Thought I may go with this one tonight.
An '02 Subaru with a new coat.
Barcelona Orange Pearl with London Green Pearl wheels.
If you look at the back drop you can make out part of the pins circuit, with that and the GT sign I thought this was a worthy pick to post.
Sorry for the big writing
my eyes are on the blink again.
If I'm going to get my butt handed to me, I may as well look good as it happens.
Said my eyes were on the blink, maybe this one Matte Blue with Chrome wheels in good focus.

That's a quite awful colour scheme Phillip, makes me almost glad I can't make tonight. Way too much alcohol consumed last night so my only choice is hair of the dog at the pub quiz!
I have a track/combo I'd like to be considered but I have trouble getting on in the early half of the week due to various commitments. Maybe one of you gents could download and put it forward for me if I can't make it.

I wouldn't think so, i mean it's a weight and HP limit with tuning allowed. Effectively all cars will be the same, just tuning dependant which as always has it's pros and cons. Really can't see how an NSX could out run an R8 or Ferrari when it's not PP related.
On another note, I'm back at uni doing a summer paper at the moment, so I can get some flexibility in my papers for the year. Might not be around to often but should manage most weekends!
cheers

Tiggles - That looks like a promising combo with a great selection of cars, but I have a feeling it will be NSX dominated.
I was thinking of this proposal and reading your thoughts, you could always get round the worry of a one horse race by means of a qualifier.
Pick any car track TCR combo that everyone runs one lap posts time and saves replay. Cars could be allotted by Jon and Alexi or fastest has first pick of the cherry.
We've run enough weeks to know that we get the same guys taking part each week so organizing this would not be to much of a pain for the regulars, guess would be free to pick any car they so wish, but regulars would take one car from the list, once that car has gone no other can have same car, ensuring you have a good mix of cars on the grid.
Qualifier could take place during the testing period (Mon, Tues, Wed) TCR is a great event, the guys that take part are all good sports and the only limitation I can see is our imagination.
That is if you wish to diversify. (I'm on the fence)

Nice video Jon.
Looking forward to testing tonight.
Phil and Sam, can you make sure your track is available, just so I can download it, in case you're not about.
Andy, can you also make your track available and let me know what car(s) you want to use.
We'll test yours tomorrow, if you can't get this ready for tonight.
Jon have you got yours ready?
Anyone else who has a combo, can you do the same please and post your car choice(s) on the thread please.
My combo will be using the Clio Trophy Cup Car. I realise that this is a standard car (so I have broken my own rules already), but I'm hoping that everyone has got one of these. If you haven't, we may have to do a bit of dodgy dealing. If it turns out to be too much trouble, I'll shelve it for another day.

A bit complicated, but let's cross that bridge when we come to it... or if it's a bridge we like the look of in the first place.

I just picked one of the saved replays I had..... loaded it and pushed record, I was just lucky to catch all the action when it was happening. I don't have time to search through and watch all the replays I have. But it turned out alright. And thanks.
Edit: food for thought
Hi gents
I don’t want testing to become complicated. I think a template something like
Regulation Settings
1. Track= where to download it from or whom
2. Car/cars that you would like to use for the event
3. PP, weight or bhp or both
4. Tyres
5. Pit stops
6. Vehicle Tuning
7. Tune or tuners recommendation
Room Profile
Track Settings:
Event Settings:
Number of laps:
Penalty:
Visible Damage:
Mechanical Damage:
Slipstream Strength:
Tire Wear/Fuel:
Grip Reduction on Wet Track/Track Edge:
Race Finish Delay:
Something to work on, but try make it easy to use (user-friendly). I was then thinking if somebody would like to create a thread that they can lock with all the combos that they have just copied and pasted from TCR’s thread. I would be happy to add this locked thread to my signature for people to view the recommended combos for the week. Anybody?
Also guys if you like a combo or think it could be a good combo, and it’s not necessarily yours, and would like to promote that event then feel free to open a room unless there is a room already open. This is for testing that is.
When the combo has been decided through Wednesday’s voting then you are expected to run the combo for that week.

