That's because I've been pondering another idea for a long time. In addition to having our usual same make races, I'm gonna throw the option of having class races. For example, the person who gets pick the new car would also have the option to pick from predetermined and balanced classes. Possible options could include:

Super GT:
2006+ GT500 - R35 GTR, HSV, NSX, SC430
Early 2000's GT500 - R34 GTR, Supra, NSX
GT300 - RX7, Imprezza, BRZ, ARTA Gariaiya, IS350

Le Mans:
2010+ Prototypes - TS030, R18, 908
Early 2000's Prototypes - Speed 8, R8, Pescarolos, BMW V12 LMR, GT-One
Group C Prototypes - 787B, C9, XJR9, R89C, R92CP, 905
90's GT1 - F1 GTR(Longtail), CLK-LM, R390, Esperante GTR-1, Lister Storm
60's Sports cars - MK IV, 330 P4, XJ 13

Touring Cars:
GT3 - SLS, GTR, R8 LMS, Z4
90's DTM - Calibra, Alfa 155, AMG 190E
2000's DTM - Abt TT-R, Astra, CLK

Nascar:
2010 Season
2011 Season
2013 Season

This would give us more options than just having everyone race the same car. It's something that we could implement with relative ease as all we'd need to do is balance and put a list for each class together. Since we're not called S.P.E.C. racing anymore, I can't see any reason why we couldn't deviate from everyone running the same car.

Have you given this much thought on it moving forward. I like the idea.

 

[DrKronin]

I think I'll try to join you folks this Saturday, if that's ok. Looks like a lot of fun.

Damn it!!! I can only hit the like button once. LIKE,LIKE,LIKE,LIKE...............

 

[brandofo]

Spa is going to be a great track for this car. Hope to see you all Saturday.

I'm not sure if I still have you on my friend's list, but if I don't I'll delete some people and add you again!

S.N.A.I.L.[Enduro] Racing Update 8/21/14:

- S.N.A.I.L. [Enduro] Racing Updates are a new weekly(every Friday) feature that will detail any new information for the league

- Future update posts may include sections announcing new drivers that have joined, pictures from the previous week's race, etc.

- If you have any suggestions or would like to contribute to the weekly update, please tag me in a post or send me a PM with the content you'd like to add

- Points for the last few races have been entered into the scoring spreadsheet and the championship standings have been updated in the first post

- Progress is underway to balance the "90's DTM" class for a test event for the suggested classes I had listed in an earlier post - Possible Class Racing Choices

- The test event will be held Saturday, August 30th

- Season 19 will begin September 6th

Clarification on the possible class races:

- We would only run one class at a time and the races would not be multi-class like some of the events held earlier this year

- cars for each class will be tested on multiple tracks and balanced as close as possible(within 1 second of each other)

- As classes are balanced they will be added to a post for car choices that will be linked to in the first post

- Once a class has been balanced it will be eligible for selection by the previous season's winner in addition to the car selection(same car for everyone) we've used since the beginning

90's DTM Preview:

 

[GGGMotorsport]

@cmbeal - is the plan to have the 90's DTM Class available for next season as an option? Not sure how much more you have to do to get them ready. Love the merc btw

 

[88GTA]

Mmmm Alfa DTM

I am going to try and make Spa tomorrow night.

The plan currently is to have them as a choice for next season, I'm doing some final testing and should hopefully have the specs for each cars posted by the end of the weekend. Next week we'll run a test event to see what people think of running a class race as opposed to everyone driving the same car. If all goes well, 90's DTM will be the first of the classes available for selection.

I want to race in this league, I will try to be there tomorrow night

Excellent. I'll find some time tomorrow to get some practice in and attend to the friend request.

I checked any I've still got you on my list. See you tomorrow night!

 

[cmbeal317]

@DMacs13 - I've just checked, and you are already on my friend's list. See you tomorrow!

 

[DrKronin]

I checked any I've still got you on my list. See you tomorrow night!

I didn't see you on mine, so I sent a FR.

 

[cmbeal317]

I didn't see you on mine, so I sent a FR.

Could've sworn I saw you on there, but maybe it was someone else. I'll check again this morning and accept your FR.

 

[JLBowler]

I could use the practice at Spa and I don't have anything going on this evening. I'll check my friends list and make sure I have @cmbeal317 on there and if I don't will send a FR and race tonight.

 

[IceWarden]

If I can get on and the room isn't full maybe I can join in the Merc? I'm terrible at endurance due to the planning required for tires and fuel stops but it might be fun.

The Merc (90's DTM) is potentialy next season. We are finishing up tonight in the Megane Trophy Base Models at SPA

 

[IceWarden]

I have one of those too

 

[88GTA]

Just a thought. Last time I joined for a night it was a little crazy with 20 people trying to race in one room. Will there possibly be a 2nd room up?

 

[racingchamp30]

If i don't make it tonight, it will be because i can't connect to the playstation network. I have resetted my router more than once, says succeeded for both Obtain IP address and Internet Connection but failed for PSN connection.

Try unplugging ps3 after it is powered down.

 

[SHOCKY_WELL]

I will be there.

 

[Bryds]

I know it's a little short notice but would I be able to join for tonight's race? Just read the first post, looks like a lot of fun. I can add cmbeal317 any time. Let me know.

 

[racingchamp30]

I will be in the race tonight. I found a solution online on my computer to fix the problem. My primary and secondary DNS numbers had a bunch of 0's and found the right numbers to input. Now i am connecting with no problem.

Welcome @Bryds,

Your more than welcome to join us tonight! I've sent you a FR and make sure you accept it before starting GT6 or you won't be able to see the room. Also be sure to read through the first post.

See you tonight!
