@VulcanSpirit this look like something you'd be interested in? One spot left if you are.

Thanks for the invite. I'd be interested in taking part, but I'm not sure if the timeslot would suit me as I don't generally tend to race that late at night.

Good luck to those who have already signed up! 👍

Shall I put you down as a reserve just in case?

Can do. Haven't decided which number I'll be using if I need to be called up; right now, it's either #92 or #23 if I modify my Sumo Power semi-replica:

Twist on a classic, looks great. Just need to change the number board to either style 3/4 and your all good.

I will make sure to sort that before the race 👍

I just remembered this car from Gran Turismo 3 and loved it, figured I would do a ( quick and very rough ) copy of it for the race. I love retro JGTC stuff, the coolest era of racing in my opinion!

Yup, so many awesome liveries as well! Secretly hoping someone does the Esso Ultron supra on the Lexus.

Very nice!! :cheers:

Gotta make sure I get a good look at this one before the race starts, since that’ll be the last time I see it.

GTP_Guido
I‘ll try it.

I may have a tiger stripe pattern, I’ll check when I get home. There is one on Discovery for sure though. 👍

That is wrong on so many levels :lol:

@Pigems you will 100% see me in the gravel at some point when the MR oversteer bites :lol:

I’m sure I’ll be joining you there at some point! I’ll bring some sandwiches and a blanket, we’ll make an afternoon out of it. :lol:

I have been looking at liveries all day and just decided to do that

Edit: surprised that no Nissan have shown up with a BRE livery yet.

I can share it with any number if needed. :cheers:

Just to confirm before I do any setup work for this nearer the time - there is no setup changes allowed is that correct?

Set ups are fixed. This is to avoid people going down a massive rabbit hole in terms of tuning.

@GOTMAXPOWER You interested in this? Or is it too late at night there?

It sounds good but it's the same time as Kermit's endurance series. Maybe next time

Adam Barber · Jul 28, 2020

I got inspiration from the 2019 Rebellion R13 LMP1 art cars as I wanted something that would stand out. Also yes I've gone with the Honda as there was always going to be a car left over.
