    In reference to the Bathurst 12 Hour multi class idea, Rooz is the home to Australian Gran Turismo Endurance Racing but the game isn't ready. The Bathurst 2 Hour was an endurance race co hosted by myself and JonoStan between different years, we allowed all Gr3 cars to be used with tuning.

    More to the point, The amount of effort put in to achieve parity with tuning enabled cannot be underestimated, it took me months to get anywhere close, and there were still outliers. I do plan on bringing those races back however lobby settings currently aren't ready to handle it.

    Best of luck with your event Apex, I would enter however I will be in Bathurst.

    The G4 was the ultimate pig, it honestly may as well not have a steering wheel.
    Slide BB to +1-3. Brake earlier than the BRZ which you could stomp on late. Got keep it balanced and braking smooth. It is more stable. Makes you appreciate the skill of the pros getting the Mustang around the mountain. Pace is almost identical to BRZ for me, just quicker and slower in different spots on the track.

    IMO the mustang has a great Bathurst mix and feel between big bulky heavy and modern V8 power. It’s a great wrestle around this track. And it doesn’t hate the dipper:) My biggest disappointment is the nurfing of the 2013 Nissan Gtr Shultz as I loved that thing around here. Now it’s :poop: compared to what it was. Bring on the STANG

    It would be awesome to fill the grid, but 11 would be a good race, and 12 with you would be even better. Hopefully a few more entries come and maybe we can fill the grid. Order of entry applies, so your in, and you will be as much chance as anybody else.

    Provisional Handicaps with grid order updated in the OP. Will definitely be some adjustments. I do not know ROOZ driver pace as well as 18 months ago. But I think it is very close. Have made allowance for the cold tyres at the back of the grid.
    Bring on the critique.
    Would be good to run a half distance race this Sunday, so if anybody is keen for a spin, I will open a room about 7.30. Send a friend request obviously if we are not already.

    You just lit a light bulb in my head. Tomorrow night is NRL GF, being a sports nut I will be watching it so no half distance race tomorrow night.
    Maybe try to do it midweek.
    Sorry for my memory brain fart.

    do you have a time in mind? Earlier the better from my perspective. I’m in much need of beauty sleep.

    I would be available and keen for a half distance race starting at approximately 6.45pm (AEDST) if that is not too early for you. If you are, I will open a room at 6.30pm.

    Also a shout out to @Ozglenn in case you have missed this and would like to race, sorry, I overlooked you raced in Year1.

    I will still open the room at 6.30ish, but for an approximately 7.05pm start as that seems to suit best.
