[Akmuq]

HSV for me.

I didn't think drivers would have the time to put in time to create a setup, test the setup and work on it with TOCA starting and NASCAR races too.

I'm letting two of each car of each manufacturer to out solve this issue.

 

[joetruckv8]

I think I can make this, but need to test some cars out 1st' 👍

Sign me up for the GT300 Subaru Cusco, but if the turn out is looking more GT500 and there is a seat left I will most likely want to switch over. I will be starting my practice session in a GT500 chassis just in case. I don't really need much practice if I drive the Cusco since I just had a 200km race here recently.

Put me in for Team Lexus Premium. I have not decided on what specific car I'll use, yet.

[TDZdave]

I'm seeing 2 dates, which date is it?

 

[Chqr]

I'm seeing 2 dates, which date is it?

Apologies, next Tuesday as I'm still hunting for more drivers.

 

[ENDURANCEGUY]

This race is too early. I don't get back home until 3:30 PM EDT. I'll have to drop out, unless the date has changed to a Sunday or Saturday. Or after 3:30 PM EDT works good with me.
~ENDURANCEGUY

P.S. What is the minimum amount of drivers you need to confirm the race?

 

[TDZdave]

I'm keen for Tuesday, Put me down for GT500, get back to you on the car, either be a supra or a skyline,

 

[LancerEvo7]

Put me as a reserve in the Garaiya, I may or may not be home and I may or may not have power at race time.

Hey, mate. No problem

Okay, no worries.

Hmmm, 7.30pm GMT it is. We'll wait if you're running late.

I'm looking for around 5 in each class at least, that'll be a good number. I honestly think we could get 12 at least in total.

 

[LancerEvo7]

If we're going with 7:30 GMT, I can definitely make it if we have power. We'll have to see how bad Sandy is, though.

Hold tough mate. 👍

I'm just going to poke my nose through some touring car and nascar series to grab some drivers. We're looking good.

 

[neljack]

Ill be any Nissan Super GT Chqr, 7.30 race start, will have to get my tea sharpish

We'll extend qualifying to ensure we get all the drivers in so don't worry.

castrol toms supra please

 

[Chqr]

castrol toms supra please

Nice to have you onboard and sure

Also guys, are the GT500s more popular so should we make it just a GT500 race?

 

[Storm_SP17]

I'm gonna go with the Lexus Weds Sport IS350

 

[LancerEvo7]

I think we'll get enough GT300s by race time. Besides, less people means less possibility of connection issues.

Of course I hope I have time for testing, but the fact that is tuning prohibited fires me up! Will be a great drivers battle 👍
