Looking for some people interested in a Auto Racing RP. It takes place in a festival style (Like Forza or GRID) racing event, but it also allows you to RP behind the scenes, interacting with others. Its recommend that you have some/little knowledge of cars before joining, but you don't have to be a car geek to join. But if you want to join for funsies with no experience, I (And the others here) can walk it through for you.

Premise:
Hot Import Nights was only a few months away, and it didn't joke around when it came to its participates. They only allowed the best of the best to join in and have a chance at the grand title of The Elite, a title only few are granted. Many wanted it, but only a few would actually make the cut to the journey to the top. Many applied but now it was time for them to prove themselves. You are one of the chosen ones, so don't waste this once in a lifetime opportunity. Today is the entrance test for the event in question and our 100 racers are all piled up into a room, waiting eagerly for the announcement of the race start. 100 qualified, but only 10 made the cut. Only a few minutes remained on the clock until the official announcement so racers could mingle with the other racers.

Everyone was talking about what the qualifying event could possibly be, as all were in the city of Tokyo, Japan awaiting an update on the situation. Then suddenly, out of the blue, a powerful rotary engine pulls up next to the area. A FC3S was the culprit for this noise, but it made everyone go silent, because just about everyone knew who it was from the car alone. The door of the FC3S opened and out came a well dressed man, but not just any man, but the Byakuya Kuchiki, last year's Hot Import Nights winner. He was respected by most of the racers here and his appearance in this years festival will be sure to turn more heads than usual. He walked through the crowd, seemingly unimpressed by the crowd presented before him. Nevertheless, he pushed forward to the stage in the front and stood there, ready to speak.

"Listen up, rookies! Today marks the 20th anniversary of Hot Import Nights. Now, usually, we would show you the map, your loaned cars and get straight to it. However..." He looked to the side and winked. At that time, several engines roar down the streets of Tokyo and surely, they pull up right next to the area. The cars pull up in one by one. A Saleen S7, A Countach, A Mustang, a Chaser, a Charger, a Murcielago, a Exige, a SLS, a Enzo, a 205 GTi, a Carrera GT, a 180SX, Barracuda, A R34, A MR2, a F40, A Supra and finally in the end, a Miura. "...But today is no normal occasion. This is the 20th anniversary of Hot Import Nights, and we have to celebrate like it." He said the last sentence very monotone, as if he had to say it against his will.


"Come on, what type of introduction is that?" One of the pro racers said. More specifically it was the Saleen Driver, Hudson Mohawke, easily recognizable by his mask. "You are no fun at all. Grow some balls and say it properly." Byakuya shook his head in embarrassment. "Sorry about the, lets be honest, rather shitty intro by my comrade Byakuya here, but he's right. This is the official 20th anniversary of Hot Import Nights, and It has to be special, one of a kind you may say. Luckily, we do have something planned out for you guys. A battle between all nineteen..." He raises and turns his arm into the direction of all 18 Elite drivers next to him before pointing at himself "...of us. Why, exactly do this? Because this is the way to celebrate 20 good ol' years of racing, fighting, laughing, screwing each other over and drifting at Hot Import Nights, and also, you all need mentors like me and this guy over here."He points to Byakuya. "Talk about a good ol' nostalgia trip, right? Anyway, we will get ready for our race against each other on our custom made track here in Japan, Split Decision!" Shortly after, the screens on all sides of the area showed the basic outline of the track.

"I could have said tha-"
"Sure, but you are ass at it." A few people in the crowd chuckle. "As you can see at the outline of the track here, there are lots of corners and straights on this track, so its anyone's game here. It's also very long, so be prepared for a mild endurance race here. Rookies, pay attention because this track we are about to race on is also the track you are going to race on as well. Anyway, while we prep for this race, talk amongst yourselves and good luck. Cheer for Wrench!" Shortly afterwards, All 19 Elite Drivers leave the area to their cars. Meanwhile all the rookie racers mingle amongst each other.


The racers who do succeed will battle to the top of the class for the title of HIN Elite and join the others as on of the ultimate racers. Make friends, make enemies, find love, and do what it takes to prove yourselves to be an elite driver.

I like GM decision as it (hopefully) leads to more interesting and coherent arcs. But honestly, I'm up for whatever.

Day One of adding Eurobeat to this thread till we have enough characters



Fun Fact: The RP was heavily inspired by the video game "Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights" by THQ (Rest in Pieces), with some elements of Playground Games' "Forza Horizon" Series and Codemasters' "GRID" Series, and if successful, I may do a Tokyo Xtreme Racing/Shutokou Battle spin off or an Initial D/NFS Carbon spin off. All people who join the RP have the ability to add more than 1 character if they wish.

Day Two of adding Eurobeat to this thread until we have enough characters.


Fun Fact No. 2: The concept of this roleplay could have gone 1 of 3 directions. 1 is Festival Racing, 2 is Street Racing, and 3 is Highway racing. Going back to these style games, I made the executive decision of going with festival racing, since its the easiest and (arguably) the most fun concept I could think of.

Day 3 of adding Eurobeat to this thread until we have enough characters



Fun Fact No. 3: You don't need to have a vast knowledge of cars in order to join. I've simplified some elements in order for all people to join in. But if you are a true petrolhead, you can take these elements and go into complex detail as you wish.
 
Day 4 of adding Eurobeat to this thread until we have enough characters


In terms of fun facts, we have no fun facts.
 
Day 5 of adding Eurobeat to this thread until we have enough characters


Fun Fact No. 4: If you do not see a car you want in the car list (In OOC), recommend it to me in OOC Thread and I maybe I will place it in the thread.
 
Day 6 of adding Eurobeat to this thread until we have enough characters


Fun Fact No. 5: This thread has started, but it is not too late to join as a rookie racer. Apply in OOC and CS and (perhaps) you are good to go.
 
Day 7 of adding Eurobeat to this thread until we have enough characters (Week 1 finished)


Fun Fact No. 6: There are a large variety of cars in this RP to choose from. There are little to no limits to how far you can tune said cars. You want a Vauxhaull that can outclass a Zonda? Go ahead. Want a Mustang faster than a Carrera GT? Not gonna stop you. In this tuning world, there aren't any limits to your imagination.
 
I'm not sure I want to keep this dying thread alive but I'll give it a second chance.

Day 8 of adding Eurobeat to this thread until we have enough characters


Fun Fact No. 7: Hot Import Nights is a real festival. You can find it by searching it up in any search engine.
