New handicap system I like to try on race 3 if we have enough cars racing, the top half finishes from race 2 will start race 3 with RM (or RH), together with the club handicap system and reverse grid start should make the race very close/fun/tactical!

Honda HSV-010 is welcome to race with GT500.

Next Sunday is Thanksgiving and full racing is probably not possible. I should be able to get in the first race maybe the 2nd race but not likely the third. Hopefully I won't get kicked out again and I can actually race. Starting close to on time this week would give me the widest racing window...Bob
 
Change of format from 21st Oct, now only 1 track and 2 races, but 2nd race is now over 1 hour long. New Handicap system, should close up the racing even more.

5) Handicap system:

- ‘The Club’ the top finishes of each race will start the next race with:
3rd 542BHP
2nd 532BHP
1st 522BHP


- ‘KGC’ the last 3 finishes (or last 2 finish if there are only 8 cars or less racing on the next race) of each race will start next race on 1060kg.

- Top half finishes of race 1 can not start race 2 with racing soft tyres
 
Hey, I'd like to join this event if possible. Car: P Nissan XANAVI NISMO GT-R (SUPER GT) '08 if it's available. Looking to get my feet wet in the online racing scene, Twistedfirework recommended this event.

Welcome, yep we know Twisted, been racing with him for many months. You will get wet racing with us LOL, remember to send FR to m1racing:tup:
 
Madrid this Sunday.

New handicap system has worked very well, gives one hour of very close racing, you just don't know who is winning until the last few laps.

We may have the Tire wear/fuel consumption on high, more pit stops more fun!:)
 
Im interested in signing up what cars are avalable to.run so i know my choices and who do i send a fr to
Thanks

Welcome South, you can use any GT500 car on the OP, there is no limit and you can change car any time, even between race 1 and race 2, no problem. It is only fair for everyone to pick their choose of weapon as and when they wish. It has worked our very well, no one can complain about not having the best car.

You need to send FR to m1racing:tup:
 
Question what are the bhp and weight regs for the cars so i know i didnt see them posted
Thanks

562 BHP and 1120kg

Some updated after testing last night.

Tyre wear will be set to high, I think 3 or 4 stops.

Stealth GT500 are also allowed.
 
JoeTruckV8/JoetruckV8/Xanavi Nismo GTR

With 2 holiday days available I should have just enough time to get this car ready for Sunday!
 
GBRC tyrrell / tyrrell_ / 2003 Woodone TOM'S Toyota Supra (if it isn't taken)

Welcome tyrrell, Supra is fine, you can also change car any time too, even use different car on race 2. It is the driver (using all available tools ) that win races in our Sunday race night. It is only fair that everyone can use any car/tyre/pit stop etc etc :)
 
Yea I'll be testing out the Denzo Sard Lexus, and Nismo Z also for tire wear, and or faster lap times. To get a pit window plus my car setup I will be doing very long practice sessions on Friday all day long for anyone who want's to join me? I have a few of you on my psn buddy list so feel free to link up for a simulated practice run to square out any last minute adjustments.

I may even have some target lap times up by tonight as well!

That looks like a lot of hard work :)

2 weeks ago (tyre/fuel setting on high, 1 hour race) most of us ran out of fuel twice lol

I think the Z will be faster, but the Lexus could be better on tyres.

I had a quick test last night, 1:10 was best I could do. Can't practice today, see you on Sunday.
 
I took out the Xanavi GTR for a spin and clock a 1:10.2xx. I'll be working on pit strategy for the most part of this day and suspension tomorrow. The finger pump from using my ds3 will be killing me here at the Autumn Ring. Much to report later!

I finished up my P1 session with a best lap of 1:09.683, but I put race pace for me at low 1'10's. I'm still not sure if I'm going to run soft/med for race 1 or soft/soft for race 1. I can make it on softs practicing by myself but duking it out with other drivers may make me burn more tire and if that's the case I will have to go soft/med for a safe finish. Med tires are 1.5 secs off pace, and I can run fast laps up to around lap 8 on softs so I'm still deciding here. Anyways I'll report back after my P2 session tomorrow night.

Good fun race last night, thanks M1! Turnout could've been better, but could've been worse too. :)

Looking forward to next time out, if I can make it!

It was one of the worse turnout, and biggest finishing gap for a very time. Top 3 or 4 cars are normally within 20 to 30s, last Sunday OMG Alonso was mad after losing the title to Vettel lol. Lets hope he will be cool down by next week.

Next Sunday LM cars, signup:
