Like this?
Ya but more orange-ish, yellowish running further back on the car, and on a black car.
I need to see what I have going on but this does sound interesting
so......so far the entry as follows:
Shepard831: #831 Aston Martin
EarAcheMyEye66: corvette
JuanDerecho:
anyone else?
What time can u start, official race starts at 7
So after looking over the options, I think Im going to have to pass. With half the cars being DLC's which I dont own and the others on the expensive side for a one off race and even then the only car I coiuld race in would be the 1955 Porsche 550 Spyder. That said, I do hope the series gets going though.

I can send you all the cars below if you want them Ghost?
The Spyder and the Testa Rossa are good cars for more than just this race. Pricey yes but very versatile. I can send you the Ferrari if you like. Evryone should own one.
I would love to get my hands on the Testa Rossa so if you offer still stands, I would greatly appreiciate it. Thanks
If I can remember, I will run this ( dog willing).
sorry everyone but i just found out i will not be around to host this race. sorry!!!
ya getting kicked off the forums ? the world ends before it starts? momma says you can't play anymore? The race has some good things going for it and sounds like a lot of fun.
Just postpone until you can do it.
Going away on a business trip, I will reschedule it once I get back.
