Aimed to kick off in 2 weeks' time, this is a series of 10 races - consisting a sprint drag, 2 hot laps, 3 short races, a rally, 2 middle distance races and a "longer" race - aimed to be the most enjoyable and yet varied series of races I can pull out of my warped imagination.

Each precise track/race will not be posted until 00.01 GMT on Mondays, then you have a full week (until 23.59 GMT Sunday) to submit a time to my Hotmail address. Sign-ups are also by that - or any other means you can get messages to me...

The website and full rules are all up and running now - the full car list is displayed along with race order and deadlines.

Enjoy!

Fair enough. Can't ask much more...

I've recently updated so that some races are paired. This drags the competition time down by 3 weeks, so it'll be over by 13th April.

Come on... you know you wanna...

I've decided that hybrids aren't compulsory for that round... If enough people submit normal car times, I'll create a second table and assign rankings from 1 downwards to those AS WELL.

So feel free to sign up.

I can't keep checking 8 forums every night with my dial-up modem, so I'd direct everyone to the main threads at GTN and GT3T.

By the way, during a fit of boredom I built a Lotus350 hybrid for Max's Hybrid challenge. Would you like it? It's only 1750hp, but it looks nice.

Well... in it's current FR form I'd say "barely". I think I'll MR it again (4WD seems like sacrilege) and try an infinite DF. Should be at least as quick as an F1 on track.
