Welcome another running of the Historic Sportscar Racing Series for the GT2 platform. This series is in its seventh season, and has been my favourite GT2 series. The cars are incredibly competitive and we have been lucky enough to have some of the best drivers, and closest competition around.

Many drivers in the past have chosen to drive multiple cars, with multiple nicks. Feel free to do so here, but just clearly mark what your alter-nick?will be so nobody is confused.



Perhaps GT4 will see the historic cars added again, and hopefully with an even greater selection

General Guidelines and Rules

We expect everybody to race cleanly, and within regular OLR guidelines. The series, including any protests or time inquiries is being run under granturismo.com race guidelines. If you are not familiar with these, please read the OLR FAQ at granturismo.com http://forum.granturismo.com/showth...?threadid=46235

Lack of knowledge of rules is not an excuse to break them.


While this is not a dex certified series, you should be prepared to defend your times with a detailed RTI (I'll give you a format), and in extreme cases, we might require some type of save. While I would like to believe that everybody is honest, a select few have proved me wrong. I generally run most of the cars at each track that is run, and have a pretty good idea of what is possible. I would not recommend trying to pull a fast one here, you will be spotted.

There will be random requests for a detailed RTI, or dex save. The placements of these random RTI will be determined before the start of each race.

I am looking for a couple of volunteers who are PAL users, who can check DEX saves, for those who prefer DEX over RTI.

Save your runs I would highly recommend that you always save your fastest runs, so that you can provide details later on.

You must have two wheels on something paved at all times. This includes the curbs, rumbles strips and the two paved sections on the inside of the curbs at Rome Night. For the purpose of this series, if you can see more than two wheels off the track from the above replay view, the time is invalid. ANY touch of any wall, guardrail, building.. regardless of how hard will rule a time invalid.

Going into this final race at Red Rock REVERSE, we have some fascinating battles for the final standings in the championship. Up front, it looks like a battle between Pumpkin Head in the Mini against Fogelhund in the Camaro. Whomever comes out ahead of the other at the Rock will take the championship.

For 3rd in the championship, rookie krtlex in the hard charging 67' Vette has passed the Lotus Europa of Rennsport Addict. The Europa has been known to be strong at the Rock in the past, and krtlex certainly has his work cut out for him, if he wants to stay on that final podium position.

5th and 6th are also very tight, with krt917 & Hare Turtle, seperated by just 4 points.

Any of the positions 7th through 13th also seem to be up for grabs, with the possibility of people moving up 4 or more positions with a strong finish to the season.

Good Luck, and have fun, most importantly, make sure you are going in the REVERSE direction.
 
Green Eggs and Ham first to the track in the little Toyota Starlet, with a 36.6 Sector 2 @ 150.2mph.
