The three options I have for the DP next year are as follows:

1.) Keep what we have now. (This is my suggestion)
2.) Use the R390 GT-1 Road car plus one or two more street cars that resemble a DP
3.) Use the LMP from the 1990s like the BMW McLaren FINA car, R390 GT1 Race car, and the Mercedes CLK LM

Wasn't sure about the names of the 90's cars :P Mind if I toss it in the OP?

Which 5 GT cars would you like?
Track list?

  • No team owners in GT
  • Current DP cars OR Nissan R390 GT-1 road car (if so, I'll switch to DP)
  • Mazda, Audi, Ferrari, BMW, Evora, Camaro (would be interesting, but, having 6 GT car options could be weird)
  • No Monza, no Fuji, no Le Mans
  • Maybe Trial Mountain (to replace the real life VIR) and Madrid (Detroit)
 
Team Owners Or Not? Yes
Keep Current DP cars? Or change? Keep
Track list? I think we should add one or two custom tracks to the schedule

5 GT cars:
Ferrari 458 Italia
BMW M3
Camaro
R8 5.2
RX8
 
DP-keep what we have
GT-RX-8, 458, R8, Evora, Camaro, Viper
Team owners-Don't care really. James has brought PaulMac into the series.
No Monza: Add Trial Mountain and possibly Madrid.

6 Would be quite weird... 2 car teams are bettter :D

I'd say no Monza, no Fugi and no Le Mans too. Here's my list:

(In no order...)

Daytona
Tokyo
Indy
Laguna
Cape ring south (One with no jump or loop)
Suzuka
Rome?
 
Here is my track list

Daytona(NAEC)
Tokyo
Laguna
Custom Barber?
Indy(NAEC)
Suzuka
Rome
Tskuba
Custom Mid-Ohio(NAEC)?
Cape Ring South

I think I want to stay away from custom tracks. I also think that Madrid gets 'too' narrow at points for a 2 class race.

Okay, Tokyo does take the place of Detroit, and Cape Ring South takes Barber (sort of,) but, nah, not Rome. It's too narrow in like three spots. Suzuka's an uncertainty.

I'd like to see someone include something like this. Notice, there are a lot of corners, which are taken flat out/close to flat out. It reminds me of Trial Mountain.


BTW :lol: : "I need you to go REAL fast, and when you see the corner, turn!" Gosh I love GRM.

Ok could we give customs for preseason and see how they go. Also I updated my track list.
 
MrMelancholy15
Because it's not really Barber. You've got iRacing; go compare Barber Motorsports Park there, to your GT5 recreation. :lol: They're horribly wrong.

Daytona isn't correct either but we use that.
 
Cape ring is more Watkins glen... At least it is to me...

And Daytona has a bigger bus stop... Big deal... You're Barber is terribly off...
 
Daytona is a real track though and it's on GT5 so it's hardley wrong, sure there have been track updates to it in real life but for the most part it's the same. Indy has been changed in real life too btw. (Hairpins are now wider and faster)

Also I most likely won't be in Season 3.

Cape Ring South=Watkins Glen? Hmmm, Cape Ring South is a slower average lap than Tokyo... We still need a track with a higher average speed (Watkins Glen short course)

No I mean the walls we have leading us to the infield and the tire wall blocking that wall also the wall at the bus stop those aren't correct at all.

You understand why they're there though, right?

If they weren't, people would cut.
 
This will mostly due to a Job for this as it requires flexable hours for "rotational 24 hr shifts" :(. Meaning I'll be working while you race or shatered sleeping to get up for an early shift. (Police Control room assistant) Will find out if I get to the 2nd stage (Interviews etc) this week.

Sounds like a cool job!

"Wait, so, I get a 10 second penalty, for cutting 50 seconds worth of track? Okay! Let's do this!" Suddenly, the GT field would be 30 seconds in front of the DP field. :lol:


Anyways, instead of saying that, we'll make a rule:


"Because people can't always play/practice on User Created tracks, we don't use User Created tracks." Discussion over.


Onwards! We still need to discuss high-average-speed tracks.

Ya that's why you set penalties. They hand out drive through penalties during the race for cutters. Also if we didn't have the walls you would have to time your breaking.
 
M3
458
Camaro
R8
RX8

Here is my vote. My I remind you if we have team owners it keeps me off the track.
 
polarbear345
Yes, Shall we decide the GT cars?

Evora
458
Camaro
R8
RX8

OR

M3
458
Camaro
R8
RX8
Click to expand...

I want Evora please. I want M3 please. I can't be bothered with the R8 (yawn) or Camaro. I like the RX-8.

And, if we discuss the R390 road car (gives us a chance to make teams with team colours etc.,) and that turns out, I might even veto my own vote, because I might not stay in GT.
