available:

    1st - 15
    2nd - 12
    3rd - 10
    4th - 8
    5th - 6
    6th - 5
    7th - 4
    8th - 3
    9th - 2
    10th - 1

    Pole - 1 bonus point
    Fastest lap - 1 bonus point
    Most laps led - 1 bonus point

    Special Notes

    There are two separate classes in this BTCC championship. Though these split classes are meant to simply share the circuit and not get involved with one another, it is inevitable that sometimes two cars from a different class may hold one or the other up - or in the worst case, actually collide!

    The lower "Production" class is based on more regular machinery. By contrast, the Touring class are much more like genuine racecars. The result is that a badly setup touring car can suffer a lot more than a badly setup production car which has fewer parameters. Changes in weather can also effect production class cars less.

    BTCC (which this carset is based on) is sometimes criticised for manufacturing racing - trying to be a "show" first and a sport second, with safety cars being deployed all too willingly to close the field up, and "success ballast" applied to successfull drivers making it very difficult for them to win in the next round. Currently the game engine does not support success ballast, but frequent safety cars are a feature and can often be a factor in the short races.
