Version française ci-dessous



Hi fellow simracers :hello: ! Now entering its fourth year of existence, Historic Simracing Organisation remains the only online simracing league devoted to the recreation of existing races and championships of yesteryear. The well known rFactor remains our basic platform, but the undisputed King of Sims, Grand Prix Legends, will also be back this year with its latest Sportscar mod. With five different series featuring a wide range of racing classes (single-seaters, Sportscars, GT, Touring Cars) the 2012 season promises to be an eventful one at HSO and should fulfil the expectations of every gentleman simracer with a taste for historic racing.
2012 will also see a unique experiment, in the form of a legendary multi-race event held throughout the month of October…

Here is the 2012 season preview, with all the links you need to join us on the HSO Forum and on the track :

1968 South African Springbok Trophy Series

South Africa and Mozambique… two rather exotic destinations for international motor racing, and a rather controversial one too back in the dark days of the apartheid regime. Despite being geographically isolated from the rest of the racing world, the South African racing scene (including the nearby Rhodesia and Mozambique) was very healthy in the 1960s and 1970s, and played host to several international meetings each year. Apart from the South African Grand Prix for Formula 1 cars, the most notable races were those of the end-of-season Springbok Trophy Series for sportscars. The 1968 edition of this mini-championship (5 races) was particularly interesting as, unlike in the World Championship, over 3-litre prototypes such as the Mirage M1 were allowed to participate. The big race on the schedule, the Kyalami 9-Hours, will be run by teams of two drivers per car, while the four other races, who will be run solo, will be between 2h30 and 3-hours in duration.

Sim : GT67 mod for Grand Prix Legends
Schedule : 5 races on Sunday nights, from September to December.
Length : long races from 2h30 solo up to 9h by teams of two drivers.


1972 European GT Trophy

1972 was the first year the FIA organised a European GT series for Drivers, a championship that will feature the highlight of the 2012 HSO season : the Tour de France Automobile. This event, run over 8 nights throughout the month of October, will mix regular circuit races with hillclimbs and special stages, and promises to be a very unique event on the simracing scene. Nine other races will complete the championship schedule, including three on the famous Nürburgring Nordschleife. On the cars side, the all conquering Porsches will be facing a strong opposition consisting of Chevrolet Corvettes, DeTomaso Panteras and Ferrari 365 GTBs.

Sim : Historic GT & Touring Cars mod for rFactor
Schedule : 9 races on Sunday nights, from January to November 2012. Tour de France Automobile races on Wednesday and Sunday nights in October.
Length : between 1 and 2 hours depending on events.


1972 SCCA Continental F5000 Championship

After having explored the Tasman and European shores last year, the acclaimed HSO customized Formula 5000 mod and its fabulous V8-engined single-seaters will this year venture to the USA for the SCCA Continental Championship. The 8-race schedule includes some of America’s finest road racing circuits, among which Riverside, Elkhart Lake, Watkins Glen and Laguna Seca. With big and varied fields, the F5000 races always have a special thrill to them, making it the closest thing to GPL available on rFactor in both spirit and form.

Sim : HSO F5000 72 mod for rFactor
Schedule : 8 races on Sunday nights, from January to June 2012.
Length : around 45 minutes.

1981 Deutsche Rennsport Meisterschaft

Porsche 935, BMW M1 Turbo, Ford Capri Turbo... three names that will for ever be associated with the fabled years of Group 5 “Silhouette” racing of the late 1970s. In 1981 the fading category, who was soon to be replaced by Group C Prototypes, was for the last time used as the top domestic class in Germany via the Deutsche Rennsport Meisterschaft. For this last season, the insanely powerful Group 5 cars were joined by the slower Group 4 GT cars who competed in a Trophy of their own. It is therefore with a special HSO mod (combining the original DRM Division 1 cars and the Group 4 version of our in-house BMW M1) that this spectacular championship will be held.

Sim : HSO 1981 DRM mod for rFactor
Schedule : 13 races on Wednesday nights, from February to November 2012.
Length : between 40 and 60 minutes depending on races.


1987 Australian Touring Car Championship

One of the top Group A Touring Cars series in the world was the legendary Australian Touring Car Championship (ATCC), which in 1987 featured a great field of highly tuned cars. This championship will be run over the first semester, from January to June, and will feature nine 1-hour races in which tyre wear management should be a major factor. After the Summer break, the ATCC field will be back for the traditional post-season classics, such as the Bathurst 1000, the Australian GP support race in Adelaide or the WTCC Wellington 500. Always a favourite among HSO members, our TCL series should once again provide us with big fields and highly competitive races.

Sim : Touring Car Legends mod rFactor
Schedule : 9 championship races on Wednesday nights, from January to June 2012. Post-season classics from September to December.
Length : championship races are around 1-hour long.

Next to these 50 or so regular season races, Open Events will also be held, on rFactor as well as on other historic sims. Registration at HSO is free and must be made on the forum using your real name. The HSO site will also provide you with all the details on our past, present and futures races.

