Welcome To Season 4 of
The GTP Rolex Sports Car Series!



This series is based on the real life series, The Rolex Sports Car Series. Like the real series, we will be racing two classes on the track, so we will be racing both GT (Grand Touring) and DP (Daytona Prototype) classes. DP is represented by the Nissan R390 Road Car. This car was chosen because it looks incredibly close to the real DP cars, and since we don't have the real car in the game, makes a great look alike! GT is represented by the real life series' road car counterparts. With GT Auto Aero, they look like the real race cars!

Changes from Season 3:
  • No more Lotus Evora!
  • No more Mazda RX-8!
  • Aston Martin joins GT!
  • No more Group C cars for DP!
  • Classes are now split 8/8 from 6/10!
  • Nissan R390 Road Car is now the ONLY DP car!

Race Day Schedule:

All times are in Eastern US time, on Saturday.

6:00-6:30- Room will open between these times.
6:30-7:00 Qualifying. This will begin as soon as the room opens.
7:00-7:05- Bathroom break.
7:05- Race begins!

We are always done before 9 o'clock, usually about 8:30. So it's about 2 hours all in all.

Caution Procedure:

This seems to cause some confusion, so I'll make it quite clear.

A caution is when two cars are involved in a crash, and both drivers type "Caution." If only one driver types caution, KEEP RACING! When a caution comes out, we will all slow down, and the GT and DP leaders will catch up to each other. Everyone will catch up to their class leader, then both classes will pit. If you are a lap down, you may get your lap back at this time. After we all pit, we will go green at the end of that lap. Pitting is OPTIONAL during cautions. A breakdown per lap is below:

Lap 1: Caution is called, we all catch up.
Lap 2: Depending on if everyone is caught up, we may pit, or do another catch up lap.
Lap 3: Either pit or go green.

If it's a bit confusing now, don't worry! We'll talk everyone through it during the races!

Starts and Restarts:

For the start of the race, we will do a pace lap so we can do a rolling start like in real life. The DP cars will begin their pace lap, then the GT cars will follow. The speed is 60mph (100kph) the DP cars should have about a 5 second gap to the GT cars at the start to avoid a turn 1 disaster!

Restarts after cautions are single file, at 60mph (100kph).

For both starts and restarts, the race is on after the leader goes! The leader should go when his/her timing gets restarted for the new lap.

Stewards:

There are four stewards, two from each class. The drivers from DP will do the stewarding for the GT class, and vice versa.

DP stewards: Cnd, Polar

GT stewards: Tbw, Damu (Anirishvirvana)

Cnd and Polar will handle GT complaints, and Tbw and Anirish will handle DP complaints.

If you have a complaint, just PM both stewards for your class.

Room Settings:

All Aids will be off, except ABS. Real grip reduction, weak slip stream. Race ending timer is at 180 seconds. No visual damage, and damage is on light. Tire restriction on racing mediums. You can only use racing medium tires.

Car Lists:

Here we go! The fun part of the OP is up next! Keep in mind, you can only use racing medium tires in both classes.

Registration:

Why are there already people signed up? They are already there because they are returning racers! They are all clean, and we welcome new, clean racers!

How do I sign up? It's simple!

GTP name/PSN name: Car name

Now, make sure that the car you want doesn't have two people already! Or that the DP list is full.

Hmm, looks great, but I can't make all the races? No problem! Just sign up as a reserve! The reserve sign up is the same, just make sure we know you want to be a reserve!

Shall I suggest a W12 Nardo Concept for DP as well? Having one car in DP might be boring...

It's too heavy, and If I recall correctly, you can't add aero. We tested it out, and it didn't fit.

I can assure you DP will be fun ;)

Can I put you down?

And OP is almost done!!!
 
About time :P Also, I've noticed you've messed up part of the OP. It should say all aids off except abs. Instead it says all aids off but tc.

I don't know if I can juggle this & the AACC.
Plus ADR is in some serious trouble right now too. If I join, I'll be driving the R390 GT1 for certain. If full, the only other ugly GT I'll use is that Audi R8.
Put me as a reserve for DP.

Sounds good :) I'll shoot Djack a pm on psn. Does he have a GTP?
 
OIT! I won the championship, I'm the number 1 Aston driver! Sort it out now Rodney!

Fixed :)

Did I miss a Camaro from the draft? I can't recall anyone picking it and can't find the draft list anywhere!

@Winner- Alrighty :) I'll see if he's on iRacing now.
 
Looks like we have a decent grid going already this season. 11 or 12 people is great.
 
If the spot race was any indication, the DP battle is going to be even better than last year. Also, I think we need to run more laps at Tokyo 246 because I didn't put any gas in the car last year when we ran 35 laps. Plus, we're running just as many laps at tracks like Spa and Suzuka which are longer distance and lap time wise.
 
Sadly, Graz has pulled out due to time, so another Audi spot is open!

But a massive Bummer about Graz though :( He did so well last season!

And congrats on the 6,000th post! Welcome to the club :D
 
Let's run at least 40 laps at Tokyo 246. I didn't need to fuel the car last season when we ran 35 laps there. I think 45 laps would be cool.

You're sad about the Mazda, Elite? How much do you think I miss my Evora :grumpy:? Even did a lap of honour in it at the start of the Indy spot race qualifying :sly:. Even wanted to give it a guest appearance after the 3 Audi listing was coming to light.

We can do that :)

We should ALL do a lap of honor before Daytona xD S3 was the best season so far!

Rotary > All Else

;) :P

Loved that car so much.
 
I'll pull out the Sauber one last time :( It was a great car. I'll miss it. I do enjoy the new Nissan R390 road car just as much though :)
 
Hmm...this seems quite fun indeed. I'm dissapointed in the lack of DP cars (only 1?). However, the Audi R8 is a fav sports car of mine...

I'd like to give this a try in an R8 (A yellow one perhaps or can I change colors during the season?)

My PSN is mustardaddict (I've done some GTP race series in the past). ;)
