Hey RESH. Car specs were asked for but we are unable to choose our own as tuning prohibited will be selected in the race lobby right?
No, tuning is open and Qualifying will solve the cheaters :).
 
interesting concept, shame I'm completely booked for the rest of this month,
 
Darn, another event I want to do in the wrong week :( had it been March 15 and a bit earlier I would do this. Though I have a few ideas for classes
 
I'm a bit confused should we all be racing the same series of cars?

Don't really quite get thet but you register a class from one of your own race series and choose 3 drivers (allowed to pick yourself) from that series to enter the race.

Hey RESH, the length of the race is too long for a few of our members. We will have to bow out. We didn't really calculate the time until we were practicing last night. Apologies for the stir-up. Thank you.

Hmmm... but 141 laps is 1000km.
Maybe we can trim to Cape Ring 700km (100 laps).
 
By popular demand it is now Cape Ring 424km (60 Laps).

I'm gonna show a poll soon.
 
This is turning out to be the opposite of what I thought...

I'm sorry, I see no value in this anymore. I don't know how to explain it, but, 60 laps is a long time for the number of cars in a class.

Seriously, if you want to make a fun racing series, you make it short, or you put 16 cars in a class and have close racing. But, if you've got three cars in a class, and one spins and the other disconnects, it's race over and boring hotlapping begins.
 
This is ment to be a group of series meeting together, if we do 1 or 2 series only then wheres the meeting point?
If we just get random racers in a certain car, that is not a series get, together at all.
 
I like your concept. It gets racers on track that normally don't race each other. Everyone in our group has sting connections so disconnects are not likely. I hope more people can join up. Looking forward to the race
 
I think trimming the race down to 424km was a pretty good move :). Thanks E46Envy.
 
so do you have diff series racing each week and take it in turns?

or does each series bring there cars and race against eachother?

I believe it's the latter. Consider me interested.

So let me get this right.. you bring 3 Toca cars and i bring 3 BST cars and we race for an hour?? sorry but that dont seem fair. or am i just totally missing something?
 
Well I'm handing prizes if a class meets a certain condition (not just overall wins).

Questions RESH:

Is false start activated?

Blue paint after last turn...are all 4 tired allowed on this blue run off?

Statement to a question? My crew does not run 4 tires beyond curbs towards off track. However, the blue paint after last turn at Cape Ring seems to suck the car in. A second area is rough, the left hander/small tight chicane after the right turn hexagon shape section, hard to not run onto dirt. How do you feel about these area's, and how do you feel about about 4 tires to the outside of the curbs towards off tracks?

Thanks man.
 
Updated OP with the prizes.

No, false starts is off.
Yes, I'll allow all 4 wheels on the blue paint.
 
I'm considering entering at least one series into this. I'll get back to you on it.
 
Hmmm. Consider my interest piqued.

Do to how much preparation that would be needed I'm not sure we could make this by next week. We would need 2 wks to 4 wks to properly get ready. We have Jstc & Gate next Saturday, and a pre blancpain event on Sunday. If you run this with more time to get prepared maybe I can make something happen, but next week is definitely too soon.

-Sorry Fellas, but I love the idea and would be open to it with more time in advance.
