    I am looking for drivers of all skill level for testing there is no timeline on when this needs to be done the main thing is to get the BOP right
    I am open to suggestions and other drivers ideas for the up and coming series meaning rules tracks distance and how many rounds and so on
    All ROOZ drivers are welcome to take part in testing and have their voice heard for a 2 class championship Pro & Pro am
    It will be best to leave testing to the clubroom so times are recorded from each individual driver (leave the sand bagging for when it floods)
    It will also be very appreciated for the testers to assist one another in tuning as some will be better than others
    More news and information will be provided in the near future or on request
    Thank you and I look forward to be seeing you out on the test track

    Depending on the success of my LMP1 series starting tonight I was actually going to use those cars and make a series!! You've beat me to it!!! By the way the "LMP1's" go under the class name of Group C ;)
    Depending on how soon you want the BOP to be done, I may or may not be able to help.
    Also with Tuning off, I recommend doing all your testing with BOP using default tunes :thumbsup:

    Yeah I notice that they're not called LMP1 and falls in the category of groups C Prototype :thumbsup:
    Why do you recommend BOP testing be done with no tuning :cautious:
    And are you suggesting running the championship as tuning prohibited o_O
    There's no rush or deadline required it's more about getting the cars even ;)
    I know we are all dedicated to different Championships on ROOZ and Gtplanet
    So any testing would be deeply appreciated :thumbsup:

    Nope, im all open for the series to be ran with Tuning open, it is your series after all!
    But i think if you get a setup for one car perfect during testing, and another car has had just an ok setup, then the laptimes may be incorrect as one has a far better tune. Where as if you do them all with the Default baseline, then the cars all have a very equal platform to run laps on and get accurate data for the BOP :thumbsup:
