Being new to GTR can some someone tell me exactly what cars are allowed here in GT 2/3. The Porsche 911 cars seem to be clearly marked under GT 2/3 I am sure other cars are within this bracket. Sorry if this an obvious question.

When selecting a car in the game for offline practice, race etc select the UKGTR 'class' - this gives you GT1, G2, GT2, GTC, GT3 and G3 as classes (plus standard and skins). If you right click on one of them and then go to the model selection you'll see what's in what. I've a feeling you can select all of them (left click each class's radio button) and then read the classes on the model selection, but I'm not at a machine I can check on and I might be wrong (it does happen occaisionally ).

Dave by not indicating in the Race brief, I take it the tyre and fuel usege is set to normal, unlike Nurburgring where it was x2 and x3 I think.

Correct, it's very rare we use anything other that x1. I think Shark only upped them for the test/fun race to ensure we all had to pit.

300-500 is optimum. More than 500 and it starts to fade off.

300-500 is optimum. More than 500 and it starts to fade off. If you havent already locked up and gone straight on I've tended to run a high duct which helps prevent locking up but its tended to mean i've not got anywhere near those temps. Running with a low duct and those temps means its a bit more tricky gauging it and locking up! I do prefer running this circuit configuration compared to the butchered, more recent versions. Any ideas on peoples times?

I almost always run 3 brake duct. Never need to change it for anything.
