The late Mini Maniacs having no more activity due to the fact that the old Mini Cooper '98 was removed from GT4 :grumpy: , I'm planning to set up a new series of events based on all small cars.
By 'small cars' I mean any car with a length not greater than 4.00m.

If anyone's interested to race small cars only events, just post in here.

I'll post a team thread (with team name, team logo) and a first race thread when 5 people other than me have answered.

Meanwhile, here is a picture of my latest small car, a fully modded Daihatsu Copen :

Cool pic. :cool:

Can't promise I will race all the races but I'm definitely interested.

Is the Lupo Race car to long?I love that car. :)
 
I think the Lancia Delta S4 is less than 4 metres, but it's not really in the spirit of the competition, I'd imagine...
 
The Lupo 1.4 is 3.527m, and I expect the Lupo Cup Car to have a similar length : it should fulfil the requirements.
As for the Delta, it's 3.990m, but I was planning to set the upper limit at 13 feet (3.963m) which would exclude this car.
Indeed, the Delta is not exactly a representative car of what I have in mind, but the 13 feet limit would allow all 205 T16, Renault Clio, Stratos...
I already found about 80 cars under 13 feet in length among the 220 cars I have in my garage.

I'll post a list later in the team thread.
 
This is probably the most original and coolest idea for a team and/or race series I have seen in a long time. In fact, it is probably the best in both respects that I've ever seen!

My entry: my Ford RS200 with dimensions of 4000mm X 1764mm X 1322mm. It just BARELY makes the requirement. I fell in love with this car half-way through the rally events and have used it, ironically enough, for a tarmac race car mostly. If my RX-7s and EVOs get too much sun and I don't want to blow away my opponents with one of my Z race cars, this puppy gets to fly around the track some! And with 4wd, fly it does.

Of course, this car may upset any sort of balance you may be going for since it is one of the fastest production cars ever built. Note: "PRODUCTION car" before anyone says Ferrari or Porsche/RUF.
