nice to see the Praga getting some love... its a terrific car! i did a race at Brands Hatch once and it was a blast. i think silverstone could be a bit "dull" in this car though, as it lacks topspeed but looking forward to this race nonetheless if i have the time, i will join this race |

Zandvoort is a rubbish track with only 2 good corners. Brands' high speed corners makes it almost impossible to overtake with these cars.
Silverstone is good fun in these things, fast corners to enjoy the grip and Maggot and Beckets is loads of fun chucking it in.

I agree with Jeffrey about those 2 tracks, I personally hate Zandvoort ( look at that Dutch nationalism  ) I always thought Barcelona was an ideal track for these cars (as is Mugello ) though Silverstone shouldn't be that bad, some nice spots for great battles. |

Have to disagree, Zandvoort is an amazing track apart from the stupid chicane at the back end. My first races in the Praga was at Brands GP and the racing was amazing. Its my go to track for these cars. I like Silverstone, its just very flat and not very challenging. |

this car leaves me a bit 'meh' all those nice beastly Grp C cars and you choose a tame wannabe that sounds like a dyson  its not bad but not that exciting either.  plus it likes to turn around a lot  |

Also, everything is tame far from the limit . We did the group C's twice, second race only 4 showed up. Don't really see the point in poking a dead horse. this car has been mentioned in the past, so might as well give it a go. |

I think the Praga will be a good race and would actually make a good spec series if the right tracks are chosen.
As for the next championship, I can only see a handfull of decent option,
GT3
Porsche 911 GT3 Cup Spec Series
Porsche 911 GT3 and Cayman GT4 Multi Class
Spec series (MX5, Cayman GT4, Lotus Elise, Praga, Single Seater etc.)
