Its going to be a copy pasta orgy!

I suspect, at least in Production GT, that a few cars will get full very very quickly

TORA GT is going to fill up quickly.

I really want to put in for the registration tomorrow when It opens but currently there are only 2 of us registered on the website can I add drivers as they get back from holiday and register or do I need everyone registered on the site before I can submit my britcar team and car choices?

Register the team as a whole, just remember to get them to sign up before the 24 Hour race

Anyone excited for sign ups opening?

+ 60 000

All hell is gonna break lose in 10 mins >.<

And it has!

got my car for my team

come on the clubman teams

There's one in the pipeline and on its way Duncan

Only 2 Clubman cars is disappointing, and we didn't realize how popular TORA GT would be what with having a series dedicated to these cars. There have now been Class Caps implemented, and there is only one TGT spot left.

All I can ask, is that people try to get as many other to join this race as possible. Spread the word through other communities and the Forza Forums as it is sure to be an epic race.

We need more clubman cars

yea, was thinking that, i didn't think it'd be that empty, hopefully we get more clubmans because 2 classes that are so similar wont be as fun

24 Hours of Le Mans was fun with only 2 classes.

Im sure more people will sign-up in the clubman class.

if they are serious about going to brit car and recruiting people AND going to other forums such as VM, GLR, IFCA, ForzaMotorsport.net, etc. I am sure you will get a whole new lobby worth of cars

I personally prefer it with just two classes but they will fill the Clubman if TORA place the entry caps as suggested. It will force people to enter Clubman as TORA GT is already at 17 of it's 18 entries and Production GT is pretty full. If they open up more lobbies it will just create more Production and GT entries, which will mean a lower 'mean' average of Clubman cars in each lobby.

Either way, if it's a tenth of what Le Mans was it will be epic!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Corwin, let me know if any of the AAR guys wanna run some testing together with OcR over the next few weeks, it will be good to catch up with you guys again

Le Mans worked really well with 2 classes, but the speed difference between the two classes made it clear who was the faster car and it was just easier. If TGT and ProdGT were the only classes there isn't a huge speed difference and it would fell a bit less multi class IMO, as I know some of the fast ProdGT cars will be racing some of the slower TGT cars. The Clubmans give us the slower class to navigate around.

I realise though that Clubman isn't popular and we will look into either improving it or something before the race. We have a month to fill the lobbies, but if there aren't many Clubman cars to split then they will have less people to race when they are in the lobby.

Is it gonna be 3 class lobbies?

Ideally, if we get enough entries.

Its a shame more havn't picked the clubman class. Those cars are a hell of a lot of fun, and pretty well matched.

We picked the P GT as a break from the full on Race cars.
