Another question, how are the points payouts structured for each of the races? Shouldn't there be the same points payouts based on the finishers of the races in each class?
 
What I am thinking and I will need to talk with the others is that we should just have an overall champion and not an individual one as it takes ages to score for three different groups

Then why do you have 2 different classes then? If your gunna score it like that then you should just run 1 class? Just my 2 pennies on that! Lol.

I mean I don't care either way, I understand it is a lot of work, time and commitment. I wish I could help out more if I was able to know when I could and could not race every other week! Unfortunately, there is that thing called a J.O.B that makes my situation difficult to say I would be there for sure every race? I really wish I could. I just can't right now as work trumps all. Lol. I need to win the lottery! Haha.

Agreed.
It's also easy to score a lot of points when there's no more than 3 cars in the same class(GTD).I won in the GTD class at De La Sarthe by finishing dead last. lol

GTD is for the faster people. We just label GTD to keep you fast guys in different cars then us slowpokes. Because what it you had a GTLM and we where also in a GTLM then would it even be close:)

I also agree. Part of me realizes that to be successful in this series tuning your car correctly is paramount. It affects everything from basic handling and tire wear all the way to advanced pit strategies and more. Maybe just one class is the way to go. Through the diversity of the car/track selections the goal is to ensure that every CAR has no clear season long advantage regardless of driving/tuning skill. We should do a test race on a day best suited for attendance.

BTW, Jake, any word on moving to every week?

Attn: all GT1 Drivers, we will be testing and practicing for Season 3 on Thursday Jan 22.

Pick your cars if you haven't done so already.

It's not required, but rather encouraged.. Also, not sure when our next Friday event is..:dunce:

💡.. if were not racing this Friday, then maybe this practice should be Friday then..
So as to not interfere with Spec Series Practice..

Just to clarify what I meant when I said "why don't you just run one class" when @Jakedog23 said it took forever to score 3 different classes.
First off, what are the 3 classes? I am only aware of the 2 being the GTD & GTLM. What's the third? With that said, I was not saying that you should just go to one class. I think that's what makes this series different from others and I'm all for the two different classes. I was trying to say because it takes some time to do the scoring with the different divisions and @Jakedog23 suggested having just one champion, then in my humble opinion that defeats the purpose of 2 classes and I would not like to see it go to just 1 class. Just my opinion.
:cheers: Cheers
 
Sorry never was able to answer that. But the list of scoring was GTLM, GTD, and Overall.
And what the GTD class was is being able to limit D1-4's amazingness and give us slow guys a chance. But if you want me to, I will score for GTLM, GTD, and overall

Its not my call nor am I trying to change anything. Just trying to get a grasp on how things are going to ran cause it changes alot and hard to keep up with. No one's fault by any means. Just part of the growing pains of starting a series like this. I think it has tons of potential and I know people who want to join but are a little apprehensive still cause it's still in the Beta phase per say.
Once the series gets a little more established, who says you have to all the duties? Are you doing all the duties currently? Hosting, scoring, replays etc.?
 
My Season 3 Entry
Name/PSN Username: CAMikaze/GTP_CAMikaze
Class: GT-LM
Car: Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren '09
Car #: 1 or 38 - See Question Below

So who gets to have the #1 on their Numberplate for this season, the prior seasons GT-LM, GT-D or Overall Champion?

I am still working on that @Jakedog23 . I will get you all that info by Friday once I have a little more time to test and tune all the cars I'm interested in. I am going to be @ the test/tune on Thurs. & Fri. that @euclid58 suggested. I think it would be great to have as many as possible there so we can also discuss as a group everyones ideas, thoughts etc. collectively. If you need all that info before then for reasons I'm unaware of, then let me know. This much I can tell you.

GTP ID: DCschwinn / PSN ID: dcschwinn
Class: GTLM
Car: *Something in the GTLM class
Colors: *Primer at the moment :sly:
Car number: #5
