As Spanner said in this thread, the current plan for AC here is a GT3 series alternating with some cup races. The cups are going to be 2-4 races long and either single make, or with two cars to choose from. I have plenty of ideas for them already, but I'm always interested in hearing what everyone else here would like to race as well. So if you have any suggestions for a cup or a one-off race, post them here and I'll have a look at them. I can't guarantee that we'll end up racing them, but there's more chance of me noticing them here than if they're buried in random race threads.  |

Personally I'd like a retro cup series or two to provide a different experience to the modern Gt3 series you intend to run. Something like a BMW E30 cup and also a RuF v F40 cup series. Or a Ferrari challenge series using either just F458's or F40's or as Goldtop ran earlier, a different Fezza each week on a different track but that means learning and mastering lots of cars maybe. One of the more succesful races was also a group of Lotus cars at tracks like Donington. Heard good things about the Ginetta mod too so could run a Ginetta cup but the Lotus cars would also make a good single spec series. Choices choices |

The "trouble" with AC is that there is so much choice. We have a pretty even mix of racing preferences here between modern and retro so might be an idea to try 2 nights of AC, one for GT/modern race cars and the other for retro/road cars. Just an idea?

Would be good to get some single seater action in as that type of racing is always inadequately represented across leagues imho.

How would you feel about one of the cups being endurance length races? That is, in the 60-80 minute range with pit stops. I know that's been done here before with the UKGTR Endurance series, but with these races being on a Wednesday, would that still be possible for you guys?

I personally would prefer an occasional enduro with pit stops, makes for more interesting racing |

Me too. Btw, can you set an off-line race lenght more than 10 laps? |

Not sure about endurance during the week, but as long as the race has started no later than 8:30pm then it's possible.

Not yet. Actually I think you can but you have to go into options and disable fuel consumption. Then you can do longer than 10 lap AI races offline. |

Just to clarify, I love endurance. |

I reckon we should do modern and retro races on seperate days as well.
I would very much like to see 60 minute + races as well, but only if there is a large enough attendance.
