Chaps if you haven't already done so I suggest you watch Chris Harris on cars this week.

It's fing epic!

Spa 6 hour in a falcon and the old touring cars for less the 2.0 and pre 66 cars iirc

Awesome!
That is awesome Dice. Love a Falcon, it's my aim to race maybe a Falcon Sprint in historic touring cars at some point in the future.

Would be great to get some pre-'66 racing with you chaps at some point, done it a few times on the public rooms and it's great fun. 480pp on comfort softs or sports hards.

Hope the championship is going well.

That was indeed some awesome Chris Harris stuff! That Alfa looked like it was incredible fun!
I think most of the combos so far this season have been pretty classic stuff on modest rubber. But then I find sports softs far too snatchy & unprogressive, these cars are meant to be slid alittle sound every corner hehe. I'm delighted we seem to be enjoying more of the wealth of older finely balanced cars there's some wonderful chassis about :-)

Pretty sure that the furai is not sendable but will check later. Spec is standard will oil change only and racing hard/sport soft tyres.
If it is a problem for people to get then I will go with 2nd choice of the citroen GT race car instead, still at the gp f circuit, again running in standard trim with oil change and racing hard/sport soft tyres.
If it turns out that everyone cant get one in time for this race, carry on looking for one because I will pick it one day!

Table updated on p1.

Like either combo Drc - i have both but I dont think the furai is sendable, thinks its over a mil.

I think Flip will struggle to get a car unless he starts b-spec but thats a bit of pain. I havent bothered with b-spec since i had to restart the game.

looks like there are issues with everyone having a Furai so will use the citroen GT race car instead. will use the Furai another day when everyone has one.

For those of you who have used/seen others use the gold chrome paint job in gt5 I saw this for real on my way home tonight.

It was like a big gold mirror and totally hideous, especially as the car was..……











A merc ML…. Nice!! hehe
