I might be up for this, but not so much in stock form. A bit of tuning goes a long way with these front drivers. 225hp is prefect but not many of the stock hatches in the game have that much.

Also you have your US timzones all wonky. The times are correct, but LA is PST and NY is EST.
 
I am interested! However, I don't really agree with having pure-stock cars, since some are naturally better than others. For the sake of variety and close racing, I recommend setting a maximum PP level, having ONLY the required engine modifications and weight reduction to reach the PP level. All other modifications, eg. suspension, transmission, should be verboten. What do you reckon?
 
Every racing event here is already with tuned cars.
I wanted to have an stock racing leage.
would be more interesting.
I´ll leave it like that
 
What cars did you have in mind going head to head? I love the Cooper S but it'll get slaughtered by some of the others, like the Focus ST. If you took the limit down to 200hp this could have more variety and more of a emphasis on driver ability, not which car you've choosen. These cars vary form like 150hp to 220hp, and while some are heavier, like the C30, 70hp is a lot of power to make up in cars weighing 3000lbs or less.
 
Some of those in the pic
F.e:

GTI
S3
Cupra
Focus ST
CooperS
Delta

To count just some...

it´s your choice wich car you´ll choose.
you got plenty of testing time
;)
 
Can I assume the UCD available Spoon Civic not a usable car?
 
right!
Nobody?
