I'm wanting to say it was 1:34? I don't have the times on hand at the moment and things have changed since then so it might be faster.

I thought it was something between 1:33 and 1:36. Pretty sure the GT300's was a 42.
 
I was thinking that because yesterday, I did a 33.1 with the La Sarthe setup. (With the ballast already installed)

I'm going to test more setups to fit the ballast.
You're carrying more ballast than most so GT500 in general should be diving into 1:30 territory.
 
On S2 news, I'm almost certain about a few things.
1) I most likely will be moving into GT300. It needs solid racers that will be there every week, so why not.
2) Races will be time limited to 90 minutes. (Le Mans ran for 95 minutes)
3) GT500 Class will have four car options available between Honda, Lexus, Nissan, and Mazda.
4) GT300 Class will continue to have a fairly enormous car list due to it being the cheaper privateer class.
5) Season 2 will be eight races long. 6 Japanese races, 2 international dates, and an exhibition.
Any thoughts? Please share. I want all of the feedback!
 
1) No! No! No! :lol: Only joking :cheers:
2) Best solution as it means that GT300 cars will finish. It will recognise them as being * Laps down instead of just going round and round until the clock expires.
3 & 4) 👍
5) Simulated 24 hours? Maybe a one to two hour race with a complete day/night cycle?

I'm still aiming for realism. I'm not entirely against it, but unless each of us install a nether portal in our cars, I don't want to seem like we're going for acid.

Fair enough, that was the only idea I had (since these bloody GT300's won't take Snow Tyres...) :cheers:

A rally race would have been appealing for the exhibition, but GT doesn't know them rally skills yet. However, I am making the exhibition worth something, not much but something. Just deciding which hellhole of a track to host it on. :lol:

Sierra with 100% monsoon weather? I probably won't race it then. :lol:
 
If its not too late to sign up part time:
#16/ doomstorm16/ Nissan GTR GT500
It isn't too late to sign up, but we're trying to find GT300 drivers right now.
What about a race at Monte carlo
Too narrow.
What circuit are we going for the Fuji race? Fuji F or Fuji GT?
Fuji F
Another street circuit perhaps? Madrid reverse is one of my favorites in the city category.
It will be considered.
 
Current entry list for Fuji looks like this, pending a couple of answers from other drivers.
GT500 Entry List
#4-Dcrimnal
#7-BRRT_Angel

#21-syntorz
#76-NinjitsuEvolved

*-Denotes pending later confirmation.
Since you shorted the races to 300k, I can definitely make the races, I was worried because they were long and might interfere when NASCAR starts, but not anymore (:
 
Season 2's calendar is looking like this...
Exhibition: 07 June 2015/TBA 300km/TBA/2:00 p.m.
Round 01: TBA 2015/Fuji 300km/Fuji International Speedway/2:00 p.m.
Round 02: TBA 2015/Motegi 300km/Twin Ring Motegi/2:00 p.m.
Round 03: TBA 2015/Tsukuba 300km/Tsukuba Circuit/2:00 p.m.
Round 04: TBA 2015/Tokyo 300km/Tokyo R246 Street Circuit/2:00 p.m.
Round 05: TBA 2015/Sapporo 300km/Autumn Ring/2:00 p.m.
Round 06: TBA 2015/Suzuka 300km/Suzuka International Circuit/2:00 p.m.
Round 07: TBA 2015/TBA 300km/TBA/2:00 p.m.
Round 08: TBA 2015/USA 300km/TBA/2:00 p.m.

Things to note about the calendar:
1) There's always a gap in the calendar every 900km, or from S2 on, every 4.5 hours scheduled.
2) Nurburgring is likely not returning to the calendar as it was in S1 if at all. The GP Strecke has proven to be bland and the other bigger layouts have proven too prone to accidents for inclusion.
3) The exhibition will be at a venue that has time change. The racing from day to night serves as a great way to kick off the season.
4) Round 7 will be a European round, either Madrid, Brands Hatch, Monza, or Red Bull Ring.
5) Round 8 will be an American round, but will need to be a time changing venue. This means either Daytona Road Course, Willow Springs, or Apricot Hill will be the venue. Indy Road Course could be thrown on the table if testing finds it suitable.

And finally, penalties from the Rolex 300km. There weren't any penalties that actually did anything since there weren't any avoidable collisions or repeated off track excursions...but...NearFear, AJHG1000, and Lewismdoc1 were handed a warning to change their number decals to the one specified in pre season, which for GT500 is option D. GT300 still need to use option B unless you are using a car that has a livery or simply cannot be equipped with one. In those cases we'll just pretend.
 
Im happy to drive the Audi R8 team phoenix as well.
The regs for that car are currently in the OP. I will send you a PSN friend request later tonight.
 
I wish you guys were in a Le Mans class, I won't be seeing you on track. :(
I wish I was offered a ride, but that wasn't the case. Running LMGT or LMP2 would have been a blast and I really wanted to run Le Mans.
