I was trying to find this kind of RP too. Interested, and I have a character concept as well.

@Driving ParkYessssss Eurobeat!!! <3 I know what you mean though. I like circuit type racing in a city setting, but the mountain is just too sick. So obsessed with Initial D that I'm currently trying to save up and get an S13 or maybe one that already has the sileighty conversion done to it.

@DrewVonAwesomeAre you cool with this being a more mountain/city type setting with cheaper more attainable cars? Like the Silvia, Civic, R32, S2000, AE86, etc? If so, I think you'll have fun doing an RP with us! :D

@UrbanlinerExcited to know what you have planned! (: I also have something in mind!

I think being part of the same crew would be cool. Then we have to rise through the ranks and race other crews, etc. etc. More like Need For Speed than Fast & Furious.

@Rupdeus I like it. We could even start out with really low level cars and perhaps if everybody feels like it, we could end up upgrading said cars to take on new challenges or even letting people "purchase" a new car to keep up with higher level racers!

Yeah, let us build up. We should start in really shitty cars, like in the old Need For Speed games.

Absolutely agreed. There's nothing more fun than starting from the very bottom and clawing your way up. Will you form a special bond with your first car and keep modding it to keep up or will you keep buying new stuff to keep pace?

I'd be happy to assist anyone who wants help with car stuff as well. I do way too much car research for my own good, so I have a lot sitting around in my head. :D I have an idea for a car to use (JDM) that I doubt anyone else will go for when you can pick S13s, R32s, FDs, 86s, etc. But we'll see :D

So happy to see my interest check has caught steam! I feel as if we need to try and do something with it quick though. @Driving Park Would you want to collab with a small group over pm to try and get the ball rolling on this?

So maybe this isn't something to discuss yet, and if you go down the "everyone is in the same team" route it probably won't need discussion, but how would the winner of a race be chosen?

We'd probably be each individually racing 1 on 1 with someone from the rival team. I figure at the very beginning though, before they appear, we'd be racing each other maybe.

I made this thread half expecting no replies, but the response I got was pretty cool. I'll move this to PM's and anybody who want's in on helping with the RP can just PM me. Once we have an actual backstory, CS, rules, etc. we can make another interest check and I'll notify everyone who showed interest on this first initial topic. Sound good? Or should it be done a different way?@JudgeApatow@Driving Park

Also, in regards to racing, I thought maybe we could race each other and be each others rivals until we decide to go ahead and make a team once more people join. I already have a bit of an idea of how this could work out in a story.

That'd be cool, but then we have to decide who's going to win. Assuming everyone's on the same level, we could use a dice to decide the outcome before the race starts.

We could HAVE to work together, cheesy action movie style.

A thing I would like to include in this is the fact that it is dangerous. Maybe our characters only race when their money's in it? Since you could lose everything if you fuck up.

I like the idea of the dice rolling thing to decide on a winner. And as far as money for racing goes, I never really thought about it. I'm having trouble figuring out how we'd implement that though.

Bets, maybe prize money set up by others? As long as our characters are not racing for nothing.

Could anyone with more car knowledge than me tell me if the Mercedes-Benz 300SEL 6.3 would be a good street-racing car? I was doing a little research and liked the look of it, but don't know how practical it would be.

Ah! I was thinking that maybe we'd race for "street cred" at first, then once we actually form a team, we'd all take a cut of the big "pot" of prize money.

Hmm, not sure how that would work in the type of setting I'm thinking of. I'd say we could just set this RP in a fictional city where more car types are available, otherwise if it was set in Japan, then we'd only have JDM cars to choose from.
