Thanks for racing guys!
I did a 20 min. test run with each of the 3 cars in stock tune and got these results:
Ford 2:12.332 fairly tailhappy
Holden 2:10.081 suited me best and was the last car I drove
Xbox One Holden (CotF) 2:13.207 bit understeering and wrong gearing for the track
Im in. Ill be driving the Ford
me me me, 2013 VIP petfoods holden
In but no car desided.
Gizzie driving Gizzies car, Ishould have known!
Sorry for not responding tonight, coudn't find my headset. Found it now though.
i just thought you were busy boss, the ring next week dont be late
Sponsor is EE Mobile btw as we seem to be putting that in with the cars :)
Turns out EE Mobile liveries are a little hard to make... Will be changing to the EcoBoost livery
(Tbh I just dont have the time to create something new so will be using the Concept design from ford with a few tweeks)
Yeah I'm putting up sponsors so people that don't run their own paint know what is in use, hopefully this prevents doubles.
Ford
"Maroons" State of Origin VF for me
EDIT: Photo from the other thread
I'll try to have the Discount Tire #77 Holden Racing Team there.
#22 Ford
I'll definately be there, still have to decide on a car
Ah crap,HLR just pulled into the paddock! Load the car back on the truck guys
I thought he might, I'll just sell the car back to ford shall I lol
I would like to get in on this:

Hey guys, will there be a live feed in the net????? Tears are streaming down my face. I miss you all and thoses V8's endurance races. Wish you all fun. May the best one win!!
And the winner is ............. HLR
Sorry, something has come up and I will not be able to make it afterall.
Sorry for the delay guys. You couldn't hear me tried a reboot then couldn't get in! I could speak to ciletti and hear bits of the rest of you. Good race but tough going.
Good race did hit the wall badly in the start but I think everybody did at some time.
Concratulations to King Cobra.
I did have problems with my chat device.
Could not speak and did not hear the chat.
Could not hear the instruction,s so hope I did nothing wrong.
sorry i missed it, got home late
We should have a series for this like one a month or one every two months like an endurance series, we all love the V8s and were all into the hour plus runs with them... I could set something up for it.
Could be like over a year we do 6 endurance races at various locations and most miles wins!
In.
i would change up the cars, like the 60s F1 at the ring
We could do that like have maybe:
Bathurst - V8 SuperCars
The Ring - 60's/70's F1
Silverstone - Classic or modern Touring Cars
Lemans - Lemans Prototypes or Classic Lemans
Sebring - Classic or modern American Muscle
Spa - Modern F1
Indy - Indy Cars
Something to the effect of the cars being on home turf, and in that have a lengthy race with Pits, possibly sim damage as the pits fix Aero now and then you can have a winner for each race and an overall winner being the one with the most miles covered (no points drops as those who think they have banked enough mile dont need to race or can take their time lol)
If you like the idea give me a few days to have a think about lengths and times etc and ill post something up
yes
That looks like a good list Snoop, the proto's and F1 will be my weak point for sure. I just can't get my head around the fact that you must go faster to keep grip in the corners.
Say 1.5-2 hours with damage, think we can wear out a set of tires? Anyone tried to race the drag tires in FM5 yet?
Giz what do you use when you host, party and game or just game for the chat? I had no trouble hearing or speaking on the Wednesday I was able to join you.
