It shall be glorious, put me in there. Would it be possible for 15 laps at Eiger and 15 at Monaco/Cote`d Azur ? Just an idea i have, but it`s fine as it is also.
 
Kwazy Karts, sign me up please!

Any big differences between the Kart models?

40% starting surface water, does it dissipate or is it through out the whole race?

Cool we get to show off our avatars :)

I've been doing some practice laps, getting to grips with the track. The track is completely dry after 23 minutes, and my best time is 1:13:938. There's probably a lot more time to find in the first sector. I'll try resetting the conditions to see how much slower the track is... EDIT: About 10 seconds slower, though I haven't put together a really good lap yet.

Aw man, Portugal-Germany, Brazil - Argentina...equals me not making it this time. Take me off the list, thanks. Have fun may the luckiest driver win.

When you say 'No tuning allowed', does that mean we can't change the gear ratio?

I've managed to get just under 1:14, but doubt I'll get any further than that... The jump is a total lottery too :)

It's a setting in the lounge menu. When ticked you'll have to have everything on default. Suspension, gearing, mods etc.

No race today. Next weekend is the 24h of Le Mans so if we are going to do a race it is either going to have to be before or after.

count me in. It feels like its been awhile.

If you get me Toxa, Nab and Seattle in there that should give you some good practice for the finals.

In fact, in honor of you making it to the finals we should race with cars and tracks that will help you out. What cars and tracks did they use last year?

A pre-GT Academy GAF bootcamp, I like it!

You won't learn much from me though, I'll be near the back/at the back.

Haha, they have people behind you as you race and they dock points if you hit someone + gain a position.

But they ran some random tracks last time, mostly in Reverse too..

Like Deep Forest, Trial Mountain and Madrid.

We are going to do a multi race format for RounD. I will set up the race post tomorrow. Cars will be all Nissan. So make sure you have every Nissan GTR or Z from the dealership.
