What's the Ferrari's season 3 spec? I'm using Season 2 spec, 460/1300 and I got a 1:22.2 with mediums in SSR5.

Spot race link in my signature. That will be the debut of the season 3 specs, which the Ferrari is quick again, so we will have to slow it down.
 
I think the DP's should be equaled out as well. They are similar, but there is some differences. The Sauber is particularly easy to drive. The Nissan I think is fastest in a straight line. The Toyota is in the middle. If they stay the same it's fine, but you may want to think about a 10kg 10hp difference between some of them.

I think they're fine.

But I really do need to know who is switching classes. Make sure you can drive a DP car with race mediums and no TC, abs on 1.
 
Sounds like the rosters will stay the same. I think someone would have spoken out by now if they were making a switch. Someone is going to prove me wrong now.

Shin said he's switching, but that's not super new news.

Thread won't be up today, I have some things we need to get figured out.

*cough* stewards *cough*

The DP class had awesome specs this year.

I agree, the -20KG and medium tires will have us driving on ice this season! I'm already scared about turn 1 on the first lap at Daytona!

I know what you mean. :scared:

Was anyone dissatisfied with DP specs this season? Let me know if I'm wrong here because DP specs was the ONE thing that wasn't argued over on this thread.

It helps that they all raced in the same series, which made two of the three practically the same, and the '92 was only a little quicker.

No one had any issues.

GT, well, we're working on it!

Spot race is supposed to be this Saturday. 1 hour before regular Rolex time, it's going to be CRAZY fun! 85 laps around Daytona Road!

I think we might need to push it back another week IMO. We don't even know how many people are participating right?

I think moving it back is a good idea. With me getting the common cold this weekend, I didn't test nearly as much as I'd like. TBH, I just made sure I had all the cars, then figured out that since I took pictures of all of them, of course I had them!

Then I went to watch NASCAR...

You were doing fine until the part about watching NASCAR :dopey: Just kidding, I watch NASCAR every now and then.

I like their road course races. Well... only Watkins Glen! Such a cool track!

If project cars is on the same realism level as GT5, and has a DP car, and the possibility for a GT class, the series may switch over. Because that game has Watkins Glen!

I still want a GT5 series though. :)

Looks cool. I think that I might have to look into buying it.

Back on topic, what is the deal with the NAEC next year? Will it stay the same?

Yep. I think races will be a hour long, NAEC races 1.5-2 hours long.

And is everyone good with the time we have now? Or would moving it up a little be better? I'm going to have to ask Mel what's going on with ITCC season 2.

Starting earlier shouldn't make me miss any more races. I'm fine with the current time though. 👍

Just something to look into. One of the main complaints is the lack of Europe friendliness, and 1 hour really isn't going to help, but it may make a difference.

Actually, this may impact my diner eating...
 
The only thing it would impact is if I decide to squeeze in a round of golf on Saturday between work and the race :dopey: I'm not sure about any other conflicts.

Why change it if it isn't broken? We've had solid turn ups all season, lowest was like 9? Highest was 13ish.

We need a 16 lobby!!!!!!!!

Also, new thread shall be up this week. I'm honestly not sure when. I need another GT steward and f1 2012 comes out Tuesday, and wednesdays don't work for me... So Thursday maybe, but I may have tests Friday....

I still have to do 2 graphics...

I have:

Daytona
Indy
Laguna seca
Tokyo
Suzuka
SSR5
Spa
Nurb gp/f

I still need to do:

Grand valley
Fuji
