Title: Would there be any interest in monthly Tuesday night GTL action? Post by: Wiltshire Tony on August 04, 2016, 01:15:30 PM +0100 I'd love to run some simple format GTL races, say one a month, to be held on a Tuesday night. If we receive enough positive response I'll move this on.

I play Badminton Tuesday evenings (when I'm not hindered by Tennis Elbow or any other problems..), so depending on start time, it might be impossible for me to make it in time.

Post by: Wiltshire Tony on August 04, 2016, 01:33:41 PM +0100 That's fine Erling and exactly why I introduced this poll. I'm just testing the water ATM. I'm specifying Tuesday nights as that's the only night I can do and it doesn't clash with any other of our series.
An idea of a preferred start time would be useful. ;) Title: Re: Would there be any interest in monthly Tuesday night GTL action?

An idea of a preferred start time would be useful. ;) Normally I should be home around 20:00 CET and about to grab some dinner, so in principle I should be able to make it with our normal start time. If I'm delayed however, things would tend to get pressed. If you could set qual start to 20:30 UK time (21:30 CET), I'd expect to make it most times. One other problem though, would be that I'd have no time to practice between our regular Monday race, and the special Tuesday event, unless I go straight to practice right after Monday's race, which could be a bit much in one evening. I'd try to find a way to make it work though, if this becomes a reality. Cheers, Erling Title: Re: Would there be any interest in monthly Tuesday night GTL action? Post by: Wiltshire Tony on August 04, 2016, 03:02:22 PM +0100 I would try to use familiar tracks or very easy to learn ones (ovals etc) and all races would be with single spec cars (maybe two specs if needed). And as these races would be one per month I'm sure praccy wouldn't be that much of a problem ;)

Not offered as a choice but Thursday's are good for me. :D TTFN John. Title: Re: Would there be any interest in monthly Tuesday night GTL action? Post by: Wiltshire Tony on August 04, 2016, 06:43:14 PM +0100 We could do away with qualy altogether or shorten race lengths to say 30mins (or 2x 15mins races).
Title: Re: Would there be any interest in monthly Tuesday night GTL action? Post by: SpecialKS on August 04, 2016, 08:00:31 PM +0100 Should be ok for me. Maybe we can reach some of the former GC guys?
Title: Re: Would there be any interest in monthly Tuesday night GTL action? Post by: EvilClive on August 06, 2016, 08:35:21 AM +0100 I would love to join in, but Tuesday is also a regular weekly UKGPL race night.
The times for UKGPL are 8:45pm for qually and 9:30pm for race start, so I would be pushing my abilities to switch from GTL to GPL so quickly. There is definitely a different style of driving required for these 2 sims and a sudden switch could be a problem with bad consequences. If the times that are selected for the GTL races work out, I might try it and see how much I suffer in GPL. Title: Re: Would there be any interest in monthly Tuesday night GTL action?

Title: Re: Would there be any interest in monthly Tuesday night GTL action? Post by: Wiltshire Tony on September 09, 2016, 12:32:20 PM +0100 I'll close this topic now. I think only five is a non-starter.
