back marker or up front its about taking part right

Exactly! In the end SOMEONE'S got to be at the back (usually me) otherwise it's going to be very hard to have 60 cars abreast for a photo finish Wink

Plus, if there is a "prize" in store, it might not go to the champion this time Wink

sod it im in for this, just need to find a team and work out how this forum works Wink

Fellow FMUK'er here lol!

Hoping to enter this for my sunday night racing fix through early 2013

Could possibly be looking for a team to join for the enduro and sprint series.
Im no stig but I race fair and rarely miss an event I sign up to.

If I do go solo It will be a completely new adventure, Never touched a race class cars tune or build much. Quite like the charm of that whole build it and do my best thing.
But in all honesty im far too competetive and would prefer to drive the nuts off a car I know works Wink

If you fancy doing enduro, I can put you in my GT4 car I have planned!

If you want to drive the Viper, you are going to have to go on my waiting list, that is if you have the DLC.

But trust me the GT4 car I have in mind is super fast

by DTR Rock Thu 6 Dec 2012 - 2:34

Looks like a solid series. JP is already stoked for this! We just have to figure out how it all works. He might even be looking to join a team if anyone would have him! He's really picky about his cars though. Should be fun. Smile

If people knew how quick JP was you'd have a queue of team owners outside your front door - if anyone's got a spare seat in this series I'd definitely recommend trying to grab JP while he's still 'free' Wink

I'm still looking for GT4 drivers if anyone wants to join!

Thank you for the consideration. I would prefer the same car through both series and dont have the viper yet. Its a shame as yours is just the type of drive in a team i am hoping to find.
Will keep my eye on your GT4 just in case.

Worse case i will run a small privateer outfit and see what i can do.
Hoping to find a nice match to my driving out of the audi, bmw, fezza, merc or jag.
Porsche is the one i really fancy using and will look at season 9 data for tips Smile

well let me know if you change your mind or decide to go privateer in Sprint and want to go GT4 in enduro.

either way my door is always open

Looks like team sparco will be making a foray into TORA and expanding its racing capabilities beyond FMUK.

Will try and get the race budget together for us to field a car in the gt4 enduro and the gt3 sprint events

im tempted to run enduro purly for GT4 cars

not massively keen on initial nissan gt4 car feel but have a feeling it will be good once tuned

by XPR Roadrunner Sun 9 Dec 2012 - 17:25

me likes the no car swap rule!!!!!

thanks TORA!!!! (im not jkn)

Here is the current car list put into some numerical perspective. Power-to-weight ratios, lateral G's, theoretical top speeds, and an interesting stat, lateral G's times that theoretical top speed. The second page is the changes I would make. My revised list would use four groups, a -15% power group, a -25% power group, a -30% power group and a -25% power group with a -5% front and rear grip handicap.

Green means a change is going to be made. Orange means I don't have that DLC. Red means remove the car.

EDIT: It has been update. Green = 0% Power Restriction, Yellow = 15% Power Restriction, Blue = 25% Power Restriction, Orange = 30% Power Restriction, and Red = Remove.

by Adder 020 Mon 10 Dec 2012 - 7:08

The list is maybe to think about testing by several members from different clubs, I guess.....

by F4H Drake Mon 10 Dec 2012 - 7:57

The list is to show that, at least statistically, it is possible to get the cars closer together then what is currently being used. Also, it is possible to run all these cars together using all four groups available in a lobby.

Are we using drag tires for this series?

by RumbleBee 392 Wed 12 Dec 2012 - 14:47
