Gta 5 Touring Car Championship - Race 1+2

[@automan3215]

Just to be clear this series turned into a sort of tester for future events like this. So do please leave suggestions in the comments of the videos to come

[@milviodeleon4421]

Maybe no “catch-up” just slip stream?

[@pah23]

Can I challenge you, Brazen or one of the other regular circuit builders to make "The Great FailRace Blimp Race" circuit for 1 or more round(s) of a future series. There has to be some way of making it work. Would be highly entertaining!

[@jamesclark4532]

To avoid Alex on pole every race, shuffling the field during the first 2 or 3 minutes every race so last place in the points has the pole and 1st is in the back would make this even more exciting, especially from the viewers POV. It makes the racing more even, and gives us more opportunities to see Alex work through the field to get into a good finishing place and be able to see tight finishes and big early lap crashes without having to change viewpoints so much, especially when he's focused on getting a good finish rather than looking back at Gliscor taking out half the field with impatient driving. This also potentially helps keep the points spread a little more even so more guys have a shot in the last few races. As much as I like Formula 1, a huge points spread from 1st to 4th with only the top 2 or 3 having a shot at the overall championship is a bit meh. Also that Caddy build of yours is sick. Love the look.

[@pah23]

Is there a way to make the top 3 in the championship to carry more weight/ballast?

[@alimusamamman3267]

i was really hoping this was gonna be more skillbased. I think the only slipstream suggestion is perfect, cause slipstream will make sure that there is some good racing, and no catchup adds that element of skill

[@Ewanm9389]

I'd love to see these more "serious" events. Racing vans and tractors is silly and fun, but racing with purpose-built vehicles is equally entertaining to me. Edit: I should also add the same applies to circuits. Track made of blimps vs Bathurst replica, ya know?

[@mick0matic]

If only we could have more "serious" events with purpose built vans and tractors!

[@rhadiem]

as contrast, I like the silly races and feel there are dozens of other channels I could watch for srs races. Although I really just want Survive The Hunt videos 24/7. This was fine though.

[@SBEARD12345]

Yes there are other channels for serious races, but let's face it, some come here for the comments... Many bads, etc

[@Andrei0112]

@@SBEARD12345 I just think Alex is an excellent commentator, so I wish for the best of both worlds.

[@Mikowmer]

Just gonna point out, the Mount Panorama circuit (i.e. Bathurst) is technically a street circuit. The track is a public road when not in use as a racetrack. So no, it's not purpose built! \pedantic

[@revs7837]

This is a throwback to an old series. We had the old FRTCC in Forza 5 and 6.

[@jackfromzanderclan4366]

And the turbo tourers

[@AutosportDesign]

Turbo Tourers was criminally underrated for the amount of effort that went into it... I really hope Alex does more series long championships

[@pah23]

Could've started at the 1minute mark and lined up in championship order (with the top 6 or 8 in reverse order) for the grid or do a time trial 1lap wonder to set the grid

[@Nitlda]

A formation lap (with either a grid or a rolling start) seems like an interesting way to setup the grid Now to choose between one lap qualifications or (reversed) championship order

[@aromaRR7]

That is a brilliant idea.

[@Dangerman8000]

As my first filmed track, what a race to have on it. (and the win was nice)

[@revs7837]

Strong home advantage.

[@nathanweiss5174]

Any real life tracks you took inspiration from in making that track? I felt like it was imitating something, but I couldn't tell if there was an overall theme. Very good track for these cars and very visually simple which is non-distracting to the race viewing.

BTCC is one of my favorite racing series of all. I'm particularly fond of the old Mondeo BTCC cars. So I'm happy to see you do a touring car series.

Just as the MCEC finishes FR set up a tournament of their own. Impeccable timing.

[@levitikan]

fantastic races, looking towards the next races, thanks for helping all of us keep sane with these wonderful videos

[@pah23]

1 stage should be purely a Time Trial. And 1 stage should be a circuit raced in reverse(i.e raced anticlockwise rather than clockwise)

[@pah23]

I'd love to see some races with a LeMans style driver change on at least one of the laps. Or do a longer race with a mandatory car change?

[@hosephanerothe1440]

[@joemoorse]

This is such a great idea! GTA races are always so entertaining and adding touring cars to the mix is only going to make it even better!

Awesome 2nd race! Great racing and the Juggyler looks good :P

[@nathanweiss5174]

Race 1: That was some serious clean racing with a lot of avoided contact all around. Well done Race 2: Lets correct that mistake... Looking forward to more of this series. I enjoy the more serious attempts at racing just as much as the Brazen specials. Even longer races that might take a video each would be suitable, if that is something you want to consider. Not 90 minute sim racing style, but something in between.

[@SparksV]

Great premise and setup, Can't wait for the next video.

[@LukeTheJoker]

This is awesome! Nice work on the car balancing, it was amazing watching the Alfas draw away on the straights and struggle through the corners, great way to get good racing! Not sure if the Caddy is quite as balanced, I guess the remaining races will tell the story.

[@Donkjnr]

This was a great vid mate. Very exciting, this could easily be s series!!

[@billboforty6133]

Do a separate qualifying race before and turn off catchup and slipstream so that the racing is more consistent and skill based

Nice video. I'd like to see you do more survive the hunt series

[@playboisharty]

if cars didn’t cost actual money it’d be cool to distribute them more even amoungst the top drivers, say everyone does a lap in the same car and then from that list they are given a car (like 1st gets and jugular, 2nd alfa, 3rd drafter, 4th caddy and repeat) simply to ensure that each make has a fair chance of getting top 1. love the video :D

There's a chance to have a series of "FailRace MicroMachines" using the Mini tanks or the toy cars if you could replicate some of the classic MicroMachine tracks on GTA V. Would be epic!

[@anthoslykos6294]

You guys should do a first person race!

[@hosephanerothe1440]

[@lucasunger1020]

I rather like this, it's different from the usual GTA races. Maybe try a form of rolling start for thematic purposes in future races? I don't know much about touring cars I'll admit so I don't know how those races work in real life but it'd be pretty neat I think. Also, I think Gliscor had a bit of a prying the door open moment in that first race, but that's just my outsider perspective. Don't know what exactly was going on of course. Also also, these circuits all looked really well made, hope there's more of them over the course of this series and in any future ones you decide to do.

[@Dangerman8000]

I'm not too sure what people don't understand with catchup and slipstream. If just catchup was on, any overtake would be damn near impossible with how balanced all the drivers are (trust us we know, we tried it and it didn't work.) If just slipstream was on then any 2 cars could simply run away at the front and Alex (or anyone else for that matter) could get stuck in complete no-man's land and that's not enjoyable for anyone. If they were both turned off then any accident Alex caused or got caught up in would be a death sentence for him in that race. He would end up driving around on his own, occasionally making up places if other accidents occurred. Everyone who is suggesting doesn't have to make an entertaining video for over 400 thousand people to watch, so what is the problem with having slipstream and catchup turned on, which we all know provides interesting and unpredictable racing which at the end of the day we all want. So if the price for an interesting, exciting and unpredictable race is the loss of some realism, isn't it a price worth paying.

[@ptsdpamphletcompany5890]

I think a good thing for this would be either turning off Catch-up or Slipstream, not both just one or the other, also lining the racetracks with some more barriers to leave less run off and push players more to defend through the corners. also perhaps others have suggested doing the wait one minute before you start as well as rearranging the grid for the purpose of championship points, I would suggest a rolling start. Hopefully some day in the future GTA V will include the tyre wear mechanics and pitstops as an option regular and sport races and not just in the open wheel races. (Coming from someone who hasn't thought to hop into one yet.) Also if the chance ever arises, a Classic NASCAR, with the Hustler, and Classic Sports, kinda like British saloon car racing in the 60s, would be very cool.

[@Panzer_Runner]

Great commentary, keep up the work m8

[@yusufrizvi7219]

Heya FailRace, got a suggestion for you: A gamemode where 15 players must board 1 train within a reasonable time (perhaps 30 minutes to an hour) in order to defend it for 24 in-game hours against you. The defenders must select and board a train, and once boarded they cannot leave; they must act as a team to survive. The defenders may not bring with them any vehicles (they can however move from carriage to carriage), however they may use body armour and any weapons, excluding explosives. Defenders have 1 life, so if a defender dies, they must join the attacking team, and stay on the attacking team even if they die again, but on the attacking team. The attacking team has unlimited lives, may use any standard LAND-based vehicles (which must not have armour or weapons attached to them, such as the Rhino), and may use any weapons (excluding explosives) both inside and outside of vehicles. As stated before, defenders may not leave the train, but as well as this, attackers are not allowed to board the train (not inside, nor outside of vehicles), nor may they beach vehicles on the train for any reason, whether intentional or not. For the attackers to win, ALL players on the train must be dead. For the defenders to win, at least 1 player must still be on the train by the end of the 24 in-game hours. Do let us know what you think about this idea!

[@adriansmith2743]

This isn't really the sort of thing they would do; more race focused things is what they would do in my experience

That 2nd race was amazing. Really enjoyed that one. While yes having a short runoff and drop on the skytracks can kinda suck, we saw how much the slowsticks can impact multiple people, so maybe just have them dropping and respawning is better? Just my two cents but I'm a horrible track designer.