Jon, that video is a perfect advertisement for TCR; great track and very fair racers on it!

I'll be on a soon as possible for a short while, really want to try out Phil's Nissan and the Clio Cup Car. For Sam's I have my trusty (not rusty) 458 and RX7 ready. Hopefully see you soon.

Spy and I did a short test with my 1300kg 500hp idea around GT Paddock. By short I mean we ran two cars, the Ferrari 430 and the lamborghini murcielago lp670-4 superveloce. What we found with these two is that they both look far to awesome, and around Gt Paddock there pretty much neck and neck. Fastest laps at 1'28.5
and the glamour shot!

I'd really love to see these cars/regs be the pic of the week as this will be the last week I can have some serious input and time for this series. The cars look and sound amazing, I've opted for using only premium cars. The ones in my garage that I have ready for testing are...
Audi R8 (1'28.0)
Ferrari 458 (1'28.0) PP-567
Mercedes SLR (1'28.1) PP-585
Mercedes SLS AMG (1'28.3) PP-560
"Spy's" 430 Scuderia (1.28.4) PP-558
Corvette Z06 (C6) (1'28.4) PP-561
Viper SRT110 ACR (1'28.5) PP-571
Lamborghini Gallardo (1'28.5) PP-551
Lamborghini SuperVeloce (1'28.6) PP-558
Viper GTS '02 (1'29.1) PP-560 (bit sad, I really want to use this car!)
*Times are around GT paddock, each car got 3 laps with a pretty rudimentary tune by . yours truly
These are just my choices, you can find whatever you wish.
I shall try and make a track when I get home from uni and should be up (if I'm any good at making a track) when you all get online in the evening.
thanks
edit: I've been trying to make a track for over an hour... is there a secret recipe or something, as all I seem to be able to 'create' is either a bowl of spaghetti or an oval!
2 hours of trying, I'm giving up on my track creating skills, lol... Don't see why we can bring GT Paddock out again, the races Spy and I had were awesome

Hi Stiggs. I too like the idea of these cars but I noticed you haven't included the MP4 and what tyres would you be using? I see aero as well?
I'm not trying to be biased it's just this looks fun so I'm going to promote this combo. even though I wasn't able to join testing last night and my vote only happens on Wednesday.
Stiggs I have two tracks that could be of use for this but you need something that stretches the legs of these cars as well as a challenging track. I know GT Paddock was a great track but we've done it, anyway it's your call and your event, I just thought I'd share a track if you want a new challenge for you to test out. Like I say I have two tracks but the one I was saving,... for a Calling all Supra's event but I'll share the other one. It's called GT Cord Course and it has a long fast straight so you get that out the way,.. then hard braking for a right hander,...tricky to power out with sports hard go up the hill to a fast off camber right hander were on the exit of the corner you want to hug the barrier on the right which gives you a great sense of speed,... come to a down hill braking were a good opportunity awaits your competitor left then right followed by tricky fast s's followed by a left then short straight, right and a nice narrow entry on to the straight.
To start off testing this track I would recommend using a grippy tyre until you are able to find the racing line. I'm happy to help out anybody else with a track if they wish.
Edit: Hi Phillip just saw your post, The tracks one,two and so on will be the tracks that have been used in the past weeks combo's. But you have pointed out something hehe.

I don't have all the names to hand Jon, I know its not a must, if we don't have them maybe we can make sure they are added to all new tracks as reference.
Phillip.
Edit: looking at the track/car combo by members I still think these are just ideas to help TCR, the end call is still Jon & Alexi's, if after testing they think the car is ok but the track would be better by Jon or the other way round, track is good but needs a different car, its their concept we are just here to enjoy and help if we can.
Hope that has come over as its meant.
Phillip.

Stiggs IÂ’ve been thinking itÂ’s actually not a great track that I have shared as its very bumpy therefore makes the cars very unstable, (but I have the other track that you tested with the 512bb). But I love the fact that you and Spy have been working together maybe in the future if we have established teams we could do an event were you and your team mate are in the same car but on different tyres (one on racing softÂ’s and one on sport softÂ’s) with a relay effect to tie in with the Olympic theme.
