Double yellow lines rule is the only road rule we will not follow so you can overtake on double yellows. You can overtake on all roads but you can't undertake (pass on the right). Thanks Diablo yes the date and time is not set in stone so once we know the numbers I will group people together for when you are available. We have to pick times when both judges are available that's the only restriction we have. The type of car is any supercar I will get a full list of cars you can use and add it to the first post at a later date.

You have keep up with the lead judge when possible. If anyone is holding up the group by going too slow and not stuck behind any traffic you will get a warning from the judge. So you can't cheat by going 1MPH. ;)

Sorry at this time there are no plans for the xbox version.

Sydney is UK time +10 so it would be 7am. If you join and you don't have a strong connection then you will have to leave and arrange a new slot. When people join they need to lock to the leader judge this will give the best possible sync for lights and traffic. As said in the rules the judges are aware of the problems and will let you off at their discretion.

It's not a race so the pace will be set by the leader judge and everyone follows one behind the other. The leader judge will stop when the group is held up at lights, junctions etc. There will be no stopping only to re-group and when the judges need to give points.

You can think of the judges as police yes. There is no limit to how many cars you can overtake but you can't overtake the leader judge.

No you get this in real life so no. If you undertake and the police see it you will get a fine. ;) So we will have to stay behind and wait. This adds to the challenge and creates tension.

Please ask any questions you or anyone else has, I will be happy to answer them. Thank you for your offer details about the magazine will be known in the future.

TDU Central - Challenge Competition for PC TDU Central are proud to announce the first PC competition!! Think you’re a good driver? Maybe even the best? Well now you can prove it. You have just spent your hard earned money on an expensive supercar. The challenge now is to get to the lighthouse for a photo shoot. The only winners here are the ones who can get to the lighthouse without crashing their car. The Rules: We will be following UK road rules so no passing on the right (undertaking) or going over any red lights. You have to Start from the Car Park at the Southern lighthouse and drive to the top left lighthouse (see map below). Full road rules apply, no crashing, undertaking, outside lane hogging, going through red lights, dangerous driving, going off road and making other traffic take evasive action. In other words be courteous and treat that supercar like it was your own. The supercars are road legal and are restricted to 155MPH/250KPH. Scoring is done by a points system; if you get maximum points then sorry but you are out of the competition. You MUST leave the session if you reach the maximum of 5 points. There will be a maximum of 4 people each time. There will be 2 judges, 1 in front leading and 1 at the very back. The judges will be watching at all times making sure you do not to break any of the rules above. However they will let you off at their discretion if you have been made to break a rule because of a glitch in the game. The judges’ word is final! The people with the lowest score in each group will go through to the Semi-final. Winners of the Semi-final will then go through to the Final. If more than one person has the same score we go for an elimination drive after the photo shoot. We go for the elimination drive until there is an eventual group Winner. Important rules update for all to read!!! If no one makes it to the top lighthouse by getting all 5 points then the winners will be determined by the person who did the most miles. The Final: The Final will be in Hardcore mode (Driving aids any or off) and is an elimination drive until there is an eventual Winner. Points system: Any kind of crashing = 1 pt Undertaking = 1 pt Going through red lights = 1 pt Making other traffic take evasive action = 1 pt Braking the restricted speed limit 155MPH/250KPH = 1 pt(going over the speed limit is allowed when overtaking) Outside lane hogging = 1 pt Dangerous driving = 1 pt Going off road = 1 pt Overtaking the leader judge = 1 pt How to enter: The competition will start on Saturday 26th January @ 9pm UK time. Please reply if you want to be in the competition and are available to participate on this date and after. There will be a maximum of 4 people per group and 2 judges in the session. The closing date for listing yourself as an entrant is Saturday 19th January. Entrants will be grouped together based on your local timezone. Car list: You can only pick one car. Your car will be added to your name and then removed from the list so the first to reply get a better choice.

Very good guys glad you had lots of fun. :D

Ok I will make it a sticky.

Ok thanks for all your interest. I will set out a plan next week. To help me if you could say what days you are most likely to be on TDU and the times for evening sessions. I would like for someone to be at the meeting place everyday if possible. So if I'm not available then someone can lead the cruise.

Sorry for the lack of club input from me the last few days. I have been very busy and as I understand so has TheScottishSpotter. I am busy for the rest of the week so I will not be on TDU much. We will have some club events next week to make up for it. As there are lots of people playing now we will have to do groups so I'm interested in who would like to be a group leader. We could have different ones each week. The different groups would meet at different meeting places but do the same events. The group leaders will need to know the rules and insure everyone is fair and follow the event rules. The group leaders will need to report to me about any trouble during the event. Sorry to the new members wanting to join I'm sure TheScottishSpotter will be on TDU again soon. Due to this the events next week will be open to everyone.

Hi everyone I'm back now after my long weekend in the rain. :D Club house #1 is full so new members need to be added to TheScottishSpotter's friends list. Then join as shown in the rules on page 1. All cruises leave at 8:30 UK time so you don't need to wait any longer for people to show up. Adding the names each day of who is going didn't work because you were then stuck waiting for them all to show up. So the 8:30 rule was made so you only have to wait 30mins to see if people want to cruise.

Yes this sounds like a good idea.

Thanks Diablo for the info we will try this next time. There is always a sync problem with traffic as well so this may help with that too.

:welcome: to the forum.

The daily cruises are for any type of cruise. Normal cruise is any car, custom cruise is a special cruise e.g. class of car, type of car or type of route. I'm not sure what you mean Southend rage because I do try and do different cruises each week. Just read back through this thread and you will see what we do. Also there is a minimum of one special event each week. I'm very open minded for new ideas and like I keep saying this club is all about your input to make the club bigger and better. There is no you must do this today that tomorrow every week. So far only a few people have come forward with what they would like to do. So if you have ideas for cruises you would like to do just say here. BTW I don't get offended it's good to get feedback that's the only way to move forward. So anything anyone is not happy with just say, if you stay silent I will always think everyone is happy.

Video card, memory and CPU are important what have you got now?

Thanks for the two new meeting places Martijn I will add them when I get time. Also I will not be there tonight but I will try and get online tomorrow before I go away for the weekend. :D

I have to apologize in advance for missing the show tonight. :( I'm sure it will be a good one as always. ;) If someone is able to record it for me I will forever be in your dept. (almost ;) )

Yes it was another fun night thanks Martijn. :D Glad we did get some gaming done after all the connection problems.

Yes I would love to help but as always just too much to do. But I'm here to help if needed. ;)

Martijn we can't connect to you, was this the problem you had last night? If you see this post soon then try and connect to us. As soon as you do you can take the lead.
