Hello,
I would like to start a GT3 series similar to the world renowned Blancpain GT series. There will be a calendar similar to the real one, with a sprint race and endurance race.

THE RULES:

-Clean racing ONLY. If you see a reckless driver, please record some footage with Xbox’s “record that” feature and send it to me.

-Rear wheel drive cars only.

-TCS and STM will be forced off.

-Upgrade cars to NO HIGHER than R840. There will be a limit in the lobby to R840.

UPDATE:

Remember, everything is subject tot change, so input your ideas/available times below.

Races can be held on Saturdays or Sundays, in the mid afternoon. Maybe the first race is on Saturday, and the second on Sunday. I am in the Pacific Time Zone, so maybe a race time of 5:00 Eastern?

Again, let me know what works for you.

You guys decide- should the AWD Lamborghini cars be allowed?

I’m Interested, but I don’t use Facebook.

UPDATE #2

There will be a testing weekend next weekend (The 26th and 27th) at Catalunya GP, Hockenheimring GP. and COTA GP. This will allow you to get a good feel of your car, tune the car, and will test various disciplines, such as speed, acceleration, braking, and handling. There will be two on the 26th (4:00 Eastern and 5:00 Eastern) and one on the 27th (4:30 Eastern). If you can’t make one, two, or any of them, it’s no big deal.

Also, There will be an 18 minute practice session and a 13 minute qualifying session before the Saturday races, and one 13 minute practice session on Sunday races. The grid for the Sunday races will be the reverse finishing order as the Saturday race.

You will not be allowed to use the AWD Lamborghinis.

You can use the default livery for the cars, but if we find two cars on testing day with the same livery, one will be asked to change it. Whether it is a custom or storefront paint does not matter.

Any ideas? Message me or tell me below

Do you have a time planned for the actual races? I am not sure if I will be able to commit time both weekend nights to racing or not but am extremely interested in this series. Any chance you would want to run the races back to back on Sundays? Sunday evenings would be best for my schedule, but obviously I don’t speak for everyone!

Also: I support the AWD Lambos being out.

Just as a thought, it may be good to build a facebook page or something for people to group up on just to get an idea of interest and also make it easy for everyone to communicate.

Interested, depending on time and dates.

UPDATE #3

I have moved most of the information to a website. Here it is: http://racingclubmanager.com/club_home.cfm?club=1076
It is still under construction, but it should be done either tonight or tomorrow.

In the top left it should say “RACINGT”. If that is there, click on “Ask to Join”. Fill out the registration, and in the description box at the bottom, tell me your car and the days you can race. You can write about the prompts, but you don’t have to.

ALL INFORMATION will now be on the website, so check it out.