Join us in 2012 ! :hello:



**********




Historic Simracing Organisation vous salue bien! :hello: Pour sa quatrième année d'existence, notre ligue persévère dans sa volonté farouche de ne proposer que des reconstitutions de courses ayant réellement existé. Notre simulateur vedette reste le bien connu rFactor (dans l'attente de son successeur courant 2012...), mais on retrouvera cette année des évènements sur la vénérable mère de toutes les simus, j'ai nommé Grand Prix Legends! Avec pas moins de 5 séries historiques (GT, Monoplace, Tourisme, Proto...) l'année 2012 s'annonce animée chez HSO pour les fans des folles années 60, 70 et 80! (Il se murmure même que certains opens pourraient flirter au delà de ces trois décennies d'exception). En bonus, une épreuve mythique, jusque là jamais courue en simracing, sera proposée tout au long du mois d'octobre!
Voici un bref résumé des championnats auquel vous pourrez prendre part de manière gratuite par simple inscription et présentation sur notre forum :


1968 South African Springbok Trophy Series

Afrique du Sud et Mozambique... des destinations bien exotiques pour le sport automobile, particulièrement lors des années sombres du régime de l'apartheid. Malgré ce climat morne, les courses automobiles allaient bon train, et de nombreux locaux (en plus des rhodésiens et autres namibiens), alignaient leurs prototypes superbement préparés et n'ayant rien à envier aux standards européens, surtout dans une année où la FIA interdisait les moteurs de plus de 3 litres. Point de ces considérations en Afrique du Sud, ou les puissantes Lola T70 et autres Ford GT40 et Mirage M1 étaient toujours autorisées à courir. Des courses d'endurance solo (près de 3 heures!) seront proposées, ainsi que les légendaires 9 heures de Kyalami, courues par équipes de 2 pilotes. A ne pas manquer!

Support : mod GT67 pour Grand Prix Legends.
Format : 5 courses le dimanche soir, de septembre à décembre 2012.
Durée : courses longues, de 2h30 à 9 heures (par équipe).


1972 European GT Trophy

Ce championnat, dont c'était la première année d'existence en 1972, comprendra le clou de la saison HSO : Le Tour de France Automobile! Couru sur 8 soirées tout au long du mois d'octobre, cette épreuve mythique (composée d'épreuves sur circuit et de courses de côtes), et qui connaissait alors le pic de sa gloire, sera à n'en pas douter un grand moment de simracing. Neuf autres meetings sont au programme, dont trois sur le fameux Nürburgring. Les omniprésentes Porsche auront fort à faire face au challenge des Corvette, Pantera et autres Ferrari...

Support : mod Historic GT & Touring Cars pour rFactor.
Format : 9 épreuves le dimanche soir, de janvier à novembre 2012. Tour de France Auto les mercredi et dimanche soir tout au long du mois d'octobre.
Durée : entre 1 et 2 heures selon les épreuves.


1972 SCCA Continental F5000 Championship

Sur un mod aux physiques conçues spécialement par HSO, et plébiscité par tous les pilotes l'ayant essayé, les amateurs de gros V8 et de monoplaces "vivantes" pourront exprimer leur talent pour le domptage sur ce qui se fait de mieux en circuits nord-américain : Riverside, Elkhart Lake, Watkins Glen, ils sont tous là. Un choix de montures vaste et excitant, des courses généralement à couteaux tirés mais réclamant une grande concentration, dans la grande tradition de GPL : tous les ingrédients sont réunis pour rendre cette nouvelle saison de F5000 mémorable!

Support : mod HSO F5000 72 pour rFactor.
Format : 8 courses le dimanche soir, de janvier à juin 2012.
Durée : environ 45 minutes.


1981 Deutsche Rennsport Meisterschaft

Porsche 935, BMW M1 Turbo, Ford Capri... Le nom de ces GT survitaminé fait toujours rêver les amateurs de groupe 5. Pour leur dernière année au sommet du championnat local avant l'avènement du groupe C, les allemands avaient mis le paquet : des moteurs sur-puissants, des pilotes de grande classe, et un plateau souvent mieux fourni que celui du championnat du monde des marques. En résumé, un championnat à ne pas manquer pour les amateurs de cet excellent mod DRM (qui pour l'occasion, recevra un petit add-on spécialement conçu par notre équipe de moddeurs!).

Support : mod HSO DRM Revival pour rFactor.
Format : 13 courses le mercredi soir, de janvier à novembre 2012.
Durée : entre 40 minutes et 1 heure selon les épreuves.


1987 Australian Touring Car Championship

Le mythique championnat australien de voitures de tourisme regroupait les voitures de série les plus radicales de l'époque, allègrement modifiées par les usines et les préparateurs de haut vol. Au menu du premier semestre, la saison régulière comprenant des courses d'à peu près une heure (attention aux pneumatiques!). Après le break d'été, seront proposées les traditionnelles courses d'endurance de fin de saison, dont le monument Bathurst 1000, sur lequel bon nombre de pilotes européens sont venus se faire les dents. Un championnat tourisme qui comme chaque année chez HSO, fait le plein et propose des courses extrêmement disputées.

Support : mod Touring Car Legends pour rFactor.
Format : 9 courses le mercredi soir, de janvier à juin 2012. Courses hors-championnat de septembre à décembre.
Durée : courses de championnat d'une heure environ.


En plus de cette cinquantaine de course composant la saison régulière, des opens seront organisés pour combler les amateurs d'autres mods de rFactor, et même d'autres simus historiques. L'inscription, libre et gratuite, se fait tout simplement sur le forum de la ligue, en s'inscrivant sous son nom réel. Le SITE HSO est également là pour vous renseigner sur les championnats passés, présents et futurs.

Rejoignez nous! :hello:
