Open Header Motorsports - Where the community is #1

Open Header Motorsports has one thing in mind... Its Community. We look to reach out to the entire DIRT Community, and provide you with the best MODs, Tracks, Skins, Design Work, and the greatest Online Racing Experience.

We have a full force of MODs planned to provide the community with. Our first priority is Brand New Northeast Modifieds, built off of the base physics I built for HAR Motorsports, but with brand new Models, and more friendly Poly-Counts. We plan to expand our modding team here at OH Motorsports, and branch out to help other groups with Physics, Tracks, and Online Racing. In the future we plan to bring you a large array of MODs available for rFactor, including USAC Sprints, Latemodels, StreetStocks, UMP/IMCA Modifieds, and possibly some throw-back 80's Northeast Modifieds.Tracks will be a slow start for us, as I plan to concentrate on MOD's, and get a Track Maker for OH Motorsports to supply tracks to the community.

Open Header Motorsports has an Open Door Policy, and invites all to come race with us. It will be a slow start, but plan to grow rapidly, with great community minded members. We hope to have a MTCO Dedicated Box and League Tools available by early 2010. If you are interested in joining a community minded organization, without a Team TAG, this is the place for you. We are hoping to provide a place for all Teams to come and get the respect for their hard work, and to get that work noticed and published outside of their own websites.


UPDATE - 1/5/2010

  • Open Header Motorsports has purchased it's Dedicated Server Box from MTCO Communications and it should be available to us by Wednesday, Jan. 6th. It will take us a few days to then get all the mods and track installed on it. Then we will start our First Official OHM Sanctioned League. We are unsure of what our first league will be at this time, but details should be available soon. But we will probably be starting off with 2 leagues a week, XRated will be running one of them on his night off of work, and Myself (ShawnB) will be running the second league on my night off work, which is Tuesday Nights. So, I believe our first two leagues will be Tuesday and Thursday Nights.
  • Open Header Motorsports has purchased a New Ventrilo Server with a 50 person capacity. We had our last one through Hostile Contact, and they don't allow Vent servers without renting a gaming server from them, so with us acquiring the MTCO Box, we had to go with a Standalone Ventrilo Host Company. The new server info has been updated on the Frontpage of OHM.

UPDATE - 1/12/2010

  • Open Header Motorsports goes to TeamSpeak 3. The new TeamSpeak 3 has better voice quality, and can now use Push To Talk on your steering wheel without any plugins. We will be cancelling our Ventrilo Server at the end of the Month, so we ask everyone to use TeamSpeak 3 for the OHM DirtFactor Kick Off Series starting tomorrow night. You are only required to be on TeamSpeak for the Drivers Meeting, after that you are free to close TS, to allow rFactor your full Bandwidth. Please download TeamSpeak 3 from http://www.teamspeak.com/ and connect to our Server with the following information. IP - 207.179.246.229 Port - 9987

 

Thank You,

OHM Kick Off Series - DF

Kick Off Series

Kick Off Series is the first Officially Sanctioned League through Open Header Motorsports. This league will be hosting the DirtFactor Latemodels on a 6 race, 5 week tour to get things rolling here at OHM. Racing starts at 9PM EST, so we ask racers to be in OHM TeamSpeak 3 by 8:45pm. TeamSpeak 3 info can be found in the Module on the left side of the page. IP  207.179.246.229 Port 9987. Please read the Official OHM League Rules before any racing starts. If you break any rules you will be penalized, and this will also eliminate some question in the Drivers Meeting.

 

Northeast Modified Information

The OHM Community now has information available regarding our first mod. As of right now, we can tell you the modifieds will be brand new models from Aaron Carlise, and the physics will be more along the lines of BOZ and DSI with their Realistic Physics mindset. These modifieds will be built for simulation racing, and not Arcade style racing. Go to the Northeast Modified WIP Section for full updates on the model and physics progression.

 


Open Header Motorsports Server Query

OHM Server Query Image

Looking for someone to turn laps with? Well, here at Open Header Motorsports, we utilize the Live Server Query so you can see who's in our servers at all times. Click the image above to head to the Live Server Query page, and see who's in our servers, what mod they're racing, and what track they're running at. The Server Query, shows all that information, plus the Drivers Name, best lap time, how many laps, what session they're currently in, and what car they are racing.

Open Header Motorsports will also have a Ranking/Rating System going live within the next few days, hosted by BOZ Racing. This system will show overall rankings from all the mods running on our servers, plus individual stats, and top lap times for every track. This system utilizes a 5 Race Minimum for stats to go active. There is no sign-ups required for this system, and we hope it draws more racers to our servers, to see how they rank against everyone else that runs in our servers.

Open Header Motorsports Hotlap Recorder

Hotlap Recorder Image

Is turning lap after lap browser racing getting old and boring? Are you getting ready for a league race and want to know where you stand with lap times? Or do you just want to see if you can turn the fastest lap and top the charts? Open Header Motorsports servers will now track and keep records of your Hotlaps so you can see where you rank at each track. OHM Dirt Factor, OHM SBS Late, and OHM BOZ Sprints server are up and running with the OHM HotLap Recorder with the rest to follow shortly. Go to Menu Bar select Team OHM, OHM Servers, then OHM Hotlaps to see where you rank at each track. Now even when the browser is "dead" and you feel like racing and not just turning lap after pointless lap, go to the OHM servers and race against everyone who has ever turned a lap in a OHM server.
