not until the end of February mate, I got way to much going on at the moment to do it before then, races will be on weekends,
 
should be Saturday's mate,

Any idea what time though? I just don't want to commit unless I can make it to all or most races

Also, I'd like to race the Ford Falcon
 
^yeah, i know.

i could make a new op pic if you want. I'm fairly good at photoshop and i think i could make one without the white areas on the logos and maybe updated pics.

btw: barbagallo could be deep forest, it matches the proposed lengthen of the track quite well:

isn't it cool how cape town matches cape ring, in name and track?

oh, you record out cars? I should have made up my mind! Sorry about that.

New OP picture, I wish I had Photoshop, I just use MS paint :lol: so in the interest of making this more professional feel free to create something more tidy,

Is that the new Barbagallo, or proposed changes to it?
They just spent all the money for Bunbury Formula nippon circuit upgrading the pits,

And why would they make the inner loop look like a set of T-Bags?

I wish they would ask people who have driven the circuit how they think it should be changed, I think the northen end of the circuit need's more banking on the outside of the centre or the turn, and turn 1 needs some banking on the outside leading in and through the centre, flatten off at exit, makes it a power Vs grip battle,

also, don't worry about the sign up's in the OP, that is just a reminder to me to shoot e-mails when everything is finalized,

proposed. I search all the tracks to see how they compared to your decisions (great ones btw!) for barbagallo, this came up, said proposed.

TDZ, I have bad news, I can only afford to run one series and it's either this or JSTC.
Im waiting to see what improvements JSTC is going to have.
I'll let you know at a later date how it goes. :(
 
tdz, i'll make the op pic if you can give me photomode pics of:
both camaro ss
both isf
c5r
camaro lm
and clk

I have the rest.
 
ok cool mate, keep an eye on the thread as we are still determining spec's, dates and times,
 
Sorry, I forgot to put "TDZdave presents..." on the pic.

Also, we've been in robe for a week, thats not too far from victor harbor (same coast area in sa)
 
Its cool, if it all falls in a pit I'm washing my hands of it :lol: just hoping someone can double check my spec's before we go any further,

last time I went to robe we lived on fresh caugh snapper for 4 days, caught from the pier, we go down to beachport now, even though we live on the beach, occasionally I go up to Mildura a few days a year,
 
v8sc won't fail, but the other two might. I've been working on my own oz tc race, but haven't released it yet.

edit- you could add the c6 rms (z06 & zr1) as they are much like the c6r, correct? if its too fast, just use tuned c6 corvettes, as the race model doens't make may changes too the body.

edit2- Weds Sport IS350! What about that? we have the other ises. What about old ISes? IS 200 GT-1 Race Car and Altezza Touring?

edit3- am I getting carried away?

Whats the HP on the 3 V8 Super Cars? I don't see it on the front page.
Have you thought about adding the #91 Dodge Viper to the V8 Super Cars? Just a thought. :)
 
Don't worry^^ You might change your mind after re-spec. (Thats why I haven't even gotten my car yet, but I have enough cash.

WedsSport IS is MR? according to GTPedia. Is this true? If So don't include it, v8sc is fr only. What about old ISes? IS 200 GT-1 Race Car and Altezza Touring? wait, they won't be v8 will they?

I'll check these later.
 
All these car's were spec'd with maximum tuning part's available, please keep in mind the PP level's are there to keep aero down,


new spec's for modern muscle, 680BHP @1400KG, Camaro SS '10 must not exceed 616PP
Camaro at 616PP keep's the aero point's down to 15 front and 30 rear, equal to the dodge,

new spec's for classic muscle, 550BHP @ 1285KG suggested, neither car can exceed 590PP
590PP keep's aero/ BHP in check, but how you tune aero/ bhp is entirely up to you,

and now spec's for v8 supercar category, All engine tuning is allowed,
PP level's are here to limit down force point's for some car's,
Lexus IS-F Racing concept, 700BHP @ 1350KG, 628PP
Lexus IS-F RM, 634BHP @ 1350KG, 622PP
Ford Falcon XR8, 640 @ 1350KG, 625PP
Corvette C5R, 590BHP @ 1339KG, 618PP
Camaro LM, 600BHP @ 1360KG, 616PP
Merc CLK TC, 575BHP @ 1200KG, 615PP,

the CLK may not be added to the car list pending further testing,

Here is the HP's guys, but as I have said before I need someone to double check them, now the PP on all of the car's will be out but that wont change the HP and weight,

The RM corvettes weren't put in as the have 35 points of downforce on the nose, this wouldn't be fair to corvette user's, plus their weight is too low, its to hard to find the balance, as for the IS-F RM and the falcon, the IS-F is almost the same weight and same HP but its more aero friendly and makes its time down the straights,

the IS-200 and LM car's are 4 cylinder touring car's with maximum 20 points of downforce on the nose,

Guy's, please just trust the vehicle choice, they are the closest car's I can pull out of that group, and the idea is to have all manufacturer's covered, IS-F RM= Nissan Altima, IS-F Concept= Toyota Camry, Ford Falcon V8 supercar= don't be a bone head, and the corvette/ Camaro= General motor's,
 
Seriously if I needed to explain that car I would kick people from the series,
