Spectator again this year. Stupid work arrrgggg. But I will be helping out with the setup and what not.

 

[Tom]

I'm interested, I only own the Corvette and Ford GT though - I would need to buy the track too.

 

[ramiboo]

Hey man, I think I not going to be able to do this. Too much going on the weekend before and after so can't commit time that weekend to it. I maybe able to do 1 stint if you need some overnight cover. I'll also help where I can with practice and setup.

 

[Bassetts]

Endurance race you say, you know my answer

I have the track and the HPD, happy to pick up the GT1 or GT2 cars if that's our preference.

 

[Alex du Plessis]

Do I even need to answer. Just need the HPD if that is the way we are going otherwise need the Ford, Aston and Corvette but thinking back the HPD is the route to go.

 

[Dutchtastic]

In the past week I struggled a lot with the cars and tracks that I've driven and tested. It's been a while since I've been on iRacing and the hammer has struck (-300 iRating) and I'm struggling to keep pace, consistancy and the car on track. Since I don't have the track and car I won't start purchasing / learning the HPD or LeMans and focus on learning the GT3 cars and tracks I do have to find back my pace and consistancy.
I'm a liability and I know you guys don't mind a slower, inconsistant guy, but I do not trust myself enough to run an Endurance event of this scale to put you all through the practice, testing and races for "nothing".

For now my focus is on pCars league and test-running GT3 on iRacing. But as always, if you need help... I'll be right around the corner. #Road2theGlen&Spa

PS: If there is a team that cannot stream, let me know and I'll run it for you guys

 

[Tom]

Personally I would prefer to drive in one of the GT classes. I enjoy the slower classes more in these events.

 

[Yorkie_065]

You know I'm game for the HPD!

That car looks so horrible. It's like it's already had a crash!

Oiiiiii! How dare you

 

[Dutchtastic]

If that new Ford GT LM GTE was in the game, I'd drive that 24/7, just because the RSR scheme would look awesome on it
Too bad iRacing is slow when it comes to getting cars done

Same here, but mainly because I love that car

@Dutchtastic I think you failed to see why Masa posted that in the first place lol. 2 cars coming for the June build rumor has it. Let's hope it's true.

 

[m4nu]

I want the Porsche 919

Ferrari GTE must be one of them
Doubt that Ford allows it

 

[Gxbbs]

Doubt that Ford allows it

Any why is that then?

 

[falcon2081]

@Dutchtastic you could be very well surprised.
