I voted Lotus elise 111r. I think it would provide close racing because of the lotus' fantastic handling.

SteveO1965 · Jan 14, 2009

I think the Ferrari 512BB will be interesting at this event 👍

Hugo Boss · Jan 14, 2009

Can everybody who feels the need to vote, leave a message in here as well? I already count 9 votes, but 2 replies. Your vote adds nothing if you don't plan on participating in this cup... Thank you 👍

My vote goes to the TVR. Tailhappy and blessed with a great sound :cool:

The Grim Reaper · Jan 14, 2009

TVR for me, as it is the best sounding out of the chioce available. It also takes some skill to control on S3's.

JvM · Jan 14, 2009

512BB for me. Since I haven't raced it there yet.

TVR is not bad at all either.

👍

Fuzzy · Jan 14, 2009

Right, I've voted for BMW Z4. 👍

GTP_DONK · Jan 14, 2009

I have voted the Ferrari 👍 but I also wouldn't mind driving the BMW. These two cars I haven't drivin yet in GT5

.

AutoAki · Jan 14, 2009

I gave my vote to F512.. love the sound, and the Old School feel when driving it.

I do like all of those cars, and I would love to drive every of them in separate weeks. ...that order which they are in poll, would be great new Monday-Event too.

mr_VOLCANO · Jan 14, 2009

I voted for 512bb 👍 Love the sound and handling

P1 · Jan 14, 2009

I voted for the elise.

Jack · Jan 14, 2009

512 for me. Its lovely to drive and a rare sight on track.

I'm thinking 2 weeks a car, rotating by most voted order.

Example:
Jan 19 Jan 26 - BB512
Feb 2 Feb 9 - TVR
Feb 16 Feb 23 - Z4

If/when the events change, we will adapt the thread to it or make a new one, always respecting our preferences: a) Suzuka b) RWD c) S Tires

DustDriver · Jan 14, 2009

Voted for the RX7, because it's challenging to drive and had some good races in it.
But it doesn't really matter to me which car gets chosen, they're all nice to drive.

Yeah, that sounds great!

...by the way, even that Suzuka is great track... Fuji gives closer racing because it's so wide, and have few optional racing-lines in many places. If it comes possible in next events-update, we should really consider it too.

EBK2 · Jan 14, 2009

l voted TVR because there's not many event's where people driver it

I agree, first mazda monday on fuji was great, many places too overtake..

Hyper-Dan · Jan 14, 2009

Voted 111R, I will join in two weeks when my replacement PS3 gets here. :grumpy:

Yes, it needs a specific event. It's not as effective (lap times) but it's awesome to drive! Quite fun.

mr_VOLCANO

That's another way to go. Although I dislike long straights (except in the nurburgring, it allows you to breathe).

Timppaq · Jan 14, 2009

TVR for me 👍

hornet_burnout · Jan 14, 2009

Happy to see such a close poll! We'll have 4 cars already chosen to race in next 2 months.

MJH · Jan 14, 2009

512 for me. Not driven it yet.

P1 · Jan 14, 2009

Why does this replace the RX7, surely we could have 3 - 4 different events a week instead of just one.

mr_VOLCANO · Jan 14, 2009

Your free too organize a event, I was not the right guy too do this. Burnout has bin nice and help me keep RWD event alive 👍 I would be happy to see more weekly events

hornet_burnout · Jan 14, 2009

Turbo.

Well, 29 people voted. From those, we are lucky if we get a average of 6 GTP every monday from 9PM do Midnight.

So we try to vary (so people don't get bored with it), and concentrate in one maybe two days a week (so there's enough of us to make interesting).

But, again, everyone is free to setup different custom events. Just make a new thread. You may even be more successful in it than we are 👍

NOTE: I'll be posting my tune for the Tuscan Speed 6 within minutes. It's a killer! In the good sense :sly:

Belifant · Jan 14, 2009

I voted for Ferrari, it's just a beautiful car, I'd like to see a bunch of them on the track

But all cars on the poll are fine with me, good selection.
Besides, I also prefer Fuji, it's wider and more forgiving, hope we get back there next time.

juanissimoX · Jan 15, 2009

Pacific or eastern time? I have a feeling I'm gonna pull for the BB512. Will anyone be on teamspeak?

DustDriver · Jan 15, 2009

It's GMT.
Be aware that the current pro events are region locked, and most (if not all) of the people participating in this custom event are from the PAL region or have a PAL version of the game.

steven · Jan 15, 2009

I voted for the Ferrari 512BB. Did you know it holds one of the rare non-V shaped engines that the manufacurer ever produced? Perhaps a wink to Porsche that back then and to date sticks to boxer-designed engine blocks.
