rules will be the same as normal TEC rules, will post when its ready to go, and other rules, will run (i think) the same as the ISCC 2.4 hours of le mans, just around the Sunset Peninsula Full circuit and with these cars.

so what do you guys think?

no zonda. like the nissan idea. I wouldn't have thought of that

May be hard to gather interest with the VLN & Nurb 8 hours coming up.

yea, i thought that too, but i'm just like usuing to show people i have it in the process

the nissan is nice! and why no zonda?

I'm interested, too bad you couldn't use more of the PGT cars. Or even the Rolex GT class??

it was really hard balancing them, and all so i decided to stick with the gt cars on game that are in the race, plus a few more

where are the rolex GT cars? or do u have builds i can use?

found someone who has really good grand am gt specs, and if he allows me, we will be using them

if anything, you can pull up the build rules from the Rolex Series and just mimic the cars to their actually specs. I did this before and the cars seemed to be very close

do you know where? would it be on the grand am site?

i would assume so or just google rolex GT specs

I tried that bit it only gave weight which half the cars could reach, HP same story, Rome size etc but it was too difficult to balance, HOPEFULLY I get the specs from the guy I asked

hmm, what i did is i took the most recent GT enrty list, created a rough HP window and weight window. what helps equalize cars alot is the HP to lb ratio. have a set number for that and you got a great starting point.

But first thing is get all the cars started with a basic race upgrade. if you want i can work on the car list with you?

Sounds good, I had one, I'll look in the morning and see if I saved it, and we could work from there, because I tried (rushed effort) a power to weight spec, but even then the Audi n Porsche were at least 0.5-1 seconds quicker than the camaro n mustang
But if it's done right it should work

yep, so i know there is:

Audi R8
Camaro
Mustang
Corvette
RX-8
BMW M3
Porsche 911
Ferrari 458
Dodge Viper

I'm new on here but I would be up for this. If I had the choice of car I would take the corvette ZR1

no zonda because it doesn't really look like the DP cars. The nissan does.

yeah drop the zonda, the R390 and MC12 should be good

The Mosler looks most like the Corvette Daytona Prototypes, and has a most similar drivetrain and engine.

My take would be the production Nissan R390 and the Mosler, upgraded to somewhere in R3, with the GTs in mid A Class. It may lose the Vette and Audi, but the Corvette's days are numbered in Rolex GT anyway.

I had mosler n ultima but they were way to quick so I started gt1, very nice! I was gonna use the Porsche but its 2-5 seconds a lap quicker. There's also infinity, m6 (won't use) and something else

I'd be up for this

When were you thinking of running this,and would we need to be in teams or privateer???.

You can have teams, but it won't be like VLN where you change every so often, you run the 2.4 hours on your own, but you can have multiple team mates in the same car, but individual drivers, make sense?
