There is a second GT3 BMW, will that be allowed to run?

Due shift work, I'll attend as many rounds as I am able.

I also know a few others who may be interested, do you mind if I pass this on?

Yes, I will add the extra BMW.

Pass on any info you wish, I will be adding series info onto the official Project CARS race planning forum midway through the RUF Cup.

Awesome, I know both frog and Nicho don't mind longer races, plus a couple others too

That m3 BMW is actually a GT2 car, only reason they put it in the gt3 class is so it wasn't on its own

by **Neilo05** Wed Jan 06, 2016 7:58 pm

Ok, the BMW M3 GT is out. More then enough cars to choose from anyway.

You should probably remove the Aston V8 Vantage GTE as well then (the one from the DLC).

Another reason for the removal is the year of the m3, compare the v8 vantage GTE against the others

Just a heads up I think x3 tyre wear is too much, you'll be putting every 8-11 laps or something on softs. Forcing ppl to run medium/hard tyres.

after reviewing both the m3 and the aston more in depth I can say that they will be allowed into the series

by **Steeljockey** Thu Jan 07, 2016 6:24 pm

As far as I was aware, both the vantage GTE and M3 have lower power but better aero, so can run fairly equally with other GT3 cars.

Anyway, I normally run the Merc, but with all the tyre changes the last few months, it has struggled, and I've been liking the M3. Either way, it's a few months off yet, and there are more changes to come, after a reversion later this month to the original tyre physics. So I'll wait and see. But I won't be running the McLaren!

by **Sly Dux** Sat Jan 09, 2016 3:35 pm

Will take Bentley pls

by **Neilo05** Fri Mar 25, 2016 9:59 pm

Calander is confirmed, this series is only running once a month for 6 months. Hope interest will stay until the end.

We have done this to give members time to adjust from normal sprint rounds to the longer 2 hour races with opportunities to test good pitstop strategies as tyre selection will be important.

We can then keep running normal 5 - 6 week series in between this endro series.

Confirming that there will be overall championship and class championships. You will be awarded points where you finish into the overall championship then points based on where you finish within your class championship.

You will have to use the SLS. Please choose the car number mate that you will use. We won't choose that for you, next time your on pCars have a look and let us know.

Also head over to OZFM License and choose a license that will suit you. For reference on race pace I'm in Pro-Am and doing 1:21's at Ruapuna whereas Elite will do laps around 1:18's. NOTE you don't have to choose Elite if you don't use assits you can still choose a lesser class if your race pace is not up to Elite drivers times.

Correction to this, you will not need to choose a licence for the Endurance Series as classes have been deleted and we will not be running licences at the moment on any Project Cars series run here on OZFM.

We have decided to run a Manufactures Team Championship in conjunction with the Drivers Championship.

You will need to choose a licence though if you want to enter into any Forza series run on OZFM.
