I was trying to figure out how to delete it, and I have no idea. Still new to this.
 
I'm in, any chance the GT class could run something less than softs? It takes away from all the fun.. maybe racing hards? Is the ZR1 RM any better than the Z06? I have a Z06 RM setup almost identical to the specs posted and was wondering if I'm allowed to use that? If not, I'll take the ZR1 RM. The date and time is perfect for me as well.
 
Tires can be Racing Medium or less. Use the ZR1 please
 
I'll take the other ZR1 unless the schedule conflicts with other stuff. Will races be weekly?

From my experience, if both the Z06 and ZR1 are set at the same performance points, the Z06 is faster. As for setting them at equal hp and weight, I don't know if they're equal or not.
 
Fail...check the weights of those GT cars again and try and atleast make them somewhat even in performance....same goes for the prototypes.

So making them all the same weight and horsepower doesn't make them equal?
 
Yeah, I'm interested.

No. First race is the first Saturday of January. I might have to change the time, not sure though

Unfortunately not. For example the Bentley will probably destroy all the other prototypes at current spec because it's so much better in the corners.

So will we be using medium or soft tires?

GT cars Meduim or less and LMP cars can use softs since there is no drover aids allowed
 
Stavelot
But you're not....

A minor tweak I guess. Anyway, are you interested? You started it I believe
 
If I get an R8 LMS I will join.
 
Is the Dodge Viper GT LM car allowed?
 
I'm interested. I'll be checking the thread to see whats available as far as cars go. Dont have time to test anything out right now.

What's the expected start time of this series?

I'm hoping January 7th if we can get a few more drivers
 
Glad to see yall back at it... I'm in. Lets finish what we started all those months ago.... Let me know if there is any way i can help!
 
I might be up for this as well. I think I'll jump in the GT class. Saturdays may work out for me, though I am not completely sure if I can make all the races, or any at all. We'll see...

What class will you run? And you can help by devising a points system and telling everyone to gain interest
 
I may be interested in the gt class. 8pm est works alot better for me than 7pm est.
