Virtual Endurance Racing Team (VERT) was founded in August 3, 2015 and has been hosting championships ever since. It's biggest success was HLMPC, a championship including LMP cars of all eras. The plot twist was the weight, as the cars had lots of kilograms of ballast added. VERT is reviving the championship, this time with more physiological specs.

Sign ups are open for the series.

1.1. The series will be ran with LMP1 cars from the modern era (2015-), meaning that the Vision GT cars are not allowed.
1.2. Drivers are allowed to open practice lobbies during the week
1.3. Drivers are advised to do a full reset (i.e. restarting PS4 system and router) before joining the official room, in order to avoid instances of lag.
2.1. This is a no-contact sport. Drivers must race cleanly at all times, as a single bump or collision can ruin another person's whole race.

The Calendar will be released in a day or two. Thanks for signing up mate and welcome aboard.
 
NOTE: I will be making my own logos for the number plates and the number font. I will update the links soon.

The "P1" and "HY" logos stay as they are.
 
Regarding round 7. Although it's very likely, there's no confirmation that a new track will release with this update. It could even be a rally circuit for all we know at this point if we get anything. Just saying :D

Edit: Statement retracted. Tsukuba confirmed

I'd like to join but I will end up missing a few races in the middle to end of the season. If you would rather keep the slot open for someone with better availability, I understand. I love these LMP cars!

By tyre, I believe @CrazyJohn is referring to the tyre manufacturer that you can change in the livery editor, and not the tyre compound itself
