Part of the problem with the RSR is that it's driving characteristics are totally different to a 'normal' mid- or front-engined car like the GTC Fezza or any of the GTC class cars. The M3 is also totally different being much heavier and much more powerful.
The class split hasn't helped the RSR versus 360/GTC situation, but then I didn't expect it too. But it has helped those who wish to drive what are now GTC cars - indeed amongst those drivers the new classes seem quite popular.

To finish first, first you must have fins.  |

I'm a bit surprised not to see more M3s on the grid though (including you).
Yes, well I used M3 last season and I like to keep things different for myself to give me a new challenge every season, rather than sticking to the same car all the time. That and the M3 isn't that fun to drive. |

I think classes work well in S5 - ballast pack seems ok dor GT1, even Lister can be fast a Richard Nevski showed us in Silverstone. Seems Saleen, Lamborghini, F575, Lister and MC12 are on par, while F550 is still a bit too strong. Corvette and Viper are a bit behind. Don't want to be a judge for GT2/GTC class as I'm a reserve there and my attention is focused on GT1 class in this season, but I see Legends Racing dominate. Maybe other drivers are not so active allround and have heavy balla st that keeps them slower.  TT |

Legends Vertigo rules!  GT2/GTC Sprint: GTC - Teams Championship: 1 Legends Racing 35 2 Team Shark 31 3 Kerb Crawlers 15 Endurance Clubmen: GT2/GTC - Teams Championship: 1 Legends Racing 34 2 Kerb Crawlers 21 3 Team Shark 16 Endurance Clubmen: GTC - Teams Championship: 1 Legends Racing 34 2 Kerb Crawlers 21 3 Team Shark 17  Err, we won't get into GT1 sprint or endurance right now... I got the feeling that Season 5 started more lively than Season 4. Seems like ballast pack did stir the things a bit, though I didn't like it at first. Sure looks nice to different cars on the grid.

GT2/GTC Sprint: GTC - Teams Championship:
1 Legends Racing 35
2 Team Shark 31
3 Kerb Crawlers 15 Yep, one 5th place and one third is just unstoppable! I'm not sure it's worth anyone else turning up now, even if the other scoring teams have currently participated in one race each with one driver.  Err, we won't get into GT1 sprint or endurance right now...
...or the GT2 Sprint? |

It's an outstanding record, I don't know how we'll compete.

Guess we need to bash Legends Racing now, as it's the biggest team and not Team Shark anymore |
