What's wrong with twitch? Are we talking about live streaming or just making a video?

Well, @Brutaka was looking for someone to make a video of Motegi 1.5. Then @P1K3Y_M1k3Y mentioned he wanted someone to stream the RoC. Which leads us here.
Nothing wrong with Twitch, it's just that the preferred service here seems to be Livestream.

Is Livestream a service or are you just talking about live streaming a race? If just streaming that's what twitch is for. Big companies pull 250,000+ viewers on there.

Ok I understand now 👍Live stream is just a service (sounding similar to Twitch), I will have to check Twitch out and see what one looks the better service

I had an idea for my first official racing series in the FGTA, A Eurasian Touring series, utilizing cars and tracks from Europe and Asia. All cars would have the same weight but different HP (Maybe stock HP). Races would be two 30 minute races a day. If this plan was to go forward it would probably start in the fall. Let me see how successful my Motegi Endurance race goes first. Send me PM's if you are interested.

@DCWANTCASHView attachment 159669ABOUT US
Welcome
Before signing up to be an FGTA driver please take the time to thoroughly read all the below information and ensure you are clear on our rules and regulations.
If you have any questions after reading all the information, feel free to ask.
We are also open to, and welcome all comments and suggestions you may have.
___________________________________________________________________________________________
The FGTA was created by three Gran Turismo players who met on GTPlanet. Two of which currently host their own race series on GTPlanet. (@P1K3Y_M1k3Y -> WGTC + @Glenalz81) The third creator, @gtpcaine, is a co-host in the WGTC and the one responsible for our website (currently under construction). Between us, we came up with the FGTA.
The FGTA is basically a governing body for online racing. Similar to the FIA in real life racing. Events run by the FGTA all share the same core regulations, and attitude to racing. One of the reasons the FGTA was formed, was to make things simpler and easier to access for the members of our race series.
The general members are the most important thing to us. We are always interested in what you have to say. Whether it's about this thread, our website, or an individual race series. Get in touch with us if you have any feedback. Things you like, things you don't like, all is welcome!
___________________________________________________________________________________________
OUR AIM
The aim of the FGTA is to bring as many variations of Race Series' together under one banner. Resulting in a wide range of enjoyment for an ever growing member base. With all events following the same core regulations, it allows drivers to chop and change between different styles of racing without having to remember different sets of rules for the different championships.
As we have only just formed this governing body, out current target is to build up our reputation for good, clean racing. Which is what everyone who races online is after. This can only be achieved by our largest feature. The community. It's the commitment and attitude of the general members who make running in a race series fun and worthwhile.
So, want to help make the best race series out there? Then please sign up and enjoy yourselves!

THIS THREAD
Once complete this thread will have all the links and information (including general FGTA rules and regulations) you will need to become a FGTA driver or even series organizer.
This thread should be the main hub of communication between the FGTA series organizers and their drivers for general discussion and future series information. Drivers are always welcome and encouraged to put ideas and suggestions forward to the series organizers and all ideas and suggestions will be considered.
Please feel free to introduce yourself to us, you don't even have to want to join any of our current series or even apply to become a driver (unless you wish to race) although there is spaces in our current series and many many, more series coming in the future once all the FGTA features and details are complete (details below)
___________________________________________________________________________________________
OUR WEBSITE
Watch this space as we will slowly be releasing information about our website. I would like to include what features and advantages we would like you to have and will try to include for you as both a driver and race director.
Some things I know are already know I are going in are:
News section - for all the most up to date news and information.
Race series and calendar - All our race series in one place and full race calendar.
Stats - All the series and driver stats in one place.
Media - Where anyone can post their favorite pictures and videos.
We are also aiming to build a full database of car specs and regulations for various types of series using various types of cars at various level's of power, meaning you should be able to find the right set of cars and regulations for your series with already balanced spec's. This will take time and help from other race directors would help with this.

CURRENT FGTA RACE DIRECTORS
Any of our committed drivers are welcome to apply to become an FGTA series organizer, only thing we ask is that you can prove you are able to put the effort needed to host an entire series.
Any current series organizers are welcome to apply for their series to be governed by us, you will keep full control of the series and be responsible for keeping your own GTPlanet series thread and once complete your series will be added to our website (currently under construction) and you will be asked to keep this up to date.

All it means is that you will be given information on any upcoming events or series we host and may even be able to sign up before the thread goes public.

To sign up as an FGTA driver please complete this form.
Please also complete the sign up in the series thread.

Pass, is the honest answer. Mike has had some difficulty with his PS3 and has pulled out of everything. I have now picked up from Mike. The next few days are going to be a little hectic as I get my head around everything that needs to be organised etc etc, but I will get round to getting things up to date and keep on top of things the best I can.btw why my gt300 serie wasn't in the schedule?

FGTA Series Update
We are happy to announce that we have successfully completed our first event at Daytona, which saw a great, close race in both classes from start to finish! We now have five more races left in the series, still time to get maximum points. We would like to find some people interested in competing in our Group B category. This is the slower, less powerful class, but is ultra competitive in cars that are fun to drive!
We are also starting at a new time, as we did this week. Room will open at around 10:15 pm EST. Qualifying will now begin at 10:30 pm EST USA (GMT -4), with the race starting at or around 10:45 pm. That is one hour earlier than was initially planned. We are still racing on Thursdays.
Click the banner above to head over to the forum. All car and race specs can be found there. The next race will be 90 minutes at Tokyo R246. Any questions, feel free to post and ask. Hope to see you guys out there!

The VWSC is now being renamed as the FGTA Stock Car Championship (SCC)
Same principle but just allows us to use different cars in different seasons
