So following the death of this championship http://pistonheads.com/xforums/topic.asp?h=0&f...


The new idea is basically as follows;

On a given night one manufacturer is chosen i.e. Mercedes, the only choices are obviously Mercedes for that evening.

The races will be roughly 8-10 laps round 3-4 tracks per night (more if everyone fancies).

The racing will be split between A, B and S class racing hence the title.

If the number of people can't be equally divided into the classes we get it as close as possible, if they're not enough people to warrant 3 classes we'll run 2 instead.

When a race is over you move to the class above and when at S you return to B after your S class race.

Everyone still following?

Any mods will be allowed, so people with aero and handling tunes will be up against power tunes and we'll just see how it goes.



So whose in? driving

Glad to see someone is interested! And not a problem, it's not a championship just a casual fun time based event, days of the week still to be arranged!

Sounds like people with upgraded cars will run away with it. A nicely tuned B class car can give some S class cars a run for their money.

But there is nothing to stop people downloading a leaderboard tune to keep up etc.

I won't be doing it because I prefer my own tunes, but anywho it's just an idea for now.

If you run standard cars then it should work? smile

I'm in!

So just to clarify, a manufacturer is picked (eg, Mercedes) so we then make sure we have at least 1 merc in class A, another in class B and a third in class S. and the race itself would be a multi-class race?

Sounds good!!

That's essentially it, but they'll be at least 3 races per night to ensure everyone has a go in each class and the manufacturer will change each week thumbup

So tempting to use that mental E28 M5 I had for S-class, but it's a right handful laugh I know I have some classic BTCC replicas for A class, so just need to sort a decent B class out.

Hopefully I can hear you in the lobby better this time Tom, not sure why it's so bad in lobby but clears up fine once we're racing hehe

I'll be up for this tonight, might be on nearer 8 though depending on work.

So to clarify, we need to have 3 BMW's in class B, A and S and they can be different cars, just as long as they are all BMW's?
