That's promising. It being worse was the point of making the regs different, many cars couldn't make the 1000kgs but the integra could easy. Plus with it being so balanced and epic in turns, it dominates the field.

My alfa and jimmy's Atenza were both getting 1.09's on GVE. Not really setup well, just quick setup and go, only a few laps run as well.


Did 3 laps with the Peugeot 207 GTI on GVE

lap 1= 1.08's
lap 2= 1.07's
lap 3= 1.06's

350 BHP - 1048 kilo - exactly 500PP
 
What about 355 bhp and 1100 kgs..... This way the cars that cant reach 1000kgs don't suffer as much.
 
Phil, times/dates have yet to be decided. Regulations are still be worked on to create close racing - mostly because the Integra is much faster than anything else - at least 1.5s per lap on GVE.
 
I say drop the PP Regulation. It makes all the cars irregular. You can't get a competitive 135i without going to around 505 PP. Aslong as theres a set HP and weight it should be fine.
 
I say go for min 1100kg and 355hp that should be good. And of course 500pp.

Not possible to get 500pp with minimal 1100kg and 355hp unless your car has allot of downforce like the gt300/gt500 cars

pp is very unreliable and I suggest using only weight and BHP.

dropping off the pp system and adding ballast weight to the top 3 would make things interesting.
 
just leave the regulations as they are and cap the integra? make things much simpler, and wont have to buy another 135i and fuss about the colour scheme and that again
 
What he said. Besides, any performance equalisation needs will appear during the official test at Laguna Seca.

p.s

Can someone please add me onto the first page team entry list please? Details below (again)

Team Name = Tigersport (BMW)
Car = BMW 135i
Team Members = si_berian_tiger + ???
Colour = black (body) & orange (wheels)

I would like to join your team if I can make the race.Looking at a 135i too.:)

I dont think the integra would get 355hp at 500pp and 1100kg has anyone tasted that? Mayby it does.

I just think we need to sort the regs and get on with it. Its takin ages to sort and nobody knows whats going on, how many people want to take part/what night etc

If it is slightly uneven at the start we can always bring bhp caps/ballast more into play as we go along.
 
I'd love to join in if possible.

And if so, I'd use either the Volvo or the Integra DC5.
 
I know this isn't on the car list but are we allowed to use the BMW tii? It's only a tuned 135i and we tune the stock one anyway??
 
Right, my changes were not final and were just ideas...
They were not universally accepted so old regs still apply.

355bhp @ 1000kg, with a 500pp limit .. I am aware that not all cars make them..

We will sort a specific limit for the DC5 then we will be ready to start the laguna seca pre season event.

Everyone interested will be PM'd about their team name , car choice and dates when the time comes, 1st post will be overhauled and we will begin.

The car list is on 1st post and should be stuck to.
 
Can you please confirm if we can use the Honda Integra Type R Touring Car?

It stands at 306BHP and 488PP

Be interested to know as it is a Touring Car, and this is a Touring Championship????

Not my championship? But I'd like to think it was banned, apart from the fact its a proper race car car abd the rest are 'tuned' street cars :/
