Hmmm, OK, I see your point. What does everyone else feel about success penalties? We've decided a lot of stuff as a collective I only feel it's fair to throw this one out there too. The only things I would throw out now are...
1) Any ballast would not be cross-championship. So if you win a race in FWD the ballast you get from that would only apply in the next FWD race. To penalise someone's Lotus because they won in a CR-Z, or any other combination of the cars, seems a bit off to me.
2) I need an idea on a scale. I was thinking BHP reductions going 25, 20, 15, 10, 5 for the top 5 drivers.

1: Agreed, makes sense and helps make it feel like 3 (4?) different championships.
2: Your scale sounds good, does it need to be power? What about weight? you need more weight than power to make a difference so it could be 80/60/40/20/10 (this might need to be adjusted for each car becuase 80KG is >10% on the lotus and a lot less on the Subaru) or similar. In my experience a chunk of weight slows the car down without crippling any one aspect of its driving. You don't lose all your straight line speed and you don't completely ruin your handling but you do slightly compromise both.

OK guys, I've had a number of questions regarding the day that the series is scheduled to run and regarding tuning. I'm conflicted as to what to do. So, in the interest of fairness I'm throwing this one out there. I need two answers from everyone.
1) Which day should the series be run on? (Please provide all days you would be available, preference first)
2) Should we allow tuning? (Allowing tuning will mean that all vehicles can be improved to their highest capability, so all cars will be tuned at their maximum potential with all available upgrades applied. The only restrictions will be no nitrous, even though I don't think these cars can have NOS, and SS tyres)
Reply ASAP please so we can get this finalised hopefully before the track voting concludes and the end of Saturday.
Thanks 👍

No stock is a lot more fun.

OK guys, back after New Year and Christmas, hope everyone had a good one.
Now, the calendar is confirmed bar the first 2 meeting, since we have a three way tie. I need to know which 2 of the following 3 tracks you would prefer.
Tokyo R246
Monaco
Brands Hatch GP
My votes are going to Tokyo and Monaco since we already have Brands Hatch Indy as one for the 8 Rounds.
Thanks guys!

Club on GT6 has been updated with some of the basic information found here, anyone who likes the meeting structure and wishes to compete we have still not started yet, and all drivers are welcome. All we ask for is clean racing.

Given the underwhelming success of me being sat in a lobby for 2 and a half hours on my own having fun looking at nothing, TCRS is apparently not going to gain any kind of momentum what-so-ever. So, I hereby close the series with an eye toward doing something I really want to do instead. Hopefully my next venture will gain some form of momentum, although being honest I'm not holding my breath.
Thanks to those who were committed.
