I live it but I think we change the camaro to the ZO6

Me too and I've put the Laps for each race. They should all be about 145 miles give or take a few. Let me know if I'm too off
 
You guys are getting some the 4 cars for GT is perfect less cars less imbalance issues. But you also need to focus on the LMP class. Also you should have tests drivers so you don't let driving styles create inaccurate results.

Also you should be discussing your idea in private off this site. If you like make a report of what you got and PM me when your done. If approved make a new thread.
 
Alright so after some testing here are the gt numbers I've come up with:

All cars are at 1280kg

Audi r8 4.2: 465hp

Ferrari 458: 455hp

Dodge viper srt10: 510hp

Chevrolet corvette z06: 500 hp

If the gt drivers could do a few laps in their car or each car and post their lap times at Daytona road course so we can see how close they are. I drove them all with no tuning: only hp and balace were changed and on racing soft tires. All cars have all gt auto aero upgrades. The corvette is NOT race modded!
 
The four dp (lmp) cars we would like to have race are:

Peugeot 908 team total

Peugeot 908 team oracle (the rainbow and shiny one)

Toyota gt one

Bentley speed 8

If someone could test these for hp and weight regulations thatd be great. I would but I only have the Peugeot. If you do, try to keep them all at 1 weight and just have the hp be different.

Thanks!
 
We should be ready to race by next Saturday not this one coming up but the one after
 
updated the post with set times for pretty much everything that will happen on race day, and practice but thats pretty straight forward :P

points sytem posted too!

through away

I understand a new one is needed, but without enough new information I think now is not the right time. This is a "hot" thread and gets quite a few views every day, to throw it away I think would be like red bull telling sebastian vettel that because he hasn't won the first two races that he needs to find a new team. It would be pointless
 
You kind of need a fresh start with the arguments and previous issues stated before, as it may scare away new drivers. I'm sure a new thread will freshen the series with new rules and a new cars. Also existing drivers who still want to compete will come back the ones that didn't like it will not come back. So I say yes you need a new thread but not yet as your still finalizing ideas. I say make a new thread in the Interest check forum and try to get Everything 100% before making a new official thread.

Also I want to say you still. It done with the main page of your series and the new thread is literally a copy paste of this one. No new info there. Also half the drivers are not active in that list. Also you need to make a much cleaner and attractive OP to give clear and important information.

The part of the last post with "the new thread is literally a copy and paste of the old one" is my hesitation. Yes the bickering is going to scare away some of these guys, but with no new info who cares it'll be more of the same. James: if you could put a picture of the logo on the new one thatll be cool, I could supply the pictures, but whenever I try to put them up I can't see them :( also regarding the show-up numbers for this past weekend- I was thinking, there were a solid 6-8 people there. Pretty good I'd say as I got 2 messages from people saying they couldn't make it. Both from dp. So that would have been like 4 dp drivers and 5 gt drivers. I'd say we'd all have to be very pleased with that. So there was a good show up, it was just very unbalanced, way more gt than dp. Hopefully once we get the time issues out of the way- pepsimaxcrew sent me a friend request and joined at 8, I think he's on central time so once we get rid of those who don't have any contact well be at a better place to start the new thread. I'll make a list of things I think well have to have complete before the new thread is made.

1. Finalized GT and DP regs for each car.

2. The knowledge of how to add pictures/graphics

3. We weed out the inactive drivers from the list.

Well I can't post the pictures from my smartphone

I have a computer I can use, if someone can give me instructions on how to put them up without them showing up as a red x In a box in the corner, or tell me why this is happening
 
Try using photobucket to host your picture and copy there
 
ill try tomorrow, i had to study a ton tonight for my two tests tomorrow so james if you could send the message to the inactives during the day thatd be great. im going to try to put a picture up now, let me know if you can see it.
picture.php
 
I have a little pole for everyone because I wanna change to things with the races I wanna put indy road course as the second round race and indy superspeedway as the final round would everyone be cool with getting rid of monza to do that or would you want us to just add indy superspeedway at the end as the last round and keep monza where it is and indy road course where It's at
 
Testing the dp cars for their regs in James's lounge. Join if you can, if not the target time zone is 1:38.5-1:39.000 if you want to test on your own! If you can use all the cars so well know how your driving style is affecting the results. Also like in the dp class there is a standard weight. That weight is 970kg now and complaints say them here


Oh and it's at Daytona road course


I'm thinking maybe giving the 458 5hp and taking away 5hp from the viper

Sorry guys for my absence. It would have been more appropriate for me to notify you earlier that it is hard for me to plan two, three weeks in to the future. You're going to have to count me out for the rest of your season. .
