If you miss a race and can't find a sub, then sorry but you miss a race, everyone else still comes on and takes time out of their day to take part.

Ironic you say that and you changed it from a dropped round to no dropped rounds.

Not really, we as a group wanted to update the entire rulebook to keep in check with the popularity of the series, and ALL 3 of us wanted to remove the drop round.

As I said, you can still have a sub, I don't see what the issue is here imo.

There isn't an issue with having a dropped round at all, allows people who might join late to still have some fun and maybe stand a chance, and we as a group? You just said it was 3 people at first that are backing the idea.

I thought this series was all for 'FUN'?

If people join late then that is not on us, also when I said "as a group" I refer to the THREE people who are responsible for this event.

We don't make a decision unless all 3 of us are in agreement, Trash has overlooked all areas since the Staff will have no involvement in its running.

*edit* Whilst I agree upon the aspect of " drop rounds stop punishing those who may miss a race" by doing that on the other side of the coin you are punishing those who put the effort in week after week and can make each round.

This is NOT a TORA founded event, remember guys, this is something we're running for fun and from someones else's idea, I do not feel right changing things against the owners wishes because people don't like where things are different from the TORA produced events (ISCC/TCC/GT).

It's a community event and you don't listen to a suggestion from the community.   

BG Wumba wrote:It's a community event and you don't listen to a suggestion from the community.   

I am listening, but what you are forgetting is this is someone else's series that only one or two of the community want to change, what I say is the opinion of more than one person.

I'll say it again, we discussed as a group, and agreed as a group, sorry but that's how we felt best to organise it.

Let's just move on from this if anyone has a valid reason as to why a dropped round is needed then drop me a pm.

Lets talk about the racing now.

GT is certainly getting more and more popular I would rank it 2nd to Touring Cars in terms of entertainment with the WEC next then F1.

Hopefully there'll be less crashes than in real life

I don't see that happening, especially in the lower lobby's!!! it's bad enough in slow cars let along the faster ones lol!!

all good fun though!!
survival is the main aim!

n00b question, I apologize, but during the process of building cars, the build guidelines specify handicaps on certain cars. What exactly do these handicaps do, and how do I build them into the cars? How do they work? Does the car builder have to install the handicaps, or is it placed on the cars in the race lobby?

Any help regarding handicap implementation would be fantastic, because I have no idea how it works lol Thanks in advance.

The handicaps are for certain cars that have a PI boost via horsepower or if like one is a GT1 R2 Car to bring it down to R3 where it is balanced.

Because we can't pick and choose 90% of the GT cars engine upgrades and can only remove its restrictors, doing this and adding a Horsepower percentage means it is easier to equalize.

To add these handicaps just go into a race lobby, go to car settings, scroll down and you'll fine them at "Power Restriction, Grip Handicap Front/Rear"

Thanks a lot! You're proving to be quite the accommodating host, Warspite haha

The porche doesn't get to 765 just fitting race brakes am a doing something wrong?

I'll have a look when I get home but pretty sure its 765 with brakes, maybe driveline too, ill check the build regs and the car in the garage and let you know dude.

Cheers mate ave prob done something stupid

Rim style maybe? if you have no tyre widths on ect, then maybe you downgraded a car you already have in a higher spec.

Some bought light rims are heavier than the racing rims on the car itself, may be worth having a look bud.

Is it the build as the tec at silverstone?. Becayer its 765 and has tyre wodth and driveline?

Should be the same build yes, if its incorrect then I'll have a look.

The Porsche listed should be EXACTLY the same as TEC 13 and the last season of ISCC, so if the parts arn't listed then I apologise and will get it checked and updated.

Cheers for notifying me though bud.

No ptoblem just didnt want get the build wrong

Thanks, Appreachiate it!

would anyone be able to make the racing text from this livery?

(this is just me) I have a small concern if TORA GT Season 11 will have enough intrest when another GT series (this one) just ended. Chances are im wrong (and hopefully I am)

It will, unless this one is far better
