[FGTA] Global Sports Car Championship -- Test EventFinished

[flip55]

Welcome to the Global Sports Car Championship!
A Federation of Gran Turismo Autosports Series






The Concept
​

Welcome to the test event thread for the Gran Turismo Global Sports Car Series, powered by the FGTA! This will be a multi - class, sports car endurance series. There will be no prototypes, only two classes of sports cars. Group A will be made of GTLM racers, and Group B will be mostly made of powered up GT300 cars, with a few extra additions.

We currently run on Tuesday and Thursday nights, Eastern Standard Time in the US (GMT -4), and it looks like those will be the times we will follow for this series.

This will be an official test event for the series. It will be the first time we have run the two classes together in great numbers. There will be no points on offer for this race. If all goes according to plan, we will start the series on June 19th.

_____________________________________________________________

Did you actually notice a difference with the two? Because I really didn't.

 

[miata13B]

I liked the mid rpm turbo a little better. It fizzles out on top end, but still has the kick of the stage 3 Engine mod.

When I get back, I'll double check things. I believe the turbo gets the figures a little closer to the other cars, so we'll probably do that. I haven't done a head - to - head comparison of the two mods yet.

What time does the race start, I don't see a start time, maybe I'm just overlooking it somewhere...

The schedule is in the series specs, but I did forget to post it up in the forums here.

We will use the same time frame that is listed there. Room should open up at around 11:15pm EST, and then qualifying starts at 11:30 and last for 12 minutes. Race starts immediately after.

Just a few quick things about tonight's race.

Mics will be on, but you probably won't hear me tonight. Got a bug, basically have no voice.

Tonight will be a standing start with the brake check and start lights on.

Other than that, it'll be standard procedure as always. 90 minutes at Grand Valley, 2 stops minimum, 2 tire compounds. Hope to see you guys tonight!
