Welcome to the final running of the Historic Sportscar Racing Series for the GT2 platform. This series is in its fifth season, and has been my favourite GT2 series. The cars are incredibly competitive and we have been lucky enough to have some of the best drivers, and closest competition around. This in all probability is the last of the big GT2 series, so saddle up and hop on. After this series, I will be getting a PS2/GT3, and will be moving on.
Many drivers in the past have chosen to drive multiple cars, with multiple nicks. Feel free to do so here, but just clearly mark what your alter-nick will be so nobody is confused.

General Guidelines and Rules
We expect everybody to race cleanly, and within regular OLR guidelines. The series, including any protests or time inquiries is being run under granturismo.com race guidelines. If you are not familiar with these, please read the OLR FAQ at granturismo.com http://forum.granturismo.com/showth...?threadid=46235
Lack of knowledge of rules is not an excuse to break them.
While this is not a dex certified series, you should be prepared to defend your times with a detailed RTI (I'll give you a format), and in extreme cases, we might require some type of save. While I would like to believe that everybody is honest, a select few have proved me wrong. I generally run most of the cars at each track that is run, and have a pretty good idea of what is possible. I would not recommend trying to pull a fast one here, you will be spotted.
There will be random requests for a detailed RTI, or dex save. The placements of these random RTI will be determined before the start of each race.
I am looking for a couple of volunteers who are PAL users, who can check DEX saves, for those who prefer DEX over RTI.
Save your runs I would highly recommend that you always save your fastest runs, so that you can provide details later on.
You must have two wheels on something paved at all times. This includes the curbs, rumbles strips and the two paved sections on the inside of the curbs at Rome Night. For the purpose of this series, if you can see more than two wheels off the track from the above replay view, the time is invalid. ANY touch of any wall, guardrail, building.. regardless of how hard will rule a time invalid.
