Hello fellow racers, we at SRN/Seasoned gamers are running a new series. It’s based on GT3 and GT4 race cars, and should be a lot of fun. Unfortunately our forum is not allowing new sign ups, so I have a thread here and there and will keep up with sign ups from both. We’re a (mostly) friendly group of experienced racers, and we do our best to avoid contact, please have a mic and headset so we can communicate during the race. If you have any questions, please ask, and I hope to see you on the track!
This will be a six week series, dates and tracks are:
1/6 Suzuka full
1/13 Mugello full
1/20 Brands Hatch GP
1/27 Silverstone GP (light rain)
2/3 Nurburgring GP
2/10 COTA full (night)
Races will begin at 9pm EST
(lap number will be posted soon)
All cars will have PI between 790 and 800, these are the required upgrades for every car:
Race Brakes
Race Suspension
Race ARBs
Race Roll Cage
Race Transmission
Race compound tires
Race Aero front and rear
All AWD cars MUST be swapped to RWD
No other drivetrain, engine, or aspiration swaps are allowed
There will be a maximum of three cars allowed for each specific model, if we get a large sign up I may change that to 4, so please pick your car as soon as you find what you like. You may change cars at any time prior to the first race, provided the car you want to switch to is available. Once race 1 is run you will not be able to switch cars.

Ballast:
This series will have a ballast system, you will gain and lose ballast based on your finishing position in each race. You must start a race to lose any ballast points, a DNS will not affect your ballast score.
1st: +1.00
2nd: +0.80
3rd: +0.60
4th: +0.40
5th: +0.20
6th: =
7th: -0.20
8th: -0.40
9th: -0.60
10th: -0.80
11th: -1.00
For each full point of ballast you will receive a 5% HP penalty, which will be applied in the lobby. The maximum amount of penalty you can receive is 15%
Race Procedure:
Each race will have a 10 minute qualifying session to determine the grid, please do not leave the lobby before the session is over.
Races will begin with a pace lap and will be a rolling start, the starts will be called by the pole sitter
Each race will require 1 pit stop, pit stops cannot be made on the pace, first, or last lap.
Liveries:
I have no specific requirements other than, please make sure your livery looks appropriate for a GT series, i.e. IMSA, World Challenge, and has your number on the car. So if you find one you like on the storefront with a number that hasn’t been chosen, go for it.
Please sign up with your gamertag, desired car number, and desired car. And please add me, RRR flight602, as a friend on xbox live, and make sure you are showing online on race night
This will be crossposted on the Forza forums, I will do my best to keep both posts updated
