BREAKING NEWS: After a delegation of all AUEC officials, the following has been decided:
->The planned GT3 Championship has been officially cancelled for 2014. It remains up in the air for a possible 2015 season.

Hey angel, I would love to race in Super GT in the Nissan GT-R.

 

[TeamEdge702]

Depending on what day super gt will be, Phantom Racing would like to particapate

Hey angel, I would love to race in Super GT in the Nissan GT-R.

This is debatable depending on how the rest of Diablo Pantera Racing decides. NearFear and cshardy62096 control this aspect of the team. I know Cherokee Motorsports is running a GT300 only campaign.

Depending on what day super gt will be, Phantom Racing would like to particapate

Which class if not both, and which chassis. GT500 is limited to 500 hp, GT300 is limited to 300 hp.

 

[TeamEdge702]

Phantom Racing super gt:

CJBMX702-RX-7 gt300
TNR_FILO-RX-7 gt300

 

[Eva]

I should have made the Super GT a little clearer. All chassis must be base models. No stealth or livery models

 

[Eva]

Updates to the GTPlanet thread: You may now reserve your place in the 2015 AUEC season. Please have a variety of numbers available in your mind because any driver can reclaim their current number for next year.

 

[rcb929]

Fun race tonight. Really enjoy the series. I can't wait till next week.

 

[Spirit]

Why are my little brother and I's numbers already reserved??

 

[Eva]

Hardy told me that when he asked back in April that you wanted them just in case

 

[TeamEdge702]

Fun race tonight. Really enjoy the series. I can't wait till next week.

You should of stayed they re-did the race.

 

[rcb929]

You should of stayed they re-did the race.

I know. I had to go. But I will still keep all the points I scored when I raced.

 

[Eva]

No. AUEC Charter states if a race is redone, all previous results are considered prequalifying, which means since you didn't complete the race technically, you were scored as in 8th position.

Well ok then. I won pre qualifying.

 

[Eva]

Last night, despite how frantic it may have been for some, restored my faith in cshardy62096. He owned up to his mistake, and corrected it in the way the charter specified.

 

[Eva]

Standby all X2014 Jr NTC drivers: The full schedule for 2014 will be revealed the day of the Special Stage Route X race.

 

[Eva]

Further update on the Super GT Championship: We desperately need drivers, so everyone is asked to ask around.
Also, a success ballast will be used to kerb a team from dominating. If a driver gets pole position, that driver must add 25 kg of ballast and that team must add 20 kg. If the same driver wins, he/she must add 50 kg more for the next event, while the team adds 30 kg. If a driver from a different team wins, then the qualifying ballast applies to those two drivers and their teams.

@BRRT_Angel Have you seen the first race replay. It was an epic fight between me and robertlm89 AKA: @123yokomo

 

[Eva]

Yeah. Good racing. I hope to see it actually count at Cape Ring.

Yeah well I guess I drove my a** off for an hour for nothing. Oh well; the rules are the rules.

Not really, you still got points, and every point counts.

 

[rcb929]

Well I could of had 25 points instead of just 4. But it's whatever. I can't argue.

 

[Spirit]

I love how everyone feels compelled to drive in the top classes, no matter the series. Hilarious thing is when they end up dropping out!

 

[Eva]

CriminalMdoc Racing is my only worry. Frostfire Racing has loads of SGT experience, as does BRRT. CMS and DPR are toss ups. My eyes are personally on GT300. It's hard being in my position, because I either race, or review. Can't do both.

 

[Eva]

I just got an e-mail from Hardy. For Diablo Pantera Racing drivers, this may be something to jump at for next year:

"With Diablo Pantera Racing closing its doors officially on December 31, 2014, I am offering each driver a seat in Scuderia Aguila. Scuderia Aguila, Spanish for Eagle Motorsports was a team my aunt (Elise's mother) ran before her death in 2012. I've used it as a side effort for Cherokee Motorsports just as a relief Seeing as all of DPR's team members will need a ride, this is a chance to get a secure drive with a team that has team provisionals already lined up. Cherokee Motorsports will use the same cars as Scuderia Aguila for testing purposes and we will share the same test track in Trial Mountain Circuit. Scuderia Aguila has one provisional lined up for the following:
2015 Total Endurance Championship season (PC and GT)
2015 12 Heures du Mans (PC as previous defending champion)
2015 Indianapolis 500 (1 entry based on 2012 team championship)
I hope all DPR teammates consider this door for next year before it becomes an open enrollment."

 

[Eva]

In regards to Scuderia Aguila, an anonymous representative has e-mailed the following:
"Scuderia Aguila wishes to clarify that it is NOT cooperating with Cherokee Motorsports outside of pre season testing. The Scuderia has its own testing facilities and testing programme centered around HSR and GVS. We have test drivers already assigned and they have been at work since last December. If possible, we hope to get at least two drivers so we can run a gauging race this current season...DPR drivers are not our only target, but they are considered priority due to free agency. All of our targets will be contacted in the next 14 days."

Looked at the website a little bit ago. I have to give Suji, Kunimitsu, Alex, Keisha, and Tyler props for how good it looks. My shoutout to them for constructing it within two weeks.
