D-Max BTCC Season 2

[D-Max]

I've decided I would prefer an asian race series.

All cars must start under 300hp and be tuned to no more than 450?

 

[JACK_GTR]

Teams of 3 would be fun if it is teams can each person run different cars but same colours?

 

[Andil]

Would personally prefer 400bhp as a limit but I'm happy with whatever tbh. I think 450bhp and you might limit the cars somewhat. I was looking at maybe using a 200-250bhp car tuned up to 400, but I'm not sure they'd make it to 450 fully tuned. Might mean we only get RX7s, Supras, Skylines etc. - unless that's what you want! It sounds good though, loads of potential cars to choose from.

 

[priesty_lfc]

cool, sounds good.

Will have a look through the asia market tonight when I get home

My idea was 500pp premium coupes/roadsters , with 6 cylinders or less, sports soft tyres , and no aero.

 

[D-Max]

i like it but i just don't like PP racing. It just doesnt work with me at all! My idea is far from the 1 we are going with.. It's up to the people.. but I just can't put my heart inot PP racing, never could!

 

[kickstart88]

I don't like racing based only on pp, way too much scope for hopelessly mismatched cars, would much rather have a power and weight limit

 

[ps3dan101]

What about 400bhp , 1250kg ?

 

[D-Max]

Hrmm.. 450 1200?

 

[ps3dan101]

I'd prefer my regs as it will be abit more fun using lower power usually gives closer racing

 

[Knight Spirit]

We're testing 400Bhp 1200Kg RH in frags lounge now if anyone's around

 

[D-Max]

yeah 400 1200 sounds good.. I like molemans point too.

And regardless of what anyone says Racing Hards are more than enough!

 

[ps3dan101]

I'd say sports softs , any premium FR with 6 cylinders or less , and no aero

 

[D-Max]

we want a season people will be interested in. 400hp no aero isnt ideal and think of the crashes we'd have with ss tyreslol

 

[ps3dan101]

It's more fun with no aero , more skill needed

 

[Knight Spirit]

SS 404BHP 1200KG
Aero is allowed but no race/race mod/tuner cars

 

[D-Max]

think of what happens with aero!

 

[ps3dan101]

Fine we'll run aero then

 

[kickstart88]

Reeeeeeally don't like the idea of ss, dunno what happened after I left but that race at laguna was rubbish, way too drawn out considering it was only 3 laps. Just think given how good some of the racing's been in btcc on rh we should stick with them

 

[GODfreyGT5]

The SS racing was great fun!

Really looking forward to the new series now!

Are we dropping the stock 300hp thing? Restricts many cars!

 

[D-Max]

hold on.. we're looking for ideas.. dont go about twisting mine.

 

[GODfreyGT5]

Looks like James might be around for some of our next series.

Had a good catch up with him on GT, sound's like he's been damn busy!

 

[Knight Spirit]

Not gonna let him tell us chris? XD

 

[priesty_lfc]

Any further thought into S3 regs yet?

 

[Knight Spirit]

Erm, we're not doing S3...

 

[priesty_lfc]

I meant for the next series not BTCC :/

My bad!

 

[GODfreyGT5]

Series testing Tuesday night?

 

[kickstart88]

Has it been decided what tyres are gonna be used yet or is it still up for discussion?

 

[priesty_lfc]

Yeah I should be about for Tuesday

Can I ask if we can consider upping the weight abit?

A couple cars I been practicing with can't hit the 1200kgs limit

GranTurismo S 1337kgs
Supra 3.0 GT Turbo 1239kgs
Fairlady Z Z34 1239kgs
Fairlady Z Version S 1228kgs
Fairlady Z 300ZX 1223kgs
Focus ST 1220kgs

I'm sure there will be a few more, maybe change it to 1240/1250??

Also we gonna run a singles or teams? If teams can we consider running different cars (same colour) just to mix it up?

 

[JACK_GTR]

How many people would be in teams 2 or 3? if its 3 it could be intresting 5 teams of 3
