Hi guys myself and gik69 have been collecting feedback from other potential drivers via pm to try and fill the series. The feedback we are getting back is people dont fancy the cars that are left despite us stressing they are all very competitive!. This series is far from dead but we are going to throw an idea out to everyone and see what you all think??? The plan is to make the series a BMW M3 vs The JAGUAR XJ10 so a Germany vs England kidda thing, although you ofcourse dont have to be from these respected countries to enter. The regs will stay the same 591bhp etc, with 8 drivers (HOPEFULLY!!) in the BMW creating 4 teams (maybe) with the same concept regarding the JAGUAR.Or we may even have all BMW/JAGUAR constructor points totalled up from the 16 differnt drivers rather than individual team points, so it will possibly be 2 teams of 8 drivers with the individual driver championship running alongside. This is just a concept we are throwing into the mix so any feedback will be very welcome.👍💡

I would just like to stress anyone looking at our series and wondering weather or not its for you simply take this onboard. Our series in the main will be about having FUN, ofcourse we want the racing to be exciting and im sure it will, so we are aiming at ANY SKILL LEVEL out there but we do ask that you simply keep your driving CLEAN at all times possible, last thing we want to do is be handing out any naughty slips!!👍

Basically your challenge is a mimic of the Top Gear UK vs GER challenge, I doubt doing this will attract more racers, but I could be wrong.
 
Yes i said it was a Top Gear concept when i suggested it to gik69 nevermind ay.:D

Suits me 👍

And with of course no offence meant to our German cousins, I'll be in the Jaguar :D

To be honest, I'd be happy going along with whatever you decide as long as the racing is fun and clean

After all, a big fat V8 is a big fat V8 eh? :lol:

ps. If you want a bit of advice from an experienced (good way of saying old) olr organiser...

Just say the car must produce no more than x bhp, and weigh no less than x kg's and be running x tyres

Leave how people get those specs up to them. You can set the parameters in the room after all

Also, be clear on what transmission, drivetrain, suspension etc mods are allowed

Just my two bob's worth, hope it doesnt seem bossy :)
 
Not coming across bossy mate understand where your coming from info taken on board.👍
 
Any ideas to get people more interested or make it more fun????
