VCRC Vintage Sprint Tournament - complete...

Cote Dazur
Yes it does 👍, but I could not see VCRC events in it, so I was wondering if we had an other calendar specific to VCRC.

I also try to keep track using the subscribed feature, if there is no calendar with VCRC events, I will manage other wise, no problem.:cool:

I am adding them all to the calendar.
APPEND: I added them to the calendar. 👍

Also, in the VCRC forum (members only) there's a Lancia discussion happening in the thread relevant to this tournament. 👍

Is this 3am GMT time?

There's 3 event schedules to choose from. All are the same, but at different times.

If your time zone is GMT, these are the events to choose from.

Sunday Event
Sunday March 11th
@ 7:30pm GMT

GMT Event
Monday March 12th
@ 9pm GMT

EST Event
Monday March 12th
Tuesday March 13th
@ (Tues 3am GMT) / (Tues 4am CET)

The EST Event is meant to accommodate those in EST (or Americas time zones). Which is why yes, to you it would be 3am!!

Hope this makes sense.

I put 4 time zones when I post dates/times. PST / EST / GMT / CET
Because that seems to be the time zones that our core active VCRC members are in, and I want them to be able to look at the time and see THEIR time easily. 👍

But time zones do get confusing. :boggled: Sorry. :(

Let me know if there's any car you need. I can usually supply.

Thanks jackargent! You're a real swell fella! :)

VCRC forum (members only), interresting.

I've seen you post in it. You've been there. ;)
You probably don't realize it, but if you're not a member of the social group, you can't see that forum.
If you're wondering what I mean, sign out of GTPlanet, and then try to go to the social group. ;) You'll see it doesn't let you look at it.
We do this so that it's not winding up in searches on Google, and we can plan events and get things sorted out before inviting new people into a cluster-.... LOL
Not meant to be secretive. Just a place where things can be sorted out before getting a bunch of drive-by comments. LOL (Which is what I've seen happen when people try to organize things cooperatively in the public forum. You have a thread a million posts long and it can get confusing.)
 
My entire fleet for this event is now resplendent in raspberry red pearl with lime green metallic wheels

That's impressive!! :lol:

I'm guessing you have quite a few I-Mievs in your garage now. haha :sly:

My "fleet" is in varied colours.
Monza Red Pearl for the Alfa Romeo... I don't know that's a factory colour or not. My Mini is Garnet Red Mica. My Alpine is Alpine Metallic (green). My Elan is Butterscotch.
Oh, but I chose another Stratos... and it's painted Avorio & Avorio (which is some kind of NOT bright white). It looks pretty sharp. I thought white might be easier to see at Toscana... and I want to be seen!! :lol: I REALLY want to be easily seen. haha. ;)
 
Sent a FR to VCRC and am preparing my cars now. I'm probably going to stick with factory colours for most of my cars. The Alpine has to be Bleu Alpine and the Alfa has to be Rosso Alfa. Painting those cars would feel just a little bit wrong to me. The Mini is in Hawaiian Blue Metallic, which is one of my racing colours, and the Lotus looks good in Royal Blue. The only car I will paint is the Stratos.

Question: Will tire wear be on or off during the event?

Thanks to jackargent i now have 3/5 cars needed, just alpine and elan needed now :)

Send me a FR (PSN: sagarismic). I'll send you a 0/0/0 Elan. I only have high mileage examples of the Alpine 1600 though.

Welcome SagarisGTB
Thanks for offering help with car acquisition! :)

Which event(s)?

Sunday Event
Sunday March 11th @ 11:30am PST / 2:30pm EST / 7:30pm GMT / 8:30pm CET
GMT Event
Monday March 12th @ 1pm PST / 4pm EST / 9pm GMT / 10pm CET
EST Event
Monday March 12th @ 7pm PST / 10pm EST / (Tues 3am GMT) / (Tues 4am CET)

Tire Wear ON.
(I never run races without it on, frankly. I find tire wear off to be rather odd somehow.)
Thanks for bringing the Tire Wear to my attention. I usually have that in the Regulations list. I missed it. Oops. :dopey: OP is fixed now. 👍

I love the factory colours... and most of these cars come with very attractive ones! But I also like to spend time at the paint shop. lol

Alpine sent 40,000 miles ....not bad for age ....only 1000 miles per year.

I believe it was owned by a little old lady who just used it once a week to collect her pension.

:lol:
I would be cautious about that.
I purchased a vehicle some years back that was owned by a little old lady whose oil change was nowhere near due in miles, but way long since the last one...
But the car came sporting a nice little dent in the front right fender from where she repeatedly ran into her mailbox at the end of her driveway. LOL :lol:

I would prefer the earlier GMT to race, 3am is like to early for me.

Mine are just the standard colours, I think.
 
I'll be testing the Lancia Stratos '73 on the Manja Bene track in the VCRC lounge this evening from 7pm CET.
Don't make me translate that into your weird timezones.

I will see if i can remember to be online at that time too.

Thanks for the stratos and alpine jack. FR sent to you sagarismic. Thanks v much.
 
Just a reminder about the VCRC Lounge:

Note: The VCRC account is just the club lounge account. It will rarely be signed on.
In order to check the lounge, you must click on the coffee cup,
and wait for the room content list to present.
No yellow people icon will show, even when the room is full.


Wish I could join you, but he who shares my ps3 has a race @ 1pm EST / 7pm CET *sigh* haha

Sadly won't make practice tonight as I am in the same race as he who shares w/melons ps3. Some form of madness has made me enter ferrari 458 race. Far too fast for me! I'm scared.:crazy::nervous::ill:

Clearly, you two need a second PS3.

Actually bender2011 has a double header today... Low HP League Euro division race, then heads right to the Ferrari race.
:boggled:

I have been toiling in the garden. haha
 
The timing's not the best for me, but I'd like to give it a go!

kcheeb / kcheeb / Sunday March 11th @ 11:30am PST / 2:30pm EST / 7:30pm GMT / 8:30pm CET
 
I might be able to make the Monday night races...but I don't know if I still have all the cars unmodified.
