Works best for me but the only thing is I gotta work every second Sat so I may not make all the races ... 4-8am in the morning won't work with work schedule and so on ... I gotta get up @ 5:30am to leave for work @ 6:30am to be at work @ 7:30am ...

You're in UST+1, right? Someone didn't look at the geography of South Africa before saying "4-8 A.M." These races would be at the normal ITCC times, but on Fridays.

Lol ... GMT +2 ... Fridays 2 ITCC time is perfect ... 👍
 
Seth has the right idea. I want to test them all, in all weather, and for tire wear, but, if Seth says the specs are somewhat even... I'll use them as a base point. 👍 Seth.
 
Well I still got my heart set on the R32 ...
I'm getting into too many series ... Lol

EDIT: What about possibly adding DTM cars to the line up? We possibly got other AWD RM/TC cars available so what about opening up the field a bit ...

Lol not quite hey ... SuperGT cars can corner at a higher rate than Lmp's so that discards them completely and maybe you can but I can't get a NASCAR to turn on a circuit for the life of me ...

That's right. I enjoy making fun of NASCAR fans in Alabama. Especially the really stupid ones. Keep in mind that I can occasionally enjoy NASCAR.

When you make fun of a NASCAR fan always remember one thing. If they start chasing you, all you have to do is turn right. It works every time.

I should remember that if I ever decide to visit the States ... Lol too

That or turn on a flat corner :dopey:

What about the Lexus IS200?
 
13 separate cars, the IS will probably slot in 310hp 1100kg. In my experience it's good handling but tricky. No torque either. I'll be online soon testing more. There's also the Mazdaspeed 6 TC (4WD). Also note I used mediums for the specs. They last longer and have ample grip.

Thanks. We'll use these as a base line. Everyone, I'd like to run a race, using these specs, Friday at 4:30 PM GMT-5. Please bring your car fully tuned and ready, on Friday the 13th.
 
So is this what I need to bring on Friday the 13th? ... If so could I bring Jason Vorhees with me? :D

Correct. According to Seth's specs, that should be competitive.


In my case, I'm going to set up the BMW 320i Touring Car this week, and decide which track that we're not visiting during the normal season, is a good enough track to race on now. Hmmm, let's make it a fun track.
 
Cool ... just let me know when and where ...

Okay, the "When" is already decided. Screw timezones, it's Friday the 13th at ITCC time. :)

As for where, it needs long straightaways, and fun, intricate corners. We're not going to Indy... Nor most of the original Polyphony Digital tracks. However, considering that we'd be running cars with downforce, and racing tires, I'd like to keep the track somewhat smooth.



Indy
Daytona
Fuji Speedway
Grand Valley
Tokyo R246
Special Stage Route 5


Those are our options.


Shall we discuss these options? I'd like to go to one of the PD original creations.
 
Fuji ... should give us a good indication on the cornering and top speed abilities of the cars ... just to make sure that they are evenly matched ... IMO
 
Daytona RC or Fuji. Daytona will test brakes more than anything else. Will Fuji have the chicane or not?

I'll take the Mazda RX-7 TC as my choice of car. What mods are allowed?
Friday the 13th sounds great to me. Always had good luck on that day. :)

If we ran Fuji, I'd run the chicane.

Also, any upgrades are allowed, but don't run above the given specs.
 
I don't have any mods except on the FWD cars. They should be 320hp 1000kg not 325hp. ALSO the ST (SUPER TOURING) FTO and IMPREZA are the fastest around turns so drop their power to 295hp 1160kg for each.
 
Okay sorry guys, I have been away from my home for the past 3 days and everything seems a little confusing to me. Has the HP limit changed and the weight limit. As in, can I still run my Integra at 276HP and default weight? Or is everything after being changed? O.o I am really sorry about this, I was very busy this week and couldn't catch up on everything on the forums. :(

We're running completely different cars now.


The main thing, is that the original Integra you signed up to use is now, again, in the fray.


  • New cars
  • Race day- Friday July 13th preseason test
  • I'm announcing a points system now
