There are no adverts here in the UK. Part of the deal Bernie forced lol.

I've been getting up since I was 8 for these races lol they are my life :P
 
Annoying I set a 44.6 just before qualifying lol.

At least ill miss the first corner mayhem :)
 
It's time for Team Xanavi to get on podium here!


Well it looks like my " Daytona Project " spot race coming up Jan 2014 will be a 24hr day/night change race now. Thanks to PD for making the 24hr races 24 hrs. Only gripe now is that Silverstone needs to be on the time change tracks as well along side with Bathurst. But then again I'm sure they know that so maybe Bathurst & Silverstone will get time change too! Fingers crossed'

Well yea the GTR's have the best top speed that's their advantage, just like twisty tracks aid the HSV. That's the choice we make at the start of the series. Remind him that we have had 5 different winners in 6 races. SkengD at this point is the only double winner. Ride around in the back and drop his kg while one of us GTR's take this one and gains kg. We all will be equalized out for the Spa round. Most series has 1 or 2 guys winning everything, here we have half the field winning which means the success ballast is working just fine!
He wasn't trying to switch cars. More along the lines of wondering why no one wanted to use it. About it's characteristics, he said something about the Epson NSX being the same way before. Maybe the cars changed in one of the updates without specifically mentioning it?

No I haven't done that. Anything not level 18 or higher plus 1100kg stock kg (except yellowhat supra) didn't make the list. I was open to making the field bigger but I didn't want what happen at JSTC to happen again. My premise was balance out a few cars and then slowly add more instead of trying to balance the whole entire available car list at once. For JSTC I should of balanced the premium cars 1st, and then the next season add like 2 cars to make balancing more simplistic. At least that's what I've learned from the past. I would like to add more cars in the future but right now my main consern for this series to fill up teams so drivers have another reason to race for, and to make sure success ballast allows multiple drivers to win or the series goes south for the back pack. That's 1st priority!
 
In GT6 there will be a reconfiguration of how downforce is modelled. If they actually redo these cars to mimic their real world downforce, they should be a lot faster and all equal. Thats the good thing about SuperGT, the cars are all very close and only success ballast, driver skill and tire manufacturer affect the outcome!
 
Hi guys, If there's still room, I'd like to add a Denso SC430 to the grid 👍

If I've read correctly its left as is for power / weight?

Good to see you Higherplace, another consistent driver with all the consistent drivers we have now should make for a good last GT5 series. Will be re l aunching Season 2 early Jan, and a Daytona Project going down in Jan too and if you don't know Daytona is now time change/weather change like it should be. Ill sign you up my friend!👍
 
Just a quick heads up.

We will be doing a post race check of the cars to ensure that there has been no bhp gains during the race.

It is stated in the op that cars must be broken in.

I suggest you guys run some bspec races.

This won't be a regular occurrence. Think of it more as a spot check like we did last season with the PP

No stage means I can add stage 2? lol. Or just run stock?

Yeah man sign me up! Glad you kept me on the friends list.

Keep in mind I'll be like new again, so probably a back marker in the pack!

You can add the low or mid turbos. Just not the engine upgrade or the high turbo
 
Post race scrutineering cont,...

Race penalty for failing post race scrutineering will mean all of your current round points will be ripped away and a race probation period. The race probation period means the driver whom was found over powered will have to be checked for the next 2 future rounds alongside with the top 3 to be post race scrutinized. If a driver is found guilty twice then that driver will be banned from racing for 1 round. If a driver is found guilty 3 times then that driver will be removed from our series completely. We made this our most severe offense, as it is one of the most degrading offenses to oneself and all other drivers.


Post race scrutineering summarized
1st offense 2 race probation period
2nd offense 1 race ban
3rd offense Series ban


*We understand that there are ways for a driver to get caught out unintentionally; that's the only reason why drivers get 3 strikes. Also this Penalty is a carry over offense so if you get strike 1 in season 1 and then get the same penalty in season 2, it still will be your 2nd offense. Autobacs will take as many measures possible to make sure that all drivers are getting a fair race. Because of this being a late night race for GMT drivers, we are only post race checking the Top 3.


In effect immediately!!!

When joe says all current round points, he means the points for monza. Not every point you've scored
 
B spec Bob at Mazda Raceway in the endurance section. Takes about 1hr and 30 mins


TnT-2000. 1.45.054 | RS Xanavi Nismo GTR
 
Yes to be safe about it. That 1 does it for sure.

My laptop had to go back to the shop and I won't get it back until Monday again so I will use the screen shot to post all the drivers qualifier times.

JoeTruckV8 1:44.589 RS Xanavi Nismo GTR. Good run Joe 👍

Atleast you didn't choke like I did. I pulled 2 44.6's in a row right after I did my qualifier of the 45.0.
