I was just wondering if anyone was interested in starting up a all 'Vette racing club? Meet on like Sundays, Wednesdays, and Fridays? CRA(Corvette Racing Association)? If anyone is willing to go with this I will go further with the points, races tracks, models, mods, etc.
 
Sounds interesting. I think that tests have to be done to see how equal the different Vettes are. If they are not, it will end up as a "one make"-thing.

I'm thinking 3 different Vettes
1: ZR1 C6 RM
2: Z06 C6 RM
3. C5R C5

Can't think of another Vette than can be fast enough to compete.

But as I said, tests must be done and all cars have to be stock. (oilchange and broken in engines are concidered as stock).

Also that the GTP's rules and regulations apply, and no aids (TCS, ASM, Active Steering, SRF, Driving line).

Gripreduction: real

Damage: Heavy (if making contact could make you enter the pits (heavy damage can only be repaired in the pits), the risk is to high and will therefor prevent crashes)

In-game penaltys: OFF (we need race-stewards to judge the situations)

Just my 2..

You read my mind. I just made a RM ZR1, was going to post on here if anyone was interested. I am 100% in!

Problem is that my Vette is full modified! 869HP without a broken in engine.

how do you break in the engine ?
 
Ok, so this is the 3rd thread that has tried to start this up, the other 2 (one started by me) have both seemed to never get enough responses. That being said, count me in. Only thing I would change from above rules is that we need tcs. For now I'm stuck with a DS3. I'm kinda on the fence about the grip reduction.

If a car is brand new, you wont get max HP from it until you break in the engine. All you need to do is drive the car a lot about 200-400 kms and your engine will be properly lubricated as well as less stiff. I'm sure at times you see one of your cars HP goes up 1 or 2 hp after every race it does, means your car is almost fully broken in.
 
Anyone have compared the 3 Vettes listed above against eachother?

Well I think the C5R will be a difficult one to put in here, for the lack of people that have obtained one. I just can't seen to get one, though it's at the top of my list. As far as the other two go you are comparing two completely different animals. I think there should be a possibility of two classes. Z06 limited to around 550-600hp, and ZR-1 around 750hp or more. What does everyone else think?
 
This is going to be a short reply because I'm on my iPhone, but I was looking for more of a "fun" league. I'm not sure if I want to do a serious kind of restriction race. If your car has TCS on the sure. Etc. Im just throwing this it there to see if anyone else agrees.
 
Yeah, I was just wanting to make a Corvette club. You come with what you've got. I know its a disadvantage but its not like we're racing for anything other than bragging rights.
 
I'm in, depending on race times of course. Just a thought, if your going to involve the C5R then you really should consider the team oreaca viper since their such a even match.
 
I would be in for a Corvette league. I love my zr1 rm. Shoot me a add with a message. Ive been getting to many random adds without ppl telling me who they are. That being said I think Sunday night races would be cool. If no tcs Soft tires would be a must imo.
 
So we have 7 people in. I'm going to post the details sometime soon. When ever I get my homework done.
Edit: Should I start a new thread or just edit the OP here?

Sign me up, I'm flexible.

I'd like to see some classic Vette action.
 
Might as well just post up here. I am personally going to be on vacation the rest of the week and wont be able to play though I should be around sunday evening if people want to get together for a practice run and go from there.
 
I say a new one. This is about people's interest to the idea. A new one will be about the race itself.
 
You should start a new one with "CRA" in the tittle, plus the time/date of first meeting. Those posts seem to stay on top and get more attention.
