Well, let’s put it this way - the SR4L BMW M1 season will need some research to find suitable tracks. We could put together an F1 70s Style season pretty quickly - [USER=379]@Mauro[/USER] has a list of contemporary tracks (plus [USER=10]@DJCruicky[/USER] ’s League Spa ) for starters…

*i* think the format of the Trans Am worked quite well - Fun races and Feature races using the same tracks but flipping the order and having Sprint and Super Sprint fun races…

Wed 1st - Watkins Gleb NC http://Watkins Glen

Great fun to drive and open wheelers are just cool in VR. Still a big gap in lap times atm.

Love the variety of cars

Count me in for a season.

(At least) one more week of F1 70s style on Wednesdays - this time at Rouen. Hope to make a decision on a league very soon.

Wednesday 15th - Brands Hatch GP v1.22

[Myles (Mr Fox)]

Wednesday 22nd will most likely be at http://Spielberg Historic NC v1.2 to test the updated armco collision meshes provided by [USER=10]@DJCruicky[/USER] - last time we raced at the track (that I'd removed the chicane from), cars kept getting stuck in the armco.

[Myles (Mr Fox)]

Possibly the final Wed Fun round of F1 70s style...

Our version of Spielberg Historic No Chicane.

It would be nice to try the Radical SR3-RSX cars at some point.

Could maybe take a look on the 29th… or the first if you prefer!

There is no 29th Feb this year, only on a leap year .

I did give the option of the 1st if you didn’t fancy waiting….

Right - a suggestion has been made - and accepted - to keep with the F1 cars and league tracks and to run the same track on Wednesdays that is about to be run on the Sunday. Extra competitive practice for the League drivers and maybe a bit more participation in both.

Awkwardly, that means we will run Spielberg NC again this coming week. Personally, I’m quite happy with this as I had cracking fun on Wednesday and (for reasons unknown) we had a very low turnout so not many people should be put out by the repetition.

I’ll also publicise it on S397.

We've chosen the '86 Brands version from this mod:

It's a huge mod - you should be able to just connect to the server and get the Brands track on its own though.
