The trans am series sounds the most appealing to me. It's something we haven't done before and there's a nice mix of cars.
Mixing the muscle cars with things like minis should make for varied racing and allow people to be creative with tuning depending on the regs. Keep it c class though.
Was chatting to Andy last night and apparently the minis will wipe the floor with everything. How to get round that I've no idea!? Perhaps a performance handicap? 350 instead of 400?
The Mini needs its own series and a set build which will definitely happen as I really want to enjoy the mini but can't due to it being a leaderboard car extraordinaire.


Like the sound of a series with muscle cars in C class and happy to work with others to come up with an idea.

BTCC VTEC NO NIGHT

Monday 26th lobby open 9pm

Rules are the same as the BTCC with the exception that all VTEC Hondas Acuras and Kia are banned.

I will allow the Kia with a bored out motor and I'll also throw in the Peugeot 308 to play with.

Names below please

I'm in. Haven't a clue on what I'll use. Maybe the Kia as it's set up pretty well already and have a play with the 2.0 non VVti engine. Sunday will be my build and test day after the F1 biggrin
If not I'll hop in the Megane for a giggle smile

The Kia can only be bored out to 1.9 but I'm giving it a whirl. My PI is down to 589 and can't get it higher without breaking the weight or power rule.
Just done a few laps of Road America and it's sooo much nicer to drive although slower on the straights. Managed to knock a few tenths if my normal Kia time and into low 2:23s instead of mid to high 2:23s

I haven't been keeping up with the thread, is it alright to hop on on Monday? I'm assuming there's a fair chance of not everyone turning up.
