MTCC test session tonight 20:30 GMT

Evening guys and gals, will be conducting one last test session for the upcoming MTCC tonight before the media day next week. Usual time of 20:30 lobby open, using standard MTCC format. Will be using various circuits from the upcoming championship. Please bring the car you’ll be running too.

A few rule changes to test in particular before heading into media Day.

-boost will be switched off completely.
(I think we’re all similarly skilled so the racing should be close without need for this)

-3 Tyre compounds will be available for each race.
(I want to test the performance of Soft, Medium and Hard tyres for the 3 races. The advantages of each should be fairly obvious and this will hopefully add an element of strategy given that there’ll be no fuel stops)

Hopefully will see a lot of you there, at any rate it should be some fun racing
