To clarify, the Cobra is the AC in standard form.

Have I got entries up to date?

Also updating calendar with dates. Might be a little lull towards this season with me off on two weeks holidays.

EDIT Updated.

Season Schedule


Round 1 - 10 FEBRUARY
Daytona 150
POSTERDaytonaRoad_zpse1096fd7.jpg

Daytona Road Course
43 Laps / 150 Miles


As ever the season starts in the place that begins the motorsports season in earnest - Daytona. A part-oval, part road course is a set up challenge, with cars required to navigate a narrow twisting infield as well oval banking and the tricky Bus Stop chicane.


Round 2 - 17 FEBRUARY
Monterey Sportscar Classic
POSTERLagunaSeca_zpsde2be0bd.jpg

Laguna Seca
60 Laps / 132 Miles


WSC makes a second stop in america with a trip to the famous Laguna Seca track. Narrow, and difficult to overtake on, a false move here will send you into deep sand pits and then of course there is the treacherous and difficult corkscrew to negotiate...


Round 3 - 24 FEBRUARY
HSR 200
POSTERHSR_zps7eebc563.jpg

High Speed Ring
80 Laps / 200 Miles


HSR is another new entry to the calendar, a flat out blast with evocative high banked turns like the old speed-dromes of Avus and Brooklands, but with changeable weather throwing a real extra uncertain challenge into the works.


Round 4: - 3 MARCH
5th WSC Le Mans Classic
POSTERLEMANS_zps8996ef07.jpg

Le Mans 2005 NC
50 Laps / 420 miles

Le Mans is yet again the flagship of the WSC. The 5th Le Mans Classic is now 50 laps, nearly three hours to punish the cars and drivers. It's a double points event as well, which gives people even more incentive to press on and try and seize glory in the biggest event of the season.


Round 5 - 10 MARCH
Monza 200
POSTERMonza200S2_zps33c1b35c.jpg

Monza NC
56 Laps / 200 miles

Monza is now later on the schedule and as a result has an even more pivotal role in the WSC title race. 56 laps of a straightened Monza leads to over a minute flat out in a high speed ride around the historic Italian track.


Round 6 - 31 MARCH
Toscana Grand Prix
POSTERTargaFlorio_zps09fd31bf.jpg

Pescara WSC ~UP FOR DOWNLOAD FROM MY PSN PROFILE!~
80 Laps / 269 miles


The classic Italian road track at Toscana, Pescara, returns. Over 150mph average speeds through the italian countryside with three very different corners making up the track. Could be a title decider, but firstly drivers have to navigate the dark italian night...


Round 7 - 7 APRIL
Spa Sportscar Grand Prix
POSTERSpa_zps98ea257c.jpg

Spa-Francorchamps
36 Laps / 157 miles


Spa is a classic sportscar track, and we start on the sportscar straight for the final race of the WSC season. The majestic sweeps of Eau Rouge, Pouhon, Blanchimont all will play host to a huge finale to the season, with belgian weather also aiming to play it's own role...
 
Maybe I should make them bigger?

By the way, final test including Le Mans 2005 test sunday night.
 
Hey thanks Alex I can see them now. Damn I really must be going blind and need my reading glasses for browsing too :grumpy:

Hang some glasses in your Corvette bud, sounds like you might need them. ;) :P
 
ok, so my understanding is the C1 prototype cars are tuning unlimited, and the GT car's are virtually tuning prohibited?

Nearly, C1 cars are tuning unlimited but no extra turbo's.

Interested in joining Dave?
 
yes very, I love classic car's and the fact the GT car's are so basic entices me, I would want to go with the Mustang or Jaguar, but both of mine have been fondled heavily, :lol:

:lol: I have a legal spare car if required? :P
 
ok cool, well if you feel the kindness trying to get through the cheese grater feel free to send me the Mustang, I will test it and see if I like it,

The Jaguar I have just requires an oil change an engine rebuild I believe, so I think I'm set for that,

👍 Will do then.

My paint scheme will be revealed on Friday

I await eagerly 👍
 
1 Corvette, 1 Jaguar and 1 Mustang,

Are we running le mans without chicanes?
 
Looks like I'm going to be the only Corvette in this

+2 Camaro's and a Cobra. I think SLC may be going in a Cobra or Mustang.

And yes, 2005 NC layout. Also only standing start of the championship.
 
If I can get hold of a mustang before this starts I'll use that as no one else has so far. I like a challenge. If not I'll probably just stay with the jag.

Best version in game. Shame that the old 56-67 layout wasn't implemented in the game. :(

Agreed. Driven it on Rfactor and a heck of a blast. Mulsanne Kink awfully scary however. 50 laps by the way = 3min 30 laps = 50 x 3min 30 = 175 minutes approx ;)
