[nitrorocks]

I'll be in the LMP class

 

[Tower Turn 13]

Can we do another photo-shoot on Friday? I should be a bit better by then.

Also are we just running GT-E and LMP1 as in seasons past? If so maybe impose a limit on people in each class. Like half and half, something like that. I prefer to drive the RUF this season but if we're really that short in the prototype field maybe I could fill in in a Pescarolo or something.

 

[Jav]

Perhaps you could send a message out to those involved when the testing takes place so that we can be apart of it? If there's no LMP guys I say we just make it an all GT championship. Cus from what I see there's only me in LMP, and I don't wanna run alone or against one other person.

LMP1 here!

I'll be in the LMP class

I'll be on my Oreca Audi!

I still think we should do 4 LMP1s, 4LMP2s and 8 GTEs!

 

[Cowboys965]

No GT? I think the bunch of would be disappointed...

 

[nitrorocks]

I'll run the r8 2001 LMP!!!

 

[Cowboys965]

I'll run the r8 2001 LMP!!!

Sorry, but I think that's the one we don't allow, but we can have 2 of each car

 

[nitrorocks]

At Le ams thy have four entries every year

 

[Cowboys965]

At Le ams thy have four entries every year

But we can only have 16 people in a lobby and we have 3 classes. And didn't Peugeot have 5 cars last year?

 

[freshseth83]

So 3 lmp guys so far? Still pretty small, starting to look like the REAL ALMS! I'm not hating, just want more competition. I'll probably use the Toyota GT-ONE or Bentley Speed 8.

 

[Tower Turn 13]

You guys realize also that not a lot of people know about this new season yet, right? Once we get a thread going in the actual series board I think we'll get more than enough enthusiasm as we usually do. I don't think these are all the people interested, we need to get the word out! Also I completely like Jav's idea. He's usually pretty keen on these things. Another vote for P1, P2, GT-E. And like I said I'll go where I fit.

 

[Cowboys965]

I think I can find a video fitting that, TT13, lol

[nitrorocks]

@Cowboys965 Ok, I think they had 4 factory cars, but two Oreca customer cars

 

[nitrorocks]

I will probably use the Bentley, Audi R8 Oreca. BMW V12 LMR, or the Nissan calamine LMP. Not the Group C!!! All depends on pp

All LMP cars are 680hp, stock weight I think but a few exceptions for some cars like the Peugeot and Audi R10 TDI

 

[nitrorocks]

Ok. My Nissan 1999 is 683 pp, I'll check on up later

 

[Cowboys965]

It's not pp it's HP and we try to keep the cars even I think.

 

[nitrorocks]

Thats what I meant. Stupid autocorrect

Haha, lol

 

[nitrorocks]

What nights are the races? I have kart practice on certain weeknights

 

[Techy]

What nights are the races? I have kart practice on certain weeknights

Either Friday or Saturday or Sunday, but Sundays may interfere with Jav's series. I think the race time we ran on Season 1 was around 9 pm to 11 pm.

EDIT: Passed my 2000th post

 

[nitrorocks]

Ok thanks

 

[Cowboys965]

Fridays sound good.

 

[nitrorocks]

Ok, does anyone race karts?

 

[Cowboys965]

Ok, does anyone race karts?

Gatrs does I think

 

[Tower Turn 13]

Fridays in seasons past. Seems to work best for most people.

Gatrs may drive karts but he also likes those ugly beetles

Late nights before the weekend late nights with school the next morning,
