Over the last year, I have been organising a number of full length endurances races here at GTPlanet on GT6.
By developing a new system of running such events, we can accommodate teams of drivers that competing form all corners of the globe.
Using GT6's practice lobby as a sandbox, and the Network Endurance Race Direction System (NERDS), 'Network' Teams can change drivers by entering the pits, loging out, the next driver logs in and drives out of the pits resuming his team's car's race. Timing & scoring is calculated live, and backed up by 'proof' Stint Photographs.
There is a minimum of 2 classes, and we have a maximum grid size of 12, which allows room for Event Officials, broadcasters and commentators.
Our latest event, at the beginning of the month, was broadcast live on GTPlanet's You Tube channel, with commentary throughout from; myself,
@Wardez, and
@Jordan.
The next event will be held between the 3-12 October, 24 Heures de Spa-Francorchamps.
I would like to take this opportunity to invite you and your club to enter a team in the GT Cup class.
I look forward to hearing from you, and answering any questions you may have.
yours
