Race Class Series?

I've thrown this out there a few times and I'm curious exactly how much interest I might have for a race class series. The idea would be for each series we would choose a class (GT2, GT2, DTM, V8 supercar, etc) and race those cars. I think it might be nice to enforce no upgrades and no tuning so that everyone isn't scrambling to make 2 tunes a week. Tracks would be dependent on the series of interest, with more laps. I would like to do damage/tire wear as well to bring some strategy into the fold. If there is interest we can do a trial run... so if you would want to run this series vote in the poll!

There wasn't an option, but the only one I'd be leary of is LMP 1 or 2. I just can't drive those cars worth a lick. Just too fast for me I guess (that's not to say I can drive the Aussie V8's either, but once those start moving, it's not AS hard).

Sorry... prototype(1,2) is LMP 1/2. Thats most of the R1 Le Mans Prototype cars. And true those are tough some of the newer ones released w/ car packs (R15 audi and Aston AMR 1) are a bit easier IMO. I'm thinking either way we would start out with something in R3.

My mistake on not being clear. I understand that Proto 1/2 = LMP 1/2.

My issue is I can't drive those cars "well". I imagine I'd be one of those "griefers" as I cannot handle those cars. Won't stop me from participating though. I cast my vote under "any".

Id be up for any of these classes. I particularly enjoy the V8's and the DTM cars. Especially trying to drive these cars without traction control is a fun challenge...most of the time.

I'm in for 'any' as well. To keep things simple in terms of scheduling, why not just add a quick 5-10 lap event after the normal club event for this month, to see how it goes?

I would be okay with that. Sounds like it will be between DTM and V8's. We can decide between them when we get there.

As long as I can use Traction Control, I'm in... Like Marm, I pretty much suck in most of the higher PI (R2-R1) cars. I conform to the saying "It's more fun to drive a slower car fast, than a faster car slow!" or in my case, "It's more fun to drive a slower car fast and well, than a faster car really fast and into various obstacles and other cars!"....

Just to be a nag, I will be dropping out of this then. The races themselves are already pushing me past sleepy time.

Can do before, or another day, I'm easy Just thought since we were there, it would be idea to see how things go.

I'd love to jump in. It seems that this club runs at a different time than I do. Staying up late isn't an option for me. I'd love to. Until I hit the lotto, I'll just continue to nag (unless I get booted).

But if before if feasible, I'm game. On another night, I'm game. But after the club races, I'm out.

Yeah running a series after the club races wont be an option so we would probably do Tues or Thurs in the future.

I agree with another night.... Tues/Thur works for me as well... I'm working on getting my butt in bed earlier as well (meeting with very little success thus far BTW...)
