    I really like this idea, the only thing is , the front wheel drive car's will get frogged off the line by the BMW. Are you planning on some test nights ? Coz I'm a definite in .

    Yeah we should do some testing and see how the cars go against each other.

    You might want to look at just the front wheel drive ones as that rear wheel drive BMW will just walk away from the rest of the cars or make it have to do a extra pit stop

    I'd likely miss any races in October if you put them off, no big deal as I expect to be in last place anyway! I've bought my mum and nephew tickets to fly over from the old country and have a month with us during October so I'll be dropping the racing to see the old girl.

    I've done a few race's with these car's , and it look's like the BMW will have to be banned .
    It just walk's away from the start line , look's like the other three witch are really close .

    What about if we had to rotate car selection each round and last place in previous race gets BMW in next race?

    Only problem with that is if people are having a bad race will they make sure they finish last to get the bmw. So might be safe to just run the fwd cars.

    did a little test session today around Donington National in the 3 cars I have available to me and found them to be all very equal in lap time. Date was 29 April 2018 11am with weather set to light cloud just did a 20 minute practice run with AI set to 90% Renault 1.11.326 Merc 1.11.320 and BMW 1.11.400. these where my best times after the 20 minutes
    If any is able to do a similar test and see if the three cars come up similar this will determine if we can run all these cars. I think there is a dlc available too (which I don't have too much of a tight ass) if some one can test this also to see times that would be great happy for it to run if people have it.
