Just wondering what you all are on about doing next season class, car or team wise.


for me personally

If I go down the GTC route I will run an Aston Martin V12 Vantage again, but will probably attempt to find people who also want to run the V12 Vantage next season and create a team together.

in GT category not sure yet have not looked, all I know is that one way or another want to be part of a team (never experienced it so want to try it out just didn't feel right joining a team towards the end of the series)

but still unsure on what I want to do for next season all I know is that I want to take part in it.

so what is everyone on about doing for season 8?

now that would be good a McLaren team setup going down and would be more than happy to be part of a full british racing team especially with a driver as good as yourself in that team.

I've been jumping back and forth with the idea of GTC or GT, personally I find GTC more fun just because the option of more street cars. But GT class has a few of my favorites. As far as car choice goes, if I'm in GTC all I'm revealing is it won't be the Spirit R next season...love it to death, but I've maxed out the affinity on it a long time ago and I love getting free money for just racing. I do have some very competitive cars for GTC I'm considering, but it also comes down to personal favorites that I won't get bored with halfway through the season (I find it the only way that keeps me motivated is driving a car I absolutely enjoy). As far as GT class goes, I'm basically down to 2 choices...one P car and the new Viper (main reason is I love the cars to death, I'm actually faster in others, but it goes back to actually enjoying driving the car)

i would love to run the McLaren... but for some reason that car is just not that good in the series, which is a shame, but i do like the Aston Martin, especially now you seem to have that thing hooked up, i watched the replay and watch you for a good few laps in races and the car can handle with practice, but'll see closer to the date

I am going to stay in GTC. I thought about stepping up to GT in the 2013 Viper but think i will stay with the production cars. What ever i drive will be american. I have been testing alot and have a few cars that hold potential. My GT500 is starting to come around so that is also an option.

i'm staying with GTC, even though i just started in time to make Laguna Seca lol. I need to see how the Opel does in an actual race, I ran it through 25 laps at Laguna to tune it, and it seems to be pretty competitive. I like using cars that not too many other people would use but are still competitive, so if not the Opel, either a Mazda RX-8 R3 or a Mercedes 190E. main thing for me is acceleration and grip.

I would love to see the RX-8 in competition in GTC.

thanks! Very Happy

the car has tons of grip, big fat racing tires with an engine only around 310 bhp allows that to happen. low gear acceleration is great as well, i can get her up to 105 between turns 2 and 3 at Laguna Seca if i run it right. the only concern is top speed. 5th gear it starts to slow down on the acceleration, i have to keep tinkering with the gear ratios. Since Laguna Seca really isn't a speed circuit, it shouldn't be too much of a concern.

Not sure what class I'll run next season. At this point if I stay with GTC I'm eyeing the 911 Sport Classic. In GT I'm digging the Ferrari 458 Challenge.

The RX8 is an excellent car, I would've used that if I wasn't dead set on using my actual car in the series. It runs very fast times.

Not gonna lie, in Forza (4 and 3) the RX-8 has seemed like a big fat heavy flabby piece of garbage.

I will probably do some testing after Lauguna but right now I haven't decided if I am staying in GTC or moving back to GT. If I do decided to stay in GTC will I re-sign my contract with Blue Oval Racing. It been great racing in the Ford GT and my teammate is great but we will see how it plays out. Right now our focus is to try and stay in the top 5 and make the last push for a Podium finish.

Im not trying to be an butthead warpig but here is some advise man. Try not being rude to everyone, stop telling people how to drive, stop complaining about everything, and try being nice to people all the time (not just when you want a paint or a tune). Then people would stop making fun of you, and just maybe they might want race with you. Treat people the way you wanna be treated.
