I demand a re-vote. After all the moaning about the Touring Classics and how hard some (all?) of these have become to drive we dive straight in to a new season of them  |

1: I agree, it was not my 1st choice. Can be changed if required. I can go with it or not.
2: I am going to some trouble to choose tracks very carefully that I can drive at least one of them at.
I tried the little Beemer at Daytona, and it was not a difficult drive. I also tried at Laguna Seca, which I assumed
would be undrivable, but I can get round in the little beemer, so anyone can. I picked that car because it is the
most popular, and to me the most awkward. The others are not so tough.

Don't go changing it Matt, I'll pick something I find easier to drive and hopefully enjoy it a bit more.

Matt, could you let me know when you have finalised the 3 race schedules so I can post them at S3 forum, cheers. Probably too late to change now, but would it be possible to run the WTCR series as 2x20 min races with reverse grid for race 2. Don't know what others think. If it is too much hassle just ignore me |

I can go with it or not.
+1 - I'm fine with running them all over again, but equally happy to go with something different this time. Probably too late to change now, but would it be possible to run the WTCR series as 2x20 min races with reverse grid for race 2. Fine with me. Is that how the real series is run? |

I forgot about 2 shorts. I don't think it will be an issue, I just create another event same day
It has to be at the same track though.

Actually the real 2019 series had I believe 3 races per event. But Matt has based this on the 2020 Calendar which has the following races: Salzburgring Race 1 - 12 laps, Race 2 - 15 laps Nurburgring Nordschliefe Race 1 & Race 2 - 3 laps Slovakiaring Race 1 & Race 2 - 9 laps, Race 3 - 11 laps Hungaroring Race 1 & Race 2 - 12 laps, Race 3 - 15 laps Aragon Race 1 & Race 2 - 10 laps, Race 3 - 12 laps Adria 3 Races distance TBC |

Today Sector3 released the 2020 Lada Vesta TCR as a free-to-play car in its own series. Should we include that as an option together with the WTCR19 cars, provided the BoP is about the same? To give a free option to people who don't own any of the WTCR19 cars.

If it the same speed, then we could do yes. Someone faster than me needs to do some testing |

So I tried the Lada at Salzburgring. Stock setup, no changes. My best time so far with the WTCR19 Civic is 1:27.196. After a couple of laps, I was able to do a 1:26.966 with the Lada. Seems it's a bit faster than the Civic but not remarkably so. Competing against the AI cars driving the WTCR19 field felt roughly the same as with the Civic, I wasn't pulling away anywhere and could outbrake them in roughly the same spots as before. According to R3E, the Lada is supposed to have 40 extra hp and weigh 150 kg less? Sure doesn't feel like it. Maybe that's left-over from when they had it as a WTCC 2017 spec car? Or maybe that's the hp you get when you run it on 100% vodka. Apparently Geoff had the same idea, at least I was faster  . |

I get that sort of difference in the various 2019 cars depending on what I had for breakfast. I will do some testing myself as well.
We can do 2x each event, the server can do 3x I think. but our results system only does 2 at the moment
I think 3x might be too much for one evening, and, Dave would need to modify his code to allow for 3.
