Well, some adjustments have been made. Sorry for getting your hopes up about the Camaro and Mosport, but we can't use them. I knew I should have seen if everything was ok before I posted the schedule. So, the track change of Mopsort to Trois Rivieres won't affect peoples car selection for those who have already selected their cars. I think the change will be a better balance of fast and slow tracks. Now, I just got to find a car that matches the GT500's pace at Sebring. :)

Definatly  :)
The SuperSnake is faster than the 275GTB/C over an hotlap, so I guess it's close to the E-Type. However the tyres do wear fast on that SuperSnake  :)
We used this car in SJC at the Watkins Glen endurance

So I notice there's a 389 HP and a 519 HP (super snake?) version of the GT500.  Which one we using?

Umm, I believe the one I drove in testing was the 500 HP one, so I guess we'll be using that. Faster is better, right? :) But I guess we'll use which ever one matches up closest to another car. Hopefully I'll have this sorted by this Saturday. That will give everyone a weeks worth of practice. If anyone can give some suggestions as to which car we can match up either GT500 with, then that would be great.

I was wondering about Houston 2007 for a possible venue? Only because it is a new track release last week for GTL. I thought there was an issue with Trois Rivieres and multiplayer races. Seem to recall some problem racing with it from my old SSR league.

hmmmm ...maybe if I get a little high i'll remember  :toker:

We've used Trois Rivieres at SJ in the past and it's been fine.  But there is one thing about it to keep in mind, the frame rate can be very choppy for those with a slower pc, especially if there's a large grid.  I know for most of us it will be fine, but I can't speak for everyone.

If we do switch it out, I'd like to request that we use another canadian track as the replacement.  St Jovite North perhaps.  Or maybe Circuit Gilles Villeneuve (assuming there's a legal GTL version of it).  No Grip also has Edmonton and Vancouver.  Anyone know if those are legal for us?

Hey Peter

   Nope to Vancouver (apparently from codemasters), and agreement with St.Jovite North. I remember Trois Rivieres being hard on machines in rfactor, don't know bout GTL though. Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, is that Montreal in rfactor?

Yeah, Circuit Gilles Villeneuve is Montreal.  They have a GTL version on no-grip.

Yes, if Trois Rivieres is problem for anyone, then we will switch it with another Canadian track. Edmonton is a definate possible replacement, along with Montreal. :)

No, I don't think that will matter. I don't care if we are in the same skin. :)

After some testing by me and some other guys, we have found that the E-Type is a nice match versus the 519 HP GT500. I believe someone also suggested that we use the less powered GT500 because the faster one is tricky to drive. What do you guys think?

I personally prefer driving the 519HP car.

Oh, so do I, but I meant say that we also use the less powered car along with the supersnake, with the E-Type.
