WeatherTech Hat-Trick Championship

photo by @paoloevans :cheers:

Hi guys . This is my first race so this will be a test run or pre-season...or something like that.
Maybe here or there it's a little overkill for 3 races (example the livery desing or the multiple classes) but we'll see(?) it at the end .

1 Hour of Willow Springs International Raceway - Big Willow (3,96 km); date: TBA

Balance of Performance and Tuning

Standard cars with factory settings
The only available tuning option is the Brake Balance
Because of the two categories the drivers will have to set manually the predetermined BPH/kg for their cars - which is the actual BoP of the car - before the Qualification.
After you signed up, you can check your BoP settings in the Entry list table
There is a chance that the driver has to spend Mileage Points to be able to achive the BoP % !

Liveries

User created liveries only
Please, don't run away... it's not as bad as it looks .

DPi: black/white Gran Turismo windshield banner (if available)
GTD: black Gran Turismo windshield banner
GTLM: white Gran Turismo windshield banner

DPi: white headlights
GTD: yellow headlights

Preferred decal locations
DPi
GTD
GTLM

All of the decals are pre-scaled, (most of the times) don't need to resize them!

I've messed up the links (VP <=> Michelin)

. Thank you, corrected

The peaking decal is the "normal" Michelin logo

So we need a second Michelin logo on the back? is it both sides or just the left side at the back? The guide only shows top and side views. I had to look through some images of past IMSA NSXs to see where the number and GTD decals go, but I didn't see a Michelin one..was from a few years ago I think.
