Maserati, Porsche and BMW are DLC (BMW from FM4 Limited Edition)

All cars must have 4 doors and 8 cylinder engines.
All cars on list have raced or are allowed to race in the official Italian/International Superstars Series (Holden as Chevrolet Lumina).
No other cars will be permitted.
Use of the HSV w427 over the GTS was to limit the use of DLC.


The Livery:

Number boards have been made for the series that are almost the same as the official ones used in the SuperStars series. Will work on full templates if the series goes ahead. Until then I am happy to gift over the vinyl group.

* OZFM Super Saloons number boards will be provided with numbers in the font to be used. Numbers can be scaled to fit but must not extend outside of the number board. Number boards must be positioned towards the front on the front doors. Another number board needs to be placed on the roof.
* Window Banner is not required but if used it should be white with the Super Saloons text on it. (may feature on template)
* Hankook are the official tyre supplier. Logos must be places left and right on the front and rear on the car. These logos are provided.
* Pagnian Imports plate must be positioned on the rear of your car where a numberplate would normally be placed. This plate can be positioned anywhere on the front but not essential.
* Wide bodies, vents, carbon fibre, side exhausts, etc are allowed.
* Replicas are allowed as it is based off a real series.
* Non Painters: Feel free to have a paint made for you by another member. Team up and run a similar livery. Purchase some vinyl groups from the Storefront to make a race design.
* A full Storefront Design can be used but you must submit that design for approval. If the race number on the design is different to your own that race number on the locked livery will be used for only this series. Liveries for the SuperStars Race series are available on the SF and will fit this series.
* Usual livery rules...
... No tobacco (banned in Australian motor racing)
... Nothing explicit or offensive

This is only a draft. Decided to post it up before I forget all about it, lol.
Feel free to build and test the cars as well as adjust the tyre width and engine upgrade to even the field without too much more power to the already powerful V8's. While these will be race cars this series still needs to be competitive and fun.

Just a heads up - a number of the guys online have been looking at builds for a V8 CotF series, it includes most of the cars on your list.

ill have a chat next time i see you online

OHHH! Me like!
in either CotF or the original idea.

I have a great idea.... Let's do both series
This one looks pretty good though
I've always thought the superstars series was pretty cool

I'd be interested in this depending on when the series starts. I'm committed to the OSCC series and don't want anything to clash.

Right now this stand alone series it is pencilled in for a Friday Night series as it is the only series I can commit to due to work. As for the CoTF series you will need to contact those involved with that series.
Unsure when it would start (if it does) but the main focus at the moment is to even the field without going overboard on power or sacrificing the handling they currently have.

Nice idea.

They be very different beasts then.

I wont say too much as it isn't my series, both would work well

hi, i have already made up every car on that list (except e63 merc instead of c63) and some more for a car of the future series. all cars are up in the club garage they are all s680 to s700 all full race drivelines n aero etc, all matched in performance and all 600hp or more.. dont know if you saw these before you posted this info up but we started making these early last week, on about the 10th oct. I was going to post up details over the weekend but got caught up with moving house etc.... I will post up some details n organise some practice runs shortly, but initial feedback from recoil, clarkson, stik, ssempr, stonedkiwi, Mr ggggg etc is good!

Lets go racin

Giddy up, these are tons of fun. Lots of power and handle well.

someone drop a time trial track suggestion so we can cram some laps in all the cars until this kicks off?
Laguna Seca anyone?

Low 1:30 in the maserati

i have not had gold for a few weeks but i am getting it soon and i like this idea sine me up
