Smooth..

 

[CodeRedR51]

I might be up for this, but 15 rounds is a lot. Not sure if I can commit to maybe half the season.

 

[ItzRacing]

Apologies to everyone, I've been competing in the Australian Championships with my real race car, so I wasnt able to reply until now.

Thanks for the interest and I'm glad to have yourself and Turismo Racing on board. We were planning to place a limit of 3 drivers per a car. With that in mind, I am sure that 4 Turismo Racing drivers would like to be in the same car and be able to share setup knowledge with each other, so I will be willing to make an exception to accomodate for a 4 car team.

I'll add them to the entry list right away!

Yeah, races will be Sunday Night at 7:30 PM (South Australian) Time which works out to be an early-mid morning start for the Europeans and those in the Americas can decide whether they stay up a little later or wake up a little earlier!

That's okay, you are more than welcome to take part in a either a reserve role or even just join up and compete when you can. I understand that people may have other commitments and a number of drivers may be missing at one or more races, myself included. So we definitely won't hold a gun to your head and tell you that you must be at all rounds!

Hey Itz, Is that time race start or lobby open?

OP Has now been updated with full car specifications outlining what Engine parts are permitted to be used, the Aero Kits and Rear Wings required for each car and the permitted Tyres. All drivers competing, please make sure you thoroughly read the opening post and ensure that your cars comply with these specifications.

The entry list is now updated with the order for car selection. This order has been established based on the order in which the first team member signed up, with @Mike_grpA being the first sign up.

 

[Mike_grpA]

I'll turn some laps tonight and me, you and mt can decide which car we will use.

Can I ask why we will be forced to use only one tyre compound? Won't that take away any chance for different strategies in the enduros?

Yes, that might take away the strategy element, but you will find everyone will just go with the softest tyre available and go fast enough that the hard tyre won't be able to be used well enough. Also, in real life they only have one tyre compound available at Bathurst and there never seems to be a lack of excitement with strategy.

 

[Mike_grpA]

Ok fair enough, I would have been against using softs, as they're just overkill for these cars, but I would've been open to having medium and hard available, even if people won't use the hard, someone might make it work if they do enough testing and find a way to use it to their advantage lol. Anyway, it doesn't bother me either way.

 

[SAI SANTOSH]

medium compounds are the next best alternative----if u don't want softs.For the quali---we can stick with medium--for the race---RH tyres----will be fine

 

[Mike_grpA]

We're using mediums as the control tyre, with inters and full wets the only exceptions. An announcement on PrideTEC's entry will be coming in the next couple of days, we're just waiting on a member of the team to make sure we all agree on which car we will be using.

We did have a bit of a discussion amongst the CORE team and the conclusion was that the RM's were the best fit for the series. They definitely take the grip away and give you that 'V8 Supercar' feel that all the drivers talk about the cars having in the real world. A lot of other series are run with Softs, so its good to have something different as well!

 

[Mike_grpA]

Yeah, like I said, Softs would be overkill. Using the mediums will put a premium on smooth inputs from the drivers, and with damage on, clean racing will be the order of the day.

Mod Edit: Yes---I meant the same point----Rm give's you the feel. :d

 

[ItzRacing]

Yeah, I think we all agreed on the same thing there.

 

[SAI SANTOSH]

Hello @ItzRacing Turismo Racing---(my friends have chosen Lexus over the other cars to race)---So the decision has been made and we would like to compete with the lexus--- : )

 

[ItzRacing]

PrideTEC Motorsports would like to announce that its 3 drivers, Mtla1984, Mike_grpA and ItzRacing will using the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 to compete in this years CORE Australian V8Supercar Championship.

 

[GTPL_Plotnik]

Write more about race weekend format, time schedule and limit of drivers/teams?

 

[TDZdave]

Write more about race weekend format, time schedule and limit of drivers/teams?

I believe the team limit is 3, but can be stretched to 4 in special circumstances,

Most race weekends are 1 qualifying and 3 races. The remaining 2 races will start in the order in which the previous race finished I believe
