    Hey fellas, I'm planning to host (sort of) a special Halloween race night. There will be two races, in the darkness. It wouldn't be a proper scary race in the daytime!

    Date: 31st October, 8pm start, One shot qualifying. Race 1 start: 8:10pm.

    Car: Nissan R35 TC

    Tuning: Prohibited (with the exception of the Torque Distribution Controller)

    Race 1: Circuit de la Sarthe 2009 (21:00 start time, 5 time progression) 10 laps.

    Race 2: Nürburgring Nordschleife (20:30 start time, 7 time progression) 5 laps. Reverse Grid.

    Tyres: Racing Soft only.

    Tyres/Fuel rate: Fast for Race 1, OFF for Race 2.

    Prizes: 1st: 5 Special Paints
    2nd: 2 Special Paints
    3rd: 1 Special Paint

    Points: F1 style
    Tie breaks will result in a 2 lap sprint on a random track.

    Those showing interest:

    Should be great fun, I've hosted similar races before you may recall my 24 Minutes of Le Mans rooms before I joined ROOZ and they've been a hoot, even though I know some of you despise racing in the dark!

    Cheers, Jono

    Through testing I've found out that the car is very hard on tyres, and since the track is so long, it would be a nuisance to pit a) every lap and b) on the last lap.

    Yes, it comes with the DLC pack. You can buy a stock one from the dealership.

    I'd love to be in it but won't make it due to time difference. Good concept though, i like it.
