Thank you for your interest
in the Hooters ProCup Online Racing Series (HPCORS). To join HPCORS, follow
the steps below.
New to Sim Racing?
See the HPCORS
getting started page.
Prerequisites:
(1) NR2OO5.
You must have a copy of
NASCAR Racing 2OO5 Season (NR2OO5)
installed.
(2) OLR Subscription. If
you're not already an OLR member,
read about
OLR subscription
rates and
join OLR. You'll need the OLR Client
installed - that is available from the
OLR download page.
(Note: an OLR
subscription entitles you to a wide variety of online
racing services and access to many OLR leagues.
Most noteworthy is the OLR client that allows any OLR
member to setup and launch OLR pickup racing servers.)
The following is required:
(3) Drive with Savvy.
Read Bob Stanley's
Racing Savvy.
Take this driving attitude to heart.
(4) Read the Rules.
The HPCORS
series rules
are
here.
(5)
Join HPCORS.
Signup at the
OLR HPCORS page
by clicking Apply to this League in the
right-hand column. Include your ProCup division of choice
(North or South) in your request (see the
series overview
for info about ProCup divisions) by preceding your
sponsor name by N or S. E-mail
Tony Stevens or
Mark Royer with any
questions or issues with signing up.
(6) Install Mods. To
drive the ProCup races, install the
GNS Series Mod.
To drive in the Touring Series, install the LMv2,
Whelen and Street Stock mods. Mods and OLR
Client are
available on the
OLR download page.
(7) Install Tracks.
Download and install the Hooters ProCup
tracks. Links to all required tracks are on the
HPCORS download page.
The following is
strongly recommended:
(8) Download HPCORS
Cars. Download the ProCup carfiles from the
HPCORS ProCup Showroom and Touring Series
carfiles from the
OLR showroom (Late Model, Whelen Modified, and
Street Stock classes). Place carfiles for
each class in their respective series directory, i.e.,
C:\Program
Files\NASCAR Racing 2OO5 Season\series\lmpv2\cars
C:\Program
Files\NASCAR Racing 2OO5 Season\series\whelen\cars, and
C:\Program
Files\NASCAR Racing 2OO5 Season\series\streetstocks\cars.
(9) Install BF
(Goodrich Tires. The USAR Hooters ProCup
uses BF Goodrich tires. Download and install the
BF Goodrich tire
textures (approx 0.25 MBytes). Unpack the tire
texture zip file to the
C:\Program
Files\NASCAR Racing 2OO5 Season\series\gns directory
(10) Paint a Hooters ProCup
Car:
If you plan to race in a
ProCup
division, paint a new GNS car or modify your existing GNS car in
to match the USAR Hooters ProCup style (see the
Hooters ProCup
painting guide for instructions and the
download
page for decal images). There is a five driver
point bonus for each ProCup race for driving a correctly branded car. If you
need help contact
Tony Stevens or
Mark Royer. Also note
that to be eligible for
HPCORS ProCup awards you must have a correctly
branded car.
(11) Paint your
Touring Series Cars:
If you plan to race in the
Touring Series,
paint a street stock, whelen modified and late model car. Note:
Unlike the ProCup divisions, the Touring Series
has no branding or paint requirements.
(12) Load CarFiles to
OLR Show Room: Load your painted carfiles to the
OLR showroom by
selecting Manage Car Files towards the upper
right of the showroom webpage. ProCup cars should be loaded
to the GNS showroom and Touring Series carfiles to the
LMPv2, Whelen and Street Stock showrooms.
