Ok. I am lost. So does that mean the laps are going to be shorter and more lenient tire wear or is it going to be the same? Also, I can qually on RS and then start the race on RM or I still can't do that? Ugh. My head hurts.

1. (tire wear) Tire wear should stay roughly the same. It definitely will not get more aggressive.
2. (qualifying) Everyone will now qualify on the same compound (RS)
3. (race start) you may start the race on whichever compound you would like. you are no longer required to use the same tire you qualify on to start the race.

@PApunk924 should I post the division list?

Welcome Bronze drivers, you guys deserve to be in this fight, you've seen some MASSIVE improvements and don't feel for a second like you wont be fighting with the usual silver suspects for victories, some of you already scare me (in a pace way, not in a punt me off way lol) :cheers::cheers:

You may want to rethink that last statement :sly:

The BoD needs everyone's help with the season 9 schedule. We are undecided whether or not to take a break from Barcelona for a season. Please give us your thoughts and help us out.

Pretty well known track! What's the pros\cons for it?

IMO, I see no reason to remove it from the lineup.

I'm usually an advocate for Barcelona as it's one of my favorites but, I'm good with a change of scenery.
What are you thinking?
A second Laguna race?
Kyoto? Willow Springs? Alsace?
 
I like Barca, but only have run it once (with disastrous results...that was my infamous tire-smoke race)...so I say it should stay!!!

Do we dare run Special Stage Route X? Haha...just kidding.

Recommendations from me....Fuji GT course (shortcut), nurb GP, Mount Panorama....there's no Silverstone in this GT unfortunately!!
