Next AC Series - starting end of April/early May

[Mark J]

In lieu of a new championship series starting late April/beginning of May, interested to hear what the majority would like to race.
We have new gt3 cars in the mix with the exciting f458 and RSR joining the already great car line up.
 But we also finally have 3 Grp C cars to pitch against each other. If the BoP is out we can maybe add some ballast to any clear lead car type.
Or we could run a single spec series using one car type...porsche 962 springs to mind as it is a fantastic car to race with and has a great set of custom historic skins available.
Group C races would be an hour long for majority but might splash a longer event or two in it if possible, not sure yet.
A trackday car series was tempting to add but truth is I just don't have the time to test enough.

So anyway, just vote and post comments/thoughts below

GT3 for me, the Group C's are just too different to get them the same.

I prefer road cars, but I know I'm quite alone in that 

[Linus27]

Yep, GT3 for me as well.

[ChrisR]

group C for me any day!

im sure we can bop them reasonably similar.

[Stefan aka Postal]

Group C's for me. Proper race cars these and there are ways of balancing the championship a bit.

[Bob]

Group C or road cars, only my input.

[Mark J]

Dont forget that whilst one grp C car may have a speed advantage at some tracks that same car may be a complete handful on a twistier circuit. I would expect drivers to stick with their car choice for the series so no hopping Into perceived race winners at each track. Problem is as I'm away I can't do any testing so if any of you guys with spare time can run some legit tests at a variety of tracks that would give me good feedback. Can pm it if would rather keep your times to yourself.

[SRW]

my vote goes for GT3's

How is that fun? That way you fight on paper and not on track. Each car need to be competitive on all tracks,  or else it's just boring.

[Mark J]

Eh? That's the real world of racing! If you make a slippy car that's great on straight line low df circuits then you expect to take a hit on twisty tracks! Or vise Verda   ..just ask red bull or Williams  
I'm not convinced the c9 will fit at all personally but nice to be proved wrong  

Votes 6-5 in favour of gt3 so far anyway. I'm happy with either but love be the idea of a great grp C or 962 series

I'll take the C9 if no-one else does, found a couple of decent and 'fixed' skins for it recently - If I'm honest I'll take any of the choices if they're under-represented just to ensure a decent grid. Don't think any of them aren't fun to race..

I also fail to see the point in a championship that allows cherry picking of cars per race, completly removes the point of the competition if the track choices are suitably balanced

Totallg agree, should be one car per champiobship wifh maybe one change allowed after the first race. Its not like theres not enough chance to test the cars.

Maybe do a "fun" race beforehand to have everyone test the cars and see how any balancing works out.

I just tried them out at Montreal 88 and Monza 88, forgot how much tracks have changed since then  far more colourful advertising back then! Only thing I didn't like is the high kerbs, don't know if anyone has modded them better?
Watching and hearing these cars in the replay gave me goosebumps

Paul Ricard and Adelaide are amazing Mark.
