Classes & Car Specifications
~PROTOTYPE Category (PT)~
PT cars are the loudest, fastest, and most powerful monsters of the WSC. Cars in PT are restricted to only SPORT SOFT tyre compound and RACING RAIN in changeable weather events. PP limiting must be carried by the power limiter ONLY.
Ferrari 330 P4
~FULL~
The Ferraris all round ability is excellent, with great straight line speed and when the sweet spot is found in the setup it's arguably the best car in the field. Can you tame it? (Neljack, WSC Ferrari Veteran)
Runs at 6XXpp
Ford MK IV
~FULL~
The most stable prototype in the field, easy to get competitive times due to the cars gearing. Similar top speeds to the Jaguar but slower to the Ferrari. The Mk IV is the car to get constant results. (GTPanoz, Top-placed Ford driver in WSC IV)
Runs at 610pp.
Jaguar XJ13
~FULL~
"The Jaguar XJ13 drives like no other sports car of its generation. Once the initial braking phase understeer is over with the XJ13 turns with accuracy and most importantly predictability and the throttle response is electric with fantastic acceleration even if the Jag lacks a little top end." (PluxTheDuck, 2 podiums in 3 starts in WSC IV)
Runs at 600pp.
GRAND TOURING Category (GT)
GT is for near stock GT and Touring Cars and as a result has some very close competition with driver skill truly showing through. Cars in GT are restricted to only SPORT MEDIUM tyre compound and RACING RAIN in changeable weather events. PP limiting must be carried by the power limiter ONLY.
AC Cobra 289
A monster in a small package, the AC Cobra pulls with monumental ferocity. In the midrange, the Cobra stands above most others. Acceleration is the Cobra’s greatest strength, but in the corners it also holds up quite well. The Cobra has good steering, though grip is below average, so be careful on exit. (SagarisGTB, 2-time GT class winner, drove a Cobra in WSC III)
Car statistics should be 300hp, 1311kg @ 458pp. Allowed Tuning: Customisable Gearbox.
Alpine A110
Superbly light and nimble but not for the faint hearted. It handles in classic RR style and requires some deft throttle work to maximise it's potential, but is monstrously fast once mastered. Decent at the top end despite the power disadvantage, though lack of traction and torque hurts it on exit, momentum is your friend. (Marunda, WSC Official Test Driver)
Car statistics should be approx 199hp, 715kg @ 470pp. Allowed Tuning: Customisable Gearbox, Engine Stage 2, Sports Intake Manifold, Racing Air Filter.
Chevrolet Camaro Z28
The Camaro, Chevy's answer to the Mustang. It dominated the Trans Am series in 1967 and 1968 with Mark Donohue at wheel. Ran by RWM in C2 and GT class S1 WSC. Now, you can have this great opportunity to drive the 1969 Camaro Z28 in WSC V! (Ranhammer, ex-Camaro driver)
Car statistics should be 311hp, 1415kg @ 460pp. Allowed Tuning: Customisable Gearbox, Sports ECU.
Chevrolet Corvette C3
The Corvette C3 is forgiving as it is slow. It has semi-neutral driving characteristics that in a long endurance race do not tire the driver. It does take some time to get up to speed and is not the fastest car in the field but is an excellent car in the wet and is reasonably OK on fuel. (FlyingFox, Corvette driver for last two seasons)
Car statistics should be 300hp, 1552kg @ 457pp. Allowed Tuning: Customisable Gearbox, Sports ECU.
Jaguar E Type Lightweight
The Jaguar E-Type Lightweight is as much a challenge as it is a pleasure to drive. The iconic sound is music to the drivers ears. Great fun but not so great on the brakes, or the corners. It's the reigning winner of the Le Mans Classic so watch out for it there this season. (RaceO'Rama, Jaguar driver in WSC III)
Car statistics should be 264hp, 1038kg @ 455pp. Allowed Tuning: Customisable Gearbox, Sports ECU, Weight Reduction Stage 3, Window Weight Reduction.
Lancia Stratos
Lancia's Stratos cut its teeth on the rallying circuit, lightweight, nimble and devastatingly fast. These qualities also make it an ideal racecar on circuits against the powerful muscle car veterans of the WSC. Very light, and extremely slidey at the rear wheels, it's a challenging, but fun and involving ride. (Furinkazen, Lancia test driver)
Car statistics should be 258hp, 980kg @ 447pp. Allowed Tuning: Sports ECU, Engine Stage 2, Sports Intake Manifold, Racing Air Filter, Sports Exhaust Manifold, Sports Catalyctic Convertor, Customisable Gearbox.
Shelby Mustang GT350R
It seems daunting at first but after a bit of practice the Shelby Mustang is an absolute monster. You're always on the edge of your seat with this beast and you can never relax, which is in some ways why I love it. You'll never have a boring race with it. (Lout, WSC GT class winner in WSC III)
Car statistics should be 306hp, 1268kg @ 457pp. Allowed Tuning: Customisable Gearbox.
Uh wait... Lemans on Labor day? I may have to miss due to work!
