Thank you! That time slot is very doable. Count me in twist.

Also prefer a premium car, outside that I'm open with choice. As well will take about anything as long as it doesn't plow like a dump truck. LoL
 
Would like to join this series, is it to late to get an audition run scheduled?

Thanks.

I'm up for this 👍 Not sure what I'll be driving yet, I need to try some of the cars out first.
 
I'm up for this party, thanks for invite 👍

you know what other car might work very well, no matter how strange at first glance... 190E DTM car'92 :D (just add weight and shake it a bit)
 
OwensRacing - 08 Subaru(need to test to be sure exactly what I want to drive. Initial thoughts are trying this one. Never driven it)
 
You won't need to audition Dragon, we've raced with you before and you're more than welcome and ready to go 👍

See you guys at the race!
 
Just for us newbs who don't live and breath this stuff;

Please confirm I'm finding the correct cars?

15/30 aero:
Lexus IS350 - ES3 - 346*/1200/522? - No oil change (don't have mine run off yet for pp spec) = Lexus Weds Sport IS350 '08 (P)
Amemiya RX7 '06 - Stock - 315/1100/509 = RE Amemiya Amemiya Aaparadrink RX7 '06 (P)
Garaiya '08 - Stock - 325/1175/509 = Autobacs ARTA Garaiya '08 (P)
Garaiya '03 - Stock - 325/1125/516 = Autobacs ARTA Garaiya '03 (S)
Toyota MRS - Stock - 295/1125/514 (aero as desired) = Toyota Superautobacs Apex MR-S '00 (S)
Celica - Stock - 305/1050/517 = Toyota Wedsport Celica '03 (S)
Subaru '08 - Stock - 326*/1100/517 = Subaru Cusco Dunlop Subaru Impreza '08 (P)
Subaru '03 - Stock - 325/1100/ = Subaru Cusco Subaru Advan Impreza '03 (S)

20/30 aero:
Toyota Altezza TC - Stock - 315/1040/507 = Toyota Altezza Touring Car (S)
Spoon S2000 - ES3 - 324(325 check)/1050/504 = Spoon S2000 Race car '00 (S)
S2000 LM - Turbo 2 - 325/1050/505 = Honda S2000 LM Race Car (S)

Thanks.

And if I've got the cars right then my initial pick will be the Altezza TC. Since it appears to have the coolest paint job of all those cars. :sly: To bad it has all those silly stickers on it, take those off and paint it blue then it would really be the coolest. :cheers:

No big deal really. It's usually educational when discerning what the experts are talking about. ;) :cheers:
 
won't have time to race the preseason race or the Nurburgring race, but i am ready to race if there is room at Motegi.
 
Put me down for pre-season race please. dragonwhisky/Altezza TC
 
I should be able to make it 👍

Subaru Cusco Advan Impreza '03 (S) - Stock - 325/1100/

I havent checked it yet but presumably this will be 326* minimum check like the "08 Subaru. (for aero limiting reasons)

*needs to get kicked from 325 reg
 
PLs sign me up for the pre-races. Haven't decided on car yet, but will most likely be one of the two Honda.

Maybe we will have to have all cars kicked at a certain hp to stop anyone reducing hp and adding downforce?
 
Looks like the Altezza TC has 316HP/+40 ballast takes it to 1040kg/510PP at Aero specs. Car broke in, engine rebuilt. Don't know where it got 600+ miles on it since, until tonight, I don't recall ever driving it. UCD purchase I guess.
 
The specs are definitely work in progress at the moment. It appears that the pp value on the Altezza is slightly out. For now just set the hp to 315 and the weight to 1040kg, aero at 20/30 and everything else stock. Does that make 510pp?

Thanks for the figures at 316hp, that us something we may end up using as a way of regulating the downforce 👍
