As we say goodbye to Forza 6 greet Forza 7 with open arms and say well done to GTR Warwick and Delta Racing for being crowned 2017 Champion of Champions, I thought we'd have a look at the Delta Story so far and some statistics.
Delta Online Racing was formed on the 4th April with the inaugural event being the Clio Cup on the 16th April. Since then we've hosted a further 5 competitions, the Delta Touring Car Championship, BAC Mono Cup, V8 Supercar Championship, Formula 1 and the Mazda RX8 Cup.
In total, 71 drivers have taken part in a Delta race and 24 teams have been formed.
27 circuits have been raced on (some more than once), with a total of 556 laps, which equates to 1,711 miles of racing (make that 1,750 if you include the grass that steve drove on) with 24 different cars being used.
We've had 12 different drivers qualifying on pole and 13 different winners!
The Forum has 136 registered users with just under 4,000 posts!
In a nutshell, Delta Online Racing has been going for 6 months and the feedback and enjoyment we hear both after the races and on the forum makes all of the hard work and time worthwhile.
As we've said before, we're committed to Delta but couldn't make it work without you guys and we look forward to the next 6 months and beyond!
Absolutely an awesome place to be and I can't wait for the next 6 months and what it may bring!. I feel fortunate to have been involved from almost the start a (I think) and i dont know about the rest of you but i personally had been looking for a relaxed yet competitive arena in which to race and meet like minded individuals and here at DOR I think I've found it. So here's to the next 6 months and beyond 🎉🥂🍾
Cactus and Steve you have both done a fantastic job running this site. I know it's nice to highlight the drivers who win races etc but little is said about you guys who are taking time out of your own days to create an environment where we can all enjoy the game how we imagined it to be.
Everyone thinks it but not everybody says it but thanks for making a great site.

Well done guys many sites loose interest and go down but this feels like home. The effort you guys have put into it is top marks when I joined just at the end of the Clio cup I was worried it would end up like cosy but that's well and gone lol. My highlight was the ymtv event even though we were left for dead we had a great battle between us and was nice to see the delta name on a bigger scale. Keep up the good work guys and let's put delta on the map with FM7

As did fuzzy and a few others, I joined from cosy racing but in the first 6 months this place has already surpassed what they was doing. Credit goes to cactus and steve for creating this place much more friendly and enjoyable racing environment. think the use of penalty points against driving behavior was a great idea makes implementing the rules much gentler. I like the way this place seems to be heading to and look forward to participating in future series and cups and other events should see alot more of me around from now on, now new Forza is out
I don't claim to be the tuning king of Forza, but I'm more than willing to offer my help with car builds and tunes if ever needed.
thanks guys. Means a lot the atmosphere of the community is important to us, and we want it to remain, i dare say at times it will be difficult to maintain as is anything to do with competition but thats the plan. We also have ideas and plans that we want to incorporate, just to spice things up and help us all improve and ultimatum provide, close, fair competition on the tracks throughout the field.
craig.... car builds i have a little task if your up for it. Have got some base builds for the Porsche's done in FM7. But i could do with someone who knows how to tune, mixing them up and seeing if any are unbalanced. its tough as i want the cars to have individual strengths, i want some to perform better on one track and maybe not another, some good through the corners and others quick on the straights etc. Unfortunately im limited on time from tonight until next weekend. and could do with some one tweaking and maybe some others just banging in times and providing feedback.

I'm absolutely delighted to have found a place to race with like minded gamers. Delta is the perfect place for me, no bigheads, no "i'm great your shite" attitudes, good clean (mostly) hard but fair racing, and some good laughs on a friday night. Well done cactus n steve for getting this off the ground, and a little donation goes a long way lads, so feel free to help the boys make this a place where we can ALL feel part of it and not want it to stop. Cheers
