Being new to GTR can some someone tell me exactly what cars are allowed here in GTC. I notice a couple of Ferrari's a labled GTC. I am sure other cars are within this bracket. Sorry if this an obvious question.

Best way to see which cars are in which class is by selecting JUST say GTC class in the UKGTR tab in game....the only ones that show up for selection then are the GTC class

Never really run on this configuration before, wasnt it the one the DTM used?
After a few laps i can see this is going to be a busy race with little time for a rest. Havent quite worked out the line through the strange chicane onto the back straight, without any curb on the inside of that chicane its going to make things interesting.

I do believe it created a fair few crashes.

i hate this altered circuit configuration The chicane through the sand traps at the top of the hill is going to cause all sorts of trouble. One wheel into the quick sand will effectively end your race as you will lose so many places on such a short silly lap. There are only two real overtaking positions, one at each end of the two straights in heavy braking zones. Turn 1 saw plenty of contact in an R2p race i had here as people attempted diving up the inside only to T-bone the car on the outside as they attempted to take the racing line. Its more suited to slower classes or cup-type events than GT cars. Still, should be a frantic no-let up race, Qually will be busy !!

Cant get to grips with this little track....I fall off far too easily (nevermind saying 'what's new' )...so I can see myself getting no further than the first few laps then simply sitting there watching everyone else go round.....and round.....and round.....and round zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I can't make this one either, have fun.
We used this track a while ago in an Elise fun race if I remember correctly.
Was good fun if a little hectic
